St. Louis Deals

[bigriver314]

Hey just wanted to see what other CAG's were from STL.

Um.. I guess on place i have found a lot of cheap games has been Software Plus on Olive rd. 5 miles west of 270


I picked up Halo 2 for 12.99 there and Midnight Club Dub Edition for 19.99 as well.

Both where new by the way

[bigriver314]

O yea by the way GO CARDS

[regisphilbi0]

Go Cards! I live in STL too.

[bigriver314]

Awesome Fuck the Astros

[saigumi]

Right around Halloween, Software Plus should be having their big midnight sale.

Looks like they also added a clearance section on their site: http://shopforsoftware.com/

Halo 2 Limited Collector's Edition (XBOX) $52.99 $19.99

May have to get it.

[generalpatton71]

From Carbondale but I had to jump in and say GO CARDS! If we can get a good start from Morris Saturday it would be huge! I guess I'll have to break our my ESPN MLB 2005 and play the mach up lol.

[gambitfan]

GO CARDS! Since the All-Star break I've been predicting a Cards-White Sox World Series.


P.S. I am sooo glad the Red Sox and Yankees are out of contention. :lol:

[bigriver314]

as long as we score early against clemens we should hopefully be in good shape

[onetrackmind]

nice to see more cags from st. louis

[bigriver314]

has anyone here seen nba street v3 for cube cheap anywhere?

[shrike4242]

Some of us more infamous than others. ;)

[purpleshaman]

I haven't heard of Software Plus, but I should give it a shot.

[thack]

I'm from the Metro East.

[shrike4242]

I haven't heard of Software Plus, but I should give it a shot.
They're around the corner from where I live, west of Olive & 270.

They primarily do software sales, though they do dabble in console games.

[Quantumhawk]

I'm new to the forums (as of today, actually) but I live by Dorsett/270. I haven't found any great deals lately but I'm thinking of trying the TRU glitch this week. Anyone know if the Northwest Plaza TRU will do this?

[saigumi]

Anyone else hit Software Plus's midnight sale last friday? 10% of everything minimum.

I missed the usual "limited to 10" ultra cheap new titles part as I got there late. I was going by to see when it was, and it just happened to be that night. But I still picked up a used FarCry for $10, some magazines and books, and some PC components that were buy one get, one free.

[MSUHitman]

There's a new independent gaming store off 270 at the intersection of Big Bend and Doughterty Ferry called Game On. They have no handhelds, but have some stock of current gen games. However, they have a really good supply of PS3, 360, and Wii games. They also carry tabletop RPG books, miniatures, and CCG's.

I got Shenmue II and Crimson Skies used there for $10 combined the other day.

[The Cheapest Ass Gamer]

Sweet. I'll have to check that place out.

Question for STL CAGs...do we not have the GGC at Best Buy out here? I was trying to get something at the Brentwood BB and asked for the GGC, and the guy looked at me like I was out of my mind. What's the deal?

[MSUHitman]

Haven't looked; did you try the front of the store where the other gift cards are?

[gamegirl79]

I'm not sure what was up, but awhile back I saw the GGC at the Best Buy in Bridgeton on St. Charles Rock Rd. Might want to try there?

[hufferstl]

I haven't seen them at the Brentwood/Crestwood/South County store in about a year.

[The Cheapest Ass Gamer]

I turned the store over for those things; they weren't there.

I'll check out the Bridgeton store. Thanks for the help!

[MSUHitman]

For those interested, the Fenton Target store on Gravois Bluffs off 141 had 2 copies on the collector's edition of WoW: Burning Crusade left in stock on the shelf as of yesterday.

[schuerm26]

I know this is a bit of a drive for most in the STL area, but the Wentzville Walmart Supercenter (exit 208 off 70) has a bunch of PS2, XBOX, GBA and Gamecube games clearanced at $10.

