"Games import sites?"

Anyone know any decent importers, don't really want to use Goblin and Importmadness.co.uk seems to have vanished.

So anyone know any decent sites to get US games? preferably quite cheap.

Most importers that made their money on Ninty imports will have given up, it is increasingly hard to find Ninty games on import, the four or five I used to use have stopped importing, nowadays your better ordering direct from play-asia.com or lik-sang.com, or buying off ebay

I've never had any problems with Goblin. Takes about a week after U.S/Jap release date but better than waiting 6 months for PAL version!

ANyone know were DVDboxoffice has vanished too?

It's done a importmadness and the whole site has dissapeared.

gamesimporter.com are still importing GC games, £45 plus £2 p&p for F-Zero, they're quite good.

Ebay is always the best bet...try and fine someone who will post stuff to the UK. Postage is not bad either. If I see an auction I like the look of, i normally contact the seller to see if they have anymore copies of the game etc, and they normally arrange a cheaper price for you. Rather than messing about with auctions and there are normally loads of wholesalers on. Thats how i got my GBA for £50 only a few weeks after the US release date. (I bought 2 and made a killing on Ebay with the other) I also managed to get my copy of AC and freeloader posted to me for 28 quid, so they arent that bad :P

dvdboxoffice are gone?

*Throws hissy fit*

I can still get import madness...

Apparently North America had a big power cut so all the these sites were offline for a while. They should be back now.

So they haven' actually gone, you just couldn't get to their web site.

Well done.
