trying to buy System Shock 2

sNeaksieGarrett on 6/1/2007 at 23:26

Hi, I plan on buying System Shock 2 and I was wondering if anyone could link me or tell me of any goodwebsites where I could buy a copy.

Amazon.com is good I know, but they are selling for over 40 bucks. =(

Also, I'd like the links to all be for the USA, not an outside source like Australia where I'd have to convert currency and have mega shipping costs.:(

thanks!

For such a good game, I'd buy it for $40 - 45. :erm:

i wouldnt. for one, i dont have enough cash.:( two, thats overpriced for an old game. lol, i saw thief 1 & 2 for less than a dollar on amazon.com!:rolleyes: :laff: :o :wot:

$40 is a bit much for an older game, I agree, but when considering what game we are talking about, I personally think $40 ain't all that much.

The shipping costs (http://www.gameswarehouse.com.au/longpage.asp?gameid=2950) from Australia to the US will likely not be much higher than to the UK (16 AU$). Say they wanted 20 AU$ ... that would be around 15 U$.

Here's someone who wants (http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00000K4AX/ref=olp_tab_new/104-5689574-4255945?ie=UTF8&seller=&condition=new) 149 U$ for it! lol

Bloody hell! That goes way past my limit, and I'm a huge fan of SS2. :p

It's a little cheaper at (http://product.half.ebay.com/System-Shock-2_W0QQprZ47819010QQtgZinfo) Half.com, but not much.

lol @ ebay thinking that its a ps2 controller =p :eww:

well thats still a lot to pay for shipping. also, for me, you have to consider the fact that its going to have to be shipped by plane or by boat or something... would be easier to get it from here than Australia. also, im pretty low on cash availability:( ive got only like 15 USD left to spend, and if its 15 dollars for shipping, and ss2 costs about 9 95, i dont have enough.:o

thanks for that link to half by the way. still too much for me. i dont have the $$$. maybe later when i get more money i can try more expensive options (birthday?)

Holy crap! 149 bucks!:wot: You could buy like a few copies for that much cash. (if you compare like gamers wharehouse or whatever, or ebay prices)

You can buy system shock 2 from (http://www.gameswarehouse.com.au/longpage.asp?gameid=2950) Gameswarehouse.com. It is an australian company, but the game is only $10AU not including shiping. i'd be suprised if it went over $25 bucks with shiping.

EDIT: oh, kolya linked it...never mind.

GamesWarehouse would charge me 44.05 Australian dollars (for SS2 and the shipping), which is about €26, or $34.

:(