Only one I can remember at the moment is Bomberman Max 2 Blue

[MisterNewGuy]

I haven't seen them at the Brentwood/Crestwood/South County store in about a year.

im a chicagoian CAGer.. but my sister is in MO. so i thought i can surf the board. ;) anyway.. here in chicago, they have the GGC's in the gaming section, on the shelves or hanging. but you have to be alert when you look, you just can't fan through the section.

best of luck.

[Killhawk]

I was told by a friend that there exists another Software Plus location. The one on Olive closed down :cry:

Anyone know anything about it?

[The Cheapest Ass Gamer]

I actually went in search of Software Plus and found a place on Baur Blvd, near Olive just off of Lindbergh, but it turned out to just be a corporate office of a company that sells software to businesses.

[hufferstl]

Anyone need an opened wii I picked up from target yesterday for cost? I think it was like $278 with taxes or something like that. Let me know before I return it.

[gordie08]

Just wanted to say hello. Another Metro East CaG here, anyone hitup that blockbuster 50% deal? The local blockbuster here had quite a few titles off the 50% list for 360 games. Only one I bought though was Tiger Woods 2007 for 29 and change after tax.

[shrike4242]

I haven't seen them at the Brentwood/Crestwood/South County store in about a year.
Last time I saw the GGC's at the South County store, they were sitting in the CD racks on the endcaps for the CD. The area facing the registers where the put some of the "hot sellers" and "new releases".

[Worseley]

Just thought I'd say hi. I'm up from Troy, MO but you'll catch me at College down here in Rolla (UMR).

I havn't seen anything lately around here that's Cag worthy

[The Cheapest Ass Gamer]

So I was just checking out the CompUSA stores around here, and they seem to be approaching the point where it's worthwhile to check them out. Monitors and TVs are at 25% (I picked up their last 27" Olevia LCD HDTV for $370), video games are 25% off, Windows Vista is 40% (Office is 30%), and random other deals. Computers are still only 10% off, so nothing noteworthy there. This goes for all three stores in the area (Sunset Hills, Bridgeton, and Ballwin). I was given an estimate of the first week of May for the stores to close...

[Deefuzz]

No deals here, just saying hi to the STL thread and bumping it back up.

I see there are either not too many STL CAG's, or we don't have much to say :)

[MSUHitman]

Did anywhere sell Halo 3 early? The independent game store near me (Game On) didn't have it on sale as of Sunday, and neither did the 7-11 next door.

Where is Game On? I have never heard of it.

[MSUHitman]

It's on Big Bend and Dougherty Ferry, about 1 mile off the exit on 270.

They carry video games (PS2, Cube, XBox, 360, PS3, Wii, and DS,) trading card games, pen-and-paper RPG's, miniatures, and comic books. They also have demo systems of PS3, 360, and Wii you can play (there is a charge.)

[MSUHitman]

FYI the Fenton Best Buy (as of 8 p.m. tonight) and Sunset Hills Gamestop (as of 4 p.m. Thursday) each have 1 new Legendary Halo 3 left in anyone is interested.

Sounds like that overpriced store in KC (they have one in Springfield also). Can't remember what it is called at the moment, but at that one you can expect to find only top notch ebay prices.

Edit: Vintage Stock is the name.

[MSUHitman]

We'll see how this is. Us VS players need a store to play at since Dragon King in St. Charles County was bought out by B&B Game Store from Eureka. If B&B doesn't get their act together and open a new store, we may have to try this Culture Shock place.

Speaking of Slackers, I went there not too long ago (for the first time in a while) and I was shocked at how overpriced everything was. I'm glad I wasn't missing out on anything!

[hufferstl]

I hate St. Charles County - St. Louis city is where its at.

But thanks for the info on the new store, maybe I will check it out if I ever cross the Missouri River to the darkside.

Hell yeah they are. Games you can find regularly for $7 at Gamestops are $18 at Slackers. It's ridiculous.

[Deefuzz]

I hate Slackers, good to see another store coming in. Hopefully it wont be the same.

I just bought some VS. cards but had to go all the way to IL to get my starter decks and stuff, but the rules included aren't quite clear to a newb. Do places you play ever have any type of beginnger sessions to teach newbies how to play?

