My PS2 will be arriving this week from the US however the place I bought it from doesn't sell US games. I was hoping to buy them from within this country but aren't sure on who has the best prices. Goblin Direct can basically stock their crap where the sun doesn't shine, I'm not paying £45 that is for sure.

I have never used Import Madness before, are they based in the UK or will it be the usual tax charges etc? Their prices are reasonable and I was hoping for someone who has used them to give me a little nudge in the right direction.

Also a step down converter, my local shops are basically crap and one hadn't even heard of them which was followed by a laugh. Any cheap places to grab one ASAP?

Cheers.

Thats fine is that cheers. Is 30 watts enough though? I have no idea the voltage/wattage of the PS2 as a console.

No use asking me mate i have my own private sources in america and japan, which unless by some amazing coincidence Alastair actually knows them i doubt will send him games. Any other games i get from Another World but that's very rare

Thats the thing, a UK based company WON'T do that sort of thing, that's the reason I am looking for a UK based company.

I would do if I wasn't going to be gang raped by tax charges once it enters the country, some companies mark parcels so they don't.
