You can get The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (Xbox 360) for $43.95 with free shipping now at deepdiscount dvd. Looks like maybe a price drop but could be an error.

Link here http://www.deepdisco...zM2Rkc1h4dz09Cg

Check my signature for a website that gives 3% cash back for DDD as well

Edited to add this is GOY addition it looks like. I better go check amazon for their price. Ok amazon doesnt seem to have this listed. Only PS3 verison for $59.99 so ???

[kurtthehurt]

release date = 9/04

They won't honor it, DD sucks at that type of thing

Yeah it is a pre-order. Can't find 360 version at other retailers. Amazon had PS3 version. Buy had the version with the 360 icon for $59.99 and no icon for $39.99

Can't tell what system http://www.buy.com/p.../204973794.html

XBOX 360 for sure http://www.buy.com/p.../204954436.html

I think the second is the correct listing. So the other ddd and buy.com might be errors or place holders.

Tried a search and nothing came up recent about pricing of GOY

I have never had a problem with DDD. Just not sure what retail is supposed to be.

[shrike4242]

Yeah, my order from two months ago with the pricing screw-up still shows as processing.

They're jackasses.

Sorry dude I don't remember that one..was it the coupon when the site changed over to add books?

I have ordered 400+ times (Crap note to self cut back on dvd spending) and have had nothing but good cs from them. Try calling them tomorrow and at the least they can close out the order. If the item is on backorder they leave open until they can fill it..so if item is on backorder it will never close out without human intervention

Back two months ago, they had some screwed-up prices on games, like $5.99 for Oblivion 360 CE and $2.59 for Ace Combat Zero. Two CAGs managed to get a game apiece, most everyone else had their orders cancelled. Some of us have orders that live in limbo and never get closed out, never get fulfilled.

Even before that, I've not had much good luck with their CS. Usually seem like clueless dumbfucks when I talk to them on the phone.

I remember that deal now. It was an obvious price mistake so I am not sure them not honoring is such a big deal. No different than Amazon does or today with BB and the impend cancellations of RB. Anyway it looks like you can preorder Oblivion GOY for $26 off a new release price if you want to and if you don't that's your choice as well.

[crzyboy88]

$60 - $44 = $16, not $26

[shrike4242]

Actually, the GOTY version of Oblivion is MSRP'd @ $49.99, not $59.99.

[crzyboy88]

In that case, it's a savings of $6 then.

P.S. Where did you hear it would be $49.99?

[Jimbo Slice]

worst
deal
ever

DD is okay but it takes FOREVER to come. 2 DVD's I ordered took over 2 weeks to get to me before.

Oh please like thats fair. You picked free shipping which is media mail.

DDD CS isn't that bad, it took a few calls but they honored the $28.99 Twilight Princess for Gamecube which I got off them.

[emperordahc]

I love DDD. The shipping is free (takes a week or two) and no tax. I've ordered probably close to $1k of DVDs from them, and never once have I had any kind of problem.

Yeah saw that but can't edit title.

Since when?



I know EBgames guesstimated it at $50 waaaaaaaayyyyyy back, but since then they've put it back at $60, as expected.

[h3llbring3r]

DDD gets a D- in my book, they have cancelled 3 orders with me, and items leave their warehouse very slowly. (probably a good thing for them since they can't keep there list prices straight).

[mykevermin]

They're jackasses.

This may contribute to their jackassery, but DDD accidentally shipped out Harry Potter Book 7 3-4 days early. Those fortunate enough to preorder from them, by and large, were offered $50 gift certs and free HP shirts by Scholastic in return for remaining quiet until the book's official release.

Now, of course, DDD is going to face a substantial fine from Scholastic for breaking street date; but, in the end, something like this entices me to preorder from DDD more! (of course, your anecdote, with this one, suggests that they are cheap but poorly organized, so I'll pass on it).

[awp]

Anyone who wants the non-GOTY edition, the regular version is now $24.99 used at Blockbuster/GameRush.

Since the last time I looked at it, it was $50. If it's now $60, then I stand corrected.

[Decker]

Thanks. I was looking for a deal on this release.

Any idea why they show a 9/28 release when Game Spot shows a 9/3 date?

[TravistyOJ]

Thanks, I'm in for one. I've never used DDD, hopefully I won't get screwed like some of the others.

[silks]

Tempting, but since I have a $20 Best Buy gift certificate I'm going to hold off and see if BB puts it on sale for $49.99 during its week of release. Getting the GoTY Edition for less than $35 after tax would be sweet.

[kklems]

If that buy.com link for $39.99 is the 360 version maybe it could be combined with google checkout to get it for $29.99 plus shipping? I remember a back door for using gco with backordered items...probably do a google search to find it.

[weevles]

Hm, still listed at $43.99 where most places list it as $59.99. Meh, went ahead and ordered. I've been waiting for Oblivion to drop for a while, too. :p

[silks]

In terms of pricing, the GotY is $49.99 for PC and $59.99 for 360 and PS3.

I've been watching this game for a while (check out my FAQ over on the Bethesda forums), and it's looking like it'll ship on September 11th.

This is really tempting.

[Bloodbooger]

Tagged for later.

[NolbertoS]

About time Bethesda released the GOTY edition. Been waiting along time just for the GOTY, didnt' want to risk buying the regular Oblivion edition and not have the expansion paks on it.
