Just bear in mind that a lot of PCs and players aren't capable of playing them at this point, and maybe not in the future, so... ;)

eBay - if it's not the excitable tw@s bidding like rats at a food pellet dispenser 5 hours before an item ends, it's the sellers who are 'UK-based' in China. And scrotes with it :x

Escalated it to a claim after the seller suggested I hold on to the item or try to sell it myself :roll:

They of course made this suggestion before saying that I'd have to pay a '15% re-stocking fee' and that they wouldn't cover my return costs. All that on an item they listed with what turned out to be confusing/wrong information? Funnily enough, I wouldn't have ordered the item if I'd thought I'd have to return it, would I? :evil:

EDIT for Bratty :D :

I've ordered a lot of stuff from China and HK without any issues, except when they use cheap shipping it can take a rather long time to arrive. They've always been quite clear though, and sticking to people with over 100 x 98% positive feedback I think you're usually OK.

Come to think of it, I've probably had more stuff off eBay from Asia than the UK by a looooong way. Often it's the only way to get what I want at all, let alone at a bargain price. That's not just Animé and Jpop stuff either :lol:

More often than not, anything I got from China was counterfeit or seems to have originated in China, and eBay themselves can't be relied upon :evil:
