Holy Cow...man that's incredible :) Granted about half of the replies are my own, replying to price requests or just thanking you guys in general. What's perhaps even more impressive though is that we have 42,778 views as of today... The service is only 6 months old, which I think says a lot for the service ^_^

Thanks for everything guys :) I obviously couldn't do any of this without you. I hope that you like the new site revisions once they're up (again, I'm aiming for 11/14/08 for the bulk of it to be up and running). Until then, keep those custom orders coming in. Thanks!!

[goomba478]

Hey guys, not sure if you're interest or not, but today in Amazon's Gold Box they are offering "The Corpse Bride" on Blu Ray for only $17.05 ($22.05 USD shipped to you) or Kill Bill 1 & 2 Blu Ray set for $38 ($45 USD shipped to you). Both of these are way lower than MSRP's.

On the new site I'm working on I plan to have a "Items that you might be interested in" section. I'm not sure how I'm going to implement it yet, but look out for that soon :)

[Azumangaman]

The CDN dollar is coming back up.
45 USD = 51 CDN.
Thats a bit too much, and I've heard the Kill Bill movies don't look as good as they should in HD. If they did, I'd be PMing you right now.
Good deals though.

[goomba478]

Yes, I'm very happy that the CAD is going back up. Hopefully for both of our sakes it gets close to the 1 to 1 ratio that we had a few months back :)

Is that really true about the Kill Bill movies? That's a shame...I really liked both of them and was hoping to add them to my collection. Guess I'll just be picking up Corpse Bride then for myself :) I'm a huge animation nut and my goal is to get all the greats on Blu Ray. Now I don't feel so bad for not buying them on DVD back in the day ^_^ Sometimes it's good to be a procrastinator.

[danthemightyone]

Corpse Bride has been on my want list so long.... I would have gone for it without thinking if exchg rate were near on par....

[Jest]

Its better for the Canadian economy when our dollar is lower. :-P More US jobs come up here then. Lower oil prices = lower CAD. Atleast our economy isn't suffering like you guys down there. That means we can get some pretty good deals on clearance sales from excess US inventory that people aren't buying because of the economic downturn.

[Azumangaman]

Actually goomba, it appears I was thinking about something else. The extras aren't very good apparently, but Blu-Ray.com gives both Kill Bill vol.1 and 2 5stars(out of 5) on both Video and Audio quality.

They both have high ratings from pretty much every site. DAMN, I want them now...

...must hold back

Goomba, not to try and steal sales from you or anything, but Kill Bill vol.1 and vol.2 are 19.99 each at Future Shop. I was expecting them to be A LOT more.

Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be getting something from you before the years end.

[goomba478]

Oh okay that's cool then Azumangaman. It kind of sucks the extras aren't better, but as long as video and audio are good I may have to pick them up for myself :)

[muzras]

CanadaCAGz oil went up today ~$8 a barrelz (big move) good for ye z:Dz

US Dollar weakening.
USD $1 to ~1.15 CAD. (was at $1 to 1.30 CAD a week ago)

zzz z zzzzzzz zz zzzz zz z z z zzz :D :applause:

[afterburn999]

Goomba i just wanted to make sure you got my payment ?

[Firestorm]

How much would this (http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=208937616) take to ship to Canada after this (http://www.buy.com/retail/coupon.asp?prid=84773074) promo? And how long? >.> I'd need PGR4 by the end of the month so I could take advantage of EB's trade in promo =( The code would be emailed. Just need the game + messenger pad.

I'd like to know this as well.

[AJD23]

Hey goomba, how much would this Band of Brothers Blu-Ray (http://www.amazon.com/Band-Brothers-Blu-ray/dp/B00129H7VS/ref=pd_zg_lm_w_2p_r?pf_rd_p=439777701&pf_rd_s=right-6&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_i=193640011&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=019AA6Z0QW97QXXJQQXS) cost shipped in total?

[kathos]

Goooooooooooooooooooooombaaaaaaaaaaaa

I hope my GoW2 Lancer is getting shipped tomorrow :D:D:D:D:D:D:D, I have big puppy eyes now, I can't WAIT for the game!

I just came back from my midnight shift for the GoW2 launch, we were playing Horde mode for a while, awesome stuff.

[goomba478]

Afterburn999, Yes I did get your payment thanks! I ordered the Flavor Drops for you. I'll ship them out as soon as they come in as always :)

Kathos yes I just got an Email from Amazon saying it was shipped with UPS Tracking number: 1ZV953560364307421 (feel free to track it) ^_^

AJD23, The Band of Brothers Blu Ray Set would be $63 USD Shipped including everything.

Firestorm, it'd be $62 USD Total for you (please note that I need to know if you want it or not because if not I'd like to use the 5% coupon for something else. It's only one use per customer). Thanks!

[kathos]

Is it getting delivered to my place or is it going to yours then mine? Probably the latter right?

[goomba478]

Yes, it's on its way to my house first of course. It will take roughly 5 days I expect to get to you up in Canada once I get it here in the US. You'll have it soon enough my friend :)

[kathos]

Gaaah so yours by 11th and hopefully mine by the 16th, nine days *dies*.

[goomba478]

Well if you like you can always rent the game in the meantime :) If it makes you feel better, it'll probably be less than that overall. Shipping from Amazon is usually very fast and I'll likely have to ship Priority to you due to the size of the item and weight, so you'll likely have it in 7 days or less I'd guess-timate. Hang in there buddy.

[goomba478]

Kathos: Great News! UPS Just delivered your Lancer and Limited Edition GOW2! So you should get them sooner than you thought ^_^ I'm going to go ship them right away. Thanks again!

[Firestorm]

Ah it's okay goomba. $73 CAD it would come up to which is a bit much :(

[goomba478]

No problem Firestorm :) I'm sure someone else will find something they'd like with the 5% off. If the CAD was stronger it'd be more tempting I'm sure ^_^

[Tenren]

Hello Goomba! Do you have any Xbox Live Gold codes? 12 or 13 month, doesn't matter.

[goomba478]

I sure do! I just bought 4 more this week as a matter of fact. I have both in stock:

$42 USD - 12 Month XBL Code
$44 USD - 13 Month XBL Code

if you want one, just send the amount of money listed above to jjparks@improcomics.org using non-credit card Funds on Paypal. If you have any questions be sure to ask :) I'm off from work tonight so I'll send you the code within an hour of receiving your payment. Thanks!

[Tenren]

Awesome! Done!

[goomba478]

Tenren, thanks for your fast payment! I'm going to PM you the XBL code now ^_^ I appreciate it! Hope to do business with you again in the near future :)

[AJD23]

Alrighty goomba, I'll put that blu-ray on hold for now. Just hoping that our dollar does a miraculous jump soon :lol:
Do amazon.com prices usually stay the same after the product actually releases? or no? because if it goes up, I might as well get it now. Let me know please, thanks!

[goomba478]

ADJ23, it really depends. Most of the time Amazon prices stay pretty consistent, but once in a blue moon they do go up. Usually this is when they run out of stock though and sell through third party companies. My guess is most of their prices will stay about where they are, so if you want to wait and see how much higher the CAD goes then by all means :) Let me know!

[kathos]

Yahooooooo horraaaaah, I is so 'appy!

Bzzz bzzzzz bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[killmak]

hey goomba, how much would it cost to get Firefly on Blu-ray off of amazon?

[goomba478]

I am assuming you mean this (complete series - Blu Ray):
http://www.amazon.com/Firefly-Complete-Blu-ray/dp/B001EN71CW/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1226174946&sr=8-2

In that case it'd be $67 USD shipped to Canada including shipping and my $2 service charge. let me know if you're interested. THANKS!

[killmak]

Yup thats what I was looking at, cheaper for me to get off of amazon.ca for now though. If the price changes on amazon.com or the canadian dollar gets better i will send you a pm about it then.

[goomba478]

Yeah if you were in the US it'd be possible to ship Media Mail (cheapest form of mail for heavier items) but these box sets typically cost more to ship due to the added packaging and extra discs. Of course if you were in the US then there'd be no reason to buy from me in the first place :)

Man, I can't wait for the CAD to get its act together again ^_^

[CatBoy]

Goomba,

Can you order Dragon Quest IV on Amazon for me? It's the deal of the day at $20. I already have $25 credit with you, will that cover the cost of the game?

