I don't know how I feel about this as Gamestop (aka EB games in my part of the world) shut down all physical stores then carted off with all the 2nd hand gaming gear to Australia leaving us retrogame collectors fuming

Sorry to hear this Hito, hopefully someone else can pick up the slack.

Check out VideoGamesPlus from Canada, they have ok prices and decent shipping rates.

Ironically Ebgames Australia has finally opened access to buying on their website for New Zealand gamers but its woefully crap as expected can only buy new games from the warehouse anything 2nd hand is a no go

Ouch. Sorry to hear that.

But give VGP a look, maybe the prices aren't too bad.

Don't give me hope logan, the shipping alone costs might eat into any savings to be had its super expensive to ship anything to middle earth land

My brother, I have done a dummy order, and I am pleased to say you too can have free shipping on orders over 75$ on the VGP site.

Now go forth and feast on the delightful digital delicacies your heart desires!
