    Does anyone know where to obtain a PSN point card in Australia?
    I have no access to a credit card or debit card which leaves out that option.

    wal-mart? best buy? gamestop? kmart?
    Game shops? E-mail someone to send you one(by paying, of course) o_O?
    suspicious net surveys? Electronic stores?

    We do not have those shops here mate.



    ...I've been looking myself, I've yet to see any psn point cards, I've seen the nintendo and microsoft cards, best bet is to ask eb games prehaps if they know (as you'd assume they'd stock them-not that I seen but worth a shot)



    Or ask someone with a credit card.



    ...there is my option though, if you got yout own bank account and have a bank card, ask the bank to switch to one of those mastercard debit cards, I got mine free...no fee's and it finctions the same as a credit card, it just let's you shop online and works over seas, thanl god common wealth offer's this in my case LOL!

    High point game traders, but checking on the website or calling local stores could help.

    I'd still say a mastercard debit card is a good option, but I'm guessing that's out of the question.

    I've only seen one in victoria...(australia).

    Dunno if other's are about.

    Awesome I need to buy some dlc.
    Hey buying things online with a ps3 should be awesomely safe shouldn't it?

    If done by the psn store, and your ps3 isn't modded, AND you don't plan on transfer data from one console to another, should be fine...



    Also, I THINK there is a sony store there, best look it up on the net with htis google term with an australian search...

    "sony central"


    See hpow it goes, i hate to see you go all that way incase I'm wrong about sony central...but highpoint shopping centre's game traders store would be safe, and any near you, I'd ring and ask...

    But that's from the last time I went, not sure if it was...all I knew was it has many sony products...


    I'd just take the time to pop into highpoint's game trader's personally, it's a 50min drive, and about the same by train from hoppers crossing.


    I think-I don't look at the time on trains because I'm always late :p
