Seriously. Well, I checked all the big shops, not just in Birmingham, but most of Yorksire too, as I was away there.

Asking the "Store ASSistants" about if there was any in stock, when they would be in stock, or how long would it be if I preordered one."

Well. Several stores told me sperate things.

GAME: Maybe early next week or fortnight, but even if I paid for one now, they couldn't guarantee me one.

HMV: "Err, dunno mate" (Chavy accent) "All I knows is, dat de ent in at the mo". Seriously, this was the most I got.

Virgin Spazzerstores: Like HMV, but more long winded and all I got from them was maybe Novemeber

Dixsons: Me: "Any in" Spacker: "lol no." Maybe Christmas if you preorder, off shelf no one knows.

GameStation (You know, all over the country, selling cheap shit like second hand Rayman): Exact Words "Well, all of our preorder stock is taken up for this month, then next delivery we already have 10 people interested in that, so... hmm.. I'd probably say after Christmas?"

Mother Fuckers.

I bet like, the're hiding them round the back, all playing RAY-MAN together over LAN. Bastards.

One reason why I waited until I was in Canada to buy one. Loads of the bastard things here, £220 got me the PSP Value Pack, WipEout Pure and Lumines. And I've still not claimed my tax back yet - that should make it about £187 in total.

That deal sounds fucking sweet. You've won the TezzRexx price of Win. This week.

And yeah, i'm gonna start doing some searching on the web. Electric bird land looked but, untill the site went down. Whoops.

eBay might be an idea, I got a DS secondhand with no probs, saved about £50, no problems with anything.
