| 690661 | 2008-07-21 01:19:00 | Hi guys I was looking to buy some games off ebgames.com noticing that they were much cheaper. Does USA games have any compatibility issues with my NZ computer? Will they be resalable? | andrewb3363 (13307) | ||
| 690662 | 2008-07-21 01:40:00 | Fallout 3 for instance with US$29.99 shipping comes to $105.06 Its $130 NZ at Gameplanet. Not much of a saving. $71.56 from PlayAsia. And yes US is fine, when buying from overseas, just make sure it says English Language version. |

| 690663 | 2008-07-21 01:41:00 | There shouldn't be any issues. How much cheaper? I would have though the shipping would have made it not worth it go buy overseas... | utopian201 (6245) | ||
| 690664 | 2008-07-21 01:42:00 | No issues Most of the games we get are American Version anyway. Remember thou if customs get the packages they will charge you the 12.5% GST and perhaps Import Duty as well. Often its not cheaper, just FYI |

| 690665 | 2008-07-21 03:40:00 | But there wont be any "region" compatibility issues as there are with DVD's. | beeswax34 (63) | ||
| 690666 | 2008-07-21 06:43:00 | no. Even if you did get a movie from overseas, your dvd drive might be configured for region 0, which is all regions. I've imported games and hardware from overseas, I didn't get any import duties or gst. I can't remember what the limit is though. |
