Buying SH5 in Oz?

bluedingo · 02-12-11, 10:39 AM

Hi, I'm living in Australia and interested to play SH5 but the cheapest I could find it was $85 AUD. For comparison, a days worth of food costs me $12, and I am a poor student so not having food for a week is kind of a big deal :P
Does anyone know a way I could get if for cheaper. Excluding

I'm not that desperate to play the game
Thanks, -bd

Click the amazon link at the top right of the page. Not only should it be cheaper, butttt if you buy using that link, part of the money goes to Subsim!! what a deal!

Thanks, but Amazon won't ship to me.

I went to EB, but not in the city (Melb, too) so I'll look there. Thanks!

I bought through Ebay as save a lot. I got it yesterday so I'm busy installing it. Will now have to look at the mods to see which to install!

Mighty Ape has it for $24 plus delivery, but they've had it on sale as low as $10.

What I did, (as I'm in the same situation) was
download it via torrent here:

http://extratorrent.com/

using Vuze (high speed torrent downloader), and PowerIso..

then I bought the keycode from Sh5 site. Works great,
and it's not pirated..

Cost me about $50. I did it
this way, as I've not been very lucky by downloading
games from sites I buy it from... often they didn't work.
I knew the torrent worked so was more willing to do it
that way, and to buy the code.
