I've got a code for xenoblade in argos Drogheda if that's of use to anyone here. It's good till Monday.

Prob as close to Dub as there'll be, quick enough trip up the M1 in a car.

If its still going could I have it please?

Sorry been out all day. Who's wants codes for Dundalk and Drogheda. Get them while they're hot. You have until 6. Then they expire. Be quick because sneaky Argos will charge you €29.99 from tomorrow. Also Clonmel. Corholio wasn't able to get there today.

Are you still looking for a swap code for one of them?

If not could I get the Drogheda one please if its going spare?

If so, all the best with getting a swap code.

No. I gave away the code for Clonmel this morning to Corholio but he can't travel there today. I don't know why he asked for it so. I have the other 2 as well for Drogheda and Dundalk.

PM'd it to you there, enjoy.

Gamestop have Super Smash Bros Brawl for the Wii for about a fiver brand new.
It's the Nintendo Classics branded release but still a bargain, something to warm you up ahead of the WiiU/3ds releases.

Do you want a second code for Drogheda?

It needs to be used today.

@mozie81 I sent you the code for Clonmel.

I asked for it yesterday and you wanted to wait until today. No need to blame me for that.

Is the Clonmel reservation for tomorrow or sometime next week? I'd love to have it either way.

Today at 00.08 a.m. That was the first you asked about it. I said to you straight away in a reply to your PM that if I didn't get a swap I'd give it to you this morning and that's exactly what I did at 9.10 a.m. to be precise. Just saying.

Dozen Wicked Words

Not a fan of people hoovering up all the reservations in argos, no doubt with good motives and trying to be helpful to other boards users, but I just find it all gets messy, but I think I am probably in the minority!

Yes. IF you didn't get a swap, so otherwise I wouldn't have known until today regardless. I appreciate that you wanted to give the code but I would have needed to plan in advance to travel there, so no need to question someone because of it.

Jesus, a fiver! Anything else decent?

sligeach

Good news everyone. I've more reservation codes. I do the hard work so ye don't have to. Who wants them? They're valid until close of business on Monday. Unfortunately Argos have increased the price to 29.99 but it's still a bargain. I've a code each for Drogheda, Dundalk, Clonmel and Athlone. I would like to swap codes for Dublin or Longford if possible please so I'll wait until tomorrow before giving them away?

Massive thanks to RobbingBandit for their code for Longford.

Absolutely Gutted.

I saw this last night and it said "One left in stock, but may take 4 weeks shipping" - I proceeded to try and purchase it, and realised I only had €11.87 left on my Debit Card.

I bought the regular edition but wasn't that gone on it. I'll probably go back to it at some point, but if you wanted a lend of the game just to play it I could post it to you, and you could play it and send it back. I'll not be playing it any time soon, so wouldn't care how long it'd take you to clear it. Only thing is I'm not sure if I have it with me here in Cork or back in Limerick. Would have to have a look around.

Edit: Have it here with me.

Thanks a million

But I'm buying to add it to my library. I've been keeping an eye out since January, I saw a limited edition go for €25 on Ebay. I nearly had this one
I think it's one of those games that you have to really get into it before it grips you (If you get me).. At leats, that's the impression I got of it.
I can't wait to play it, but am also enjoying trying to get it (Sometimes).

Pushtrak

Ah right, fair enough. Open offer anyway, just saw I have my copy here with me.

Allyall

Very generous. I might take you up on it if I find that I'm finding it too hard to get/taking too long.. Thanks again

Pushtrak

The Last Story isn't a big deal. It isn't exactly a prized part of my collection. Now, if it were Tales of Vesperia, I'd be wanting promises it'd be looked after like the treasure that it is.

RobbingBandit

Vesperia isn't that rare anymore CeX in Newry have one for £18 might pick it up tomorrow.

Pushtrak

You should. I wasn't really sold on the demo, but I bought it anyway because I didn't know when I'd see it again. I haven't seen it retail since, though I think I've seen it on Amazon.com at some point between then and now. Might have always been easy to find it online, but wouldn't really be looking up games I own online like that. It is on the marketplace too. Glad I did get it, had a lot of fun with it.

JosephPatrick

Not sure if anybody has seen this, but Bit Trip Runner 2 is on the Wii U eshop for €3.99 at the moment reduced from €15 I think.

Downloaded it last night, really fun game to get into and well worth the 4 euro.

TrustedApple
