Advice Needed for GAME Transaction.

Some of Tesco's entertainment stock is delivered from Jersey which usually makes it slightly cheaper. As for GAME, I haven't bought from their stores for months as almost everything for Wii/PS3/Xbox is cheaper on the internet, they have so few PC games any more it is pointless even looking for those. The prices for their pre-owned stock are hilarious!

Generally speaking I find GAME shops to be more expensive than anywhere else. We have one in Aylesbury and just across the way is an HMV (and they don't even want to price match them!)

That said, GAME do have occasional gems and it is worth paying attention to prices and finding out what deals are good and which are otherwise.

It is worth speaking to the manager of GAME and highlighting the situation, if nothing else ask for £15 credit to use instore.

I pre-ordered the new C.O.D from Game (It was a spur of the moment thing, if I'd checked prices like I usually do at like Sainsburys I could have got it cheaper!!) and it had an offer on reward points. I got 999 points for it (do you know you need 1000 to spend points in store but less points on net too). That's £2.50 off my next purchase and then I got an e-mail a couple of weeks later giving me £3.50 off a future purchase just as a thanks for the order. I can't imagine many stores doing that.
