Worse internet shop: ebay/game - a bunch of chimps with no idea what they're doing, who ignore difficult questions caused by their screw-ups until you threaten legal action. As you may be able to tell, i've had bad experiences with ebay :^)
(that said, i've had not hugely dissimilar experiences with sr, though that was only one member of staff, with ebay, it was loads of them).
Best Local Game shop: Woolworths (not that they're good, but there's no real competition round here. they make the cut above dixons because they sold zelda oot for a tenner once)
Runner Up: umm.. dixons.
Worse Game shop: 'gamepark' - the only other place you can buy games, they tried to sell me a second hand virtual chess 64 a month before the cube release, for £20.

Worse Importers: seen a few dodgy dealers, but it has to go to micmic.com, purely for failing to make their site even work, let alone look professional or trustworthy :^)
