Sorry if it's been asked, but any amazing deals on PS Move controllers? Trying to get all my shit in place for VR in a few weeks.

I would add http://www.idealo.co.uk/ to the OP, I find it much more useful than find-game or other alternatives for comparing prices.
It doesn't list some stores, like shoppe two, but generally it's pretty comprehensive
Perhaps you can add to the Zavvi paragraph, that for mainland Europe it's also really variable as to whether or not you have to pay import taxes. Usually they refund taxes in credit for the store, but that's still a hassle.
Can you give some more information of this. I have no personal experience with this happening. What is the approx charge people are hit with?

Done! It is a good site. Thanks for reminder.

In the past there always was a risk that zavvi ships from the Channel Islands / Jersey instead of mainland UK, so packages would be subject to ~20% import tax + fees depending on country. I was never hit with it myself so I don't know how prevalent it is. Also zavvi doesn't have good prices anymore anyway
I'm trying to refind the source, but from memory, a few months ago, on the dutch budgetgaming board users where hit left and right with taxes, because some packages where either send outside the E.U. or there was some lapse in the customs law between EU and channel islands. Might also be a customs fuck up of course. used to be 21% vat over goods and shipping + customs fee. Can't find the sources and nothing recently is reported, so maybe the issue no longer exist.
I hardly use zavvi now, as their prices suck recently. And the things I order, are beneath the taxable minimum.
Also. I have a question about Simply Games. Don't know if there are members here that have used Simply Games before, but live in Europe. Is the shipping (rates) more the same as Zavvi? Or the same as TGC/Amazon?
And have you received the game/item 1-2 week after it got shipped like Amazon/TGC? Or 2-4 weeks like Zavvi?£2.50 for shipping one item last I used them.
Your best bet is popping into a local CEX. I don't know if they prices have gone up, but I saw them for about £15
And have you received the game/item 1-2 week after it got shipped like Amazon/TGC? Or 2-4 weeks like Zavvi?
looking forward to further depreciation of the GBP

Agreed.
Looks like I've claimed post catorce.
I can't tell if you're joking or not.Post fourteen?
YES to thread
PS wrt "paying more to get games early", it's worth adding to OP that you can often order Tuesday release games from SimplyGames.com on the Thursday/Friday before and ask for "Special Saturday delivery" and get them on Saturday. It costs £20 more but I've done it twice and it is great getting a whole Saturday night to play.

The thread title is a reference to a U2 song. U2 wrote another song called Vertigo. Go listen to the intro of Vertigo.
