Official Gamecube Controllers - £12.87 In Dixons

Even though I loathe Dixons for abandoning the Gamecube, they do have some bargains in the Accessories department for the console - 20% off marked prices - Official memory Cards get reduced to £8 (59 space), Official Controllers are £12.87 and Wavebird £22.41 - Not bad prices, amusing to see them advertising Metroid Prime as Coming soon with loads of dummy boxes on the counter and yet the shelves are bare!

Stevewxm, which Dixons did u see that price? Because I went to the Dixons store on oxford street last sunday and they had a bluecross sale on Gamecube accss and the price was what u mentioned, when I went there again yesterday, the price had gone up again to £15.98. Dixons in moorgate (london-city) where I work, the price is £15.98 with a 20% discount.

Its the Broughton Park Retail Park Nr Chester, there was signage under every item saying 20% off marked prices - The Controller I bought was £15.98 initially and was a bit dubious until the Cashier put it through the till and sure enough - £12.87! Dixons are pretty well known for there horrendous price markings though, different in every store! I.E.Not in the Wrexham Branch!

They were still the usual price in my local Dixons. Anyone know where I can get them cheap online?

I just picked one up for £12.87 in the Meadowhall branch, too. They have the 20% off all Gamecube accesories offer on.

Picked up one in the Perth branch for £12.87 today, they also had RGB scart cables for £7.98 - that should work out at £6.40ish

Got myself a used Pikmin as well, such good fun!

This Gamecube was a great bargain!
