Any deals on Final Fantasy XI: Chains of Promathia?

[Zomboi]

Sorry to post another request so soon (I try not to bug people too much), but my brother is a total FFXI addict and he caught me posting earlier. Anyway, he just wanted to know if there were any good prices or preorder deals on the latest FFXI expansion Chains of Promathia. Again, sorry for requesting so much, but thank you for any and all help you can provide.

I should have drawn the line a long time ago.

But now, I have gone so far to complete my collection of all things Final Fantasy (games), that I own a complete copy of FF1 for the MSX, and I even have the JPN FF:CC Gamecube console. (n.b.: contrary to the post, I do not mean "Final Fantasy: Circuit City")

With that in mind, I say this: clock, schmock.

Really, you're looking at NES vs. Master System here. There's not much of a difference, but for the obsessive-compulsive completist...

myke.
...shoud this topic be moved to another area, so people don't hate on me for not discussing the deals of CoP that haven't been found yet?

The set includes a pearl white GC, pearl white GBA Player, FF:CC game and Memory Card (51?), and a pearl white controller. It's gorgeous, and never leaving the box. They only manufactured 1000 of these consoles.

They also released a pearl white GBA SP with FFT Advance in Japan, but in much larger quantities.

With the new one coming out, I'd expect the first one to drop in price.
