I shop locally for consoles cos it's too big of a risk to do online, as much as I like and trust online shopping. So almost always JB Hifi. For accessories and games I use eBay, Play-Asia and Oztion probably in that order

Play-asia is brilliant price wise and service wise if you can handle a week of shippping delay compared to picking it up in the shops.

what system would that be....? getting over-charged for games that can be bought 20-30% cheaper elsewhere? If they wanna run there 'business' like that it's stiff Sh** for them! they take advantage of people who don't know better, so i don't really have sympathy for them getting some of their own back.
