its not even worth updating the list any more....they're sold out anywhere from 5 seconds to 5 minutes from when they're listed on the site...get up then and be quick on the draw or you're outta luck

Contra is already gone, that was the game I wanted most :cry:

Thanks though, I'm going to pick up Burnout and Legaia 2 to ease my pain.

Picked up:

Legaia 2
Armored Core 2
Contra
Commandos 2
The Thing

Missed out on Breath of Fire 2 and Doom II for gba, and Baldurs Gate for Xbox..

Been wanting Legaia 2 and Commandos 2 for a long time... Guess we should check CC.com every morning from now on?

i got my hands on about 8 different games....contra being one of them....i knew they'd sell out too quick to be greedy, so i only had time to buy 1 of each for now

07-13-2004, 06:30 AM
Did anyone else notice this? I had 5 things in my cart and it wouldn't let me add anymore. The ones above that were sold out anyway, but did anyone else see that? Would be nice if they actually did limit you on the website.

I got in quick and had a dozen items in my cart but didn't have an existing account. By the time I had the account set up (two minutes?) my cart was down to two items. Going back and reselecting stuff for a following order worked for a few more items.

With free shipping this is just as good as in-store shopping for all I care.

According to my account status I was able to order (in two separate orders) The Taz Wanted for Xbox, GBA Mickey Mouse something or other, PS2 Harry Potter and Armored Core 2.

I could try for other but the one I actually want or don't have are a small subset of the list and there is much competition for those it appears.

I think Contra just became available again... I just added it to my cart and everything... but still debating over if I should buy it or not....

Edit: oh yeah, thanks OP... finally I can get Legaia 2 again... I snatched the last copy from all 4 of the CC's around my area, and had it stolen from me by my cousin... grrrrrr.... but now I can finally get my hands on it again.

Edit 2: NOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Just got done creating my acccount and now it's telling me Legaia 2 is OOS... damn bastards are toying with me!

Bitching. Was able to get the Thing on XB. Super-awesomeness TC.

EDIT: DAMN!!! The total for one game is $5.36, and after the Thing, I only have $5.01 in my debit account!!! I wanted to try for another game. Oh well...

Hey thanks for the heads up. I got WWE Smackdown, Jedi StarFighter and the Italian Job (PS1). I'll definitely get my $5 worth out of those games! Too bad breath of fire 2 is out of stock. I was curious about that one...

epobirs
07-13-2004, 06:45 AM
Odd that they taken the time to mark Fairly Oddparents out of stock but make you go through several screens to get the real status of more desired items like Contra and the Jedi Outcast on GC.

Surely CC knows we (actually trustcompany1013 and some lucky insomniacs) are always watching. Can't they be more on the ball updating instead of encouraging us to pound the crap out of their servers?

I did too. It's just that another game will cost me another $5.36, and I only have $5.01 left to spend after ordering the Thing. :cry:

ANOTHER EDIT: This is so unfair. First, I don't have enough money when the game IS available. I went to check my balance again, and a recent Paypal transfer went through, so I now have $12 more bucks in the account, and now the games I wanted AREN'T available. ](*,)

I missed them again. My internet was down since early yesterday evening. I would've definitely been on this site when these deals popped up. Jedi Outcast for GC would've been nice. Glad to hear some people got in on it though. It seems like CC just keeps posting deals in groups. So there are probably more to come but who knows when. Late at night seems like their preference.

I would doubt that they will restock those exact games. They might have other titles that will pop up within the next few days though.

To anyone that wanted Sub-Rebellion: I have an extra sealed unit that is available for $10 plus shipping. I wasn't paying proper attention and accidentally won two auctions on eBay several months ago so I just want to get original cost back.

I noticed that they took some of the $5 games down, as in not listing them (RE:CVX, MMX7) Maybe the games still left have achance at restock or maybe the ones taken off will be put back up.

I also noticed TMNT for $15, not the best price, but I've looken for a deal on it.

Why doesn't Circuit City have a 'mail me when this item becomes available' option, like every other reputable online store.

I planned on staying up 'till about 6AM anyway, so I guess I've got nothing better to do than stare at the Circuit City page.

Why doesn't Circuit City have a 'mail me when this item becomes available' option, like every other reputable online store.

Um, they do have a "Notify Me" email option for when the games become available. The option is right below the availablity check.

I see it. But only on the search page, and not the actual game page.

Which doesn't make much sense to me, unless it's on the game page too and I'm missing it.

No, your hands turned black from shaking Satan's hands at the conclusion of the contract you signed to get contra in this deal. You just didn't notice it until later because it's like acme's patented "Disappearing, Reappearing Ink"

On the other hand, my copy of Tony Hawk did have a bunch of price change stickers on it, so it was probably around for a while as well.

The DBz game sold out quickly. Probably only had one copy.

Trust, its not a joke. That's just me wishing it was there.

Not $4.99, but they have Omega Boost (good game) for the PS1 at $9.99.

Also, for the 2 people out there who don't have it, GTA III for the PS2 at $9.99.

Just got my copy of Munch's Oddysee in the mail (Big Oddworld fan) and the GBA box is completely crushed and flattened. I also remember when they had NBA Street Vol. 2 on sale, I ordered it, and the disc spindle was busted, and the disc was loose in the case. CC.com has some real rocket scientists working in the warehouse, I tell ya.

If you haven't already, a word of advice.....DON'T open the Muchy's Oddysee GBA. Return it to the store. I also am a big oddworld fan but that version is just plain terrible, I tried to play it for about 30 minutes and gave up, traded it soon after. I felt so bad, my mother wanted something to get me for my birthday and I told her that game, she got it at EB, last copy, opened, box crushed, 29.99 :( .

Why would anyone buy that game? It got horrible reviews everywhere. Just because a game is $5 doesn't mean it's worth buying. :shock:

Got the Ps2 half (Harry Potter and Armored Core 2) of my order today in addition to the two Xbox games that came last week. So the heads-up was real handy.
