Ordered DMC4 and Bully from GAME on 26/3.
Shipped on 27/3
Delivered on 2/4 - no customs duty.

Took about 7 days from the day I placed the order.

Game's got a buy one get one free up for PSP games. Just ordered MGS: Portable Ops with FF: Tactics free.

Yup. You won't believe the kind of sh*t games here that get 500+ pages of discussion, yet some gems get ignored

I think we should add HMV UK's store (www.hmv.com) to the list of websites we can order from. I just ordered GTA IV SE from there at a discount of 10GBP. Will need to see if they are actually able to deliver it, but they use the same service as GAME (Royal Mail).

^^ Then again it's a flat fee, so if you order two games, you'll still pay 5 pounds...

^^ Nope. Certain items are exempt from customs duty. Unfortunately video games, movies, music are not on those list of exempt items.

unfortunately, my copy of Eternal Sonata ordered from GAME took 10 days to reach me ... the customs guys opened the package, the invoice was taken and then package was sealed with ducttape and then tied and sealed with sealing wax ... fortunately no damage to the disc ... and no customs duty ...

Guys, how long does it usually take for an order to arrive from GAME?

Ordered 2 PSP games (MGS: PO and FF:Tactics)on the 21st of April, it was dispatched on the 22nd. When can i expect my stuff?

Also, n00b question: is there any discernible advantage with shopping at GAME over PA (apart from getting PAL stuff at one and NTSC at the other)?

Yup. You won't believe the kind of sh*t games here that get 500+ pages of discussion, yet some gems get ignored

there's no real advantage over PA....orders can take anywhere from 2 to 10 days from Game and ShopTo (yup, i got a game from ShopTo in 2 days

)
