Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising (GBA) $4.99 at Best Buy B&M.

http://img27.exs.cx/img27/2761/75-HW_84309.gif

I can post a reciept if you need a proof :D.

http://img54.exs.cx/img54/4860/BB9.jpg


Each store in the DFW area recieved one around Friday, and the wherehouse had a ton.

The game was marked down to 5 dollars in May.

Ask someone at your local store to look it up and see if the DC has any, and if any are on order.

Then find out when they get thier GEO shipments, because it would probably be in that.

Good luck, but don't get your hopes up.


P.S. Can someone fix this server?! :censored: very annoying!!!

[Jaket]

good call on the server.... FUCK! I WAS AT BB TONIGHT!!!!!111one

[Kaijufan]

Thats a pretty good game. My brother has it and really likes it.
Anyone know whats wrong with the server? We need to get the new one ASAP.

[SneakyPenguin]

This is a very old deal, but if this means BB's are getting new stock, this tis great news.

[floormat]

thanks for this post. i went into the best buy at northcrest in fort wayne indiana. wasnt on the shelf so i asked and they had one left. woo hoo used my best buy reward zone card and got it free too =P spent 1000 dollars on that thingy last year. sheesh.

thanks again

[CouRageouS]

Probably moving to the new one as we speak. Thats why all the errors. Wish I knew I coulda got Advance Wars 2 for $5. I was just near BB a little while ago. Probably go back tomorrow and see if I get lucky.

[Dare]

nice find, im gonna have to check this out tomorrow

[Jaket]

anyone want to help out a CAG? 10 shipped for one :(?

[masha]

This is a very old deal, but if this means BB's are getting new stock, this tis great news.

I thought about it, but posted anyway. It's been a long time since that sale and I don't remember this game was a part of it.


4000 posts? You are da man! :shock:

[The Mana Knight]

I bought the game at EB for $14 used this summer with box and instructions. Fantastic game, but haven't got to play it much.

[Jaket]

yo masha will u hook a brotha up?

Yup. I saw a few at EB used with box and intructions for $17 I think minus 10% yesterday and I was on my way to pick one up today, but fortunately decided to stop by BB . :D

[masha]

yo masha will u hook a brotha up?

Sure I can try. But there was only one copy at BB I went to. If I see one tomorrow I pick one up for you.

Could this be the start of another BB $4.99 sale?

[masha]

I don't think BB has much left :D .

P.S. Comes in handy certificate of yours :lol:

[epobirs]

If anyone should come across it at their BB I'd be willing to PayPal $8 for it shipped. That should leave a bit of profit after tax and postage.

[alongx]

Yeah, this is definitely old news. However, I'm going to have to check out my BB tomorrow, just in case.

[regisphilbi0]

Sweet. I needed an excuse to go shopping, and now I have one! BB, here I come!

A cheap padded envelope has always gotten the job done for me without complaints. Barring that, it's a good reason to keep a stash of sturdy cardboard boxes on hand.

Lol yea. I think my BB's been out of AW2 for a while. Worth checking out if they have other games for $4.99 though.

[hiccupleftovers]

I thought this was posted as well during the 4.99 BB sale a while ago..I remember looking through the list and trying to get it at all of my BBs but alas they were all out of it. Maybe they are getting new shipments in but I doubt it.

[Rozz]

It could have been a return, y'know.

Man dude you took my fort wayne copy AHHHHHHHHHHHH

[Morpheus]

Glad to see this one is back instock. Not many people got in on it when it was first announced.

Anyway, here is the original thread it was posted in:

[slidecage]

lol i called the appleglen they said it dont come out till Nov 15 2004 have no clue what the are talking about

[cleaver]

Got the last one from Rockville, MD BB.

[floormat]

[Topic merged by NFG]

Just picked up Advance Wars 2 for 4.99 at my local (Lansing, MI) Best Buy. Certaintly a great price for an awesome enough game.

[David85]

That's awesome, too bad I can't get to BB.

[servbot]

me gots it too

[tenzor]

damn, I am going to best buy in a few mins, I hope they have it for 5 bucks.

[shrike4242]

Wouldn't mind someone picking up a copy for me.

[Scahom1]

I'm gonna check Sunday. Isn't this still $20 MSRP?

[epobirs]

I have this feeling of deja vu...

[swick]

This is the second repost of this in the past week! Man.

[slidecage]

its mostly out of print at most BB so dont count on finding it. Funny thing is our TRU has 50 copies of it for 20 and neither one of our BB have any

[JohnnyA]

Search function - learn it, live it, love it.

[slidecage]

too bad there wasnt an online ad showing it at BB for 5 bucks I could take it over to my TRU buy 20 copies and pass them out for 9 each lol

[Rozz]

:!: Repost :arrow: Don't let this happen again!

[masha]

Do a search next time or look through the first page at least.

[tenzor]

Thanks OP, even though this is a repost, I didn't see it before, but all that matters is thanks to you I walked out of BB tonight w/ advance wars 2 for five dollars.

[Josef]

This game was actually 5 bucks way back in May when they had their big $5 sale. They must have found a crate of games in the back of a wherehouse recently, and then sent one copy to each store across America.