[afterburn999]

hey goomba i just wanted to know if you got a tracking number with the flavor drop order.

[kathos]

Hey Goomba can you give me the tracking number for the Lancer again? I had it and I lost it XD.

[goomba478]

Not a problem CatBoy. I'll order you one and send you that in place of the other game that wasn't available, and we can call it even :) Glad to work it out with you ^_^ Thanks!

[goomba478]

Kathos here you go:

* GOW2 Lancer - Kathos - PAID - SHIPPED 11/7/2008 - CJ297580853US (Priority Mail)

[goomba478]

Guys, this is only available today at this price, but if you're interested it's a GREAT game:

Dragon Quest IV (Nintendo DS) - Brand New/Factory Sealed - $26 shipped. Let me know if you're interested. THANKS!

[game_fanatic]

hey goomba, have you shipped out Haze for me yet? I still haven't received it, I'm wondering if it's still on its way or there was a snafu at the post office. Thanks!

[goomba478]

Yes game_fanatic, I did ship it out. It should get there any day now I'd assume. Lately some of the packages to Canada have been taking a few days longer than normal I've realized as well. Maybe the post offices are a bit behind or something. Give it a few days and let me know...thanks!

[danthemightyone]

Hey, can you order a DQ4 (DS) from Amazon.com today? It's on sale for $20 and you can probably combine the shipping when you are sending me Ar Tonelico 2?

Thanks always.

[maigoyume]

I'd also like DQIV, if you can combine it w/ someone elses order for free shipping that'd be great :)

[goomba478]

I get free shipping from Amazon to the US anyway since I have Amazon Prime. I'll be happy to send some invoices to you guys and I'll make sure to order enough copies. That really is a great deal of the day for once ^_^

[PuppetYuber]

Goooooooooomba, what would the price be for Okami (Sealed) + Fire Emblem (Wii, used) (With shipping including of course)

[goomba478]

PuppetYuber it'd be:

$35 (Sealed Okami Wii) + $24 Fire Emblem + $5 shipping + $3 Service Charge =
$67.00 USD Total including Shipping/Fees. Let me know!

[goomba478]

Anyone interested in the Disgaea DS with Prinny Touch Stylus?

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/618Zl83atxL._SL500_AA280_.jpg + http://www.rosenqueen.com/productimages%5Cgames%5Cdisgaeads%5Cprinnytouchpen 01_thb.jpg = ^_^

There are only 500 left. Likely will sell out today or tomorrow. Let me know! I know dan you wanted one of these and there was some confusion over the order last time. Let me know. I go to work at 6PM tonight so try to get back to me in the next hour or so guys ^_^

[Azumangaman]

Goomba, BB here just dropped Kill Bill to 14.99 each on BluRay. It was awesome.

[danthemightyone]

:P Is this thing still available?

[goomba478]

Rosenqueen just announced they are selling 500 more of the Disgaea DS + Prinny Stylus sets....so it's available only today basically.

[goomba478]

That's awesome Azumangaman. I saw it in Borders the other day selling for almost $40 USD lol what a rip off. I'll wait to buy it myself. I figure it'll be like DVDs and eventually Blu Rays will be $10 and under almost everywhere (some day far in the future). Thanks for the heads up though :) Glad to hear it looks good on Blu Ray!

[goomba478]

Oh one other thing you may be interested in. This is also SUPER limited to only 500. Rosenqueen is offering the following game which is being reprinted and only sold today:

http://www.rosenqueen.com/ProductImages/games/makaikingdom.jpg

Again, very rare game, only 500 being sold. If you want one, you have to order it NOW basically. Just saying...^_^

[danthemightyone]

Hmm.. I am not sure if I want to go for it. I wanted the figure included in the big bundle with Rhapsody more than the stylus thing. It may be a long run but I might be look for some CAGers selling/trading it eventually.

[Azumangaman]

$19.99? What the hell, I'll take MAKKAI KINGDOM. I'm sure it'll be a bit more with extra fees and such but at only 500 copies, I'll grab it.

[goomba478]

For those asking about MAKKAI KINGDOM it is:

$28.00 USD Shipped to Canada (includes shipping charge from Rosenqueen to me in the US as well as shipping/service charge to Canada). Thanks!

[Shazbot]

I was wondering how much it would cost in total to ship a copy of Dragon Quest IV?

[goomba478]

$25 USD shipped for DQIV (DS). For most Amazon items you can just add $5 USD to the total ($3 for shipping and $2 for my service charge). Heavier items obviously will cost more to ship, but most games can be shipped no problem for $3 USD.

Thanks! Let me know Shazbot ^_^

[kathos]

Fuck I wish I had some cash for Makai Kingdom, not interested in it but I'll most likely want to play it when I get a hankering for a last gen game.

[PuppetYuber]

cool i will let u know :D

[magiic]

I'll take a Makai Kingdom if it it's not too late

[goomba478]

I'm off to work now, but it should be available I'd imagine when I get home tonight. I'll order you one then :) Thanks!

[magiic]

Ok cool. Send me an invoice for it if you get it to have it shipped to my home address.

[ragnar14]

Hmm.. I am not sure if I want to go for it. I wanted the figure included in the big bundle with Rhapsody more than the stylus thing. It may be a long run but I might be look for some CAGers selling/trading it eventually.

Just FYI the figure was kinda cheap and not too special, kinda like a gashapon figure. So you didn't miss out too badly. Not that it was bad, just it wasn't as cool as they made it sound.

[danthemightyone]

Rhapsody also came with bonus too so I really liked that bundle regardless of that. I'm quite a big fan of the Disgaea series - I think I recorded somewhere 200+ hours on Disgaea 1. :P

[Jest]

Hey Goomba. Did you ever receive or ship out that beanie I ordered? If not let me know.

[goomba478]

Yup I sure did Jest. Here is your info for you ^_^

* Headphone Beanie Hat - Jest - PAID - SHIPPED 11/7/2008 - LC746987672US

You should get it probably by the end of the week I'd imagine. Enjoy!

[danthemightyone]

Did you get my email on combined shipping?

[goomba478]

danthemightyone, yeah that's fine with me if you want to combine the shipping. I'll go and revise your item invoice to include it with the other item that you ordered. Thanks!

[danthemightyone]

Thanks. Order me these ones as well if you could and please send me an updated invoice with DQ4 and combined shipping (only if it's cheaper than separate shipping). I don't mind waiting.

http://www.amazon.com/Persona-Amazon-com-Exclusive-Expansion-Playstation-2/dp/B001H14C8C/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1226444800&sr=8-2

[EDIT] Just saw you already sent an updated invoice for DQ4. Sorry for extra work, man. I really appreciate it if you could order those for me.

[maigoyume]

Sent payment for DQIV, thanks goomba :lol:

[goomba478]

danthemightyone, I'd happily order those items for you but keep in mind I would have to send them separately as they would be too heavy altogether to be under the 4 pound limit. If you want me to send you an invoice for those two let me know and I'll send one your way :)

[afterburn999]

any update on my order goomba ?

[danthemightyone]

danthemightyone, I'd happily order those items for you but keep in mind I would have to send them separately as they would be too heavy altogether to be under the 4 pound limit. If you want me to send you an invoice for those two let me know and I'll send one your way :)

I see. Let me know which combination of 4 gives best/cheapest shipping options for me and send me invoices. Thanks.

[goomba478]

afterburn999, I sent you an Email today did you not get it? I got a letter from the company that said the flavor drops were mailed out today to me with Priority Shipping and that expected date of delivery is Thursday, which means I should have them mailed out to you by Friday. Sorry it took long, the company apparently waited a while to ship them out. In any case at least we got the discount with that coupon :) so it's all good. I'll have them out to you as soon as they come in. Thanks!

[goomba478]

danthemightyone, I'll play around with some numbers to calculate the best deal for you on those 4 items :) Should hear back from me in the next day or two. Thanks!

[afterburn999]

oh cool great news thanks again goomba.

