Total price over $50 I think. And you can add the lightning deals to your cart to reserve them but not checkout until later, so you can combine a couple items to get it there. I managed to get the discover deal on two different orders the last two days.

EDIT: Other posts in this thread seem to indicate that the deal stopped sometime around when Forza went on sale.
 
[quote name='lovemetal626']what was " :ps3: You don't want to play on the PS3 without one of these" ???[/QUOTE]

Dual Shock 3 for $38.98, yep, $1 dollar off!
Big disappointment.
 
[quote name='lokutus1']nice! how early did you have to get there? did they have just a few wristbands? i thought about it for a second, but the weather here sucked and i heard the line was long.[/QUOTE]

I got there personally @ around 2 with my girlfriend, we missed the 360 bracelets, but got 2 ps3 copies. gonna attempt to return one to walmart for beatles Rb when i get off work in a few :) oh and bracelets were VERY limited. they ran out fast, but there was a realy tall guy helping people get items from the top racks, and i saw a sales girl give him a bracelet for being nice. perhaps it was her personal one? not sure.
 
I actually picked up L4D2. I had mad credit from this summer so it worked out.... i actually got in on the gamestop deal too but they are going back... Borderlands ($20)and L4D2 ($30) were some of my main targets and I got both at extremely fair prices on Amazon.... My back log is so big I really need to bow out now.... I was going to get Dragon Age Origins but I may just hold off and see if I get it for X-Mass.....
 
So far amazon has been great
-L4D2 PC- 30$
-Farcry 2 PC- 5$
-Assassins Creed PC- 5$
-Klonoa Wii-10$
-Dead Space Extraction Wii- 25$
-Pikimin Wii-15$
-ExiteBots Wii-15$
-Call of Juarez BiB 360- 20$
-Tekken DR PSP- 10$

Hopefully the last thing I pick up is GTA episodes for 360, if its the lighting deal at the end of the day.
 
I'm curious what the Liberty City deal is. GTAIV for $10 again? I guess it could also be Chinatown Wars on DS or PSP as well.

I hope it's Episodes from Liberty for $20.

Edit: forgot it could be Liberty City Stories on PSP or PS2. Hopefully they don't end it on such an old game.
 
Seems to be mixed reviews lol. People either think Amazon did amazing and those person generally bought alot. Others say it was bad and generally arent buying anything.


EDIT: Still wondering whats going on with the Xbox 360 Bundle Deal, was the L4D2 game it for the whole day?

Nice work. Is Pikmin an all-day thing? I still have been meaning to get that. Not that I need to add more to the backlog... :roll:
 
I have a fourty dollar credit I have to use today .. but there is nothing I want. May end up buying DJ hero..
 
Yeah, I couldn't find a single deal worthwhile for me but that's mostly because they only had PC deals on old games and there's no PS3 games I need. They didn't stray at all from the path, so any surprise bargains were nowhere.
 
[quote name='slipkornotpsu']Boo, i got my copy of GTA IV I ordered today and its the plat hits version[/QUOTE]
what were you expecting?

You're probably right about it being Liverty City Stories. Fits the clue.

Man, I was kind of hoping for a deal on the GTAIV DLC.

EDIT: wait, nm. I misremembered the clue.
 
I'd say Amazon has done a fine job with the price matches so I could stay home and do my shopping. And they just rocked big time with a $99 deal on The Beatles Stereo box set!
 
[quote name='Mahoney07']Save the galaxy from annihilation

What in the world is that?[/QUOTE]
It is clearly Super Mario Galaxy going for 25 dollars!
no really.

However, many people would scream that instead is the new Ratchet and Clank for the ps3
 
[quote name='slowpantz']Hopefully the last thing I pick up is GTA episodes for 360, if its the lighting deal at the end of the day.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, that's the only thing I've wanted all week. If it's $25 or lower I'll pick up that and maybe Call of Jaurez (PS3).
 
