Trying to buy a gift, making a type in the CC info, going to buy again, forgetting to click the "It's a gift", buying it a second time as a gift to finish the trade. Happened to me, though I was on the fence on whether to buy it for me or not, ended up keeping it.

Maybe he bought two games instead of one, because he forgot to remove it from cart?

I don't know, but on Amazon, for example, it's quite easy to make 1-click buy, this is why I don't store my CC info on Amazon...

Don't go to East Germany unless you want to see the Third Reich in action, or at least idiots who think it should be reestablished (although Berlin should be fine). Just google for Verfassungsschutz Thüringen. And there was an article in some magazine recently (either stern or Spiegel or Focus) how "Neo" Nazis overtake whole villages, including police. Might have been Jamel in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

And don't get me started on where most nazi mass murderers worked after the war... (Police, Secret Service, Government)

That's more or less why I asked. I've seen some Nazi movement, very aggressive towards foreigners, starting up in Greece recently, there were quite a few stories in the media about it. But I guess these are active mostly around Athens and similar cities, the islands are probably not affected.

If the cradle of civilization becomes a "no man's land" imagine what will happen to the UK.

How nice...

Έλα ρε τσαντίλα, σου έθιξα τη χώρα; :-P

Elenarie, you won't have a problem, if you decide to go this year. Tourists who generally have problems are people who stir up trouble with the sort of people who are troublemakers (again, this applies in every country, and there are some very bad examples). If you just mind your business and go to have fun, you'll have a very nice vacation.

Sounds alright, thanks.

Ε ρε φίλε, να τα λένε οι ξένοι... να τα λέμε και μεις;
Είπαμε δεν είμαστε τέλειοι, αλλά δεν είμαστε και σκουπίδια όπως θέλουν να μας παρουσιάζουν.
Καλή συνέχεια

One of my closest friends lives in Greece six months of the year and the UK six months of the year. Even with all the problems in Greece, she'd take it over the UK any day of the week. She and her husband own a house there and they plan on moving to Greece permanently in the next few months. And no, it's nowhere near as bad as the news media would have you believe. Don't you all know yet, you can't believe half of what the media publicizes?

When we had anti-government demonstrations in Bangkok a couple of years ago and almost 100 people were shot and killed by PM Abhisit's government, the news media would have you believe all of Bangkok was in uproar. In fact, unless you were in about a 3 block area, you didn't see anything and Bangkok and the rest of Thailand was as safe as it ever was -- and that would be one of the safest places in the world, BTW.

I get that. A friend also told me that he had much fun during his vacation on Zakynthos. I just thought it would be best to ask someone that is from Greece and knows the situation best. No shame in asking. :p

I sometimes forget I own some game already, either on retail or another service. Like the two different Medal of Honor compilations I bought in retail, not even that long away from each others.

(Actually, for some reason I probably believed the earlier compilation I had bought was a Call of Duty compilation, hence I didn't think twice buying the second MoH compilation... close enough I guess.)

Last week I almost bought one game from DotEmu that I already have in GOG.

I went into downtown Bangkok on Saturday and was all excited when I found 2 movies I'd been wanting for a while on sale (only 3 bucks for legal copies). Got home, unpacked my bags and put the DVDs in my collection.....

Yep....you guessed it. I already owned BOTH :)

The only saving grace was the first two were bootleg copies, so at least now I own the legal ones, LOL.
