Cheap and Old Collector's Editions

Fernando Rocker

CAGiversary!
I saw a thread talking about the new upcoming CE games, and obviously the prices are MRSP.

So, I created this thread to easily identify old and cheap CE games.

Yeah... I will try to keep the OP updated. Right now I'm work, but I will do it when I get home.

Maynard... maybe you could help me. I will send you a PM later.
 
[quote name='shadowkast']I picked up the steelbook of Perfect dark from best buy for $5. They've had tons of them for almost a year now in the yellow shrink wrap marked "used" but most of them are not.

Really I just needed to get the case for my ultra rare copy.

Totally YMMV but my store still has a few.[/QUOTE]

I don't know that I'd consider that all that ultra rare. I've got a "green disc" of BlazBlue Calamity Trigger. It doesn't even tell you what it is or who it belongs to. Just says Microsoft Confidential on it.
 
[quote name='randomdud']Shipping kills that. It's minimum 15$ shipping.[/QUOTE]
Didn't know the shipping would be so much from play asia

Now *that* I would take off your hands...
 
Hm. Have the standard edition of Cursed Mountain. If I can find other things I want from Amazon to put it to free shipping while this one's still available, I'd consider grabbing the LE at this price.
 
[quote name='xDerekRx']Im an old school Survival Horror fan so Im going to grab that Curse Mountain. Anyone have an opinion on the game?[/QUOTE]

It's a decent game that had so much potential, but ultimately ended up falling short.

I spent maybe about 8 hours to finish the game and by the end of it, I was a bit disappointed not only with the ending, but by how repetitive things got.

The game will provide a good amount of scares for about the first couple of hours, but after that, you kind of know what to expect.


Overall, a decent game that plays like a slower and lower budgeted version of Resident Evil 4.
 
[quote name='Invicta 61']Is there somewhere I can get a cheap Fallout 3 CE? One popped up at my local Meijer about a month ago and I didn't even check the price. :dunce:

Of course it's gone now and i wouldn't mind getting my hands on that bobble head.[/QUOTE]

A few months back gamestop clearanced them out. Unfortunatly the way they clearance them was to drop the CE price and sku to that of the regular copy of Fallout 3, 19.99.

This means you can't search online and you can't have them check other stores for it. Your best bet is to go to a gamestop that has been around a while and check it out. I've found one and a friend of mine found one 3 weeks ago.

Also the sticker might say a different price (mine said 39.99) but this is not the correct price. It will scan correctly.
 
[quote name='xilly']Pics or it didn't happen, right?

jKWlp.jpg
[/QUOTE]

So.. is the picture proof that you relinquish it willingly to me?
 
turns out there is a lurker here, i found a Peace Walker in stock 2 miles away but some guy called about it and they're gonna call that guy once they find it. dammit.
 
[quote name='georox']So.. is the picture proof that you relinquish it willingly to me?[/QUOTE]

Just proof that I do have it and it does exist. :p

I dunno about giving it up. It's kind of cool.

I also have an Epic Mickey paintbrush pen and logo pushpin thingy, and some Killzone 3 plastic army men and candy bars. :p
 
[quote name='The Punisher']What is that for? I never seen it. It came inside your xbox?[/QUOTE]

It's more like a test/review build of the game before the game is actually pressed for retail release. A friend of mine sent me it because he doesn't have an xbox and he came across it.

Well, if you ever consider parting with it let me know. :D

The other stuff, meh. I have tooooo much swag. Used to do the convention circuit, between that, knowing gamestop employees and the internet? Yea. I had a friend give me their entire preorder drawer once.
 
[quote name='bredbu']http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...7398640&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_500wt_997

alien vs predator steelbook ps3 with game 24 bucks

only 2 left

and 1 for xbox http://cgi.ebay.com/Aliens-Vs-Preda..._Games_Games&hash=item5d2d95b22d#ht_500wt_997

i ordered a ps3 one about a week ago came mint when i ordered mine shipping was free guess the guy wants some more cash :([/QUOTE]

Bingo, I'll save him and keep an eye on it. $3.99 doesn't bother me too much. The steelbook looks nice to me. I checked out some gameplay vids and it seems different.
 
[quote name='dohdough']stavros45 and shivan128 are right.

The BB has them on the floor by the games and not on the shelf and Target has them on the side of the Electronics section by the laptop accesories on a shelf if I remember correctly.

I was very surprised to see them tbh. That BB also has Bioshock 2 LE, but I forget how much they were.[/QUOTE]

I went to this BB (since it's 5 minutes from my house) to check how much they rang up. $150. The sign said $80.

Don't know what happened.
 
I bought one used from gohastings last week, I think the price after shipping and taxes was around $13. Its kinda a crapshoot ordering through them though, the slip cover was really torn up and it didnt come with the disk with the 4 episodes of the anime, however, the steelbook was in pretty good shape.