[magiic]

I paid. Ship it to Canada as per the invoice. It wont do me much good over here lol

[kathos]

Item has left New Jersey Foreign Shipping Centre on Nove 10th...


A few more days...



bzzzzbzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[goomba478]

Okay magiic, I'll make sure to send it to your Canadian address (I figured that anyway but just wanted to check). You'd be surprised how many people (mostly eBayers) send shipping addresses on Paypal that are different than where they want their goods shipped. Thanks!

Kathos, you're getting close :) Any day now and you'll be in GOW2 heaven ^_^

[goomba478]

Were any of you guys interested in the Survival Editions of Fallout 3? I have the PS3 and Xbox 360 one in stock (brand new and factory sealed) exclusive to Amazon.com. Back when I first started this service a lot of you inquired about it. Wondering if any of you want them before I list them elsewhere. Let me know :) Thanks!

[danthemightyone]

I believe Survival Edition is $50 more than CE for a pipboy clock?

[goomba478]

Yes, I believe that is an accurate statement. Pretty cool clock though if I do say so myself. Definitely worth it for big Fallout fans :) Let me know. This is one of the most requested items I've had, and now that I got one of each I'm hoping someone will buy them ^_^ Otherwise I have to eBay or send them back to Amazon, whichever works out better.

[kathos]

Fuck Goomba you asshole you have all these magical things in stock that I want and would go into debt for but.... GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH XD I want that clock but I bought the game.

[goomba478]

Kathos were you still interested in that Gears of War 2 Headshot Locust Drone figure? I ordered it for you when you requested back in September but Amazon just sent it to me today (only two months later lol). I just realized I never invoiced you for it, so if you want it it's yours, if not then off to eBay it goes as well :) Not trying to be an @$$hole...just my job to sell magical game-related goodies ^_^

[kathos]

Drone figure? I don't think I ordered that one, I'm big on toys but I already have the GoW figures from way back.

And does that tracking number track it after it leaves the US?

[kgroat]

Goomba I'll buy the gears of war figure if kathos doesn't want it, just PM me with what I need to do

[afterburn999]

hey goomba do you know anyway i could get ahold of a gold lancer code for Gears of war 2 ?

[goomba478]

kgroat, PM Me your: Address (mailing address), Email address and your full name and I'll send you an invoice for the item. Do you want me to take pictures of it? It's a pretty awesome figure! Let me know.

afterburn999, outside of eBay I'm not really sure. I don't think you can just buy it seperately right?

[afterburn999]

yea thats what i thought and the ebay prices are ridiculous.

[goomba478]

Actually you've got a point. Since they're selling for so much on eBay it might actually make sense just to list it up there to see if it sells. Granted, after eBay fees I won't make much, but it's worth a shot :) Considering I bought these ages ago and could use the money it might be a nice way to make back a couple hundred quickly and put it towards something else before the holidays. I'll have to look into that ^_^

[goomba478]

kathos, this was the figure I was referring to. Did you already have this one? It said it was US Amazon.com exclusive so maybe they lied:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/4134KdPeY6L._SS500_.jpg

I'm going to send you an invoice now kgroat. Thanks!

[kathos]

Nein I already have that one, they probably lied, the stores in Canada all have this one (Hell FS has been giving them away with the game lately).

[goomba478]

kgroat, if that's the case it may be easier/cheaper for you to just buy it at Futureshop or get it elsewhere in Canada. They're selling for a lot on eBay though so I may sell mine on there in that case. Win/Win for everyone right?

[kathos]

GOOMBA!

I just recieved the GoW2... where the fuck is the gun!?!?!?!??! I really hope you sent it away seperately!

[kathos]

This is how my morning went:

Dad: "Son there's a package for you!"

And I was left... no Lancer.

Pleasepleaseplease tell me I didn't give you $200USD for a game and that you sent the Lancer in a separate package.

[kgroat]

All the FS near me have been sold out of the figure since first day of Gears
:-|
I sent you a PM about some other stuff
:D

[danthemightyone]

It was mostly gone at midnight launches. I thought about picking up two myself, but resisted...

[snowsquirrel]

kathos chillout. maybe shoot goomba a PM calmly asking him, instead of a public freakout.

[kathos]

kathos chillout. maybe shoot goomba a PM calmly asking him, instead of a public freakout.

Not a public freakout, just slight outrage that I received the game but not the Lancer, when both could be shipped at the same time in the same box.

I'm pretty sure any of you would react the same way when you expect a big box but sadly receive only a small one.

Goomba is "Vault Legend" around here (been playing Fallout 3 a lot XD) so I'm sure nothing sketchy went on, but still, slight outrage is there. And I didn't PM 'cause I thought this would reach him faster (I personally don't check PMs/don't even notice them until a few days later) here, since he posts daily.

[goomba478]

Kathos, I told you twice in emails that I was sending them seperately so that you could receive them faster. I figured that the Lancer would get stuck in customs longer due to it's large size, and if I shipped them together it would probably have cost you more in customs. It cost me more money to ship them seperately but I shipped the Lancer with Priority Mail which is supposed to be faster (the game was shipped first class, but since it's small it just likely reached you first).

Of course I didn't shaft you man, I don't run my business like that. The Lancer is in a HUGE package and probably will get to you any day now. Again it's a HUGE package so it likely just took longer in customs. It came in a big box that had no room to fit the game into, so I figured shipping seperately would make the most sense.

Don't worry my friend. You'll have your Lancer very very soon :)

[Princess Zelda]

Kathos
Just incase your lancer doesn't work when you put batteries in read this http://kotaku.com/5085029/replica-gears-lancers-broken-heres-how-you-fix-em

Also you may want to take the pic off that has your address and Goomba's. Have fun with Gear's I'm enjoying it a considerable amount.

You sent me emails? I don't think I got those :S explaining my pre-mature blahs.

You wonderful bastard Goomba, I knew nothing bad was gonna happen (but this is the internet, so you'll have to excuse my outburst). Awesome thanks a lot Goomba, I can breathe a sigh of relief and go back to sleep, enjoy my day off in a long time and zzzzz ~_~;;

[goomba478]

Your outburst is understood and excused :) No hard feelings. Well in the future I guess I'll just try to contact you through here. Seems the Email monster is gobbling up my mails to you and now that we all know you don't check PM's the forum will have to do. I also have an MSN account if you'd like to reach me in the future.

As for the address...yeah your address is in the photo, might not want to give that out. Mine's not as much of an issue since it's a PO Box used for my business, but still. Just relax, enjoy the game for now and know that your Huge Lancer is on its merry way to Canada as we speak (actually it should have reached Canada a while ago, just a matter of getting to your house after customs and all that fun stuff). Thanks for understanding ^_^

[kathos]

Kathos
Just incase your lancer doesn't work when you put batteries in read this http://kotaku.com/5085029/replica-gears-lancers-broken-heres-how-you-fix-em

Yeah I read about that problem, I hear the Amazon Pip-Boys have been having problems too (scratchy paint and non functioning... clocks).

It just sucks I have to mail those guys for a piece of metal but everyone's saying aluminum foil does the trick too, thanks for the heads up.

[goomba478]

Well if there is a problem with the metal piece, I could contact them and mail it to you. I'm sure it's light enough that it would cost next to nothing for me, so it wouldn't cost you anything. Foil seems like it would work though (I used that trick myself as a kid). In any case let me know. I wanna see pictures of the Lancer ;) I didn't open the box obviously as tempting as it was hehe.

[maigoyume]

Hey goomba, I never received an email telling me if DQIV got shipped yet.

Do you mind giving me an update? Thanks in advance :)

[goomba478]

Maigoyume, yes your DQIV shipped out yesterday in fact. Here is the information if you want it:

* Dragon Quest IV (Nintendo DS) - maigoyume - PAID - SHIPPED 11/12/2008 - LC746990552US

Just so you know, I don't typically mail out messages saying when packages have shipped only because I have so many of them and it takes a lot of time. Instead I have been doing weekly updates here in the forums of all the orders and of course if people inquire like you did then I answer them directly :) In the future I plan to incorporate an order tracker on the improved GamesForCanada.com site (still in development).

