K.os Theory Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Just wondering if anyone here buys imported games, I'm looking at picking up something for the PS3 but it's only available in the far east. Tried Ebay but they only seem to be selling the Japanese version ( which funnily enough is in Japanese ). The game I'm looking for is Demon Souls for the PS3 just looking for some advice on what sites people use. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Not imported for a while, but I used to use Tronix (www.tronixweb.com). Careful of the vat and duty, it can add up to as much as 27% + a handling fee which is anything from £5-15.

Virtual_Boy Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I've used Renchi and Yes Asia (Tax free) in the past, also try Play Asia. I miss Lik Sang! I think you only pay import tax when the goods are over a certain value, Renchi give you the option to decrease the shown value of goods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.os Theory Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 thanks for the help guys still struggling to get a copy of this game....everywhere is selling out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.os Theory Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 Toys N Joys Online have it, works out at about £59.00 delivered lol Thanks again VB but no joy, that looks to be the Japanese version...I'm looking for the Asian version ( HK/Taiwan ) as it's all in English - I think the reason it's selling out so much is due to quiet a few very good reviews ( Eurogamer gave it 9/10 and they're usually pretty harsh on their reviews ).

K.os Theory Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 haha will do buddy...but it may take some time, people are saying that the game is fiendishly difficult! here's the review : http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/demons-souls-review it's rare for me to pick up a game on the strength of one review, but it looks to be right up my street!