[MSUHitman]

Sent PM on VS.

Has anyone who lives in St. Charles County seen a sign for Culture Shock as to when they open? Their website doesn't list a date.

They have been advertising exclusively on ESPN for a couple of weeks now. I'm always looking to give a local retailer a chance vs. the BB, CC, EB/Gamestop, etc. corporations out there.

[schuerm26]

For anyone on the Illinois side, the new Gamestop out by Lowes and Walmart off Green Mount is having a B2G1 free sale right now. Have no clue how long it lasts, but i got stuff for free this morning.

This isn't the one by Target off Green Mount. Get off 64 and head past the Target shopping area down Green Mount. It is probably about 3 miles down the road. You will see the Lowes right off of Green Mount.

[shrike4242]

Speaking of Slackers, I went there not too long ago (for the first time in a while) and I was shocked at how overpriced everything was. I'm glad I wasn't missing out on anything!The only thing I've found worthwhile at Slackers are older guides. Rest of it is pretty much as you described, overpriced and then some.

[anomynous]

I don't get the hate for slackers, I have no problem with them.

[MSUHitman]

I do think they're a little high, but I got some good deals on used HD-DVD's there and I was unable to off load some old DVD's for a couple of games, but now that the Fenton location closed I won't probably go to one again as there isn't one close to me that I would frequent.

Anyone go to Culture Shock yet? I think their grand opening was last week.

I think the Fenton one just moved a couple exits down to the south county mall.

[shrike4242]

Well, now I see what MSUHitman was talking about:

Sep. 24 - Slackers in South County
Slackers in Fenton is no more. However, don't get too upset because we've only moved to a new, better location. The Fenton Slackers is now the South County Mall Slackers!

Located in the former Neutral Zone location in between Sears and Dillards, Slackers is once again merging our store with theirs. We carry the usual music, movies and games, but are also carrying action figures, toys, and comics from days of old to the newest releases!

Much like our Mid Rivers location, this store is an incredible, breathtaking site to behold!! There's something here for everyone.

Watch out for our Security Force consisting of Spiderman, Wicket and a Jawa. You'll see what I mean when you enter the store!
View Locations (http://slackers.com/about/contact.html) for store address.

The Neutral Zone wasn't there that long, like a few months at most. :-s

[hufferstl]

Just in case you missed it, the chesterfield valley store also moved to the Mall a month or two ago.

[anomynous]

And there's a Slackers in Mid Rivers Mall now, because the O Fallon one will be closing when they start building the Super Wal Mart

[cytorak]

Well, now I see what MSUHitman was talking about:

The South County Mall is not really the target demographic for a store that has one wall consisting of Star Wars action figures.

If they were wrestling or Jeff Foxworthy action figures, that's a different story. :)

[Deefuzz]

Just in case you missed it, the chesterfield valley store also moved to the Mall a month or two ago.

I just saw that. Me and my girlfriend were at the Chestefield mall recently and saw it.

The prices weren't as bad as I remember them being, but some of the CD prices were laughable.

[schuerm26]

Speaking of the Chesterfield Mall, anyone been in there and seen the decent looking chick with the incredibly high pitched voice?

Hopefully she doesn't look at CAG, because I highly doubt there is more than 1 worker at the Mall with an incredibly high squeaking voice.

All I can say is I don't think I have ever heard a voice quite like it.

Edit: When I say speaking of, I mean 3 posts back.

[sendme]

I goto the slackers in Glen Carbon/Edwardsville IL and some times the O'Fallen IL one. From what I was told they might close the one in Glen Carbon/edwardsville to make the walmart larger. I went in the other day to see if they had the evil dead books of the dead dvds. I can usually find hard to find things at them for less then what they would be on ebay. I saw a shit load of comics there though. So I don't know when they started to sell them. I would rather they kept selling Sega stuff then the comics.

[MSUHitman]

Anyone been to Culture Shock yet? It's off Highway 94 in St. Peters/St. Charles.

