Fo yoo, speshal pwice. ;) Maybeee you come back tomorrow, say "ey, I want it for $17.95, I say 'Noooo'."
haha Russell Peters... classic.
You sure it didn't say "$7.95"? Did you ask WHY they were selling at that price?

That was probably the english version of the game, since they fly it in specialy, it's very expensive.
the Australian version of the mag is $8.95.

yeah about that. Ive bought it as cheap as $7.95 and up to $8.95. So RRP must be around the $8 mark.

Makes the $79.95 year's subscription fee even more of a bargain, eh?

After finally saving up enough silver for this month's issue, I wasn't shocked to discover that the mag cost a measly $8.50. Next to which were the January, February and March UK mags which were $12.50. Sounds like your newsagent was REALLY trying to rip you off mk !! :lol:
