Oh that's shill bidding when you articifially jack up the price. reported to eBay. I think 2 of them get you banned

this thread because I missed it last night, but where would I go aside from Kmart that will stock the Hardened Edition? I know Kmart will in very limited amounts. What about Walmart? Best Buy? Target? Toys R Us? Anyone know for sure if any of these stores will be carrying the Hardened Edition at their B&M locations?

I was checking Amazon before this thread was created and hardened editions were all sold out...

I'm going to be pissed if they actually have 900+ copies but removed the listings.

Yeah, but those who don't want to deal with KMart due to past experiences (me) or just it being too far its not plausible.

But its still a hellva great deal (the KMart one)

Imo, target can be a great place to pick up special/limited editions, at least in my area. On 2 pre-orders at bestbuy (1 for marvel capcom 2 special edition, and the other for forza)...both time bestbuy ed up and so I didn't get it from them. With the marvel vs capcom one, I went to target right after leaving my bestbuy (about 10:30 am) and was able to pick up a copy and noticed they had more for both systems. With forza, a couple days after it was released, i saw copies avaialble as well.

I asked my local bestbuy yesterday if they received their shipment yet, and was told they had received enough to fulfil all pre-orders plus would have extra to sale on release. So it will be entirely dependent on how many pre-orders your store has and whether or not if it is considered a low volume store. I know for me, on forza release day (october 11), the gaming supervisor made it a point to show me where I was on the list for forza as well as mw3, I was about 6 and at that time they had about 15 pre-orders for mw3....and my bestbuy is considered a low volume store.

Same deal for me...The guys at best buy said to just come to the midnight opening if I wanted the Hardened edition because they usually have a few extra. There wasn't really a list either though because for my store, the midnight opening is just first come first serve if you have a preorder. Last time I went there wasnt even a line until 11:59pm because they just let us roam the entire store while waiting there.

I honestly wouldnt mind buying the Hardened Edition but if I dont get it, its no big deal to me.

Thanks for the info. I'll probably try Target then and maybe Best Buy.
