    Hello!!!
    As you all may know, Pro Evolution Soccer 4 on Xbox has gone up to £29.99 from £6.96. Well, I phoned up Amazon and they checked their records to see if their price had been reduced in the last few days. They were at first being quite difficult saying that they couldn't find it being reduced in the last few days. I simply requsted to speak to 'someone that might know' and funnily enough, the collegue i was speaking to found it at £6.96.

    He simply told me that I should order it at £29.99 from the website and he would change it when i order it - before i get charged. Hopefully this could work for all the other games that have recently gone up!!!

    Sorry - am I being thick here? Are you saying that Amazon have some sort of price promise / price matching offer? When I got in touch with amazon about this they said tough luck!

    Thanks
