I know this came up in an earlier topic, but I just wanted to make sure you NGPC fans don't waste your time or money with Telegames. I'm not sure about Telegames UK, but Telegames USA ***DOES NOT*** have any UK copies of Pocket Reversi in stock. They are all Japanese. I e-mailed the sales department at Telegames and was told outright that the games they had were European.

I went ahead and called to be sure, and a very nice telephone representative called the warehouse to check and then called me back with the bad news. She was nice. The e-mail sales person wasn't very professional and was certainly ignorant to his company's stock.

My experiences with Telegames in general have been crap.

It's common knowledge you don't get a bargain with Telegames. If it looks to good to be true with them, it is.

UK Telegames is the same, i think someone from the forum ordered one thinking it would be the UK Edition and they sent him the Japanese version! I think he got a refund!

If you really want to buy from Telegames UK, phone them first and confirm what they have in, which is not a lot! <img src="graemlins/veryangry.gif" border="0" alt="[Very Angry]" />

I know... but i saw some Telegames reps at the Las Vegas CGE show this year (a couple of surly old dudes with shitty attitudes) and I bought a new NGPC Last Blade UK version for $30. Shock!

Every other dealing with them has been crap.

the world would be a better place is things like customs and VAT were wiped off. There's probably a small postoffice in Scotland with a box full of pocket reversi that wasn't picked up because the VAT was so high, and the recipient figured it wasn't worth it. ;)

There only one company worth buying from, good honest fellows who's reputation precedes them -

Finnil's and Echo's NGPC Emporium Incorporated Limited Company is the only place to go!! The Director, 2D, is such a nice guy!

Ya know, we must have typed that at exactly the same time........ even telepathic at our office. However, being the Director, i have felt a tad like a middle man recently. <img src="graemlins/spock.gif" border="0" alt="[Spock]" />

Not bloody far wrong on that one, i did have another were i got 20 Cherry Masters for £60. Got a good profit on that in the end. :D

The bribe was an ounce a' snuff and an old tin of sardines i found washed upon the shore......

Is it obvious that i am currently a tad bored in work? <img src="graemlins/loco.gif" border="0" alt="[Loco]" />

Hmm, to be honest, i would say ignorance. His reserve was £55 so i offer quite a bit more and he accepted, nuff said. Both parties happy and him none the wiser....... ;)

Nope, although i think he may have a games store or something as he was selling off other gaming stuff. Maybe he picked it up as a job lot. I asked him if he could get anymore, but he said no. :(
