Ok i went to gamestop to look at there ps2 bundles.And what i want to know is how much was the bundle that you got?how many games did you get with it? how much was all the shiping in the end?
Also if you got a budle that was $399 dollars,did it get converted when you had to pay for it?so say that the exchange rate is 1.40 over here i would pay 285 english pounds is that right?
One more thing was gamestop a good company to deal with?

Thanks alot if you reply,as you willl be helping me out alot.

p.s how comes you got an american ps2?

I got no bundle  - it was the PS2 only (at launch for 299$ +35 shipping [UPS Express]) Finally there were the German import taxes (ca. 14%).Sorry,I don`t know how your country deals with imports.The duty cannot control all the parcels,so there is a chance you don`t have to pay the fee.
So the final price was about 380-400$.A bit more than the PAL versions price over here.

You could also try http://www.outpost.com I think the shipping is cheaper there.I got some games there.Good for games is also http://www.dvdboxoffice.com They have free shipping.Never had problems with them.