[sendme]

Its about a 45 minute drive for me so I wont be checking that place out for a long time if at all. It would be nice to have some stuff on the IL side.

Video Games LIVE concert will be at the Fox Theatre on Sat., Jan. 26 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $32.50-$42.50 with a $4-6 fee per ticket. For those that don't know, this is the traveling music show put together by Tommy Talarico that has an orchestra playing the greatest video game themes/music tracks of all time.

[The Linguist]

If anyone is desparate for a Wii, the TRU in Columbia (exit 124 off I70) has them. I was there around 5 tonight and the guy said they just opened a fresh box of them. I don't know how many that means they have but it's likely they'll still have some tomorrow (Monday).

[schuerm26]

Play N Trade has just opened it's first MO store on 14331 Manchester Rd. Has anyone gone there yet?

I went there about a month ago. Selection was very limited. That might have changed by now though. They pricematch on everything though, so that's a plus. At least I was told they did.

[shrike4242]

Play N Trade has just opened it's first MO store on 14331 Manchester Rd. Has anyone gone there yet?Am I crazy to think that used to be an EB store? I remember there used to be an EB store around that part of Manchester before the merger, and the GS store in the shopping plaza with the defunct CompUSA caused it to close after the merger.

[MSUHitman]

If it's what I'm thinking of next to the tire store and Becky's carpet store then you are correct. That EB actually stayed open for about 1 year after the merger, then boom, it was gone on a Monday without any warning. It was the closest store to work and I always made my purchases there as I could get them during lunch. Bought my PSP (which I sold to someone in Feb.) on launch weekend there.

The manager at that EB got demoted I think to asst. manager at the Gamestop that you mentioned by Hollywood Video and was going through hundreds of receipts transfering pre-orders into that stores system since at the time EB/Gamestop systems were not compatible.

[schuerm26]

Am I crazy to think that used to be an EB store? I remember there used to be an EB store around that part of Manchester before the merger, and the GS store in the shopping plaza with the defunct CompUSA caused it to close after the merger.

As far as I remember there was never an EB in there. There was an EB just on the other side of 141 that closed awhile ago.

[MSUHitman]

Well did anyone or anyone you know brave the 8 inches of snow to get in line for a Wii today?

Also who's going to Video Games Live concert in January? Maybe we could do a CAG STL group meetup?

[MSUHitman]

There's a huge electronics liquidation sale going on at the Gateway Center this weekend. TV's, PC's, games (Gears of War for $20), digital cameras, etc. It started today but is open 10-10 on Saturday and 11-6 on Sunday.

I went to something like this about 2 yrs ago, and it sucked big time. Cost $10 or $20 to get in and then the prices weren't even good. No clue if this is the same thing though.

[shrike4242]

If any of you out there are looking for 60GB PS3's, I ran into a few of them at the Sam's Club on Lemay Ferry in South County. There looked like somewhere between 3-6 of them, listed as a "bundle" with Motorstorm for $549.99. Hardly a deal, of course, though it's the first place I've seen any 60GB PS3's in months.

They also had a few Xbox 360 Wireless wheel sets, the new one without the overheat issue, listed as a "Seasonal Item" (aka once they're gone, they're gone), for ~$86-$87. I picked one up, mainly since I think this is as cheap as it'll get for that wheel. This is the new one, which doesn't come with PGR3, though comes with the demo version of Forza 2.

[Protektor]

I was told by a friend that there exists another Software Plus location. The one on Olive closed down :cry:

Anyone know anything about it?

If I'm not mistaken there is a Software Plus out here in St. Charles near Jungerman and McClay road. It's in one of those areas of stores on the south side of Jungerman before you get to McClay.

[Protektor]

Last time I saw the GGC's at the South County store, they were sitting in the CD racks on the endcaps for the CD. The area facing the registers where the put some of the "hot sellers" and "new releases".

What does GGC stand for? I'm not familar with it.

