99p in GAME

ooo wow someones special aren't they? What I said is based off what I saw on ebay being sold on active listing with 3 copies sold with 1 left in stock. No need to get your knickers in a twist mate, I managed to sell my spare one for £150 and another lad here managed to sell his for £180.

No it didnt. They were selling for £120 at the max in the uk shortly after game and nintendo sold out. The rest were shill bids or just ended listings. I have a collection of pokemon games worth well over £1.5k and i watched this release as petty scalpers tried to make scraps. I got all of mine on release day with no hassle. They were going for more (around £120-40 MAX) just after release as it appeared that they were really limited. Since then pretty much all retailers have had them in, even tesco who is actively severing their deal with nintendo. They wont increase past £130 in years to come for a number of reasons. 1. The boxes arent sealed. This means you cannot prove it hasnt been played. 2. The console is merely a 2ds shell with no embossed images or designs- only colour. 3. The game is a virtual release which is not exclusive to the bundles. 4. It is an og rehash, this means that the og games and og pokemon gameboys will always be more sought after when the dust settles. I have to laugh at people who buy up things in large amounts assuming they know the market. I am the market and you havent got a clue. These will be worth the same as the omega ruby and alpha sapphire 2ds bundles, probably less in a years time.

Update: I got one in Wandsworth

The game farce was just v cheap advertising. The few that did get hold of the system at that covered their costs very easily I assume. The need it as well. Spotted in the wild: Majoras mask just £37 preowned in the Northwich store.

Went to collect in Streatham and apparently it was restricted

I think Pokémon is coming back with a vengeance with the upcoming Pokémon Go! game/app.

Love it!

​My adult son has been playing Pokémon for years & I'm surprised how big a "community" it is & growing all the time. Now my youngest is into it & her friends, so I think its appeal will continue. Apparently there is even a film being released soon. I'm not into games, so I just nod my head when they talk about it :stuck_out_tongue:

arrggg, added to basket & then OOS when clicked to checkout :disappointed:

Not luck, the guy sounds like a fool.

Well done though.

Take this from me: I doubt this console will make a penny within a few years. Why? I've held on to all kinds of stuff thinking they'll make a profit - Pikachu N64, wonderswan, megadrives, rare Japanese games for the megadrive, Pokemon stadium (sealed) etc. None of them made a profit. I've even bought the FFVII japanese PSP which was limited to 77,777 copies........and even that didn't make a profit!! I gave up trying to make a profit a long time ago and now just buy the games and consoles to play myself.

After I picked up my collection I went down to my local Game store and noticed someone enquiring about the Console, they mentioned its sold out everywhere, I managed to flogg it off to him for £180.

Luck? :confused:

The right time to sell was straight away; I was selling them for £140+

I doubt they would ever reach those prices again.


Edit: In stock in Central London again.

You get a free £5 voucher by making this purchase.

Thanks Op, meant to order from Nintendo but was skint. I'd buy 2 to play one keep one mint but funds prevent me. Ordered from argos and you get the £5 voucher

Everything Nintendo is always sought after, I've got one for myself, gonna keep it 5EVA (because 5 is more than 4)

i doubt these will be sought after to be honest,

1. lots of people now keep sealed items

2. will children of the current generation care about a Pokemon Yellow 2DS when they grow up? do they even know what pokemon yellow is?

just my opinion

in stock manchester

SOrry guys had to buy a couple more...sorry if I made it OOS..

They actually sell for £90-£98 on ebay.... worth the hassel for a £10-£20 profit after fee's?

in stock in Grimsby area

Salsa has a £5 delivery fee so in theory Argos click and collect works out cheaper?

Give it a year and ££ its a game of patience and knowing the right time to sell

Have some Argos vouchers I paid 75% face value for, bought 3 at £60 each. Happy days

They were sold out everywhere so i paid £110 on eBay, next day Argos and GAME had them back in stock at £80. Returned it and waiting on refund now.

I and several members know about the site I'm referring to, so it can be found cheaper, from a reliable retailer (22 years experience) and delivered within 5 days.

The site is not HUKD approved so cannot be posted as a deal. This has nothing to do with the legitimacy of the site in question but more because they do not have affiliate marketing for UK therefore there is no commissions. You can PM me for the site address but that is about it.

Well summed up. And its an 2DS at end of day, clumsy and looked like retro tech the day it came out.

Great, I bought a load of them a while ago to flog on and forgot to hold one back.
Order placed.

There was a load of stock in London, it's going quick though.

Can find these for cheaper if you shop around. The sites I know of have not sold out of this model since release and its £75.79.

However the perceived rarity will be reduced by people from HUKD and other places buying them simply to sell on at a premium. I'll probably eat my words in a few years time, but for me, this isn't likely to be all that collectable for that reason..

1.01% on topcashback, anyone know what rate on quidco?

Will they get restocked? Might be worth for an investment of not.

Bought this last week they have had it at this price for ages and plenty of stock to

Heat added loads of stock near me :-D

thanks OP brought 2

Was gonna post this days ago as game told me was a one off however tesco have them and argos ... Its hardly a deal tho as rrp is 79.99?

I got one from nintendo with free case etc

do the 2ds come with a charger? in two minds about this one or
