Xbox 360 version is 165$

You might wanna add PS3 to the title just to make it more clear.

[Foo228]

actually both the 360 and ps3 versions are $150 now

it's the ps2 version that's higher which is weird...btw it's at $156

edit: no wonder it's at a premium for ps2, it's the system's top selling game on amazon

%$^#%^$# A week too long for a price $20 price adjustment. (Shipped 12/18)

[decon]

IS Special Edition the one where they fixed the drum breakage issue?

[espionage]

cool thanks op. I ordered this from Amazon about 2 weeks ago and called in for the easy $20 refund (Amazon customer service: 1-800-201-7575 and hit 7)

[msane]

IS Special Edition the one where they fixed the drum breakage issue?

No. Its just the bundle. And yes, I realize you were probably just being sarcastic, but its free to RMA the drums so its not a HUGE issue. But I agree is does suck (I just RMA'd my cracked drum pedal and Strat this week.)

[yuffiestrife]

Patience is a virtue. Thanks OP, just ordered one.

[Omniscia]

Awesome. It's just shy of 30 days since my order, so I'm still within the window.

[Bazz]

Thanks, for the heads up.

[tenaciousjack]

FYI, mine shipped in mid December, and they just gave me the refund. it never hurts to ask.

[lionheart4life]

Seems like a great price, but I'm debating if I'll be able to find it cheaper anywhere before my 360 gets sent back from repair.

[KingofOldSchool]

As tempting as that sounds and with my $25 GC, I'll past and just wait to get the drums and game seperately through youfree360games.com

[suko_32]

Thanks, got a price adjustment and the CR gave me an extra $5 because I don't think she's too good at math.

[frankmackeyspam]

Thanks for the heads up. I bought Rock Band PS3 from them in late December. Price match here I come!

[1YOUNG1]

Thanks, OP. I've been waiting for this price drop.

[BBaur77]

When I click on it it says its at $170. What is up with that?? Is it over already??

[egonpax]

Ditto for me too.

[abhinav]

What the hell, don't tell me this is over already...

[evophile]

What the hell, don't tell me this is over already...

Yeah I was just going to get it too.

What happened with the PS3 version was that warehouse deals had a listing for $149.40 first. It then disappeared, but Amazon themselves dropped their price to $149.99. Now that's gone.

Warehouse deals still has a listing for the 360 version at $149.40. It's a subsidiary of Amazon, so it's free shipping and eligible for Prime. It's listed as open box blah blah, but I bought a PS3 that had a similar description from them and it came new basically.

[Ice2Dragon]

Costco has the same price, but with tax. Meh -_-V Im surprised that amazon allows free shipping with this lol

[idlehand]

Ack! Looks like it is over ; ;

[espionage]

yeah looks like it's over but strangely, J&R is selling the 360 box for $150. Too bad they charge $25 shipping, effectively killing their "deal"

so it is new but damaged? it also says missing battery? does rock band use a battery for anything?

The box has minor damage, according to their description. My PS3 was also described as open box with damage to the outer box. Basically the box showed some wear, but the stuff inside was new. And my guess is that the batteries are just some standard ones that you can use for the guitar (I think).

[boyward]

Back up to $169.99 for the 360 version.

even though i hate buy, i just picked this up with google checkout and free shipping for 149.95, thanks.

[idlehand]

Just got the 360 Version from Buy with that Coupon for $151.95 Shipped Free. Ill take it :)

[radjago]

J+R dropped the price on theirs to $149.99 for a weekend sale, but they charge about $25 for ground shipping, so you're better off buying it from Amazon for $169.99 with free shipping. I think this is where the confusion came from.

Shiiiiiit. I was hoping to stack that with GCO and get it for $141 but no dice.

[tokitoki50]

AH if only I had 150 bucks lying around..

[Cyb3-rr]

Was wondering about that myself. You've tried it?

does not work.

if you do the coupon, it appears in your basket and google checkout button greys out.

remove the coupon from your basket and google checkout comes back.

[MorPhiend]

I knew I should have checked CAG before my 8am class. I have a $35 GC for Amazon and a $25 TRU GC, but have been very patiently waiting for a deal like this at one of these two places. I would have loved to have snagged this for $115, no tax and free shipping.. :(

[oxidative]

This is not dead for me. I see it for $147.99 with free super saver shipping. I was able to add it to my cart. I wish I had the $ :(

edit: the 360 version.

[abreed]

Yeah, 360 is still at $147.99. EDIT: The PS3 is $147.99 too... It is not dead!

I ordered mine at about 11am today (EST). $147.99 shipped with no tax, you can't beat that until Rock Band 2 I bet.

[liquidgraffiti]

This is def. not dead. I just ordered 1 for the PS3 @ $147.99 around 10 pm eastern.

So go get it before it goes back up :D

Thanks TC.

[Serpentor]

Can somebody tell me what do they mean by special edition? is it b/c it comes with two guitars or something?

Experience 4 music games in 1--master lead guitar, bass guitar, drums, and vocals

[sasukekun]

[sasukekun]

Yes, I use the wireless 360 (Les Paul) Guitar on Rock Band.