[Protektor]

Just in case you missed it, the chesterfield valley store also moved to the Mall a month or two ago.

Yea they had to move to Chesterfield Mall because they lost their lease because Wal-Mart is expanding in the Chesterfield Valley to become a Super Center. There were like 4-5 stores that were kicked out/moved east so Wal-Mart could expand.

How many of you are going to end up going? Maybe some of us could meet at this event and get to know each other if enough people are going.

[MSUHitman]

What does GGC stand for? I'm not familar with it.

GGC= Gamer's Gift Card. It was a special gift certificate Best Buy had in their video game section that had on the back of it a $5 off coupon of any video game item that cost $20 or more. BB had these for a couple of years then discontinued them early last year.

In regards to Video Games Live, unless someone else has gotten tickets and not posted yet, I am the only CAG who has bought tickets.

[schuerm26]

Don't know if it is still available (moved from STL to KC yesterday), but there is a listing on craigslist that says something like PS2 system and a bunch of PS1 games for $75. Final Fantasy VII and Silent Hill were listed.

[quickstraw]

Hey there, i'm another STL CAG. i'm also going to the video games live show. cant wait!

[MSUHitman]

If anyone knows someone looking for a 360 Holiday bundle with the free games, as of yesterday, two places by me still had them. Game On at Dougherty Ferry and Big Bend and the Game Crazy out at Gravois Bluffs off 141 in Fenton each had one Elite left with the free games. I don't know whether they're Falcons or not though.

I live a few blocks away from that family video that was mentioned as well. On the negative end of things, i had to bring my used copy of mass effect back (which they gleefully resurfaced again!). We'll see if the copy works any better this time. They do have some crazy deals though.

If anyone wants to brave the weather, another STL-area CAG (forgot the name, sorry) said the Wal-Mart in Town and Country (Manchester Rd.) has broken the street date on MLB The Show on at least PS3, nor sure about PS2 or PSP. They put it out for sale yesterday.

Edit 8 p.m.- Cancel that on getting MLB The Show early. Just came back from that Wally World and either they sold out or they pulled it because there's a spot for it on the shelf but no copies.

Walmart in Glen Carbon/Edwardsville IL had atleast 4 of them yesterday around 3:30-4:00 pm. Don't know if they are sold out now or not. One of the Wii boxes was beat up a little on the corners.

Then go buy it. You can sell that thing for $650 plus $40 shipping in about 3 days on ebay.

Not sure what K-Mart has them listed at but I got some at Blockbuster for $449 plus tax.

I think the CC in Fenton at the Bluffs still had a copy of Lunar Knights in the clearance bin but don't quote me on it.

[shrike4242]

Last night, there was a huge number (8+, if I remember right) of copies of Blue Dragon at the Sunset Hills TRU, the one by Hwy 44 & Lindbergh. They were towards the bottom of the dump bin, so you'll need to dig to find them.

There was at least one copy of Blazing Angels 2 there was well. Also, random other clearance TRU games, most of them in the dump bin on the floor. Some were off to the side in the locked case.

Same scenario for game placement in the South County TRU, though much less of good pickings.

[MSUHitman]

Mid Rivers and South County Best Buy and the 2 STL Game Crazy locations left (Fenton and in the city) will be having midnight launches for Grand Theft Auto IV. Gamestop's I guess are a case-by-case basis but none of the stores I visit have any signs saying they're going to do that.

I will be at the Fenton Game Crazy if anyone is coming there.

Anyone know where I can find a copy of Etrian Odyssey and/or Lunar Knights?

I can't find either of them anywhere, and I'd rather buy them at a B&M.

The Game Crazy up in Ferguson has one sealed copy of Etrian Odyssey left for $30. I've been thinking of picking it up for weeks, but haven't yet. You can have it if you want it. It was still there this morning.

[sirhansirhan]

they have a 60 GB PS3 at the K Mart in O Fallon MO just so you guys know......


But it's in the back

What are you getting at with the "it's in the back" statement? Is an employee holding it? Do you know if it is still available? I know I'm seeing this post a little late...

