So here in Italy console games are expansive.
They are, for the basic version of the game, 70 €. All of them. Always, excluding some minor titles released as budget titles.
Buying from Amazon.co. uk grants us to spare around 25-30€ for each games.
Now Italy has been cutted off from the Super Saver Delivery supported countries.
It's simply a shame.
Not too much time ago I read a news that here in Italy videogames were sold poorly, because many people buy them (of course) from Uk...and now we can't.
Of course, we can buy a game, but with delivery shipping cost the price is almost the same of Amazon.it.
:(

Play PC games. Problem solved. BTW, isn't your country's name "Italia", with an "i" ?

Not only Italy, but also Germany, France, Spain etc. All the countries that have their own amazon store. It's a strategic choice.

Personally I will never use amazon.co.uk anymore, I will only use Zavvi, Play or other uk store.

Try Zavvi.com. They ship for free to Italy and only £0.99 to the rest of the world. Amazon might have better prices, I can't say (because they don't ship here). If you do end up wanting to order from Zavvi, please consider using my referral code (contact me by PM), which will give you a discount (and give me a future discount).

There is a lot of stuff that doesn't work or apply here. Lots of non-book stuff on amazon.com can't be shipped here, the HBO Nordic beta doesn't work here, we can't vote in the Eurovision Song Contest, we can't buy paid apps on the Google Play Store, like wise we can't get any non-app content on Google Play. Music Unlimited and Movies Unlimited don't work here. It is extremely annoying and generally there are no work arounds.
