Thanks Amazon!

Preordered Assassins Syndicate - The Rooks Edition from Amazon for £54.99. Price charged on dispatch: £42.00. Saving £12.99. Now that is money saving!!
P.S. Must say that so far it seems a much better game than some of their previous ones! Nice to be able to play between two characters both of which have different styles.

It's the saving of £12.99, wait a month and could save some more.

Its a saving yes but its not a great saving.

I'm waiting/hoping for the price to fall to around the £20 mark before christmas.

I mean that spending money on luxuries is not what i'd call saving!

Exactly.... Amazon book recently on pre-order @ £15 down from RRP of £30. A week after launch it was £9.50.

I bet you're the sort who has still got their first weeks wages in the bank! Some of us enjoy things that you might class as luxuries. I have no intentions of trying to be the richest man in the graveyard

no i'm not paid weekly.

I also spend a lot on luxuries.....i just dont understand the mindset of buying something at a "discount" as saving money. It's quite the opposite!

Yes I agree on that but if its what people enjoy doing then up to them.

I don't understand your logic. If I can buy an item I really want and can buy it at say Amazon at a 'discounted' price for £10 less than Argos then surely that is money saving.
