Hard Drives IMPOSSIBLE to find?

VGA Cables now not shipping from Woolies until 18th January 2006.

Joytech one it's gonna be then...

[Gavin]

Where you getting the Joytech from? Might change my order if it's going to be that long!

EDIT: Just checked my Woolies order and still says delivery tomorrow, doubt it very much though

[Bleeders]

It was Play, but they're out of stock now as well.

I'm half tempted to pay over the odds and get either a US (Tronix) or JPN (Play-Asia) one at this moment in time.

Wow, Sony and MS need to take a leaf out of Nintendo's Genius Marketing book:

Make enough units to meet demand.

Barring the current Nintendogs situation, of course...

[Gavin]

If Joytech have got any sense, they'll be pumping the VGA leads out by the bucket load right now, they'll make a killing on them....

Do you get the feeling that alot of whats on ebay is stock from the smaller game shops just cashing in, not selling what they have in the shop but on ebay instead.

Although saying this its unlikely they would have managed to get much stock of anything anyway.

Just cant see how so many sellers have such large amounts of stuff to sell.

[Akira]

yea it is strange that there's so many being sold on ebay right now.But i'm half tempted to put a bid down to be honest!

I saw one at my PC World yesterday. If I'm passing I'll pop in and grab it for you.

A HD? Seriously? Thanks man! PM me if you manage it, thanks!

eBAY is ridiculous at the moment, a HD for over ?100, John lewis have the HD cable but its ?29.99 which I'm not paying, I'll pay retail + postage no probs, but that is ridiculous, nearly 100% mark up on all MS 360 products right now.

I agree though, no excuse for the accessories shortage, this really proves its all on purpose in my eyes...

I get the feeling that the second they come in stock, the staff are buying them and hitting eBAY...

I got my hard drive this morning from gamestation, i called them and they said they had a few so i asked him to put it by, had a shower and picked it up.

Have your tired your local gamestation?

Yep, I have tried...

Game x 3
HMV x 3
Virgin Megastore x 1
Currys
Comet
Dixons
PC World x 4
Total Entertainment x 2
Numerous Indies

It's ****ing ridiculous, there's nothing else to describe it.

I mean the HD fair enough, but I can't even get a ****ing CABLE for it, most places are even out of stock of the play and charge kit for god sake!

If someone comes through with a HD cable or HD for me, I'll officially make love to their toes (should they so desire).

Well maybe not.

In all seriousness, I don't mind paying postage etc, if anyone can find one and send it to me, I'm trustworthy but I can only pay by cheque at the mo (no paypal) unless they want something in trade for it. But my feedback is good, I bought a PSP by cheque and the guy sent it before it cleared so I think that's proof enough I'm trustworthy (and desperate for a HD, I SO wanna download som arcade stuff)

[Bleeders]

I've had the same luck mate, suffice to say, should I come across any VGA leads will buy a few and sell them on at cost plus postage.

[oblivion_6]

Theres a wee XBOX HDD sitting in the trade forums now

(ducks into the shadows to watch the rush)

[Jebus]

Thanks for the heads up!

[Kizzycrew]

Get down to Reading. There were a few in the other day.

[Bleeders]

Hmm... Woolies are now saying "Should be delivered on or before Thursday 08th December 2005" for VGA leads.
