Looking for a specific ps3 game, which is sold only in Japan.
Kidou senshi gundam extreme vs.

I've found one location that sells it for $105 cad but only at Aberdeen mall on the 3rd level beside the food court selling those capsule figures and etc.

Anyone know of any other locations that sells Japanese ps3 games? Thx.

StylinRed 06-25-2012 04:07 PM

just order it from japan? and use one of those shipping services to get it mailed to you?

J-Chow 06-25-2012 05:42 PM

I'd prefer locally if I can find one, but wanted to see if there are any other places that sells Japanese ps3 games because iirc eb, bb and fs don't carry foreign games lol

StylinRed 06-25-2012 05:54 PM

there used to be a place in metrotown they were located where that swatch store is by metropolis but they closed down i think

but i think that shop that sells the anime toys/etc offers video games too next to the arcade

but i haven't walked down that side of metrotown in ages so im not sure if they're still there lol ;)

does anyone know where i can go to get some hub centric rings? size 73.1 - 66.1

I can order online but not sure how good they are, or does it really matter what they made out of plastic or steel?

You can buy a full wrap for your Macbook Air for about 50 bucks from Wrapsol:

Not sure where you can buy locally though :(

Tire shops either have them or can order them in. Try RS Sponsors first. If no luck, Volco Tires usually have various sizes on hand.

Superstore/No Frills.


Whenever I need lots of ice, I phone the local McDonald's and ask the manager if I can get a cooler filled with ice. They will sometimes say yes, but want donation made to Ronald McDonald House. I give 10 bucks. It's a win win.

Buy an ice machine from costco for $180 and you won't have to worry about buying it again. That's what I did for at home and its great for parties.
