Mrrrr... Ordering Stuff
Okay, so today Mum and I went out for her day late birthday lunch. We didn't do it yesterday because I had work and also I had to go in an hour early because it was stocktake.
Anyway, last night I finally made myself look up Ebay again for an album I'd promised myself I'd buy at some point - the FFVIII soundtrack - and I found one going pretty cheap.
Oh, there was a few copies of a seven disk set that included the orchestral thingies, the Eyes On Me single and such but between both the cost they were asking for them and the postage they were going to be $50 - American.
I went for a buy that was just the four-disk soundtrack because I could afford that.
Anyway, after lunch, we went down to the nearest branh of the bank Mum and I have our accounts in - which is in the big shopping mall to the south of our home. I put the money into Mum's account (she's the one who owns the Visa card I do my Paypal stuff through) and I decided to go poke in EB Games.
They finally have KH2 in their Coming Soon displays.
Guess what I did? If your guess includes the word "preorder" then you get a cookie. I also laybuyed a guide book for the game, that if I get it off at the same time I get the game itself I get a 20% discount on.
I really should get on with playing KH1 but those damn barrels keep pissing me off. Anyone got advice on how to get through the barrel challenge in the first Collesium visit?
Edit: Ehh... looks like I made a mistake about the FFVIII CD - it's not the whole soundtrack, it's just the orchestral thingie - Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec. Still, that's not bad - it's the best tracks from the game, played by an orchestra.

Interesting to note that after that you get thunder and they won't let you use magic if you redo it (You don't have to) because that would make it too easy.

How ironic!
I tend to avoid eBay for such things though, as it's full of bootlegs, and I'm a fairly serious collector.
