:sunglasses: both blew my mind at what they were!
Great deal here btw. Been having an oblivion itch this week as had it years ago on xbox360 but no longer have console so think I found a way to scratch the itch with this price! Damn you!!!

Hoping someone could guide me with how this site works with payments as I've never used this site previously. In fact I've never bought from the UK gamesplanet.
I recently took advantage of that awesome TellTale Humble Bundle but as I paid by Debit Card there was a £1.50 NON-STG PURCH FEE and a 0.12p NON-STG TRANS FEE which meant that instead of £4.68 I paid £6.30 total for the Bundle. Still works out a decent price, just nowhere near as awesome a price as if I didn't have these fees applied.
I figure this is because I've used my card to buy something from a US site and therefore in a different currency.
Will this also happen when purchasing from a German site in Euros, could anyone tell me please?

I don't use Paypal. Just wanted to know if there is a charge using your card.

22 Apr 16#12
It depends on your bank I think.
moonspook to Chuffers

Jan81's response is correct - every bank and even bank account is different and charge different fees. I have a Natwest Debit and Credit card - on the debit card I'm charge a quid for a foreign currency transaction, but it's only 5p on the credit card, but some banks charge both more and less.
If memory serves, you can. You could just try it :smiley:

Is doom 3 bfg edition worth a punt?
ssimonian to rimz790
22 Apr 16#17
Yep. It is all of doom 3, patches and dlc plus all the previous games through steam essentially.

Cheers for the comments chaps.
I've just looked around and it seems to be conditions of my card. Appears that on purchases that involve a currency conversion there is a £1.50 charge plus a charge of 2.75% of the cost price. 2.75% of £4.68 is 0.117 so that explains the 12p as well.
Would using Paypal avoid that charge? I haven't used Paypal but surely I still need to use my card to put money in Paypal so would still technically be using my card?

Fallout Vegas is overdue to appear in a Humble Bundle with all downloadables I'd think

On the UK site, Dishonored (oh god where is the U??) GOTY is £5. Cheapest I've seen it, personally.

You don't need to add a balance to Paypal to use it, it can come directly through your card. I've never been charged extra from currency conversion, and I've used it quite a few times for both USD and Euro.

Will these be censored versions as from .DE?

Grabbed Doom. Contemplating Fallout 3, i always end up skipping Fallout 3 sales when i read through the trouble people go to to get it functioning for newer operating systems.

thanks! got oblivion to have a go at modding it, not played it since i bought it on 360 probably 10 years ago now. eek!

Sounds the same as my bank. Even using PayPal doesn't work when taking it from my card. The way I avoid those charges is to send the amount I need from the bank to my Paypal account. Then there are no charges, as it uses the balance available and nothing from my bank account. Hope this helps.

just a heads up, Gmail can tag the confirmation email as spam due to it being in another language.

Bought these a while back here but I can vouch for the site. Got the key almost immediately. Heat for such great games and prices!

Good point, the Germans censor their games quite often..

If they censored doom, surely you would effectively just be left with a black screen?

Just ordered Oblivion and all the confirmation emails aren't Enlgish. I expected this, but don't know where to find my code.
Please help!

Yeah, would also like to know if there are any restrictions of content with this being a German site.
If it is cut I'd rather wait until it is available on Steam.
IsThereAnyDeal suggests that it's regular price on the site is £7.78 where as it's £15 on the UK and FR sites, which adds to my suspicions that it might be a censored version.
Just search for the keyword, "german," and you'll find the answer. EDIT: To make it a bit more seamless, look for this guy's post - "derwinternaht"

First of all, thanks for your previous answer about the German version :smiley:
Could I possibly ask you how it all works with Paypal as I've never used it before. I've asked a question on a couple of forums I use but can't seem to get a straight answer off anyone on there.
How would I do this? Link my card to PayPal but not my bank details? Don't link anything to my account?

As far as I remember, you have to add a way of sending money from your bank account to your paypal account. I can't remember how this is set up, but, I'm sure when you check Paypal, you'll find the info. You'll probably need to link both a bank AND card. Again, don't quote me on that! Also, you may need to verify it.
