All PS2 games on this rack are $2.00 and free jampack with purchase

Thats pretty much it. There were some psp games too such as rocky balboa, sims 2, and some sports titles but I really didn't care much for them.

What Best Buy is this?

[doc005]

where was this Best Buy?

[Skylander7]

Were they on tables with sticker dots on them? You may have come across one of the local clearances.. also, were they being discounted manually at the register, or were they ringing up at this price? I'd throw a YMMV on this one, sounds like another one of those sporadic store-by-store BB sales.

There hasn't been a real massive clearance in a long time.. boy do I miss the few $4.99 blowouts of old.

LoTL came out on the 360?!

Yeah, we need a really awesome clearance from some store. Best Buy's earlier clearance sale this year was horrible and Circuit City's summer clearance wasn't that good either.

I was at Best Buy today and did not see this clearance. That was at the Totowa, NJ store. I wanted to get Just Cause (XBOX) for $4.99 but it came up $29.99.

[kevzik]

Odd. My BB had what looks to be a YMMV clearence for the first time today. Had 50% off signs posted. Nothing too special though.

[Vinny]

This sounds super YMMV... I should check out my BB, I haven't been there in almost a year.

It's only $4.99 as a frontlane game

[NightNinja7]

Hmm... I'll go check BB soon then :/

and if they do have it... >_> better start cancelling the buy.com order... lol

[62t]

good luck finding it cause my BB doesnt have Tales of Abyss since last year

[hero101]

I better check too.

[NightNinja7]

Colma, CA doesn't have Tales... better yet, I didn't even see a clearance box lol.

[linkpwns]

I want this game, I should check it out

[Slim Gatsby]

I'll check my local store, but how much would you want to pick me up and ship me a copy of TotA?

[ZerotypeX]

how much would you want to pick me up and ship me a copy of TotA?

ditto

[NightNinja7]

Huh, Geary St. Best Buy in SF has it for 39.99...

its really ymmv :/

[rishiraja]

Its located in Colorado and all the games were on a seperate clearance rack. The games also had a small yellow sticker on them and when I bought it up to the register for check out they manually discounted Tales of Abysss to $2.00 mentioning that every single PS2 clearance game on the cart was $2.00 plus a free jampack vol.15 was give with each ps2 game purchase.

[unforeseen]

Seems odd that they would sell all 360 and Wii games for 1/2 off.

[Wario64]

LoTL came out on the 360?!

Battle for Middle Earth, the RTS game

[prateeko]

Damnit, I just bought Tales of the Abyss for $35 two-three weeks ago. If this is indeed the case, I wanna go back and get some money back!

Where specifically?

[Zenithian Legend]

I'm pretty sure BB is kind of like Walmart in the sense that the individual store managers determine what goes on clearance. Thus, I don't anticipate many of you lucking out like the OP did. Still never hurts to try, so long as you've got a BB or two in your area.

I tried looking for Tales of the Abyss at the BB in Sunnyvale, but they didn't have a copy, and it wasn't likely that it'd be clearanced at $2 anyway. I think I'll call the Santana Row BB tomorrow, asking if they have any copies, first.

#1 rule of CAG - Never call and ask and alert the employees of a possible sale.

Would it hurt just to ask them whether it's in stock? I wasn't going to mention anything about the price.

When checking stock likely they will see the price.

Good luck getting the actual city in Colorado out of the OP, and good luck hunting.
