"WHY ME?"
Posts: 9
Ok, i live in the USA and i am just wondering why the prices are so cheap here, i understand that its a special reserve but games are 14 dollars cheaper here then in the USA. Its almost hard for me to trust them. Also i was wondering if somone could help me with ordering, it asks for your adress but not your area code and i also dont know what the postcode or whatever that thing is, if somone can help because i want to order from here.....

So let's say the price for a game is around $60 (not including the actual delivery cost, do SR even deliver to America by the way? Too lazy to check their policies)

So in actual fact by buying off this site you'd be paying at least $10-20 more than you would if you got up off your ass, went down your local game shop and bought it from there.
That's going by the most expensive prices i've seen for games in the US. The one shop i used to go to when i lived over there had them for $40-$45.

I would have thought that the money you would save would be negated by the delivery costs, wouldn't it?

yeah that could be right because over here games like Counter Strike or Rainbow Six 3 are 50 dollars at mpost game stores along with online.

some dodgy web site claims there are 1.65 dollars to the pound so i guess that means $59.40
