Finding Gamecube games

Well, okay, it's a bit late in the game and so it seems my local video games specialists stock about a half dozen Gamecube games between them, all of them not bieng what I wat - that is to say, Resident Evil and killer7. They just sprang to mind recently, and I decided that I had to have them, which is going to frustrate me to no end.

Does anyone know any good, moderately reliable online retailers, serving up games in the PAL format?

Gamestop? Play-asia.com? Amazon? Half.com?

Just try eBay. I've had nothing buy good experiences buying PS2 games from there. Just go for the online stores, and you should get pretty reliable service.

Amazon still stocks quite a few last time I checked.

Also, look for software of gaming chains that sell tested, pre-owned games. I've picked up dozens of cheap (as in $5 cheap) GC and N64 games that way. Granted, it was safer in the 64 days because cartridges cannot be damaged by mere mortals, but even with the disc games a bit of spit and polish kept them working.

I think Gamefly would work. They have loads of console games for every system since the PS2. You can take out two games at a time. If a game is for sale, you can buy it and keep it, or just keep the game as long as you want before sending it back.

Gamefly is hideously overpriced imo. For the cost of their rentals I could buy the same game used in good quality at Gamestop. In some cases two games.

Cost? I've had a subscription since the beginning of the year and it's hardly made a dent in our bills. And you don't have to pay for renting either. Just the subscription.