The World Poker Tour just ended at my casino so I'll be having more time to devote to the site. I still have nearly 450 games to sell through my eBay site, so once I get all that backlog of old games sold then I plan to focus 90% of my energy on GamesForCanada.com. The site is already receiving orders from Australia, Russia, England and elsewhere so people are visiting it even though I have almost no updates and little content on there. So imagine once I get things running :) It's exciting!

[danthemightyone]

Hmm. I was looking at deal forum and Eye of Judgement with PS EYE, starter deck, booster deck is on clearance for $15 at WalMart. If you happen to find some, I'll take one :)

[maigoyume]

Ah I see. Thanks for the heads up :) wasn't sure since I didn't get any kind of confirmation.

[goomba478]

danthemightyone, the PS Eye and Eye of Judgment sales are EXTREMELY YMMV. I've looked all over every time a forum posts about one of these sales and have never seen one in the wild. I'll definitely pick one up if I see it, but don't count on it.

Maigoyume, you're welcome. The game looks great by the way ^_^

[danthemightyone]

I'm well-aware of that and didn't really expect much, but I had to ask anyway. :D

[goomba478]

Persona 2 (PSX) - Brand New! Only $39.99 CAD.... wow! Limited time Atlus is offering reprint. Check out my page for more details (and get a sneak preview of the new GamesForCanda.com). Please note links are active but much of the site content is not yet live. Check it out and let me know what you think so far:

http://gamesforcanada.com/new/persona-2-psx.html

[danthemightyone]

Webpage looks very weird on my firefox 2.0.0.16 (RedHat). A bunch of banners like ebay, neweggs are off alignment..

[goomba478]

Oh really? Well like I said it's not done yet. That's weird though. Could you possibly send me a screenshot? I'm working with CSS and so far on all of my browsers it's looked correct. Thanks ^_^ (By the way, grab this game before it's gone...I'm going to order like 10 copies myself cuz I've been looking for a sealed copy FOREVER now).

[goomba478]

Here is what the new page SHOULD look like. Just to give you an idea. Note the member login is not yet active nor are some of the links, but the Services/Store/Blog links on top DO work as do the store links (at least they should):

http://www.gamesforcanada.com/new/images/gfc-preview.jpg (http://www.gamesforcanada.com/new/persona-2-psx.html)

[danthemightyone]

I see the ebay thing right next to newegg one. I can't upload any pics right now...

[goomba478]

Well thanks for letting me know Dan. I'll be sure to work out the bugs when the final version is up and running (I'm getting there ^_^). The final version will be a combination of Tables/CSS so I should get it working the way I want it to. Sorry it looks buggy to you. Did anyone else check it out? Let me know if it looks funky in your browsers too. I've tried it in Windows using Firefox 1/2/3 and IE as well as on my Mac in Safari and even on my iPhone and it looked right on all of those. I wonder what the issue is...probably the eBay script throwing it off for some reason.

Dan can you try this:

http://www.gamesforcanada.com/new/index.html

Let me know if that looks correct. If so then it's likely the eBay script.

[kgroat]

I on IE and the ebay is off to the side too, but other then that its looking good

[goomba478]

Okay, I think I found the problem. I'm using CSS Floats and it's treating the eBay section as it's own paragraph and therefore setting it to the side. I'm going to fix it but unfortunately I have to go now to work. Thanks for all your help guys. Be sure to get Persona 2 ... only 15 copies left on the US site. The Canadian Amazon is bound to sell out very soon as well.

[goomba478]

Woo Hoo: I think I fixed it now ^_^

http://www.gamesforcanada.com/new/table-fix.html

Please let me know if that fixes it for you guys (it should!). I got it working even on my iPhone/IE so it should be good now =P

[danthemightyone]

It looks fine to me now, if putting ebay thing below other ones is what it should look like.

[goomba478]

Yes eBay should always be on the bottom of the other ones. Thanks so much for helping me in finding that bug. I'm sure the final site will have it's fair share of issues as well, but that'll be fun looking through them :) I should have the majority of them worked out once it goes live ^_^ Things are looking good! I think streamlining all my services into one site is going to make a big difference. It'll be easier to order from, easier to track your orders and hopefully I'll make more sales and attract new customers as well. Thanks guys! Off to work now :)

[goomba478]

FYI peoples:

Persona 2 (PSX) only 7 left on the Canadian Amazon.ca .... the US Site has already sold out.

[heimdal]

How's it going there Goomba.

What's the cheapest you can get Eternal Sonata for the PS3 for?
Could you keep a lookout for a good deal for me? Thanks.

[ragnar14]

Kathos, I told you twice in emails that I was sending them seperately so that you could receive them faster. I figured that the Lancer would get stuck in customs longer due to it's large size, and if I shipped them together it would probably have cost you more in customs. It cost me more money to ship them seperately but I shipped the Lancer with Priority Mail which is supposed to be faster (the game was shipped first class, but since it's small it just likely reached you first).
I donno if his local mail is like mine, but I usually only get larger parcels that the mail-carrier can't bring on Mondays and Fridays.

(By the way, grab this game before it's gone...I'm going to order like 10 copies myself cuz I've been looking for a sealed copy FOREVER now).
Just FYI it's most likely going to be like the last reprint, and won't have a real seal sticker. So it's not going to have that collector value. And it's $10 more than the last reprint, greedy Atlus :bouncy: Of course it's still a great deal for newbie fans :)

[goomba478]

Heimdal, the cheapest I have seen yet would put it at around $45 USD shipped to you in Canada. The game is still relatively new so I wouldn't expect too many deals anytime soon. What is the price point you're looking for?

[goomba478]

Just so you guys know, I'm going out of town today to a housewarming party for a highschool friend who I haven't seen in nearly 5 years now, so if you need to reach me, feel free to Email me or PM me and I'll do my best to get back to you. For new orders, feel free to use the traditional methods (website, etc.). Thanks guys!

[danthemightyone]

Wow, lots of great deals on amazon.com.....

[goomba478]

Wow those are pretty great deals. I'm tempted actually to get Dokapon and Trauma Center for myself.

[Azumangaman]

New site looks nice.
Can't wait to see the new features (reward system!).
I also can't wait for Wall E :)

[goomba478]

The new site is really exciting (and only about two weeks away from launching ... *Crosses Fingers*). I'm working towards a database driven site that is made from scratch so it's a TON of work but it'll be worth it :) Thanks for checking out the preview. Yes I can't wait for Wall-E either ^_^ Really close now! Cya soon :) Off to bed I go. I had a great day...so much fun seeing all my friends (8 years is a LONG time to not see your closest friends). Adios!

[PuppetYuber]

once cdn goes back up, i will pick a few games from ya
currently cdn sucks too much to buy anything for usd :(

[maigoyume]

Hey goomba, just in case you didn't get my PM/msn. Do you mind picking me up spectral force 3 + dokapon kingdom? If they change prices don't worry about either of them. Thanks in advance.

[ragnar14]

Crap those are some great deals on Amazon. Even with the exchange rate, shipping, and fees Spectral Force 3 and Operation Darkness are half off (they're $60 up here). Can you please order me:

[jeffx]

hey ragnar if you buy the P4 guide from doublejump (https://djbooks.storesecured.com/items/strategy-guides/persona-4-the-official-strategy-guide-detail.htm)you can use the p4pre coupon for free priority shipping, making the guide 20$ (plus whatever it costs goomba to get it to you)

[danthemightyone]

[goomba478]

afterburn999, great news! Your flavor drops have arrived ^_^ I have them all packed up and they will be going out first thing tomorrow (Monday - 11/17/2008). Thanks again! They smell really good by the way :) Hope you enjoy them!

[goomba478]

danthemightyone, I'll go and send you an invoice for those three :) Thanks!

[goomba478]

ragnar14, I sent you an invoice (minus the guide). The guide is $20 USD but probably will cost about $5 shipping due to it's size/weight. If you want to get the guide too just add $26 to the total invoice price I gave you in the Email. Thanks!

[danthemightyone]

danthemightyone, I'll go and send you an invoice for those three :) Thanks!

I just sent payment for these three items. Can you send a new invoice for Persona 4 stuff and DQ4 again, after taking out Eternal Poison? Thanks.

