Just 'ordered' a Samsung pn42c450 plasma TV for 300 euro. Should be delivered tomorrow.

Not a FullHD screen, but for 300 euro it seemed like a good deal. TV is getting nice reviews, and at 42 inch 'FullHD' isn't that important anyway.

Received my Samsung C450 plasma today.

Hooked it up to my 360, and it's nice to finally be able to play on a nice quality TV. Only problem is that occasionally the sound drops out, so I'll have to figure out what's wrong and how to fix it. Sure hope it doesn't have to be send back...

It does. I usually don't use it, but they had the R1 Izo for a very good bargain price ($8) for a limited time. Now the price is back to $20...

OMG No disc :D. WTF!

They don't just sell bootlegs btw. I've used them once and got a legit disc. I cannot remember what it was now.

In case it was unclear to someone: HK Flix sells both bootlegs and official releases. There's no confusion, all you need to know is which companies are bootleg manufacturers and which are legit. So, you don't end up with bootlegs "by accident". But yeah, I do tend to avoid the store as a protest for the fact that they do stock bootlegs as well.

Their website is terrific though. I use it all the time as a release calendar, HQ cover art source, and information bank.

Just ordered Assassin's Creed 2 Complete Edition from Zavvi.com for only 10 pounds, which should be about 12-13 euro or something, postage included.

They'll send me a replacement, but it will take some time as they (took my advice and checked their stock and) discovered all their Izo's are free of discs...
