CAGiversary!
Some guy posted a trick on the Video Game Deals forum about taking advantage of the 25% deal.
1) Add the pre-order for D.C. Universe Collector's Edition, which retails for $99.99 but ships on Nov 2010 to your cart.
2) Add any other in-stock games that you want the discount to be applied to.
3) Add SAVER for free shipping as icing on the cake.
4) After your in-stock items ship, cancel the order for D.C. Universe.
Now normally, you cannot apply this code to preorders (obviously), but when I tried this out in the shopping cart, the code worked, and the 25% was taken off of the instock items.
But of course, I don't want to commit $99.99 to a game I don't want just to save money on some other games I actually want unless this really works.
My questions:
* First off, does this work?
*Are you able to cancel the pre-order without having to call customer service?
* When do you get charged, when the game ships or when you complete your order?
* If you DO cancel the $99.99 item, how do you receive the refund, does it take a long time to get charged back to your card or will I get some sort of Gamestop gift card?
Please let me know, thanks. Hopefully with this trick I can use it to save a bit of cash on some games I've been eyeing (3D Dot Game Heroes, I'm looking at you!)
