I just brought my receipt in and she looked it up in the system off of the receipt.

I made an online order, so the rep called a local Best Buy near to confirm price and stock. I just got a PM, but your local store might need stock for it. It's pretty much YMMV if the rep needs to call the store.

If you have issues with calling in try going into the store with your order number to PM. PM for online orders are handled as return repurchase or exchange, so you may lose you Gamer's Unlocked RZ points.

I'm in Michigan and I just got back from adjusting my release-day copy. I only brought my receipt and I simply said I would like a price adjustment on this game that should be currently on sale. I let the register/worker do the work and it was like any other return or price match.

I feel much better about $70 for the LE. I was on the fence of the value at $100 and definitely felt ripped off after some of the perks were given away for free, but this seems like I'm getting more than I paid for. Thanks to aircobra for posting this.

Dang, I think I would have gotten it but the girl helping me got hung up on the limited edition guide and was confused on what item I wanted to get price matched. Maybe I will try another Best Buy later.

Question. I'm wanting the Season Pass for Halo 4 with little concern for Limited Edition extras. Would it be a cheaper choice for me to trade in my vanilla copy of Halo 4 and get the LE or just find some cheap Microsoft Points for the Season Pass. I could care less about the other contents of the LE. Season Pass is my main concern.

You'll get a little more than $30 for your tradein, so the season pass + other bonuses is going to set you back $40, while buying MSP at current prices is going to set you back about $20 for 2000 for the season pass on XBL. Unless you're planning on selling the Steelbook and notebook and stuff to cover the differences, it won't be worth it.

Thanks for the quick response!

Does anybody know how the personal shopper program works for silver members? I saw one at a store about 40 miles away a few days ago, but passed thinking my local store still had some. I was wrong and if I understand things properly, they would ship one over from the other store. Is this how it works?

EDIT: I was able to call and have them hold the them at the farther store, and they are $69.99.

Nice. Took about 30 minutes on the phone with customer service but I managed to price match my In Store Pickup I had made. Can't beat $30+tax back and getting that $20 reward certificate for pre-ordering!

Walked in with my receipt, went to customer service, walked out with $31.08 back in my account in 5 minutes.

Thanks for the heads up!

Went to a different Best Buy and got the Price Match. I really don't think she found the game in the computer because she looked for it for 5 minutes and then asked "How much was it on sale for again?" and within 30 seconds she put $31.80 on my credit card. I won't complain.

Same here, thanks OP!

man, this went off without a hitch. They didn't even notice the 'package promotion' from when I bought the guide with it. $32.xx refunded to my BB CC.

And for all those that aren't getting the PM due to it not being in stock, I ran a few possible throwbacks in my head on the way to the store: 1) well yeah, seeing as if the store only got enough for pre-orders, I wouldn't expect you to have any and/or 2) oh, thats no problem, I still have it sealed at home and can be right back to do a return re-buy (and hopefully the don't call the bluff b/c you know that sh*t ain't still sealed )

so how have people gotten a pm for online orders? can't view the item page or price

Thanks, OP, just finished a call with BB Online post purchase support and they PM'd me with no issue. I wouldn't have found this on my own, so many thanks!

I am currently in Aruba, I called from here and they just called my local store and price adjusted no problem, took less than 10 minutes. Thanks OP and happy new year everyone!

Got shut down in Rego Park NY. Manager said had to have in store stock.

Managed to have customer service match in store even though it was an online order with an override.

Try another store. You could also do a return/rebuy I believe.

Thanks op got the $$$ in my account!
