Hello,

Can anyone help me with this one?

http://www.gamestation.co.uk/product.asp?id=man0154

Since it's for UK only, I hope somebody can help me since I'm in the US...

I can pay using my credit card (if it will allow me) and will use your address (whoever helps from the UK). And will have it shipped (will pay you via PAYPAL)...

I have a successful and honest arrangement with 87th the last time, so you can fully trust me regarding payment and all...

THANKS!

That depends on who will help us... Maybe we could order two for us so that we could save on shipping... But someone has to help us first... :razz:

I'd be happy to help out if I knew where I was going to be in October, but there's no guarantees on anywhere, yet. In theory, I could change the delivery address when I move house, but many websites don't allow you to change shipping details once an order has been made.

I'm kinda interested in this deal too, but I gotta know; how much does 99 pounds equal in US currency?

Hey, no problems here 87th... I don't want you to be burdened so much with my whims... You' re pretty much right about changing addresses on a pending order (that spells trouble)...

Hope your move will be smooth...

I just hope I'll be able to make it on the 500 list...

well, I just saw that item posted at MGS:TUS. So far, I haven't seen one being sold here in the USA.

@Commander_AK-47

I hope your friend in London can hook us up with this one... The sooner we could make the pre-order, the better... A 500 count is surely very scarce for collectors like us...

Luckily I have relatives there! Still wish they shipped internationally. That is way slicker than the Foxhound fossil watch.

Hey, I'm going to be ordering a few watches. I have 1 friend and a couple of relatives that live in different parts of the UK. That should help me avoid any complications.

If you're wondering what I mean, sometimes items of that rarity are limited 1 per household even if not stated on the page. Since the actual release is SO far away though I can't commit anything to anyone, but get my email off my website and just msg me as the release date gets closer. Since I have to wait for them to ship within UK first and then to me, it won't reach my hands until November. I do sell on ebay with well over 200 feedback so I can do the transaction there so you have buyer protection.

If anyone has the Fossil watch in new condition, I'll trade one of these straight up for it. That's the only instance I'd definately order one and set it aside for someone.


Thanks for comments about the collection. JunkerHQ really helped me starting out to find out what was out there. Added a couple more items today. My most prized possesion should arrive tommorrow or Thursday at the latest from Japan. It's the MGS Gold Corporate Shareholder Premium Edition still factory sealed, never opened. I've been trying to score one of those for a long time.