Would anyone be interested in doing a CAG meetup like some of the other regions are doing? Like on Memorial Day or 4th of July like at Dave and Busters or something like that?

I would definitely be down for a CAG meetup sometime, but I will be out of town on both of those days. So if anything gets agreed on that is sometime when I am in town I will be there!

I'm about an hour south of STL. If anyone see's Saga Frontier or knows where one is, will you send me a PM? Thanks :D

[gleditts]

Anyone know of any good Gears of War deals in STL?

Buy it used at Gamestop, Game Crazy, or an independent store. Or go on EBay. This game won't drop in price for a new copy until this fall right before GoW 2 ships.

Walmart in Glen Carbon/Edwardsville IL had atleast 4 of them yesterday around 3:30-4:00 pm. Don't know if they are sold out now or not. One of the Wii boxes was beat up a little on the corners.

Good to see another E'ville person around here. :D

I just wanted to say hey to all me STL brothers out there. A CAG meet up would be pretty neat. Keep me updated.

MSU... I plan on trying to give you Podcast a listen while at work in the next couple weeks. I've been wanting to work on a Podcast myself but haven't found anyone in the area who is really interested. I'm quite addicted to listening to them while I paint and design stuff at work.

[MSUHitman]

Thanks Ryno.

If anyone is interested, the Fenton, MO Gamestop has 2 Nyko Perfect Shots for the Wii.

Is this going on at any other Best Buy in the area other than Fenton? If it is, are the games near the register in a cage, or does someone have to get them from the stock room in the back of the store.

[cytorak]

Anyone seen Etrian Odyssey II in the area stores yet?

Hate to tell you but I'm not. I'm from Granite City. I just goto Edwardsville because I hate the Walmart in Granite City. Hell if I could buy food in Edwardsville and not take the chance of it going bad by the time I got home I would. At times I already buy gas outside of town.

[Ryuukishi]

Does anyone know of an STL-area target that still has Final Fantasy II PSP or Metroid Prime Corruption on clearance?

[shrike4242]

If anyone is looking for a MGS4 bundle in-store, the Sears store in South County has one, at least, they did yesterday.

It's hidden among the PS3 stuff, and underneath a 40GB non-bundle system.

[gamegirl79]

I don't know if the Nyko Perfect Shots are still hard to find, but the Best Buy in Brentwood had several of them for $14.99. They also had several Ninja Gaiden wall graphics for a penny.

In the same boat as you my friend :P

Is that Game On store still around, was mentioned in this thread awhile back, wanting to know if it's still around.

Any other independent used game stores in the STL/IL area worth checking out?

Thanks!!

[MSUHitman]

Yes they are still around.

http://www.myspace.com/gameon_mo is their website.

Slackers CDs and Games is about the only one that I know of. You might try the only one Vintage Vinyl we have in the STL area now. Before the one in GC closed they started to sell some games and movies. It wasn't much but they did seem to be like they were trying to become another Slackers.

[hufferstl]

The prices were always high, but you might have some luck at CD Warehouse near 270 and Tesson Ferry, just south of Lindbergh.

Chesterfield Target has Kane & Lynch: Dead Men(360) for $9.99.

[MSUHitman]

Game On is doing a buy 2 get 1 free sale right now on used games. The employee yesterday didn't know when it ended but signs were in every used section. They have a good selection of XBox, PS2, and 360 used games, and a limited selection of PS3, Gamecube, and Wii used games.

[MSUHitman]

Well Game On is getting out of the video game business and going to concentrate on tabletop games and comics. Starting Friday, until they're sold out, all of their used games are 50% off the sticker price. I was there playing VS System tonight and they had a copy of Fallout 3 on 360, so if it lasts until Friday, there's a $25 copy of Fallout 3 for you!

They're going to do discounts on their new products and accessories eventually, but don't get too excited as they haven't gotten any new release games in since Soul Calibur IV. They will also be doing EBay auctions, once those are going I'll let everyone know.
