Wow, now I'm jealous. Really wanted those artbooks, too. Mega Man, Udon Art of Capcom 1&2, Okami, P3 Design Works, and the Mega Man Battle Network and Star Force ones.

sad smiley

Got two $6 books today and my Spider-Man Web of Shadows for DS. Game arrived complete. The books arrived in pretty decent shape for shipping in a giant padded envelope. Can't complain too much since they were only $6, but they really should have been in a box.

My four books shipped. I was so happy to capitalize on the deal that I never thought about ordering the CompTIA certificate training all-in-one packages they have for $90 each normally. :( To the wish list!

I admit that I got home late last night and tried for about ten minutes to force the code on my order.

Desperation is not a pretty color on me.

No deals this week. I assume they'll have something for this weekend given Memorial Day and whatnot.

I received two more of my $6 books, and they actually shipped them in one of those boxes with the pull tabs... but that didn't help the books arrive in near mint condition like new books should. The look like they were damaged by people thumbing through them in the store. I've received used books in better shape from Hastings. But again, for $6 I can't really complain. It just reminds me why I generally don't buy new books in store seeing how poorly people treat them at places like my local Barnes and Noble.

I got 3 of the 4 'price mistake' books last night, all in a paper envelope, but it was tight enough that there was little to no damage to the books. So happy they honored my order!

Got my final two $6 books. Arrived in another fold over box, but these ones look to be in near perfect shape. Huzzah.

new code for 30% off used books, today only: THEMENTALIST

Is there a glitch involved?

well unless theres a glitch that it includes new books or something, then no Although I havent tried glitching it so go wild!

ill take Blazblue for $6... throw that into the game night rotation

Thanks, hamokmonky. I updated the first post. Then gave Hastings some money for even more books.

Thanks. I picked the Marvel and DC encyclopedias for about $30 total. I needed to up my nerd cred a little over the summer.

As mentioned before, their online system is kind of wonky. It's getting better and orders come to stores almost instantaneously.. the problem is, though, stores don't have workers fulfilling online orders all day. So yeah, you could place an order in the afternoon, the store gets the order but sells it before the night's over, the inventory updates overnight, your order is canceled since the product is gone, and the employee prints off the rest of the orders the next morning.

Ordered a copy of "World of Disgaea" artbook for $1.40 shipped. Woohah!

I checked out the main site today and they have Red Dead Redemption GOTY for both formats new for 19.99. But, when you place the order the price is 30.xx each. I called their customer service and let them know about the problem on the web site. The price is good however, so if you haven't purchased this game already, now's the time!

They had to give me a reference number for my order and they will be refunding the difference if you order before they fix the price on the web site.

Of course someone would start a new thread about it, but I've updated the first post. 30% off used games today only.

I think Hastings ran this promotion scheme once before where each day was 30% off in a certain category, then the weekend was 30% off or possibly even more? I can't recall off the top of my head. There's definitely got to be some kind of promotion this holiday weekend.

Saint's Row Double Pack for $11.59 shipped. I think I'm gonna have to jump on that.

anddddd they raised prices for the sale. cool.

I'm pretty sure they did that, and the holiday sale was 40% off in certain categories. I remember kicking myself about not waiting.

And I got my four books. All brand new and nice looking. I don't buy many books that come in shrink wrap, so that was awesome.
