Ventured of this god forsaken island this week for a quick shopping trip to Inverness. Even the extortionate ferry prices aren't enough to make it not worth my time to pick up games much cheaper.

I picked up:

Portal 2
Batman Arkham City
Phantasy Star Universe
Skate 3

All new apart from Phantasy Star which was like new for a fiver. Got them all for about half the price I would here and have been dying to play most of them for ages except for skate 3, the Mrs has a small obsession with skateboarding games.

Impossible, they still need to invent the camera that can actually shoot them all at once!

I've been looking forward to taking some photies of the DS (and wii stuff) for a while now! :D

I've passed a good few hours at work thinking of how to group them etc.

Sad, I know. But, if anyone was gonna understand, I figured it would be people on here.

Been in Hull this weekend at a wedding so I decided to go check out the local shops as I had a couple of hours to kill.

Had a brilliant day! First, some context. About a month ago I put on a £20ish bid for DS Disgaea. I didn't even come in 2nd place I came third! A couple of weeks ago, someone listed one for £26 plus postage. A few quid over what I was willing to pay. After considering it for a while, I decided to go for it - but it had gone. Last week, someone had a Final Fantasy A2 listed up for £15ish (best offer). I dropped an offer in for £13 and it was straight rejected.

Anyways, found it in the local GAME for £9.99 (that completes my DS FF games), but best of all, found the Disgaea for £7.99! Ace :D

Also, I've no idea about about current trends, but I've noticed that that Moshi game always seems to go for over £20 even on bids. I went in to a Crack Convertors and found it for £9.99. Even as a CEX token it's worth £18 (exchange) - bonus!

I've also been after that Ultimate Spiderman for a while as well. Saw it at CEX so I bagged it with some spare games that was carrying. At £12, it wasn't bad. It seems to be listed for ridiculous amounts normally.

Edit- actually, just noticed that i've done the Puzzle and Dragon Quests as well.

Can i ask what job you do for a living?? I get alot of games each week, but not modern they are mostly retro which means i can get loads for a cheap price to bulk up my collection...... Have you filled a room or two with ds games yet?? Would make one hell of a picture set :)
