I'm sure release dates will change before then so we'll have to wait and see if it's worth importing from Neighbours Land or not.

I got it from Dick smith electronics, only cause they had slashed all gamecube games to mucho cheapo prices! Maybe they are slower than the others, but I still think i'll wait for MK to be relaesed here, especially when you can get it for £30 online!

Well your postman must like you a lot, the point however is not the cost, more the shipping time!

I only bought Zelda from oz about 2 weeks ago, it took over 2 weeks to ship, the game was cheap £20, but only cause there was an 'end of line' sale, the shipping was £6 and the customs fee was £8.20, so I could have got it cheaper and much faster from the uk!!

Nah...it takes about a week. And the tax isn't too much because you end up paying less anyway.

The point is whitestripes, is that it takes over 2 weeks to ship from australia, so your foolhardy plan beggers logic...but dont listen to me..import away!! and get ready for a nice £8 customs tax onto of your shipping costs!!
