Best Online Deal: Amazon.com: Deal of the Day


After three years of EBgames.com domination, it seems Amazon is on its way to starting the next Cheapy Awards dynasty. This year, Amazon.com simply dominated the competition, winning every relevant Cheapy Award. Amazon's combination of great deals and superb customer service resulted in CAGs forking over their cash (and their hearts) to the new king of online video game retail. Congratulations to Amazon on their impressive victories!

Amazon has posted a response on their Game Room Blog.

That Saturday was sick.

Amazon's Black Friday Sale, specifically the Korg DS-10 for $25. It may not be for everyone, but that is an INSANE price for that software.

Amazon... you can't beat every deal they had.

 

[shrike4242]

Amazon.com Black Friday pricing was truly a monster on my wallet, for both a TV, BR's/DVD's and games.

Live.com cashback is a great online deal, though not retailer-specific.

Tho I'd say Amazon will probably get it...just for variety, how about that Target online clearance that popped up in the middle of the year? I scored a cheap Genji, some ppl nabbed Heavenly Sword, and I know there were some others.
