UPDATE: My clever plan to use a PayPal dispute to prove my ID backfired somewhat. PayPal opened a dispute, which allows for an exchange of messages between buyer and seller, but their system immediately escalated it to a claim, which does not. Upon calling them back to figure out WTF happened...

All of the "keys" sites I've tried--cdkeys, g2a, and now this nokeys. Incidentally, g2a wouldn't let me register because apparently "fool" (as in "speleofool") is "profanity." Lol. CD Keys ended up accepting a photo of a piece of mail confirming my address matches my PayPal address. Nokeys...

Signed up for first time and getting the run-around worse than usual for "anti-fraud" measures. Have been through this with other keys sites where they want photos of government IDs and other sketchy stuff, but they're stonewalling me because the legal name on my IDs is not the same as the...

If you have any programming experience at all it's super-easy. If you don't, there are some sample programs available on the controllermax (Cronus) site that implement turbo functions. If you dig around I think there are some that allow you to vary the speed of the turbo, which may help...

Nice to see Best Buy carry these.  Agree that this isn't exactly a "deal," but since so many people have had questions about these I thought I'd jump into the conversation.  Not only do I own a couple of these, but I've done some development with them and I'm an expert in USB hardware...

Hmmm, no go. Must have been a pricing error? I saw the same deal on a web ad elsewhere, but when I got to wbshop their price is $41.99 (drops to $36.99 in cart). Found this CAG post when I did a search to see what was up (e.g., missing coupon code or something?). Seems like this is either a...

Huh. Sure enough, I see it there now. The steps you posted here are exactly what I have been doing to confirm pre-order bonus points. Funny that I couldn't find Brink listed on Monday and neither could BBY customer servce when I called, but now the deal is posted just like it was there all...

No, that's on the Rewards Zone site now. You'll get 500 points for ordering online. For the benefit of anyone who hasn't been through the long and arduous process of earning bonus points for online purchases, here's how it works: shortly after you make your purchase (a few days, perhaps) you...

Sorry for getting peoples' hopes up--looks like CAG16 DID NOT STACK for me after all.... I think they must have been working on the checkout pages. I had endless trouble with coupon codes & more both last night and this morning. For example, when I placed my final order this morning I was...

Was just going to post this myself. :) I picked up Red Dead Redemption and a few used titles this morning. 25DEAL stacked with CAG16 (16% off used), SAVER (free Value Shipping) and Edge Card. It didn't stack with F2D65 (free 2-day shipping on > $65 order), but I can wait....

FWIW, I confirmed these are $10 in AZ (Tempe location). Also, ppl may not realize that the arcade joystick support turbo. Try looking up turbo controllers on ebay to see how expensive a regular gamepad is. They're apparently near-impossible to find anymore, and friends have told me they're...
