Virama: Dude, if they sold games when they come out for sixty bucks in Australia I would buy them as soon as they came out. As it is, the average is 100 - 110. Sixty bucks is cheap as fuck here! When games get knocked down to fifty I buy.

nondeplumage: The extra 40-50 is for the hazard pay for the shippers. That's what you get for having 99% of all the kill-happy animals in the world located in your country. :P

Anyway, Yun and Yang??? OH YEAH! (I'm still a Ken fanboi though ;) )

michaelleung: You do realize that places like Steam and everything sell the exact same games you want for $50 new right?

Virama: What if I'm stuck on dialup - which I am - due to a fuckwit of a landlord who refuses to negotiate about the "great broaband" that is included in the rent?
Also, I'm dubious about Steam. I prefer to have hard copies of my games. That is not to say I don't have any games from steam - I have several - I just like to know that if the internet fails I can play my games no matter what. ;)
Also, you do realise that heaps of the superdeals are usually only applicable to US and Canada residents. I went and had a look at steam last night due to the "Amnesia Dark Descent" thread on GoG itself, and all the new games are 69.95 or 79.95. I suspect they modify their prices according to territory. *shrug*
