Every single store in the UK are rip off merchants, your best bet is to buy from the US, as even after shipping its still cheaper than what those english bastards sell the games for inc ebay :)

VGI are the pick of the bunch, but Lee is right, most of the time you're better off buying from outside the UK.

I wouldn't buy anything from CEX without being able to check it out in person first..
(can't be bothered with a full length CEX rant tonight.. ;))

no wineing about any shop just shop or the site thanks
I'd have thought some comments about the stores might be a little helpful.. I'd rather know how good a shop is before dealing with them, rather than going in "blind". Oh well.

haha, perhaps if I had some better contacts and a boss that actually likes to spend money advertising.. basically I'd have to do ALL the donkey work, so I don't bring the idea up too often ;)

looks like there is not too many shops that sell these games in the uk. looks like well all have to stick with ebay.co.uk and snipe each other to try and get what we want :angry: :p

Btw, if you search eBay.com and contact the sellers, even though some of them state in their auctions US only some will ship to the UK also:)

What's wrong with raven games?

x-electrical in croydon seems to be improving every week (stock wise), i actually feel guilty for not buying anything from there.

Just don't buy from loaded consoles, if the prick is still around. You can find him in your mags from about 3 to 5 years ago.
