Title: Discount at JapanGameStock.com
Post by: KingDrool on August 04, 2005, 07:26:43 AM
I hope this doesn't seem like shameless self-promotion, but considering the topic, cut me some slack.   :wink:

I help run a site called www.TeamFremont.com (http://www.teamfremont.com/), and we do a podcast that currently has about 7,000 subscribers.  Japan Game Stock is one of our sponsors and has offered listeners/readers a discount of either 500 or 1,000 Yen (approximately $4.20 and $9.60) on their next purchase by entering in a coupon code.  I know a few of you buy from them and they have a great selection of PC Engine and PC-FX games, so I thought you might want to know about this deal.  To find out more, just click this link:

Enjoy!

Awesome, thanks! I think I might use these! I think I am also going to use the BOGO deal on TZD since it's that time again.

I got my BOGO email today :D .

For those who don't know, BOGO is a deal that TZD.COM offers around this time of the year. You can buy one item and get another item of equal price or less for half off! Pretty good this year since TZD dropped the prices from their really high ones. I think I am going to buy Buster Bros. and a Duo cord extender.

I BOGO'd yesterday!  ;)  Though there are only one or two titles left that I don't have... :cry:

Anyway, the coupon has been used quite a bit from what I'm told.  I hope you guys use it.  It's a pretty good deal.

Just wondering does this deal at JGS apply to systems as well or only games?

From what they told me, it applies to everything they carry.

What? That sucks big time!

JGS was a great place. That's where my Super Famicom system came from.

They don't take Pay Pal anymore? I used Pay Pal for their site last August, even though I had a small problem due to wrong email addresses for my Pay Pal account. That sucks.

It's a recent thing.  I tried to order from them 2-3 weeks back and they said no paypal.  I noticed there's some other payment scheme listed on their site, WorldPay or something.  Haven't tried it though.

I'll try to get a hold of Tama (one of the main guys there) and find out if they're going to get PayPal back.  I'll keep you posted.  

As far as I know, the discount still works, though.

I just received a reply from them saying that they're still working on it and hope to have a solution within the next two weeks.  They thought they had something set up with a company from the UK, but that apparently fell through.

From the sound of it, they're not going back to PayPal, but will be taking credit cards.

I'll keep you guys posted.
