    Just wanted to quickly update you all - on the back of my above post I contacted one com who is the domain host for the website and explained what happened - they have now suspended the website to stop it from happening to anyone else

    This seems too good to be true.

    On offer here http://www.gizmosgames.co.uk/BUY_DSI_BUNDLE.htm

    I haven't tried to order so don't know what their delivery charge is but its at least £20 off their nearest competitor, if not more.

    Would appreciate any comments.

    Might I suggest not repeating the spammers website in your reply so that the site isn't still present in the thread after his posts are removed.
  • I used this site today but realised something dodgy was going on and have cancelled my credit card - should we be contacting the police or anything and could they use address details etc for anything else - on searching the internet it looks as though they have traded under several names and a few of these are still in operation

    Hi all, My name is Matthew Moore and I can confirm I did not set up the web site gizmosgames or gizmogames. My card details were stolen from another site doing this same scam and used to set this site up. I have now found out that this web site has been called prontix, bimalp, gizmogames and gizmogadgets. I have asked the domain company one . com to remove the web site and any involment that my name has been falsely used to set it up.

    Please do not try and buy anthing from this site, the genral rule "if its is too good to be true it is!! (dsi £99!!??) - I have learned from this. If you have tried to buy from this site and also had your card declined, it will be used (someone else had a flight ticket purchased to Abu Dhabi for £700) make sure your bank cancels your card and get a new one issued.

    I have now reported this to the police and they are now dealing with this.

    Regards, Matt

    what is the difference between the nintendo ds and dsi please? I know the dsi is the latest one but is it worth buying a ds?

    not much visual difference. get a DSi if you like the idea of a built in
    digital camera and on-demand downloading DSiWare. see link http://www.gamestock.co.uk/dsi
    several good pages worth reading.

    Cheapest DS Lite bundle found so far is at Morrisons of all places....

    DS Lite Black + Brain Train bundle £90 !!! Asda's same deal is £107 and then the usual suspects on the high street are £110+

    This was the cost at the Cribbs Causeway (Bristol) branch of Morrisons - no idea how much it will be in their other stores.

    Even the DS Lite Turquoise + Brain Train bundle was only £115 - £120 in Asda and other places.

    And here's me thinking my £60 Navman bargain from Morrisons last week was the deal of the month.
