| ChoicesUK Going Into Administration ChoicesUK has called in the administrators. They're blaming "piracy". I'd blame rising costs of living in the UK ahead of piracy, personally, but hey. Thought it was worth mentioning as they may have some odd prices on their website in future - some risky bargains, perhaps.  |

| Re: ChoicesUK Going Into Administration They are expensive anyway so its no loss. £39.99 fot UT3 £29.99 for Quakewars. Just a couple of examples why they are probably going bust.....they arent competing. Those That Wish To Judge A Man Should Walk A Mile In His Shoes |

| Re: ChoicesUK Going Into Administration Very surprising as when they do have bargains they are great i.e. a month ago Point blank on DS and Bomberman Land Touch on DS both for £10 each. Also seems like their rebranding from choices direct didn't work! Woohoo now Assistant Manager!  |

| Re: ChoicesUK Going Into Administration That's a real shame - usually very good prices and really rapid delivery. They also offered really decent trade in prices on the high street provided you exchanged for credit in store not cash.

| Re: ChoicesUK Going Into Administration I don't think choicesuk will go bust. They have ultra cheap prices (some better then their competitors), but they take AGES for delivery (2 weeks!!) |

| Re: ChoicesUK Going Into Administration I blame high prices. Who wants to pay £3.75 for a "Top Title" DVD for 3 nights"? Put the prices down to £2 for 2 nights and I might visit more often. |
