Thanks OP. Picked it up over lunch via in store pick up. When the cashier open the door to get it, I saw 4-5 copies that were also held for in store pickup. (Plymouth, Pa) Checked the shelves in the vgame section and all were gone. Thank goodness I ordered yesterday.

Plymouth, PA as in Luzerne County?

I think they had one up here on the shelf, but I didn't see it the last time I was in. Not that I've actually played the third game the prior 2x I've had it, so I'd more than likely be buying it just for the extras and trade/sell the game again.

It's not ugly, but its not as good as it should be for a $100 set(it doesn't really look like Drake).

Thanks!! Yeah, my issue w/ this deal is that I already own the game if not I would have jumped on it w/out thinking. It's a shame the statue doesn't look good for the MRSP of the CE.

Thanks!! I guess, I will watch it drop in price or get a better one from eBay or somewhere.

I'm in the same area(Nanticoke, PA) and when I called they said they didn't have anything, but I know they aren't always the best at actually checking there.

Unfortunately you guys have two game stores down that way(Video Game Store on South Main, The Game Station on Lee Park) and I've seen at least the guy from the South Main store at various sales/clearances buying stuff up. He even runs a flea market stand at the drive-in up in Dickson City just about every weekend.

So that may explain some of the stuff that disappears in mass quantities.

Best Buy is getting the game retailer of the year in my book. I have already bought a LOT of games from their DOTD's and deeply discounted sales like this. Keep them coming

Btw, got 1 for in store pickup.

1 UC3 CE left at beaverton cedar hills.

Thanks OP was able to pick up a copy (last one in my store Hialeah, FL) on my break today.

You know, I've wondered where it went. I haven't been to either place yet for that stuff, but I've heard they charge ebay prices a lot, so I tend to stay away. I dunno, I'd love to get a good place to consistantly find stuff, but most of the thrift/GW stores I've looked into don't have a whole lot of anything, and when I email people on CL I either don't get an answer or they say it already sold. This is a way more frustrating area for this stuff then where I used to live.

I'd say this is a great deal.

I bought mine at launch unfortunately. Stupid me. But then again, I love this series... that is the price you pay for early adoption.

Because you made out like a bandit?

I picked up my Ratchet All 4 One today. I got a similar look when she saw what I paid.

Just sold the ring and belt buckle on eBay for $30. If you're planning on selling these do it now before it gets flooded with them. I've had my CE for a few months and knew I needed to get them up for sale quick with all of these that have been sold.

I'm gonna put on the belt buckle and look...badass?
And switch to AC buckle later

Lol, I guess so. I was very calm and pleasant on the outside, but once she saw what I was picking up, and gave me the look, I was like, "B*tch, gimme my CE!!" on the inside, haha. Although, I must admit, the box is surprisingly large. Larger than I thought it'd be. For a split second, I thought they screwed up and were about to give me an Uncharted 3 PS3 bundle. (I wish!)

Yeah if only Kotobukiya designed the figure for UC3. I'm still waiting for Batman to go down.

I hauled that thing 20 blocks because I was too cheap to drive and too cheap to pt it.

And I thought I was cheap by always calculating gas cost as precisely as possible...