[goomba478]

Sure thing Dan (thanks for the payment for those three). I'll go send the revised v3 of the invoice :) Thanks!

[kathos]

Hey Goomba Kathos here, any way to check up on that Lancer shipment? I'm dying with anticipation and I really want to pretend shoot my fat lazy dog with it (he goes NUTS at the sound of toy guns).

[ragnar14]

Thanks, payment is out for the games :D

hey ragnar if you buy the P4 guide from doublejump (https://djbooks.storesecured.com/items/strategy-guides/persona-4-the-official-strategy-guide-detail.htm)you can use the p4pre coupon for free priority shipping, making the guide 20$ (plus whatever it costs goomba to get it to you)
Well Amazon does free shipping for Goomba. So it's the same thing. But I can use that code myself to make Doublejump's ridiculous Canadian shipping kinda reasonable. So I guess I'll do that instead of delaying my Goomba order a couple weeks. Thanks for pointing the coupon out :)

[maigoyume]

Goomba I got the invoice for dokapon kingdom, but I didn't get one for spectral force 3. I wanted to get both of those games. Thanks.

[goomba478]

kathos, if you still don't have the Lancer by Wednesday let me know and I'll try to call the USPS Customer Service. It was shipped with Priority Mail which means it includes insurance, so they tend to be better with those packages. Let me know. Sorry it's taking so long. It's ironic that I shipped that one with the more expensive and faster mail and yet the game zipped right through (I kind of figured that would happen though which is why I sent them seperately in the first place). Let me know!

ragnar14, thanks I got your payment and ordered your games :) Should be going out Tuesday or Wednesday. Appreciate it!

maigoyume, I just sent you an updated invoice with SF3 on there. I didn't get home until 6AM last night from work so I didn't have a chance to send it sooner :) I'm up and back at it though now. Thanks guys!

Just a reminder guys, today is the last day to pre-order Luminous Arc 2 For the DS and get the bonus CD AND Artbook with the Amazon.com promo. The game was $36.99 USD on the Amazon.com and $35.99 CAD on the Amazon.ca but the Amazon.ca one didn't mention the artbook for what it's worth (no guarantee you'll get it there). If you want me to order one for you let me know as it's more than likely the last chance I can order it today. Thanks guys!

I think I saw a poster of this in EB Games the other day so we might be able to get it locally.

Goomba, can you update me on the invoice of unpaid items so far? I don't really want to miss anything due to confusion, and I am terribly sorry for asking different invoices many times.

[goomba478]

Okay not a problem :) Our Gamestops aren't getting the bonus artbook as far as I know, so I just wanted to point that out.

danthemightyone, not a problem... I understand completely so nothing to be sorry for. Besides, once I get the new site up and running the paid/unpaid items thing will be a lot easier to see visually for you guys anyhow as you can see what status your orders are in, and all that good stuff. Here's a summary of the items you wanted and their status:

Ar Tonelico 2 (PS2) - PAID
Yggdra Union (PSP) - PAID
Spectral Force 3 (Xbox 360) - PAID
Dragon Quest IV (DS) - NOT PAID
Persona 4 Exclusive Social Link - NOT PAID

Let me know if you see anything I forgot, I believe that's it. Thanks!

[goomba478]

Anyone here interested in a near mint copy of Disgaea 3 for the PS3 for $35 USD shipped? Let me know. Also, Gamefly is having a lot of games on sale.

I am a Gamefly Member, so I can get any of those games with free shipping to me. Add $5 USD to any of the totals above to include shipping to Canada and my $2 service charge :)

[Azumangaman]

Army of Two is mighty tempting, but I'm going to have to pass.
Some great deals there though!

[goomba478]

Lost Planet is a steal, Army of Two is a great price as is Heavenly Sword and Haze (though not as good as when it was $10). I may get a couple Soul Calibur IV's as well.
Thanks for looking!

[danthemightyone]

Disgaea 3 is a really good price. I would have ordered it if I hadn't gotten one from rosenqueen.

[goomba478]

Yeah but at least you got all the cool extras with it danthemightyone :) I was rather jealous seeing all those cool goodies in there! I'm going to get myself a copy (even though I still have to finish Disgaea 1 & 2). I was told they don't directly continue though so I think it's safe to play out of order.

[heimdal]

If I buy more than one copy of a game, it's $1 for each additional one, amirite?

[goomba478]

Yes first game is a $2 USD service charge and $1 for each additional. The only exceptions are for large items (Game systems) or items more than $100 but those are pretty uncommon orders anyhow :) Thanks Heimdal!

[goomba478]

kathos, about your Lancer. This is the latest info I have from the USPS Tracking services:


Into Foreign Customs, November 14, 2008, 1:11 pm, CANADA http://trkcnfrm1.smi.usps.com/PTSInternetWeb/images/bullet_circle.gif Arrived Abroad, November 14, 2008, 1:11 pm, CANADA http://trkcnfrm1.smi.usps.com/PTSInternetWeb/images/bullet_circle.gif International Dispatch, November 10, 2008, 5:29 pm, FOREIGN CENTERJERSEY CITY NJ 099 http://trkcnfrm1.smi.usps.com/PTSInternetWeb/images/bullet_circle.gif Electronic Shipping Info Received, November 07, 2008

Looks like I was correct and it's just taking a while to get through customs. I guess sending a huge, heavy replica gun isn't exactly something people do every day. They're probably making sure it's not an actual weapon or something =P

[kgroat]

Goomba any status on my stuff? Can't wait :D

[goomba478]

Great news kgroat, your Cinnamon Mints and Figure are here :) I'm going to ship them out today ^_^ You should receive them in roughly a week or so depending on customs. Good time you got the figure too..they're selling for almost $60 on eBay now. Crazy isn't it? Thanks again!

[kgroat]

Thanks for update, to bad I don't want to sell it:p

[goomba478]

Yeah I don't blame you. If I had any room in my house for figures/toys/statues it'd be a definite must have. Unfortunately, I live in a small place that is already filled to the brim with stock of games/items for sale in my various stores :) The item shipped though. The mail person laughed when they saw "Cinnamon Mints" on the Customs form. I guess most people aren't that specific ^_^

[Kiluminati]

Hey Goomba, I've never bought anything through you so was wondering if you would do this. There is the Ace Combat 6 Flight Bundle for the xbox 360 that was relaunched in the United States Best Buys. Here in Canada they never got any stock on it. It can be found at the following link http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8614895&productCategoryId=abcat0701004&type=product&id=1192233362753
I was wondering if there was anyway you could pick that up and ship it to me and if so how much it would cost altogether and how you would like your payment. Thanks

[goomba478]

I was actually thinking of picking up one of these myself. They are definitely available but the only thing is that they likely cost quite a bit to ship. I have no problem buying one for you but keep in mind the big box is pretty heavy (anyone know how much it weighs in total?). Unfortunately I can't really estimate the shipping without knowing how much it weighs. If you can find out for me I'd be happy to send you an estimate!

[kathos]

Goomba, you are a deity. I received the Lancer, perfect condition, and shock and awed the seniors in my condo (my brother and I are the youngest ones in the building, 10 and 20 respectively), had my gf give me a digusted face and proved to my father that I do not have any self-control when it comes to gaming.

I'll be posting pictures when I get my camera charged up!

I'd rather have no blood on the chainsaw but eh, it's well done and a nice touch!

[goomba478]

I am really glad I've been upgraded from @$$hole to deity...quite a jump I must say :) Glad to be of assistance in shocking seniors, impressing younger siblings and disappointing parents...all in a day's work!

Definitely look forward to the pictures :) Blood would be a nice touch, but you could always paint that on if you really needed it ^_^ Glad you got it! I knew it'd get to you eventually. Customs just slows down things sometimes. Thanks again!

