Same thing happens to me with BB. I believe their garbage system isn't actually accurate, where it will tell you a game is unavailable at certain stores when it's actually in stock.
No House of the Dead for PS3? Yakuza 4 still at $17? Mortal Kombat for $22? I have a $5 off coupon and I'm still not inclined to buy a damn thing. Between BB having games they won't ship and are not available within 100 miles and this junk sale, I think I'm done buying games until next year.
