Thanks CarbonTwelve for pointing out that The Hut has a coupon for 10% off when buying 2 games: ECOGAMER10
Thanks emerson for pointing out that Zavvi has a coupon FIVEROFF50 to get 5 pounds of orders over 50 pounds
Hard to find these coupons on their sites so if there are any other active codes please post here.
EDIT: are they the same company?
Yup but each of them have their own +s and -s and the prices are also different from time to time. I find The Hut generally takes a bit longer for delivery but they do send you 10% off codes quite regularly unlike Zavvi (yet to receive even one from Zavvi but have received one every couple of weeks or so from The Hut) when you subscribe. The Hut tends to have better prices as well but you have to check there quite frequently since the prices change regularly.
Hahaha I'm the opposite! I ordered from The Hut, got sent a code from Zavvi, so ordered another thing from them and then ordered another thing from The Hut-and still no code from The Hut :P
They dont deduct VAT for international orders like Amazon UK, do they?

Edit : Sorry, damn browser playing up & double-posted. How do i remove this one?
No they don't. If you are after blu-rays Amazon UK would probably be best but Amazon does not post most games to Aus (I tried recently but none of them could be delivered over here and the private sellers who do end up making the prices higher than Zavvi and The Hut) and certainly does not post accessories which just sucks. Any how here's a useful site for games
why did they get rid of free world wide postage in the first place?
I think they took down the advertising for it on the front page but they never actually got rid of the deal.
The did get rid of it. i know cuz they included shipping charges at check out
Yep.. 2 days ago I got charged 2.49 GBP for postage.. I actually thought it was free when ordering but it added it at checkout. I just went thru the process for the same game.. no postage charge, but the game went up 1.00 GBP, so overall I paid 1.49 GBP over todays price, 2 days ago. Oh well, so cheap and delivered to my door in 5 days so I can't complain.
I'm not 100% sure they did as I bought some games 1-2 weeks ago (So in March not Feb) and was not charged any shipping
They took the offer off a few days back. A bit surprised to see it back on again so soon but it certainly does make their prices the best out there especially with the regular codes they send out offering 10% off etc.
Anyone know if they split orders for delivery? I'd like to order some 3DS games (Pilotwings & Zelda) but they have different release dates and I'd rather not wait until end of April for Pilotwings to be shipped.
They charge you when items are sent and send items separately depending on what's available. So you won't have to wait to receive items which are available if you have ordered a few which are not in stock.
Cheers. I put in my order. Thanks dins :)
Incidentally, I assume there's another deal for it somewhere, but The Hut has a coupon for 10% off when buying 2 games: ECOGAMER10.
thanks CarbonTwelve I have edited the post and included the code
just tried to order with paypal and it says "PayPal does not allow your country of residence to deliver to the country you wish to"
short of changing payment methods any ideas to overcome this?
edit: nevermind i selected Austria instead of Australia :( haha
lol actually they sometimes have this issue with paypal it says it is not available from time to time but usually gets fixed promptly.
Bring up the sharpshooter!
They unfortunately don't have any proper move guns except the pistol types available but yeah waiting for the sharpshooter to go down it looks awesome but can't justify paying 60-70 odd bucks for it
i think it's way overpriced too, but it's the only one you can play killzone3 with move. the game requires move button at top, which is absolutely stupid :(
Cheers, just bought a couple of games and a couple of controllers from zavvi.
Used the discount code: FIVEROFF50 to get 5 pounds of orders over 50 pounds
thanks emerson yeah that seems to work on Zavvi i'll add that to the post as well
damn just bought a few games last week, if i had known i would have waited and saved myself 3pounds each game.
still a +ve though!
If there are some which have not been dispatched you can always cancel and re-order.
Exact same here… actually went an ordered soemthing thinking it was free postage, then when the total come up it had postage extra.. and i thought.. I can wait for another voucher, or just get it.. ended up just getting it because they are so damn cheap… 2 days later they reinstate free postage!! Bugger!
OMG i love you zavvi!!!!