[goomba478]

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51aCb%2BH1BYL._AA280_.jpg

Kiluminati, to answer your question...according to eBay sellers the box is about 9 pounds shipped and the box is 18x12x10...quite large. In total your item would be:

$162.50 - Price of Ace Combat 6 w/ Flight Stick, plus tax and shipping to me in US
$030.00 - Cost of Shipping via Priority Mail to Canada
$005.00 - Service Charge for Large/Expensive/Heavy items
-----------
$197.50 USD - Grand Total for Item + Shipping to Canada

Not sure if that kills the deal for you or not. I might be able to get the shipping cheaper if I shipped you the flight stick and game seperately without the large box or if you're willing to take a used copy (some Amazon sellers are selling it for about $120-$130 and there wouldn't be any tax involved).

Let me know if you're interested ^_^ Thanks!

[goomba478]

Question: Would any of you guys be interested in helping me try out the new GamesForCanada.com site once I get it running? I just built the backbone section for it in PHP today alongside some of the new code and plan to have something within a week. I'm hoping that some of you would be willing to try and sign up through the new site and see how everything works. The more feedback and input I can get the better.

Samples of what I'm working on:

Inventory-based Site/Store: Everything on the site will be tied to a real-time inventory of what I have in stock. This will allow me to generate on-the-fly prices, qty. for games/items in stock as well as show the price of NEW Vs. Used prices, generate invoices dynamically, calculate shipping in real time and all sorts of great things. I can even use a single Database of my inventory across other sites I'm working on in the future as they'll all be tied to my actual stock.

Member Area: Each of you will have your own member page that allows you to see your past/present/future orders and see where they stand. Instead of having to Email me / PM me / Post here to ask "Hey Goomba, did you ship my item yet?" you can see in your personal page the status of your order as well as shipping/confirmation numbers, price subtotals, etc. This will make everyone's life easier and will be great for tracking down past orders as well.

Reward Section: I still haven't worked out all the nitty-gritty details, but the new Rewards section will be there as a special thank you to all my loyal customers. You will accumulate points based on your purchases and will be able to cash them in for nifty prizes/bonuses/discounts. More on this soon.

Just a taste of what I'm working on :) If you have any input or ideas based just on my text descriptions let me know. Otherwise, I'm looking for some test subjects to try out the new site next week...THANKS!

[Phorty Ounce]

^ Yes to the beta test.

Also, you have any 12+1 month 360 subscription cards? I could use one right now. Let me know via PM. Thanks.

[afterburn999]

Hey Goomba did you ship out those drops yet ?

[goomba478]

afterburn999, yes :) I shipped them out Thursday and made sure to pack them well with bubble wrap and the works. You should get them next week hopefully.

Phorty, yes I do have a card! Send $44 USD to jjparks@improcomics.org using non-credit card funds and I'll PM you the code :) Thanks!

[goomba478]

Phorty echeck is fine to JJParks Paypal but I have to wait for it to clear. Thanks!

[Phorty Ounce]

You don't accept bank cheques?

[goomba478]

Phorty, yes I do :) I take just about any payment type you can think of. When you say a bank cheque do you mean one that you mail to me (like a money order?). Because it has to be in US Dollars in order for me to cash it. Please specify what you mean, but if you mean just a normal check from your bank I have a feeling it'd be in Canadian Dollars. Fill me in. I can accept the following:

1) Paypal Direct Funds
2) Paypal Credit Card/Debit Card Funds (ask that you pay the extra fee though)
3) Money Order (US Dollars Only)
4) Personal Check (US Dollars Only)
5) Google Checkout (US Dollars Only)
6) Concealed US Cash by Mail (not recommended but I do accept it).

I think that covers the major options. Let me know :) I only have two more XBL Cards left .. I'll hold onto one for you!

[goomba478]

I just got a bunch of new games by the way guys that I'm planning to sell on eBay/Trade on Goozex. Before I do so, let me know if any of you are interested. Games are all COMPLETE and NEAR MINT and All prices are for games including SHIPPING and FEES:

Resistance 2 (PS3): $53 USD
Dead Space (Xbox 360): $53 USD
Mirror's Edge (Xbox 360): $53 USD
Mortal Kombat VS DC Universe (Xbox 360): $53 USD
Gears of War 2 (Xbox 360) - $53 USD
Tales of Vesperia (Xbox 360) - $53 USD
Infinite Undiscovery (Xbox 360) - $53 USD
Fable II Collector's Edition (Xbox 360) - $55 USD

Let me know ... I need to sell all of these in the next three days because I'm very, very low on cash and need money for the holiday season. Thanks!

[Winnopeg]

$53 Usd = $67.54 Cad. :(

[goomba478]

Errr sorry yeah forgot about the whole CAD debacle. I guess I'll just eBay them :) I could use the $400+ or so ^_^ This week I'm aiming to sell $1000 worth of games (not profit mind you, I wish!) on eBay to try and get some cards paid off. I have way too many to sell but luckily I have today, tomorrow and Tuesday off from the casino so that gives me time. The last few days I've been doing nothing but programming the new site (getting there!!!) and working on my various jobs.

Remember guys: I'm aiming for the first week of December for the new GFC beta. Let me know if you're interested in trying it out when it's live ^_^

[mberkes]

Hey goomba, I'm interested in getting Bioshock (PS3) from the costco.com website; right now it's only 27.99. Could you let me know what the total charge would be to me, and then I'll see if the conversion rate is worth it in the end haha. Thanks!

[goomba478]

Hey there Mberkes. I'll try to get it for you. The only thing is that I'm not a Costco member so I'm pretty sure I'd have to pay a higher price than that (I have a BJ's membership not Costco). Get back to you ^_^

[goomba478]

Mberkes, it would be $39.50 USD to ship to Canada including all shipping/handling/fees from Costco, etc. The charge is $1.40 for non-Costco members by the way plus 6% state sales tax (for my state of Connecticut), not so bad considering annual membership is $50+. Great price for Bio Shock! Not sure about the CAD transfer rate ... Let me know if you're interested.

[danthemightyone]

Bioshock is October release so they don't let me pick it up for 2 games+10 bucks :(

Anyway, FF3 for DS is $19.99 on amazon.com. Only if I am not getting it via trade...

[goomba478]

I can give you an even better price on FF3 for the DS if you're interested Dan. If you're not getting it in a trade let me know, I have one copy left. Thanks!

[danthemightyone]

>.< You should have told me if you had a copy! lol

If yours is sealed, let me know the price. I am getting opened one so I might get one sealed too, if your price is tempting. ;-)

[goomba478]

Oh sorry, wasn't sure you needed a sealed one. I have one that is in nearly perfect shape but it's used. In that case I guess the Amazon one isn't so bad :) I was going to say like $15 for it. But if you already have one that's cool. No problem.

[goomba478]

** Updates For Your Orders **

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that I just got in the Luminous Arc 2 sets for those of you who ordered them so they'll be going out in the mail tomorrow (Amazon was a bit behind on shipping some of them due to the pre-order bonuses). The art books look AWESOME by the way. You will be very pleased ^_^

Ragnar14, your copy of "Operation Darkness" was also delayed but just came in so I'll have that out to you tomorrow as well along with Baroque (PS2) and Spectral Force 3 (PS2). I've already got them packaged and they're ready to go :)

Keep in mind for all other orders that the new GamesForCanada.com website will soon serve as your Order Update Headquarters. It's not live yet, but I'm getting there. I just implemented the user/password system last night and today and now I'm working on the Custom user pages today and tomorrow. So much to do ^_^ December is quickly approaching!

[Azumangaman]

Got Wall-E and Makai Kingdom today.
Thanks a million Goomba!

[maigoyume]

Recieved DQIV, thanks again goomba :)

[goomba478]

Glad to hear it Azumangaman and maigoyume! Glad they made it up there safely ^_^ For all other people with orders out, you should be receiving them soon as well. Just keep in mind due to the holidays that some Amazon orders are slightly slower than usual. Thanks again and keep the new orders coming :)

[game_fanatic]

hey goomba, I got the second cy of Haze you sent me, thanks a million, definitely didn't expect you to front another copy! I think from now on I'll get you to ship orders to'tmy house back home, that way packages won't disappear and it'll save us money in the end! Oh, and you can cancel my request for The Orange Box for $19.99, it's already dropped to that price here in Canada at EB! I guess that leaves Final Fantasy Tactics, Dead Rising and Armored Core: For Answer! Thanks again goomba!

