<div class="IPBDescription">where do you ppls shop for gamez?</div> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=10&t=44969' target='_blank'>This thread</a> made me wanna go old game shopping, and I was wondering whether there was a good, reliable place to find game bargains online... I always thought <a href='https://www.chipsbits.com' target='_blank'>chips and bits</a> was supposed to be good, but I went there, found 4 pretty cheap games, and saw shipping would be like 12 dollars. I could get a 5th bargain bin game for that shipping price... <a href='http://www.amazon.com' target='_blank'>Amazon</a> is generally more expensive, but at least their shipping's free... anyway, anyone know a good cheap site to order comp games from?

I'm spamming my own topic, but fyi I just found a good alternative using google's similar pages feature. <a href='https://www.gogamer.com' target='_blank'>gogamer</a> seems cheaper than chips+bits, and cheaper shipping too... they don't have system shock 2 though :~( but still, 9 games for 70 bux, including shipping! =P now THAT's shopping. 7 of them are in compilations, but still ...

Personally I use <a href='http://www.play.com' target='_blank'>play.com</a>, but methinks that's only for us normal (i.e, British) people.

On the posative side, their games are about £10 cheaper than the shops.

On the negative side, their games normally come out a few weeks late. (and games usually come out a few months late in Europe ANYWAY <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo--> )

...checked the site, and realized I'd have to do that whole £-to-$ conversion deal, and didn't even bother chexing to see if they ship to the US... but cool beans for you normal people <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
