Testing my stupidity

[Sawtooth]

I think I'm too soft by half. My sons a bit of a Star Wars freak and he's been part of an online community for the past year for a game thats coming out in the US this week, Star Wars Galaxies. He's managed to convince me to trust his US friends to get it for him...Ho Hum...

Well lets just see if his internet "buddies" come through.....its his Birthday present riding on it and I make a point of never paying twice for anything.

good luck! fingers crossed, yet you never know with the interweb really. they may yet amaze you

 

[adams901]

doesn't that game have a monthly subscription fee?, you paying for that as well?

 

[Embattle]

You're not stupid...just a sucker

 

[old.RedVenom]

Sucker.

Although occasionally people pull through. I'd like to think they do...












HEHE. Who am I kidding?

Now, if it was a forum goon... we all know they're uber reliable.

I was going to say that most US-only releases can be got from Canadian online stores, dvdboxoffice.com being one of them, I used to use dragon.ca but they seem to have dissappeared.

Even with P&P it rarely works out more expensive than a UK shop street price.

Hence why I said Computer Games Exchange, they do loads of import games, and will be getting copies by Thursday afternoon/Friday morning.

Oh well I live and learn. Yes I'm paying his monthly subscription (deducted from his spends). But hell his whole world is crumbling around him if he doesnt get this.

Half of the posts aren't even in english.

I'm sure I felt a hemorrhage brewing while reading that.

Its a bloody liberty. Not only that but with my son and I both wanting to play it thats double VAT.
