Howdy all,

I know "Final Fantasy XIII" is still a very new game, but if anyone in the Seoul area is finished with their copy and looking to sell, I am looking to buy. I live in Ansan (just south of Seoul) and could meet in the city/surrounding area. Email or text:

I'll message you when I finish mine, but it will be quite some time haha...I would bite the bullet and order it if you want to play it anytime soon.

You can also go to Songtan. They have a game stop there and they sell US/English games only. I bought my last weekend for ps3. It cost 70,000W brand new. Much cheaper then what yongsan wanted for it, which was 125000W.

Thanks for the tip, Sancho. Can you tell me where the game shop in Songtan is located? Is it near the train station? And do you know the name of the place?

you go to Songtan station, it is on subway line one. You can only get there by the normal subway, not the rapid. Songtan is between Suwon and Pyeongtaek (closer to Pyeongtaek). Once you get out of the station get in a taxi and tell the taxi driver "main gate" (It will only cost you the base taxi fare). There will be a street in front of the US Air force base with many shops around (you can only walk on this street as there are post blocking car access). The name of the store is "Game Stop" and it will be on that street. They take both USD and KRW.

If you get lost the phone number for the store is 031-663-6898 and the cell number is 010-5198-1264.

They are open 11AM - 8PM everyday.

There are also many shops to find rare foods in korea such as limes, avocados, etc.

There are many different types of restaurants around also.

This better not be a cruel April fools joke Sancho?

believe me, I would find that in poor taste myself because I know how hard it is to get games that work on our home consoles or get games like this with English in Korea.

This link is a picture I took of the store sign when I first discovered it.

Unfortunately it does not give the address on the picture but you can see that there is a a little hangeul around.

Thanks for the info, Sancho. I wonder if that is an official GameStop like the franchise back in America? Looks like there might be a run on FFXIII this weekend!
