Rainbow Six 3 DVD Strategy Guide XBOX

That was pennied out at my local GameStop at least 4 months ago, so a lot of these are probably going to already be gone.

Nice...... Thank you. I want the Beyond Good and Evil guide. I'll make a stop by my local Gamestop this week.

Picked up 2 mint copies of Crash Nitro Kart but that's it. I am thinking of stopping by another GS on the way home, but I wonder if the guides will even be 1 cent there. In the past 1 cent guides were still 1st place there. Anyone know if this is 100% across the board?

I was able to grab Metroid: Zero Mission. The look on the cashier's face was priceless.

I couldn't find anything else on the list there besides Legend of Zelda Windwalker. Unfortunately, I already have that so I left it for another lucky gamer.

Thanks MrMaddness!

Wow, thanks for the list, I see about 6 guides I want there, a shame that my Gamestop has NONE of these, because I went a few days ago and had none of these... :(

I REALLY want some of those guides, too...

The SMBA 4 guide and SW Rebal Strike guides didnt' ring up for a penny.

Scored 1 copy of Zero Mission on the way home...

They should have...this is for all stores. Were they the Nintendo Players Guides? Nintendo always drops the price of their game guides pretty quick.

I wouldve loved to have gotten a copy of Final Fantasy Origins, but theres no local game stores in my area at all :s

If you can find any of them you are REALLY lucky. BEcause the night before when we change the prices on them we are actually supposed to destroy them by ripping them up. Seriously.

I checked Beyond Good & Evil, Viewtiful Joe, P.N.03, and Onimusha Tactics guides (all Brady), and they all rang up at $3.99. What's up with that?

They might have been used, although they have $1.99 stickers on the used guides in GS stores near me. I've actually gotten PN03, VJ and OT for 0.01 there so I know those were pennied out a while ago (and posted on the original 0.01 guides thread).

i am very upset. i went to check out this deal at the closest Gamestop, about 20 minutes away. what a wasted trip! I pulled a couple of the guides that should be a penny, but he wouldn't give them to me for a penny. he told me, "we accept used guides as trade-in credit, so it wouldn't make sense for us to sell you strategy guides for a penny, just so you could trade them back in for store credit." I ended up going home with none.

and there were 10-15 guides I found that were on the .01 list!!!

...right

so i tried to get sword of mana and mario & luigi guides, and both rang up 14.99. I don't think this is universal, should be YMMV.

jshorr
07-02-2004, 11:34 PM
1 cent guides are always YMMV nomatter what because the stores can refuse to sell them to you. It is at 90% of gamestops probably and will eventually get to the rest, but one of the gamestops near me also is very slow to have them drop to 1 cent.

I went to Gamestop and ask the clerk to check YU GI OH DUNGEON DICE monster guide. The clerk pause for a bit looking at the screen and then answered: "It's $14.99".

I think he's looking at a $0.01 price on the screen and surprised, then try to make up a price.

Jerk clerk!