These prices are hot :hot:

Infinite Undiscovery & Metal Gear Portable Ops if you can get one for me. *cursing exchange rate*

[goomba478]

Wow those prices are incredible. I'll definitely try to get some of them at those rates! Unfortunately I work late on Thanksgiving (don't get home until 3am) but last year they started the sales at 3AM (which is 12:00 Pacific Time) so maybe I'll luck out. Wish I wasn't so broke. I charged up a lot of items lately and haven't sold hardly any of them (going to list more tonight). Thanks for the scoop!

game_fanatic, you're very welcome. It's the least I could do. I don't know what happened to the first copy but luckily it was a cheap enough game. Hope you enjoy it...it looked fun, even if it was overrated apparently. Keep me posted on the new orders you want ^_^ Thanks!

how much for Metal Gear Solid: The Essential Collection shipped?

[afterburn999]

Hey Goomba i got the drops today, thanks for the fast shipping since i know you only got them on thursday. I`ll leave feedback as soon as i post this.

Also i wanted to know how cheap you could get Halo 3 for É

[goomba478]

habsfan08, it'd be $40 USD shipped to Canada (it weighs quite a bit since it includes three games and needs to be shipped in a cardboard packaging). Amazon says it weighs 3 pounds but it's actually about 2 pounds or so. Not sure if you're interested or not.

afterburn999, glad you got the drops! That's great :) That was pretty fast actually. Glad they made it there safely ^_^ Thanks as always!

[danthemightyone]

IMO, MGS Essentials is not worth getting it from US after exchange rate and shipping, even at that price. I still see lots of MSG E copies at $29.99 at local stores.

[goomba478]

Yeah I wouldn't think it's worth it honestly but that's how much it'd be nonetheless :) It's essentially the same as shipping 3 or 4 games so that's where the extra cost comes in. Then yeah the exchange rate doesn't help much either. Darn exchange rate and global recession =P

afterburn999, which Halo 3 were you referring to? I was a bit lost. Let me know!

[habsfan08]

ok thanks anyways, maybe pick it up later then

[Winnopeg]

Glad to hear it Azumangaman and maigoyume! Glad they made it up there safely ^_^ For all other people with orders out, you should be receiving them soon as well. Just keep in mind due to the holidays that some Amazon orders are slightly slower than usual. Thanks again and keep the new orders coming :)
You shipped my last order 5 weeks ago (tomorrow)... Still hasn't shown up. =( Hoping it just got caught at customs or something and that it's not lost in the mail.

[heimdal]

I'd like Infinite Undiscovery if it's available, Goomba.

Hope you can grab some copies, but I won't get my hopes up.

[goomba478]

Winnopeg, I'm really sorry that it hasn't gotten to you yet. I've had a few items that have taken a long time lately (2 weeks or more) in customs lately and I'm wondering if it's just the holidays that have them behind. I checked the tracking and it doesn't show much, but first class seldom does (usually only Priority Mail does). If you want to try and contact your postal service or customs maybe they can tell you more. I'll try to ask my post office as well and see if they have any more information on it. Really sorry =\ It's very rare to have problems with Canadian Post.

heimdal, I'll try to get you one. You can be sure I'm going to be fighting for some copies of those great deals. *Crosses Fingers*

[goomba478]

By the way guys, I just got an Email from eStarland.com. They are doing a special "Buy one Pre-Owned/Used game and get one at 50% off sale". If there's anything you want from there, be sure to look around, let me know ^_^

Update: Sale ends 12/12/08

[goomba478]

Anyone here interested in the Limited Edition Mario or Light Blue DS' that are coming out this week? Amazon has them $15 off...let me know as the pre-order ends tonight I believe (Wednesday).

[danthemightyone]

Mario Red DS Lite looks sexy. damn.

[kgroat]

if only Canadian dollar was better, I'd jump all over that
so awsome looking

[afterburn999]

Yeah I wouldn't think it's worth it honestly but that's how much it'd be nonetheless :) It's essentially the same as shipping 3 or 4 games so that's where the extra cost comes in. Then yeah the exchange rate doesn't help much either. Darn exchange rate and global recession =P

afterburn999, which Halo 3 were you referring to? I was a bit lost. Let me know!

Just the regular standard edition. I figured it would of dropped in price by now.

[snowsquirrel]

Goomba, if you get your hands on any copies of the $9.99 Transformers Blu-Ray on Black Friday at Best Buy, I will certainly take one off your hands. :-)

~S

[goomba478]

afterburn999, I can definitely get you a regular edition Halo 3 for a good price. Are you looking for NEW or Used?

USED: I can do $35 USD shipped to Canada (buy from Gamestop + Shipping and such). Keep in mind this offer is only good until 12/1/2008 because I have a 20% coupon that stacks with my 10% Edge discount...

NEW: $45 USD Shipped to Canada. Cheapest I've seen yet (NewEgg). Let me know if you're interested!

[mberkes]

Mberkes, it would be $39.50 USD to ship to Canada including all shipping/handling/fees from Costco, etc. The charge is $1.40 for non-Costco members by the way plus 6% state sales tax (for my state of Connecticut), not so bad considering annual membership is $50+. Great price for Bio Shock! Not sure about the CAD transfer rate ... Let me know if you're interested.
Sigh, conversion rates are killing me, it comes out to close to what I would pay for it here. Thanks anyways Goomba, I'll have to get in touch with you if our dollar ever goes up again...

[kgroat]

goomba my stuff arrived today
my dad laugh at me when he read the box
thanks again
:mrgreen:

[CatBoy]

Goomba, will you be getting some stuff on Amazon's Black Friday deals? If you can get a copy of Infinite Undiscovery for $19, I'd take one. :)

Received my copy of DQ4 yesterday, thanks a lot. :)

[goomba478]

kgroat, glad they got there :) Enjoy the caffeinated cinnamon mints!

CatBoy...I'm going to try my best. Amazon's prices on Black Friday are awesome but the problem is that almost all my credit cards are maxed out (mostly because of future orders and items that aren't paid for yet by a few of my customers)....so my funds are limited. Also, Amazon tends to crash a lot when everyone rushes in so it's sort of a crap shoot to see what you can get. I'm going to try to nab what I can though ^_^ I'll let you guys know what I get. Glad you got DQIV. Thanks for the feedback also!

[Winnopeg]

Winnopeg, I'm really sorry that it hasn't gotten to you yet. I've had a few items that have taken a long time lately (2 weeks or more) in customs lately and I'm wondering if it's just the holidays that have them behind.

heimdal, I'll try to get you one. You can be sure I'm going to be fighting for some copies of those great deals. *Crosses Fingers*
Thankfully I'm no longer on that router to have internet on my 360, so it's not a huge deal, but it has been quite some time. :p Never had a parcel lost* or stuck at customs before, so I wouldn't know where to call, but if you could that would really be great.

* Sorta kinda had one lost once, but I'm pretty sure it was the company's fault in that they mailed it to the wrong person or didn't mail it at all or something.

[AznChaos]

Hey Goomba,
This may be a bit late but I was just wondering if you could get a copy of Dead Space for 30 bucks at Target on Black Friday? That is of course if your going there at all. If you're not don't worry about it.

[danthemightyone]

damn, I decided to jump in for red Mario DS preorder and noticed it's over? :( Did you happen to make any preorders by any chance? *crossing fingers*

[Winnopeg]

damn, I decided to jump in for red Mario DS preorder and noticed it's over? :( Did you happen to make any preorders by any chance? *crossing fingers*
Looks like it can still be pre-ordered to me?

I've got a Zelda DS but that Mario DS is pretty tempting... Hm. Have to think about it.

[goomba478]

IMPORTANT BLACK FRIDAY UPDATE:

For all of those who are asking me if I can order this and that today, the answer is I probably can but I will need you to pay me first because my cards are all maxed out and won't be paid until next week. Meaning, if you pay me on Paypal I can use those funds to buy your items.

If you pay me and I am unable to get your items I will refund the money in full of course. So please, if you are asking me if you want a specific item please contact me first and send payment.

