Thanx to Jim from dvdtalk

wherehouse.com has the code 33% off everything, new game, used game, preorder.. pretty good deal if you ask me.. too bad they don't seem to carrry Hardware otherwise.. i'd grab a DS :)

anyway the code is

ISC409OF
 
[quote name='bmarquardt']Fast Forward to Monday:

1000's of CAGs bitching when their orders get cancelled and Wherehouse.com offers a 10 percent off coupon for their error. Just kidding...I'm optimistic, but the above scenerio could play out. ;)

He he. I only ordered because I had $338 credit sitting there.[/QUOTE]
I think I'd be happy if that happened.. I'm kind of disappointed that I gave in and spent so much. I could then use a 10% of coupon for one or two cheapass dvd's.
 
[quote name='botticus']If you all don't steal them before tomorrow.[/QUOTE]

I know some in stock stuff I ordered previously is now OOS. I say, if you want something bad enough, be a helpful consumer and indulge before it's gone. ;)

Late night deals are always the worse (or when one is tired). I seem to indulge needlessly when I'm sleepy or miss things that I needed to add to my order resulting in multiple shipping charges. CAGWS (CheapAssGamingWhileSleepy) could be determental to your wallet.
 
[quote name='wishfulthinker828']According to DVDTalk, this coupon also works at Spun.com which doesn't charge sales tax.[/QUOTE]

For those going the spun route and are planning on getting an XBox 360, I found GR3 available for preorder:

GR3: Advanced Warfighter

Should be around $40.86 before tax & shipping.

Worked the other way around for me. I didn't get charged for tax on wherehouse.com, but I did get charged for tax on spun. I did buy all used stuff on wherehouse so that might be the reason why.
 
I got taxed both. So, being from Illinois, tax isn't a benefit either way over DDD, because we get taxed at both.....or I do, anyway. Got many used CD's for cheap. I had to cut about 5 off so I can live with myself in the morning.
 
[quote name='dafoomie']Its back up on Fatwallet, good luck everybody.[/QUOTE]

Wasn't me this time, I even deleted my post. Watch out though, they're rating it good this time...

I don't know if this is your situation, but if you have trade in credit at wherehouse.com you won't be charged tax on the credit portion. You should be charged tax on the shipping, though.

it's a little bit more than I wanted to spend, but those are great prices IMO, so it's worth it. hopefully they are as meticulous in accepting trade-ins as some of you guys have suggested. I'm pleasantly surprised the tax is a little lighter than regular, it's actually 8% up here.

any previous shoppers know what kind of shipping is 'standard'? USPS First Class? Media Mail?

As far as games, I saw Jet Grind Radio, Trickstyle and Tony Hawk 2 for Dreamcast for $2 or so before coupon and Dead or Alive, Final Fantasy 7 and Mega Man Legends for PS1 for $5 before coupon, but they were in limited quantities. Also, Kirby Tilt and Tumble and Mario Golf for Gameboy Color for $11 or so before coupon. Also, you might want to check out used CDs, they have some great prices on some harder to find stuff(in reference to media superstores like best buy and even FYE and such).

Stock seems to go in and out sporadically though, so you might have to have a bit of luck and patience to be able to get in on some of this stuff. When you add stuff to your cart it is taken away from their inventory(supposedly for 90 minutes max), so you might want to keep that in mind.
 
hey are there used games usually complete and in good condition? if so i believe my dreamcast will be sporting an erection
 
[quote name='russtophiles']Um, I just tried the code at spun on the gift certificate code page and it says Invalid Gift Certificate. Is this dead now?[/QUOTE]

I just tried it on a random item and it is working still. Happy shopping.
 
[quote name='Kuma']hey are there used games usually complete and in good condition? if so i believe my dreamcast will be sporting an erection[/QUOTE]

most dreamcast games ive ordered from wherehouse.com could almost pass for new. i have ordered one playstation game that was pretty messed up looking, but they gave me a full refund (including shipping), plus they payed return shipping.
nothing ive ordered from there has been missing a manual or box or anything, and most of it comes in great condition (even games in cardboard boxes, like n64 or gbc games).
 
I'm liking this deal, and I've been looking through the list of games on the site. The ones I'm very interested in getting are Indigo Prophecy and The Thing (used). The total for both after tax and savings are $41.30. I'm loving the price, and for those that have played The Thing, what are your thoughts on it?

BTW thanks for posting the deal. There's so much I'm interested in getting, but unfortunately I have to control my spendings for the time being, lol. But nothing is stopping me from getting Indigo, Unless if someone else is doing a better deal on the game...
 
i got 11 cds (7 used, 4 new) from spun for about $60 shipped. spun didnt charge me tax and their prices on the cds i bought were cheaper than at wherehouse.
 
[quote name='Awcrap'] I'm loving the price, and for those that have played The Thing, what are your thoughts on it?

.[/QUOTE]

The Thing isn't too bad. The graphics are pretty decent and the atmosphere is also good, but the sound is kinda average and none of the control pre-sets worked well for me(on xbox). There are also some sound/visual glitches here and there but nothing too horrible. I paid $5 for it but I definitely wouldn't pay more than $10.

I'm fairly positive I did not, as it takes actual FORCE to press my broken mouse button. Either way, I assume it will get resolved fairly quickly, and hopefully I will get my items and all will be well.
 
Keeps coming up as an invalid code for me... Kinda sucks because I actually got the ad with the coupon... Oh well.

Can you scan the ad? And, are you entering it into the correct field? And have you tried both wherehouse and spun?

EDIT: Its working fine for me... Can you scan the ad anyway? I'd like to see it.
 
[quote name='gwill']I only have 1 charge on my CC. Did you by chance double click the final purchase button?[/QUOTE]

They have yet to charge my cards. So we will see I will keep everyone updated though. It might not be a double charge one might have been a authorization charge and a final charge. my question is there two things on the CC statement online that say if its like that then you got double charged.