Fallout 3 GOTY is $49.99 now it was $56.99 earlier. hmmmmm

I'd like to see that get to $39.99

and I'd like to see Force Unleashed Sith Edition get to $29.99
 
[quote name='slipkornotpsu']Not the plat hits version lol, I got it for free so i"m not going to complain to much lol[/QUOTE]
There's no difference in the 2 versions.
 
[quote name='thebigeast']I'd say Amazon has done a fine job with the price matches so I could stay home and do my shopping. And they just rocked big time with a $99 deal on The Beatles Stereo box set![/QUOTE]
THIS

People keep thinking that Amazon is some sort of Rich company that was going to sell everything 5 dollars less than the other retail companies on the Lightning Deals.
You were going to find the same deals outside on Retail, right on Amazon.
 
[quote name='thebigeast']I'd say Amazon has done a fine job with the price matches so I could stay home and do my shopping. And they just rocked big time with a $99 deal on The Beatles Stereo box set![/QUOTE]

Pretty much; all gaming disappointment redeemed. Since I had the DJ Hero $40 credit, got the set for $60. So even though DJ Hero will probably drop like a rock later, I effectively got it and the Beatles Stereo Box for a combined price that about matches the cheapest I've seen the Beatles box go for elsewhere.

Black Friday has now been a total win for me.
 
I love Amazon, but I don't see how anyone could say this was an excellent sale. Most of what they did was price match the major retailers. They had a chance to one up them by offering slight discounts on the products that were already on sale OR by offering a variety of different products for sale through the lightning deals. The response has been lukewarm, as many of these lightning deals are staying up for the duration of their availability. This has not been the case over the past month, where several lightning deals have been gone in seconds.

I still love Amazon though. I'll gladly take a price match and free 2-day shipping to avoid the trip to the major retailer. The stress and energy involved has its own costs. Also, they have had some great deals scattered in there. I am grateful to have gotten the Tekken 6 (360) bundle for $60. To think that they offered it for $30 for the PS3 is quite astounding.

the bundle with the fight stick was $30?!!?!??!
 
Amazon got me to bite on the Altec Lansing T612 for 60 bucks! And I just bought the beatles set that I've been eyeing for 100!! Great deals!

Nothing gaming related for me except NBA Live but that's ok bc I have the games I want except DJ hero and the psp go.
I wish I would jumped on the dj hero deal this morning when I had the chance since I would have ended up using the credit on some great deals.
 
No tax + free shipping + the same or lower prices on items + not having to deal with going out at a stupid early time and deal with total morons = amazon being fucking awesome.
 
[quote name='igotnodough']the bundle with the fight stick was $30?!!?!??![/QUOTE]

A week or so ago it was. It was $60 this week.

And yeah, I got the main things i wanted. L4D2, Tekken 6 bundle, DJ Hero (95 +40 credit, ordering something for my friend with that $40 credit so DJ Hero totaling $55 with free 2 day shipping is win).

Amongst several awesome DVD and Blu-Ray sales without ever having to leave the house? Yeah, this has been a good BF overall.
 
[quote name='dino88']There's no difference in the 2 versions.[/QUOTE]

I know, i just don't like the plat hits cases. Never have since they did them for the original xbox. Hate the way they stick out on the shelf lol.
 
how do you readd an item to your shopping cart after choosing a lightning deal and then deleting it? i added ODST but then realized i didnt go thru CAG so i then removed it. Its saying now that the deal has been claimed but wont let me add it to my shopping cart for $29. Anybody know?

I don't think you can. Just make a new amazon account.

For almost everyone, matching retailers (which are BF deals so pretty good) means no gas, no tax and no crowds.

To me, that's one upping the retailers.

Yes the deals today were a little disappointing. But over the course of the past week, I must have bought 20 things from Amazon.

Go to the normal ODST page, add it at full price.

It will be in the cart full-price, but the final order confirmation page will (90% of the time) auto-magically display the discount and give you the LD price.

Does not apply if deal expires/sells out before you attempt your re-check, but the discount is tied to your account and so deleting it from cart should not ruin things for you.

Just return to your shopping cart. It should still be there but you have to click the move to cart button.
