Junk Raver Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 [align=center]^_^ Right well, its randomness really. After looking on youtube to see if 5D's Episode 18 is subbed yet, i found a link to some guys showing the contents of the starter deck and new Tins. I thought it was odd they got them early. Anyway, i read through the comments on the videos and found some comments refering to the 'Argos' store. I dont know if 'Argos' is a UK only store. Apparently, Argos have already started selling the Starter Deck, they have been since August 2nd, according to several comments. In about 2 hours, im off into town, to my local argos store to see if it is true. Another comment on the youtube video, also stated that the Tins are been sold at Argos also, so i will check to see if these rumours are true. If your from the UK, or know of an Argos store, i suggest you check it out soon as. Just wanted to let the forums know, and later today i will update and tell you if it is true or not EDIT: Argos ARE selling 5D's cards! >> Dj Osiris <<[/align]^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KAJN Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Well it's actually not surprising. As you can see, other countries get to see movies earlier than the others. In where I'm staying right now (For a couple of months) they have everything before it's released in other countries. I'll have to check with my friends if they know "Argos" but I see malls that have these kinda of things too so I'll check them out in about 30 minutes since I'm leaving the forums in about this time XD. Well have fun there. Don't spend your money on all of these stuff XD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willieh Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Lol I watched about a minute or two of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5d and was sort of dissapointed. :| It seems kind of...corny. Kind of like GX was. But meh...Cards are cool. this is in the right section...right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junk Raver Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I couldnt care less, id rather have them 2 weeks early ^_^ Plus, they are the first cards i have bought since 2005!!! ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Altair Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 so is it expensive there? idk if & pounds is much for a children's card game in England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 gah Australia gets things later than usual. Phantom Darkness took ages to get here, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl got here like 7 months later than usual, so whoevers got the tins now are very lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like you're running the other shops out of business by not buying from their shops. If it benefits me and doesn't hurt anyone else; I do it.

Junk Raver Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 so is it expensive there? idk if & pounds is much for a children's card game in England If i remember correctly, the rough estimate of $ to £ is divide by 3 then x2, so reverse would mean Starter Deck - $10.5 Tin - Around $19 However, it may seem alot, but the average price for starter Decks in the UK is around £7, and tins £13. So Argos is not really selling them for a deer price. And i hope by this thread, other British people can find out and get the tins early from argos also ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesusofChaos™ Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Na the exchange rate has changed meaning its more like just double the pounds to get dollars. So basically $14 for starter $26 for tin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakura Vessal Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 um shouldnt this go into the yu gi oh section? i know your a mod and all and you know this stuff but it looks like the kind of thing to go in the yu gi oh card section.....

I do know this stuff, hence why this thread is here ^_^ This is about Yu-Gi-Oh indeed, however not everyone ventures into TCG section, I, for example. It is best for news like this, to be in the 1st / 2nd most looked at part of the forums, General, so people will not miss the news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junk Raver Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Indeed, York, the city i live in, have 3 Argos's, 2 in town, 1 on the far side of York i cant really get too, i went to the 2 main ones, one had no starters and no tins, the other sold out of starters and only had 1 tin left! which i got ^_^ If you want them, get them soon as. Use Argos.co.uk, you can check your stores online to see if the items are in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeroshot Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Na the exchange rate has changed meaning its more like just double the pounds to get dollars. So basically $14 for starter $26 for tin Hmm, I don't know if they charged more for 5D cards, but here a tin is $19.99and a Starter deck is $10-12 dollars.Well they were last time I bought cards at leased.... Anyway, I'll book a flight to the UK right away :)Also, I don't know if you have noticed this Americans (and maybe brits. I'm not sure) but Target is selling Japanese Duel Genisis cards now.I bought 1 pack a while ago.I couldn't read the cards though :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
