Hey guys,

There is this PSP game on Amazon that I want except that Amazon UK doesn't ship to Australia (I can't get this game elsewhere).

I need a friend obviously who can buy it for me, send it to their UK residence and then forward it to me here in Sydney. The total value of the item will most likely be less than 35 pounds all up. I'm trying to avoid any mail forwarding services as their service charges to Australia are ridiculous, especially for this small item.

Also, I've noticed after lurking a bit on these forums that most of you people are

1) CE collectors
2) Not Australians

I know that EBGames (Gamestop) here in Australia tend to come out with stuff that aren't readily available elsewhere like;

http://www.ebgames.com.au/wii-152794-The-Conduit-2-Limited-Edition-Nintendo-Wii
http://www.ebgames.com.au/ps3-153000-Homefront---Collectors-Edition-PlayStation-3

So in exchange, I'm more than happy to act as a mail forwarding service for something to you if need be. I work in a warehouse too so I have access to good packing materials as well.

Please PM me if you're willing to help. Also note that you must show me proof of reliability (eBay feedback/long posting history) as I'll be the one giving my money out here. You also obviously have to live in the UK.

Cheers,

Corey

Final Fantasy:Crisis Core Special Edition.

It was never released in Australia and I'm 100% certain that any of the retailers you've mentioned no longer stock it/long sold out...

Hence why I bothered to make the initial post.

OH - I though you were referring to a newly released game.

Yeah, forget forwarding agents, you will also have to pay import taxes on arrival with them.

Ok I Can do this for you, Pm on the way.