If paying with direct funds my account is : jjparks@improcomics.org on Paypal
If paying with a credit card it's: Canadapayments@improcomics.org

-------------
Yes, the Limited Edition Mario DS DOES seem to be available for those who want it. Keep in mind they come to $154.00 USD ($163.24 USD w/ Credit Card) total including everything. These are very limited and will not be sold for long...trust me =)

[danthemightyone]

Payment sent for unpaid stuff + Mario DS. I think my cancelled order can cover a copy of IU?

[goomba478]

danthemightyone, thanks for your payment. It looks like they are out of stock on the Mario DS again, but I'll hold onto your money and try to get it if it comes back. If not then of course I'll refund you. As for Infinite Undiscovery it's supposed to go on sale roughly 3AM today so I'll try for that as well. Thanks man! I'll fight to get you one :) It was just in stock a minute ago but after your payment came in it was OOS again. I have a feeling it'll be back in stock later though for Black Friday's sale. *Crosses Fingers*

[danthemightyone]

Ah, I forgot about MGS Portable Ops one. Please go ahead and order one for me if you can get a hold of it. I believe it's $9.xx so payment wouldn't be a problem at all.

*cursing on exchange rate again...*

[goomba478]

Dan great news. I was able to order you the mario ds from my wifes acct!

[goomba478]

I am at a Chinese concert right now (Richie Ren) but still taking orders :) Good times

[danthemightyone]

[Pat_McCrotch]

Just gave you my payment for Dead Space and a Warhammer Online Pre-paid time card. I gave you a pm as well.:)

EDIT: When i get paid tomorrow morning, i'll make another order on Condemned 2: Bloodshot(360) for 15 bucks.

[Azumangaman]

Ok Goomba, if you could get these items I'd be really greatful.
AMAZON BLACK FRIDAY WISHLIST:
PSP
Metal Gear Sold: Portable Ops (PSP)-$9.95
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (PSP)-$14.95

PS3
PS3 Component Cables-$9.99 (Official Sony ones)

If you can get any of those, that'd be great :)

[goomba478]

Hey guys I get out of work in 2 hours and will order all the games you requested that are available. I can't wait to get out of here. I hate working on holidays and even worse on the eve of Black Friday. Thanks!

[game_fanatic]

hey goomba, is it possible to cancel the order on Armored Core: For Answer? If not, no worries, I'll still take it, but if it's possible that'd be awesome. Thanks.

[heimdal]

I just sent PayPal money for Infinite Undiscovery.

Hope I get one :)

[CatBoy]

Sent you the funds to cover the 4 items. Thanks for doing this. :)

[goomba478]

Okay guys I'm home and ready to do business. I'm going to fight and try to get all your items. I'm staying up past my normal bed time for you ^_^ Wish me luck! Remember you have my Goomba Guarantee. If I don't get the items you asked for I"ll refund you in full tomorrow. THANKS!

[goomba478]

game_fanatic, not a problem. I'll go ahead and cancel the Armored Core. I'll try to get what I can for you though!

By the way...for those of you who sent me CAD....I only accept USD. Sorry! I'll still try to order your items but I will have to send the CAD back to you and ask you to pay in USD. Sorry ^_^

[goomba478]

Just so you guys know:

1) Amazon is limiting Dead Space to one per customer. I may be able to get more but at the moment I'm only able to get one (possibly two if I used my wife's account). Just so you know.

2) I need you to pay in USD not CAD. This is VERY important. Thanks!

3) Do you guys want MGS: Portable Ops PLUS? This is the one that's on sale...

4) Some of these items are good Friday-Monday. Some are Friday only. I'm ordering the Friday only ones first since they are likely to end the sale soonest.

[CatBoy]

When you're done, please tell us what you succeeded in purchasing before going to bed. :D

I feel bad about having you stay up later than usual tho. :(

[goomba478]

It's alright. My wife isn't too happy with me haha but she'll get over it. Amazon is having some crashing/ordering issues but I'm slugging through it. I'll give you a rundown before I sign off :)

Again, I'm only ordering what I have enough money to order and the items that are Friday only at the moment. Three buyers paid in CAD so unfortunately I don't want to convert it to USD because it'll take almost 20% less if I do that. So I'm waiting to hear from them...

[goomba478]

Update (Again): Dead Space for Xbox 360 is no longer available but the PS3 Dead Space is now $30 as well! I'm going to order 2 and if nobody wants them I'll keep them.

Okay guys I'm done for now. I maxed out all my credit cards/Paypal/Bank Cards so it's safe to say that I did pretty good :) Keep in mind those of you who sent me CAD I did not yet convert your money, so I can still refund it to you and have you send me USD. This way we don't have to pay outrageous Paypal conversion fees either.

Here's what I got: (Full List). I'm not breaking it down by buyer now but I will Email you individually tomorrow with invoices for the differences (either if I owe you or if you owe me as there are both situations):

6 x Infinite Undiscovery (Xbox 360) - I ordered the $20 ones with the extra gift for all
2 x Boom Blox (Wii) - There was a limit of one per customer. Ordered with two accts.
1 x Animal Crossing: City Folk (Wii)
2 x Metal Slug 7 (DS) - Pre-Order (includes bonus dog-tag)
2 x Metal Gear Portal OPS Plus - Limit of one per customer again. Ordered with two accts.
3 x Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (PSP)
1 x PS3 Component Cable
2 x Dead Space (Xbox 360) - Limit of one per customer again. Ordered with two accts.
2 x Dead Space (PS3) - Limit of one per customer again. Ordered with two accts.
1 x Condemned 2 (Xbox 360)
1 x Warhammer Online - 60 Day Card
1 x Too Human (Xbox 360)

The following items were NOT available:
Final Fantasy Tactics (PSP) from Best Buy - Sold Out Online
Assassin's Creed for $10 - Not Available Online
Dead Rising from NewEgg for $10 - Not Available Online/Sold Out?
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

That should bring us up to date now. Keep in mind many of these deals are good for the whole weekend, so I'll be happy to work with you ^_^ Glad I was able to get most of the orders in for you guys :) Going to be a busy packing week for me! Gotta love it though :) I'll send you formal invoices and all that fun stuff during the day.

Thank you all times 100 ^_^

I'm actually surprised none of you were interested in the Persona 3 FES with free Artbook and CD. I'm going to get one of those for myself definitely.

[Azumangaman]

Thanks goomba! Just send the invoice and ten monies are all yours :D
If somebody backs out on infinite undiscovery let me know.

Damn nuuu I wanted Left 4 Dead for PC ~_~. Damn BF deals are probably over.

[danthemightyone]

holy freak. what am i gonna do? i was selected for Amazon.com vote thingy in 2nd round (probably crappiest among all rounds). Nightvision thing... I wonder if they ship it to Canada cheap...

[Jest]

Goomba, did you manage to get any cheap Fallout 3 or Valkyria Chronicles on PS3

[goomba478]

Anyone here interested in Okami for the Wii $20 shipped? It's the Amazon lightning round deal that starts in just 7 minutes. I'll order you guys one if you want (if they let me order more than one of course). That's a ridiculous price for this awesome game!

[goomba478]

Jest, nobody asked me about Valkyrie Chronicles or Fallout 3. If I see one do you want me to order you one? What do you consider "Cheap" ? Let me know :)

danthemightyone, if you want you can send the item to me if they won't ship it to Canada. I think you have my mailing address right?

[goomba478]

Never mind guys. Okami is one per person again (darn it).

[Jest]

If you can do under $40 shipped that is cheap enough for me. Any more and I'm willing to wait for boxing day sales.

UPDATE: Rune Factory 2 Deal is currently dead. Sorry ^_^ Sold out. Those who requested it should get their copies :)

[goomba478]

Another Good Deal (Limited Time available):

Shaun White (Wii) or (Xbox 360) = $35 USD Shipped to Canada

I'm going to pick up one or two of these for the Wii since that's a pretty good price and I heard it works great with the Wii Balance Board.

[goomba478]

Update: Toys R Us $25 off $50 Paypal deal appears to be dead. I wasn't able to get in on this, unfortunately. Tried though :)

[heimdal]

Any deals on Eternal Sonata for the PS3? I'll take one if you don't mind.

Is it included in the TRU 25 off 50 deal?

Thanks for getting Infinite Undiscovery by the way.
