@IkariX it's a good thing IDGAF about your opinion then, lol
It may surprise you to know that other people have different experiences to your own. But I know that concept may be too far out of reach for you.

As for Nexus, I don't know why you ban people that have legitimate points relating to polls you create. None of what I said was out of line, but clearly you prefer sycophants like IkariX on the forum instead of customers who have legitimate criticism of your logistics (which you make us pay for).

Nexushub has the best customer service no doubt. I have had other retailers that don't care about restocking on sold out titles but yet nexushub helped get me townfall steelbooks and control resonant steelbooks even though they were sold out. No one cares about delivery fees as long as you get the physical game in good condition like I have, especially steelbooks which can be fragile.

@DarkWingDuck

I'm going to call [censored] on your post. I've been buying from Nexus since the AnimeWorx days from about 2008. I have literally never ever had bad customer service from NexusHub. So you are being disingenuous. I don't think you appreciate the great lengths they go to, to get these games for us. But enjoy your other retailers and their[censored] service.

MrOde very good point! I'd pay extra for express overnight shipping.

HaseoVII SAME regarding FF7Rebirth (best believe I preordered Revelation though )

I am such a huge fan of Nexus Hub - no one else in SA imports the niche titles - I used to need to get my stuff from Amazon Japan/US

My backlog is so big I don't care how late I get my orders lol haven't even played FF7 Rebirth or even Stellar Blade yet, but that's just me.

I'd actually go even further and say do standard free shipping for all orders above R1000 but allow an express shipping option/add on for those that want to pay extra. I would gladly pay extra to get whatever I ordered the day after I order it.

Shipping costs on games? What's that?

I'm not looking to start a bad thread about this, I was really just curious because I misclicked the tab on the left and stumbled upon the poll (I'd never clicked it before).

I am fiercely brand loyal to Nexus Hub and I don't care too much about not getting a game day-1. I know other names like BT and Koodoo ship earlier so you get it on release, but I'd never be "that" excited that I must play day-1, life happens
On the other hand, paying an extra R150 every time you order a commercially available title does add up, and I would not blame the average consumer for trying to save some money.

I know I'd feel less off about it if there was a price match, and free delivery at a certain threshold.

I mean if I can save money, why wouldn't I?

Are there circumstances where I would pay that extra without thinking twice about it, yes. In general there's little reason to do so.

That said, touching on Darkwing's point of eBucks, payment options feel like a lot bigger point than the R50 delivery. Lot of places offering rewards, pay later, etc. Those are big pull points for customers.

For niche titles it's okay. Problem is I play mainly bigger titles. Games are expensive enough as is. If I can save 50 bucks, use my ebucks (which some retailers allow) then I'm definitely going with another retailer.

Basically if I have to choose between paying delivery or not I'm going to go for not paying for delivery. On top of that, I find my Nexus orders are usually delayed. I don't think I've ever received a game on release day which is annoying when you're paying extra for delivery especially. And often you have to ask where it is which I don't think the customer should have to do, that's part of customer service.

How much would "free delivery for orders over R 1000" affect your decision to more purchases from Nexus Hub?

The first issue of Injustice that came with the games CE, is not complete.
I don't know why they did that. It doesn't say anywhere that it was just a preview. You have to buy the actually first issue #1, to get the complete issue.
They did Injustice Year 0-5. I have all the year ones now, & the first issue of Year 2.
Also picked up The Killing Joke Deluxe Edition. Had the normal TP, but traded it.

1 - FINALLY got a PS5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $1000 ;-( still less than my sis paid for my nephew in SA (R18k with accessories).
Unfortunately had to purchase from a scalper coz n Asia, most retail workers are buying the consoles up at retail $729 and reselling them for $1000-$1500 online, you can only get one online now, waiting lists have closed and stores have stopped taking pre-orders coz they all have 12month waiting lists and have no confirmation from Sony SEA if and when they are getting stocks. Even the new Switch QLEDs are sold out and on scalper sites only.

Felt great finally getting it and then you feel bored when you see the lack of games available. Hot Wheels Unleashed and Death Stranding were first PS5 game pick ups along with Spiderman. Now just really waiting for Horizon Forbidden West in Feb/March.

2 - Powergirl from Sideshow (May 22)
3 - Superman Maquette from Sideshow (Dec 21)

4 - Metal Build Strike Rouge Gundam + ootori striker (Dec 21)
5 - Metal Build Justice Gundam (Arriving in Feb 22)

Not today but last week. Needed a new system so picked up:
Ryzen 9 5900X
Aorus X570 Pro + WiFi mobo
16 GB of Corsair Vengeance 3600Mhz DDR4 Ram
Corsair RM850x PSU
Corsair 4000D Airflow case
3xCorsair LL120 RGB fans
1TB WD black m.2 SSD

Haven’t bought a GPU because the prices on those things are just stupid so transplanted my 1080 into the brew system.

But out this weekend and it is fast and stable af. Very happy with this build

Sniper Contracts 2 and in fit of capitalist decadence I bought the Bioshock Collection digitally just so I don't have to go and look for the discs (it was so cheap).. BTW the installed versions synced with the digital licence so I didn't even have to DL them again.

PS5's don't exist here and after 4 months of trying to order one I'm over it and just picked up one of these, they are so cheap here (R4800) so it's an easy decision. Will grab a PS5 when Sony decides to start making them again, for now at least I can play Elden Ring.







Also able to grab a Detolf Cabinet, arriving tomorrow, have wanted one of these for ages



New Laptop, desk and long mouse pad. Still need to get some pictures for the wall, detold cabinets will go on each side, so a bit of work still do to with the area but it's getting there.
