Some people like to wait around until they find the game they wanted at a low price where others pre order the game from the start, or some just constantly trade games. You can find certain games dirt cheap at garage sales and places like that.

So i ask you lot, whats the best bargain ou picked up a game for? And are you guys the type to wait around for the prices to go down?

I'm one to search for a bargain at times but if theres one game i just can't wait for i'll buy it straight away :P And the best bargain i ever picked up is probably the legend of zelda collectors edition for £5.

Every game import made from the US. Very cheap in comparison to the EU prices.

Also, I picked up a N64 with Goldeneye, Super Mario 64, Mario Party 2 and a controller for about 10 USD.

My room mate traded me a DS Lite, and 3 DS games for Sim City 4 Deluxe. Sadly I lost my job earlier this year and had to sell them.

Infamous for 29.99 only a month after it came out. Was originally 69.99 + tax so saved around 40 bucks on a new game.
