Nintendo GameCube Console (pre-owned) - £4.98 inc del

Gamestation changed their website on thursday, and changed the prices of nearly everything.

Now, being a new site, some links don't work properly yet (http://www.gamestation.co.uk/lowdown.aspx?lid=20037 for example), but if you search you can find the product, but the add to basket link is missing.

However if you click http://www.gamestation.co.uk/Cube/Hardware/Console/~r406206/Black-Nintendo-GameCube-Console-Preowned/?add=406206 then it should add it to the basket, at £4.98.

I can only assume that they are trying to get rid of their stock, as surely it would cost them almost that much to post it?

    Good Grief!

    I couldn't resist one at that price, and have bought one. I'll be very interested to see if it arrives. If not, I don't think I'll worry too much, as I have never used one and have no games for it. :p

    Thanks

    By using the 2nd link from Stefarno, it automatically added it to my basket. Just check whether your basket shows 1 item - if so, go straight to checkout.

    Have you gone to the site through the link in the post?

    If so, it should already be in the basket.

    My Dh would love this but reading the terms and conditions it probably wont go ahead, good find if it does though.:beer:

    it's showing pre-owned as out of stock, which is a pain , as I need a gamecube controller for my wii!
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    Try again quickly. When I posted that instruction, it saved two in my basket. I just checked the link again, and they are still in there - so I've just emptied my basket.
  • I already have one of these but I just wanted to let you know that I highly doubt that this is a mis price as game were selling these in store at this price a few weeks ago.

    Great find though..... at least anyone who ordered one should get one as I am sure they are the right price.
