I don't belive this. Last night, I bought a Joytech 16 Mb memory card for £8.99. Yes thats right. £8.99. And guess what. Amazon have only gone and reduced it. Just my luck. *shakes fist wildley at amazon*

Amazon aren't bad, but things tend to go a bit awry around Christmas.

On the whole, they'll save me a lot on pretty much everything and I'm pleased with their service. The reason I order from them usually and not Special Reserve is because of the pricing. Not one console game, new or old, is priced above £29.99. With the £7.50 membership fee I pay to SR, I'd really expect them to at least match that.

Not meaning to slate SR, just my current opinion.

I'll be off to WHSmiths soon, then, because Madden needs them so much, and at that price I can't refuse.

w00t.

Amazon are complete crap, really. You may save £5, but you'll end up having to wait a lot longer due to rubbish delivery. I pre-ordered Viewtiful Joe from them a good month before it was release, but because the release date had change since I ordered, I had to wait until the original date before it was sent. Even then they took an extra few days.

Wan... fools.

I try to buy from SR as much as possible now, I only buy from elsewhere if I'd end up saving about £10.

Just buy media from them, and you can't go wrong.

Though most of that is available cheaper elsewhere.
