Yeh it was in last months edge as well.
I ran them up about it asking for some info.
turns out that if you want to purchase the games above seperatly without getting the system [ which most of us would] you have to pay the rrp of the carts which was £199.
hahaha
i just laughed at them.
thanks

When u rang them Kenshiro9 they woldn't allow u to buy the games at the reduced offer EVEN if u bought one at those ridiculous prices?

If thats true they need reporting to trade descriptions for the advert clearly states that u can buy one game at there normal price and get the second one at the reduced price.

Although with the prices ur saying they charge for these games there doesn't seem to be any saving at all.

BASTARD Telegames burn in the fires of Hades while the Wookiemeat urinates on your charred embers!!! :mad:

Ex Demo AES Machines? £150? I dread seeing the condition those things are in. Telegames NEVER sell ANYTHING off for cheap. If anyone is dumb enough to buy one of these, then god help them.

I recently spoke to a guy who bough one of their £150 systems and the comments were not good. He said the condition was awful and that the stick he got sent was filthy and faulty, when he complained they refused to refund the item (I am not sure how hard he tried and he did not know much about the Neo).
He might have just been unlucky, but from what many people say about Telegames this could well be the case with all of them.

Just goes to show if something seems too good to be true it undoubtubly is.

Telegames must have a lot of stock which is just gunna lay idle in there warehouse because of those inflated prices it just makes my blood boil! :mad:

I've just gone and looked through the price lists on the Telegames website....I cant believe how expensive some of the consoles are on there!!!!!! a Sega saturn for £99!!! megadrives for over £50!!!! ! ...its like there still in the shops...and production!!!! ....i'd rather just go to the second hand shop near me and get a Saturn for £25!! !! ...

The only thing i would contemplate getting is some Lynx games......

Are Telegames very reliable ??..easy to buy from??....

If you are dealing with Telegames, just bear in mind that if you pay buy CC then check your statement cos they will overcharge you.
They will then tell you that the extra was for "processing your order" or some other shit.
If your goods arrive damaged or faulty then dont bother complaining, cos they'll have your money already!
If you are ordering something at a "special" price, then expect to be told its "a mistake" or "needs updating" or "out of stock at that price" etc,etc. And dont quibble this, or you will get a load of rudeness from the asshole that answered the phone (finally)
Do expect to be lied to, to be cheated, to be dealt with in the kind of patronising and condesending way that would get the twat belted if you were face to face with him.
And dont ever, ever expect an aftersales service!

At least thats what happens every time I've ever tried to do business with them!
