My points has taken as long as 2 weeks to show up as pending.

The transaction shows up in a timely fashion though.

Do I panic? No. I assume their system is lagging big time on my account. Why the lag? Don't know. All I know is that the end result has always worked the way it should. Whether I call on the 28th day to get the points, or give them a few weeks... end result is still the same.

Win.

I have had 3 preorders so far work fine, I have never had a transaction show up first without the 1,000 points and then the 1,000 points added later.

Add on the fact that anthology is special edition and yes there is a reason to doubt if it will ever be added.

big news from best buy. they will price match online retailers this holiday season. this is a pretty big deal when you combine with the rz credit, and possibly 60 (silver) days to price match.

only question is what the "holiday season" is exactly date wise

I'd reckon 11/24-12/26. They probably don't want too big of a window.

Would that be for games as well?

it doesnt say for sure, but I took it as anything that falls under their price match guarantee.

Called my Best Buy about this. They are saying it starts immediately but does not include accessories (not sure what that entails), install services, and geek squad services (including the protection plans). So it seems like it will include video game systems and games (which is awesome!!!) as well as everything else they sell like appliances and stuff.

These are the following sites they will price match:

• Amazon.com
• apple.com
• buy.com
• circuitcity.com
• dell.com
• lowes.com
• sears.com
• walmart.com
• tigerdirect.com
• target.com
• staples.com
• newegg.com
• officemax.com
• officedepot.com
• hp.com
• homedepot.com
• hhgreg.com
• crutchfield.com

Yep, I went to price match Newegg's Yakuza Dead Souls yesterday and was shocked when they pulled up their PM list and Newegg was on there. This is gonna be fun! Or bad...for my wallet. I like buying at BB to get RZ points, and it's literally 3 minutes from my house, so it's convenient.

Also, my Dishonored bonus points posted nicely. I am loving Best Buy this year!

The only downside is the tax/gas, but you can also call bestbuy.com and they will price match over the phone for you and most of the time there is free shipping, so that can save on gas, but it'll take a while to get it. It is nice thanks to the RZ stuff, earning points and using points on amazon stuff is very useful.

You want to price match msrp?

Newegg is good.

Just wish Frys was on there too.

will .com be doing this as well? or just instore?

.com as well. I just ordered Yakuza Dead Souls and Binary Domain for store pickup.

With the collector's editions of RE6, this hasn't happened despite 10 days worth of time passing. I don't think there is anything wrong with raising this issue with Best Buy rather than having to argue with them about it 30-35 days from now when the return window closes. Honestly, if you guys are so upset by this discussion, why are you even in this thread? It's not like BB is adding new titles and the only reason to still be here is to post about the points or any problems anyone might be having with the promotion.

Not at all this is where news about pm'ing titles will leak generally since so many people are in the same boat looking for a match w/i the same buying window.

My points are now pending for resident evil. Nice.

Also the price match news is ing awesome.

Since the pm topic came up PC Richard has an crazy TV promo 3 TV's for $1400 & all of them are from Samsung. Obviously, getting the match BB would be better since you'd be getting at least another $25 in RZ certs

I thought online price match was only for electronics and appliances?

My 1000 dishonored points are showing in the transaction now, but they are not pending/reflected in my total. No Borderlands 2 points at all.

How weird--I suddenly got 1000 points for preordering Dishonored without having to wait for them to pend before posting, but my 1000 points for RE6 are still pending...