[Theenternal]

i got mine at CC for 5 dollars :)

[Grico]

i searched before posting and found nothing. Must suck at searching.

:lol:

[airos4]

Union NJ had nothing, but the Totowa store had one today. Sweet, thanks!

[FriskyTanuki]

Will definitely have to check this out.

[slidecage]

I went over to the BB in fort wayne the NORTHCREST ONE heh heh and they said they should have more in the first week of oct. BUT the price is 24,99

[Irnmk21]

How'd you get yours at Circuit City?

[slidecage]

Yes tell us how you got the game at CC for 5

[CaseyRyback]

:!: Repost :arrow: Don't let this happen again!

you bump old ass deals all the time. At least this is a deal people can get in on.

And who cares if it is a repost? That old thread is like 3 months old (at least 2)

[darkwingduck13]

Just a note in case people haven't kept up the with the one cent strat guide thread:

The Official Nintendo Advance Wars 2 Strategy Guide is one cent at TRU, if you can find any copies in stock. :D

[govegan]

I managed to pick up a copy as well at the Milwaukee Mayfair location, but it was the only copy there.

It's a fun game and definitely worth the $5. I've played Fire Emblem and hadn't realized that this game was pretty much in the same vein.

Anyway, repost or not, thanks for pointing this one out.

[waxHead]

I also picked up a copy, the only one my BB has received in quite a while, they had it in back. bought this for $5 and a PS 2 Dualshock 2 controller for $15, after GGC ;)

I would never have asked about AW 2 had I not seen this topic, thanks!

[defiance_17]

My Best Buy must have just gotten a copy in today, because it wasn't there this weekend. I pounced on it. Eternal Sunshine was flying off the shelves, but I managed to pick up one of the last Widescreen copies, thankfully. And the new The Used album, which sucks ass so far.

[slidecage]

For all of you who still want this game keep checking your BB. The one in fort wayne got 3 copies in sunday, Sadly i got the last one today at the Northcrest store and they are still 4.99

[zionultra]

I just went to the Circuit City in Allentown, PA and had them call a few of the Best Buys in the area (apparently they will only price match to a store within 50 miles of it.) Finally, they got a hold of the BB in Montgomeryville, PA that had several copies. After matching the price and beating it by 10%, I picked up two copies for $3.50 each, a great deal for such an addictive little time sucker of a game.

5.00 x 10 % = 50 CENTS how did you get 1.50 knocked off

Pricematching is 10% of the difference, in this case, 10% of 15 bucks.

[cag1000]

if i went into my CC and asked them to call up best buys to get my game for 5 bucks and then take another 10% off they would laugh at me and walk away i bet

[slidecage]

same. THey would say well they dont have the game in stock. I wonder if a recipt would work. I think i still got mine from picking it up at BB today. I should go over there tomorrow and walk in and say... If i find a lower price will you price match and give 10% more off....


4.99 is a great price for the game but 3.50 is insane (1.50 can get me half a gallon of gas )

Holy crap!!! Your gas is $3.00 lol

[FriskyTanuki]

Stopped at a BB today and no AW2, but I might go to another one and see if they have it.

Gas is just above $2 here, was $2.14 at one gas station I saw. It rose about $.10 in about a day or two.

[specialk]

stopped in my BB today...they had it but i passed on it. feel stupid now. maybe they'll have it tomorrow when i'm back down that way.

[lain21us]

I bought the last copy at my BB, took it down the street to CC and showed them my receipt and got another copy for 3.50. I should have gotten more, but I didn't want to press my luck.

Yeah yeah, rub it in. I've been to my two closest BBs and no such luck. :cry:

[SadieDee]

I picked up what I think was the last copy in the Akron (Howe), Ohio one.

[mmn]

Sorry to bump a fairly old thread but this deal is still out there. I picked it up today at the Best Buy on Maryland Parkway in Vegas. They only had one copy left but I didn't ask if they had any more in the back.

Thanks for the deal, OP.

Wow.. I went there about a week ago and saw nothing. Maybe I missed it.

[alongx]

I need this game. My BB hasn't had one in stock in like a year. :cry:

[Wet Ninja]

I'm visiting my parents up in Richmond for a couple days, so decided to check the Best Buy there since the one nearest to me didn't have it. I was really excited to find a copy in the Richmond Best Buy, so I grabbed it and went to check out. It rang up $20. I decided to go ahead and get it anyway.

[zionoverfire]

glad I traded my copy away before the price dropped to nothing.

I wonder if the Mongtomeryville Best Buy didn't even check when they answered the phone, I was there on October 1st and that Best Buy had no copies of the game. Unless they got a shipment of the game on that Monday when they called.

[Zincdust]

I found AW2 at my local BB today, and it rang up as $19.99... :shock: Anyone else's local BB have theirs ring up as full price?

[slidecage]

talk is they raise them back to 19.99... Our bb wont have any in till NOv 1 dont ask me why

[servbot]

i picked up the last copy at my BB weeks ago...MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[bhfgamer]

That's a sweet deal. I've played the first one and it was awesome. Id buy it.... but I dont have a gBA anymore. Thanks for the find.

[backstrokestyles]

Deal is dead. I went to best buy today and it rung up for 19.99. I was mad, I think Im gonna return it.

[rizzo]