My girlfriend ordered a limited edition of gears of war 2 from them and it came in pristine condition. Its a bit of a gamble but they have alot of collectors editions for pretty cheap. I just bought the lost planet CE and the prey CE for $5 and $7 respectively. When they get in I will let you know what sort of shape they are in if anyone is interested.

hm...I will have to check this out...I just ordered a CE guide from them a few days ago...we'll see how that goes as well. I wonder how their return policy lines up.
 
Not really all that great of a deal but I saw a PS3 copy of the steelbook Star Wars The Force Unleashed 2 special edition at a local Target on their red tag clearance rack. It was 55 something though, still way too much for me to bite. I don't know if all Targets are clearing these out or if it was YMMV.

God dammit the closest one to me is like 70 miles away. Been looking for that forever. :bomb:

[quote name='sephiroth61787']I went to this BB (since it's 5 minutes from my house) to check how much they rang up. $150. The sign said $80.

Don't know what happened.[/QUOTE]
That's really weird. They must've changed the sign since Monday.
 
[quote name='confoosious']This thread is gonna make me poor.

Does anyone know of a good deal for DMC 4 CE for the Xbox?[/QUOTE]

its 29.99 @ all the walmarts near me
 
I picked up dmc 4 ce for 30 at walmart about two years ago. I wish it was the ps3 version on sale though.
 
I saw a couple of copies of Call of Duty Black Ops: Prestige Edition for PS3 at Target today for $104. That's not exactly what I'd call cheap (especially for a game and a remote control car), but hey, that means it's price dropping on down.

I've also found used copies of Halo 2 CE and Oblivion CE at Half Price Books on the cheap. Just because they're special editions doesn't mean people won't resell them. :D
 
[quote name='xilly']Just proof that I do have it and it does exist. :p

I dunno about giving it up. It's kind of cool.

I also have an Epic Mickey paintbrush pen and logo pushpin thingy, and some Killzone 3 plastic army men and candy bars. :p[/QUOTE]
I already saw the bag of the Killzone 3 army men. How did you get them.. media thing or what? And do you wanna get rid of them?

the codbo remote car eats up so many batteries.

How much was oblivion CE?
 
[quote name='tdc_raven']I bought one used from gohastings last week, I think the price after shipping and taxes was around $13. Its kinda a crapshoot ordering through them though, the slip cover was really torn up and it didnt come with the disk with the 4 episodes of the anime, however, the steelbook was in pretty good shape.

My girlfriend ordered a limited edition of gears of war 2 from them and it came in pristine condition. Its a bit of a gamble but they have alot of collectors editions for pretty cheap. I just bought the lost planet CE and the prey CE for $5 and $7 respectively. When they get in I will let you know what sort of shape they are in if anyone is interested.[/QUOTE]

I bought the Fable 3 LE from them a few months back for $30 and it came in perfect condition minus the DLC codes but I wasn't really expecting to get those anyways.

Sony packaged them with my KZ3 review copy. Limited edition according to the bag too. Mine is 422/500. I have no real use for them, but no real awareness of their value either. Shoot me a PM if you're interested, they're just sitting in the bag on my desk.
 
Wow, I want like none of these games. Yet I feel like buying them for the steelbooks...

If somebody pops up on a deal for the Prince of Persia with steelbook, please PM me.
 
I picked up the metal gear limited. 29.99 It is bigger than I thought. I think the my biggest psp one to date. The size usis due to the art book I had to call around and a gentle,man was kind enough to check his locatedr and called a store that had 1 in.

I know what you mean. I'm a sucker for steelbook cases

Hey, whoa, I've got interest in those as well if you've still got them. :)
 
Remember seeing a couple of alan wake CEs at a bestbuy near me a few days ago. Anyone know if they actually ring up at MSRP like the sign in front says or if they are on discount? I only ask since the game has been out for so long and wouldn't mind picking up it as a reasonable price.

The best buy that I just went to hoping to score a deal was $59.99 :bomb:
 
I like the idea of the thread, but sure would be nice if the OP took the time to summarize all of the deals that others have posted.
 
[quote name='shadowkast']I picked up the steelbook of Perfect dark from best buy for $5. They've had tons of them for almost a year now in the yellow shrink wrap marked "used" but most of them are not.

Really I just needed to get the case for my ultra rare copy.

Totally YMMV but my store still has a few.[/QUOTE]

Best Buy where I am has these as well.
 
Will gladly take over original post if need be because this thread is right up my alley. So we can have updated front page notes. In fact found Elder Scrolls IV - Oblivian CE at Wal-Mart for $15. Very YMMV, I'm sure but a good price none the less.

-cries-

I checked three of them today and not a single one had them.
 
I haven't seen this posted yet, BB dropped their Warcraft 3 Battle Chest to $19.99 from $39.99. It's still one drop away for my taste, but if someone is interested, I also saw it for that same price at GS yesterday.
