Couldn't find the cheap-ass gamer thread to bump.

Some example deals including the 20%:

Xbox One + Fifa 16 + 1 Month EA Access + 14 days Live Gold £239.99
500GB PS4 Console £229.99
PS4 1TB £249.99
FIFA 16: £30

etc. etc.

 

[WhateverItTakes]

I got a years PS Plus with it considering that never gets a good deal

 

[mclem]

Is it only off a single item or can you munge several payments into one?

 

[Mr Moose]

I got this: PS4 Black Console 1TB + Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate + Watchdogs - £259.85 (Well, for my sister, I already own a PS4).
Good shit.

 

[FunkMiller]

Picked up a brand new Xbone + second controller + Battlefield Hardline (never played it and wanted to pick it up) for £240. Sweet.

 

[chunk3rvd]

I got a years plus for sub-30. One of the 2 main sellers bumped his price up to £99.99 shortly after the code went live as he must have been getting flooded with orders!

 

[BossDarkseid]

Tempted to get a few Persona Design Works books...so tempting.

 

[Kingpin Rogers]

Regretting not waiting until today to buy my 390 now :/

 

[Visualante2]

Wish they'd have given us a bit more heads up on this one to be honest. I resist the urge to impulse buy. I probably could have found a laptop but I'm not going to buy something on only two hours research.

 

[ThePeoplesBureau]

Just bought some Xbox Live gift cards from the Argos ebay storefront (enough to cover Halo next week) and it did indeed work. Where some people might be getting confused is that the activity on your Paypal summary shows as if you paid the full amount, but if you go into the invoice it shows the amount that was paid by the code deduction (and quotes the code), plus the difference made up by whatever your primary funding source was (pp balance, bank account, etc).

Thanks OP.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Got a PS4 from Argos for £199 from this, earlier. Nice.

Not gaming related, but you can get an LG G4 phone for about £230.

Considering I spent £350 on one last month, it's a bit of a kicker.

It's refurbished, but there's 30-day return and 12 month guarantee. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151832463409?clk_rvr_id=771608451900&rmvSB=true

Aside from that I think it is good enough for a thread of its own.

 

[RazielCuts]

Wondering if I should buy Fallout 4 for PC off ShopTo/ some outlet on eBay with this 20% off or just buy it on Steam/ find a code online somewhere..

Was seriously tempted.

But horizon and persona don't come out till next 2016.

I bought a tank top.

 

[Zafir]

Grabbed my self a tablet. Been considering getting one for a while, and seemed like a good time.

 

[Lettuce]

Hmmm do we think that Black Friday/Cyber Monday will have better deals on the PS4??

 

[toythatkills]

I bought a tank top.

Did you have the rest of the tank already or are you just hoping for another deal in future?

 

[Dangerblade]

Pre-ordered Superbeat Xonic for PSVita with my voucher

 

[King Gilga]

How do the refurbished ps4s come packed, just like new ones? Sealed wrapping and stuff?

I think I'll just put the top on my lawn to scare off any ne'er-do-wellers.

 

[Pancakes R Us]

Just picked up a new copy of Mortal Kombat X on PS4 for less than £20. Bargain!

Yeah, but Deus Ex, Firewatch and Mirror's Edge in February.

And Just Cause 3 in December.

And Star Wars.

 

[AmaterasuOkami076]

O shit. Does this work on the stores too? Argos/ShopTo ebay stores etc?

 

[Alienous]

I can't think of how I'd make use of this.

Shame.

 

[King Gilga]

I'm just here for the exclusives.

Yep.

ShopTo have apparently bumped their prices today to offset the 20% discount...

 

[XaosWolf]

I picked up a 1TB bone to complete my console set. I guess I can at least enjoy Tomb Raider?

Wait, my PayPal notification still says I paid full price, but me order details say that there is a £50 voucher used. When is the discount deducted?

Your right, so does my shirt + candy, wtf. Paypal shows full price on the website.

 

[kharma45]

I'm really, really tempted by the Xbox One with FIFA for £225

 

[Jonneh3003]

Just did my Christmas shop.

 

[Pancakes R Us]

Hmmm do we think that Black Friday/Cyber Monday will have better deals on the PS4??

The problem with this is that the item numbers will be limited and it'll be hard to get it due to the amount of people trying to buy. Today's deal is open to everyone and you have just 20 minutes left.

20 MINUTES LEFT!

 

[Lashley]

1000000% worth it at that price

Same, urgh.

Edit: Actually if you view the transaction on the classic site, it didn't charge the full price. It's just the new way of viewing transactions doesn't list discounts. x.x

 

[Volotaire]

There will probably be better deals on Boxing Day/lead up to Christmas rather than Black Friday.

 

[Decider]

Are all of ShopTo's solus 500GB PS4's CECH-1216 as pictured, or are we likely to get a bait and switch for old CECH-1xxx stock? I don't want to endure their post-sales customer service.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Same, urgh.

Yeah, mine says this too, wtf?

edit: OH. Check your PayPal transaction. It says where the money comes from: 80% from your card, 20% from the voucher code.

 

[kharma45]

1000000% worth it at that price

12 minutes to decide

 

[Wichu]

Anyone complaining about PayPal charging them full price, check your transaction details. Here's how mine came up:

Oct 22 eBay - [seller name] -£250.00

Paid with
£50.00 QCPUKQ4 Flash Coupon CUKFLASH #CUKFLASH
£200.00 [bank account]

Although the overview shows -£250.00, only £200.00 of that came out of my bank account.

For some reason it only shows the discount if I looked at the transaction on the classic website. Paypals shitty new website I guess.

Yeah, I just saw this by digging about through Paypal. Phew! Thought I got fucked over then.

 

[justsomeguy]

Thanks OP.

You are most welcome.

Glad to see a good few gaffers have benefitted. I resisted picking up a PS4 - enough games to play this month, I'll wait for the inevitable UC4 bundle.

Enioy your new swag, everyone.

 

[NeonDelta]

Went with a PlayStation plus subscription for £30 as mine is up for renewal soon, didn't want to rush into spending big just for the hell of it

 

[XaosWolf]

Yeah just seen it. (Mobile PayPal site sucks)

It shows as full price because PayPal put up the discount amount and sent it along with your money.

So as far as your Summary knows, the PayPal transaction was the full price.

Of course if the full price leaves your bank account then we'll all go nuts together.

Picked up Sunset Overdrive too, though the voucher didn't work. I can deal with that since its like £20 new.

 

[Possumowner]

Goddamit i cant think of anything i need.Maybe grab some vita games or 3ds ones

Fuck it I'll pass, still not enough games to justify it.
