Question
Hi i live in England and am
looking to import ghostbusters on xbox 360 as ive heard its region free.
But obviously being from the UK i have no idea what online
American sites can be trusted and are competitive with pricing.
I also need a site that allows shipping to other countries.
Would you please be able to give me a list of websites you'd recommend.

Thanks

Answer
Gday Kayli,

Indeed it is region free......

I would be inclined to go to somewhere you are guaranteed a money back if not shipped.  Like an amazon or Ebay....  (Ebay world market)

According to a lazy 30 second search I did it goes for about $30-$40USD on Ebay...  (Being an Ebay kid I am I would probably get it from there before any other site on the web simply because you can shop around and maybe even find an import copy in you home country.)

Hope this helps...
