[quote name='Scorch']So you think that there's going to be a sudden demand for this three month old game (which is almost ancient in terms of game release dates, especially when there's no online mode)? The average price of a new one on eBay fetches between $36-$40. If it's Best Buy's DOTD, and the market is suddenly flooded with copies, you don't think the value is going to go down?

I'm a big picture type of guy, but A.) Buying a game to resell when the margins are razor thin at best ($20 + $2-ish tax + eBay/Amazon fees + gas to get to the store (or nothing if you're having it shipped, which would be stupid if you wanted to turn around and sell it since game values can drop overnight) is stupid, and B.) The future overly saturated market will drive down what little demand there was in the first place.[/QUOTE]

If you don't think resellers would be happy to find a game they can easily dump for $5 to $10 profit (and that is being conservative) after fees then you are underestimating the game. Whereas people go apeshit on being able to trade in a game for a $5 profit---they are ultimately limited to a maximum of three trades whereas resellers can pick up 10+ copies.
 
Got my email confirming my order, one thing I noticed tho, usually says "confirming inventory at store #781221" etc yet this time says "item will be shipped to store , estimated pickup date 6/12/12"

Hrm
 
[quote name='slowdive21']still 59.99 in cart[/QUOTE]

Using Firefox, I had the same thing as most of you guys:19.99 on the best buy search, then 59.99 in my cart. Tried multiple times on Safari and phone-no luck. Then tried something different:eek:n the search that shows it as 19.99, I clicked the check store availability link. From there, I put it in cart using my selected store and lo and behold, was 19.99 in cart. Guess they still have to fix the shipped option...

yeah I got the same thing, I usually get my pickup emails at about 830 AM. So I guess I'll just be waiting until then...hopefully its ready usual time so I can get it and my resident evil ORC in one trip to go along with some trades im doing.

The free shipping was from when the price was originally $49.99 for the controller. Those that bought the controller right when it dropped to $9.99, got the free shipping before Best Buy removed it.

My advice to those who want free shipping on the DOTD is to just stay up late and wait for it to go live. If you wait your not going to get free shipping unless the DOTD is something over $25. :cool:[/QUOTE]
Re-post to remind those who plan on getting it shipped to home, to buy it soon before Best Buy removes the Free Shipping.
 
Ok finally got an order through for shipping and it shows in my order status as 0.00 and says my CC wont be charged and such...something is all jacked up.
 
[quote name='technicalstylez']dang even private browsing in ff did nothing. gonna try again after my shower. hope it works out for u guys[/QUOTE]

If you're still on, its working at this time for me on FF. Best of luck
 
just want to say this is fuckin bs, took half an hr to get the price to show $19.99, LOL what a joke the bb website. i try chrome, ie, and firefox many times
 
It's showing $19.99 for both for me now, but 360 is already not available for shipping. Not only that but the PS3 version can't be ordered for store pickup at my closest store, even though the stock locator thing says it's in stock for pickup.:roll:

fuck it. I'll just go in later today and try and pick up a copy while there. Even though I'm RZ Silver, I don't wanna use my cc on this. I'll probably burn off my leftover credit and pay cash for the rest.
 
It should be working for everyone now. I just placed my order and confirmed it works on my other computer. (If there is stock or not is a different story).
 
Seems to be working now. Showed up at 19.99 in cart and checked out as such without any tinkering. Got me one for the PS3
 
that devil customer crap almost made me stop buying there, then thought, why thats just what they want me to do, I decided to just devil it up more and only buy deals there...ha....winning!!!
 
lol I re-ordered for a third time after canceling one order (no option to cancel the second and now the third orders), and now in my order status it shows two orders in process, one for $21.24 and another order shows $21.64. If I click on the order numbers for either of them though it shows $0.00 and says a credit card is not required for this order blah blah blah even though that was my payment method.

I'm done trying to get this.
 
[quote name='technicalstylez']lol y would u cancel/order it 3x?[/QUOTE]
order #1 I cancelled successfully because it hadnt been letting me do shipping, so I had done store pickup. It then suddenly let me choose to ship, so I ordered a second time to get it shipped instead. So far so good except then I go to check my order status and it showed my first order cancelled (a good thing) but my second order showed $0.00 and gave no options or anything. So I figure hmm well something glitched there I'll just place a third order and everything will surely turn out right this time!

Wrong. Same thing happened again (shows $0.00 on my order total page). So whatever. I have 2 orders now "In process" that I guess I'm just not going to get charged for. The bad thing is they probably also wont ever ship. Or maybe I'll end up with 2 copies and I'll just return one. We'll see.
 
Weirdly they allowed me to check out even though my BB doesn't have any PS3 in stock.
Maybe I'll call CS tomorrow and they'll put me through for free shipping? or at least the ability to have it shipped to store so I can pick it up later.

One can hope?

Anyways, I did two orders of 360 because my BB has those in stock and possibly see if any are willing to swap their PS3 for a 360.

I wanted to try SH on both consoles to see which was better.
 
thats the ghost of siren telling u that u made the wrong purchase. i told u that game was fucked up. yet u still want to play it...

Wow that's like some Eternal Darkness or Psycho Mantis type mind fuck on a whole new level. I must get that game.
 
my store said 'ship to store' 10 min ago and now says available. not sure i wanna cancel my shipping order and do instore pick up. didnt expect 360 to go oos so quickly (for shipping).
 
I wonder if there is a glitch with their system since on the one hand it shows me that 3 of my local stores have the 360 for store pick up when you actually go to search for stock none of my local stores have it. As of this morning all 7 of the stores within an hour had it and now none do? That seems weird.
 
i totally zoned out for an hour and thought i missed this. glad i played mw3 until all the confusion was fixed. got a ps3 copy. for 20 i can't complain. ;)
 
[quote name='Namerson']does bestbuy price match if you previously bought a game at their store but the discount is somewhere else? (kinda off topic)[/QUOTE]

Yes, same PM rules apply.
Store must be local and must be in stock for them to price match.

Although some of the CS workers can be lazy and just price match it without checking. :lol:
 
Sometimes the BB in-store stock locator is glitchy. It'll even show mobile-only stores with stock of games when they don't even sell those items. I'd hold onto whatever your original purchase placement was so you don't risk cancelling and then not being able to reorder through the method you want...
 
[quote name='sunghost']Apparently the PS3 version doesn't have surround sound.. not sure if a patch fixed it?[/QUOTE]

Thanks for posting this. I cancelled my ps3 order and got a xbox copy.
 
[quote name='MIX_MASTER_ICE']I'm close to buying this. Can anybody talk me off the ledge? It will probably just go in my unopened backlog if I get it.[/QUOTE]

Silent Hill will give you AIDS.
 
[quote name='MIX_MASTER_ICE']I'm close to buying this. Can anybody talk me off the ledge? It will probably just go in my unopened backlog if I get it.[/QUOTE]
Not to talk you back onto the ledge, but if something is just gonna sit in your backlog I don't think you should pay $20 for it. The game is just going to get cheaper; if you're not gonna play it, you might as well wait until the price drops another $5-$10.
 
I just got back from my local best buy. I used the sale to transfer my $30 reward zone certificate to a trade in card. Bought 2 copies of downpour (for ps3 and xbox). Traded in the xbox copy for $21 am keeping the ps3 copy to play.

Oddly, it didn't ring up $20 each in store. They needed to price match the website.
