Wiitastic Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Where will you all be buying the gream game in late October ? I have just pre-oredered it from Games Warehouse which is selling for $79.99 with a release date of 29th October Also $6.00 for postage and handling, I am paying via direct deposit when the game is ready to be shipped. EB Games has it for $99.99 also with a release date of 29th October So even with the extra $6, it is still cheaper at Games Warehouse by $14.00 Better in my pocket than anyone elses !

jdlovesunited Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 im getting it off steam as soon as its released, dam pricey though for a download - no box,manual etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
torsportsfan Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 why can't you just get a boxed copy off Ebay? sure it's a lot cheaper and your still supporting the developer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swirlypop69 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 im getting it off steam as soon as its released, dam pricey though for a download - no box,manual etc Er, you do get the manual, just not in paper form. Right click on the game after install and select "view player manual". Ok, so you may have to be online initially to read it... but you can always print it off or save it to your harddrive if you don't want to go online everytime you view it.

Management Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I'll go down to EB games and buy it in person... Never trusted the idea of delivery on release day as it may not be sent out until released. I'm not even going to rush in and get it... If EB Games sell out I'll walk about 20m to check @ Game. I could get it off steam but I'd prefer the boxed edition. I don't think we get ripped off for prices... Back in NZ, we'd pay more than here in Australia. Mind you, I'm the type of guy who'd rather buy it then & there rather than look for somewhere cheaper... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlo116 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 i'll have a look around i've found that eb games is usually pretty expensive so i might check out places like jb hi-fi and dick smth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydfc4ever Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 my philosophy is: Cost be Damned, this is FM we're talking about here! i'll be buying it on the release day from my local EB regardless how much they want to charge me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leedsfan88 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Wow ye really pay over the top according to the latest exchange rate ye paying 41 pounds GB. An extra 30 something percent...but its still gonna be worth it for at least a year of gaming, unlike some games such as assassins creed which you can clear in about a day if you play in casually...

tommyh_16 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 im in the same position as Sydfc4ever, regardless of the price that EB sells its for i'll be buying the game there. it's fm10, of course its worth it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathew Cheeseman Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Disappointing, as I managed to score FM2009 from cdwow.com.au last year for $55.95 including postage, and FM2010 doesn't seem to be available through them this time.

--b-- Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 ill be using steam. didnt have any problems for FM09 and to me its the easy option and saves fighting it out with others at the shops and finding its sold out within a day. anyone know what is costs on steam?

Ryknow Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 EB normally rip you off, you can find better bargains at GAME or JB in SA. I will most likely get it after the first patch anyways so by then it will be $70-80 at most places. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gstarblues Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 What? That's the normal price everywhere in Europe. RRP in the Uk for Football Manager 2010 is £39.99 but play and amazon etc have it for £29.99. So £30 is 34 Euros just now. Last year I got FM09 for £25 on release arrived on time and everything.

DivineOne Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 We can't buy on these sites in pounds. And if you put it in euros, the prices are higher. Play.com is EUR 38.99 (£34.33). Last time I bought a game there it took about 2 weeks to get here too. Apparently they get send all the way from Budapest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked cdwow.com.au again, and they're selling it for A$60.95 including postage (presumably to Australian addresses only), with the stated release date as 30 October, so I think I'll be ordering through them again.

skeepe Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I often find it easier to order from an online UK supplier. I did that last time and it arrived in my mail 1 day before the official release date, and it was cheaper than buying it from EB or JB or any of the other shops down here.

AndyPass Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 There's a JB Hi-Fi, Big W, Game and EB within spitting distance of each other in Woden in Canberra. I'll probably stroll around all 4 to see which one is the cheapest, buy it, and then pick up a kebab from Ali Baba on the way to my car. Not sure I trust Australia Post to deliver it on time.

ChrisCryptic Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I got it from CDWOW last year and will be again this year.

It comes out in the middle of the HSC yet again, going to be a lot of angry little tikes. I did the HSC last year and the initial release date was OCtober 30th which was the day of my last exam, i was so excited i had a plan to finish my last exam, leave school and go down to the nearest shopping centre buy the game and go home. Unfortunately they pushed the release back to November 14th, which was 2 days before my birthday so at least i got it as a present and didn't have to pay for it.
