Title: Good deals on the DSi
Post by: Equinox on October 06, 2009, 11:04:10 AM
I've been looking around at DSi Prices online. The best I've seen so far is from my favourite little site, FishPond who are selling for $277.95, which can be made cheaper if you spend a few hours doing customer rewards schemes and so on. So in the end, you could potentially get it for around $250. Anyway, that's the best deal I've seen online, what have you seen? Equinox. And a bit of blatant advertising here, if you'd like to buy the DSi from FishPond (or anything else for that matter ;)), by all means, follow my affiliate link: - http://www.fishpond.com.au/product_info.php?ref=1509&products_id=15343433&affiliate_banner_id=1
