MGS4 went down $10, eh?

Interesting, interesting...

Seems like Amazon and Newegg both have it for $46.99! Still no change from Best Buy.

Blockbuster Video has MGS4 new for $39.99.
 
[quote name='Ice2Dragon']Carbon goes to 19.99 two years later lol[/QUOTE]


Forget that. Fight Night 3 finally goes don to $19.99 after 3. It's a good game though and EA definitely needs to make a 4th round on that but for some reason they though Facebreaker would be a better option...
 
Hey folks, I just discovered that Circuit City's used game section has slashed its prices. Yes, they were all hilariously overpriced to begin with, but the new prices are 50-60% off. Now, what's really interesting is that many of these "used" games are actually brand new ones that for some idiotic reason they decided to relabel as pre-owned. You can tell by the neat cellophane shrinkwrap and/or the original new price tag and/or company security strip still being attached. Of course, it's harder to tell with DS games, or PS2 games that don't use the Sony security strip any more. I grabbed an open used Suikoden V for $9.99, and a new & sealed "used" TR Legend for 360 for $12.99. Lots of other nice deals, too.

BTW this is in Richmond, Va, hopefully it's nationwide. I assume it would be, since Ciruit City's used game idea was an obvious huge, embarrasing failure from the start.

CC never moved beyond the test market phase on used games. Maybe 20-30 stores at the most had them, primarily on the east coast. They were priced almost exactly like Gamestop which doesn't offer any appeal, IMO.
 
[quote name='xxtheycallmedxx']damn when was the last time we had a CC clearance list? feels like many months ago...[/QUOTE]

I've been thinking the same thing... I'd think this would be good time to get rid of old stock to make room for all the new games.

[quote name='fart_bubble']they started with the used games at my local CC a couple of weeks ago. The prices on them sucks though[/QUOTE]

Yeah, serious. I remember mine had a lot of used games above the price of most of their new games.

What state are you in? My store got the signage but we never received any inventory.

Wisconsin. Its the Racine store

Didn't know that. Every CC store in Richmond does used games, but maybe only because this is the home of corporate HQ? Sorry for getting hopes up...
 
Both of my local stores(Scranton and Wilkes-Barre in Pennsylvania) have/had a small section or rack with used games.

What I found funny was that one week the price on Assassin's Creed for PS3 used was the price it should've been since the game went GH($24.99, which is $5 off new retail MSRP, aka Gamestop pricing).

But when I went back and I was going to buy a copy, they had suddenly and inexplicably repriced every copy of it to $54.99.
 
Thank always for the list, neocisco.

I think they're pretty much PS3 and 360 games, nothing more than that.

[quote name='fart_bubble']they started with the used games at my local CC a couple of weeks ago. The prices on them sucks though[/quote]Agreed there. I can do better at GS, with or without coupons.
 
[quote name='Vinny']Yeah, serious. I remember mine had a lot of used games above the price of most of their new games.[/quote]

Maybe the Gamestop model is a raging success after all? I mean, who wouldn't want to buy Sneak King used for $10?
 
[quote name='neocisco']What state are you in? My store got the signage but we never received any inventory.[/quote]

The Fenton, MO store has had them since the summer. Funny in some cases the used copy was more expensive than the new copy.
 
Keep in mind that CC is closing 155 stores.

The word according to their press release is that the store won't open on 11/4, then the closing sales begin on 11/5.

Even though store closing sales aren't "markdowns", liquidated product is always great!
 
The stores are supposed to begin liquidating here in KC on Wednesday the 5th as well. I am looking forward to some sweet deals!
 
FYI, here's the official list of the stores that are closing. I apologize for the rough copy and paste job.

interesting, so how's the liquidation work at CC? Similar to CompUSA? Any time lines on when these stores are supposed to be closed by?
 
Does anyone know if Circuit City ever officially marked down the Halo 3 Legendary Edition? I saw it's no longer on their website, and I know my store has one tagged at $129.99. Just curious if it's clearanced out or not (since they're terrible at keeping prices up to date).
 
[quote name='VidgamesgivemeA_D_D']Soon there'll be a CC markdowns list that will just say "everything"[/quote]

lol

Anyone know if they're marking things down substantially yet? I'm going to hit up the CC by my work during lunch... if no one has mentioned anything yet, I'll post if they have anything worth grabbing.

Mine (Lake Grove, NY) was just 10% on games so far but it looks like others were reporting 20% in some stores already.

$69.99
 
Heard from someone in AZ... it's 5% on almost everything video games related, and 10% everything else...

I think that's called a SALE... not a OMG CLEARENCE

Around these parts, that doesn't even qualify as a sale.
 
[quote name='guessed']Around these parts, that doesn't even qualify as a sale.[/QUOTE]

They're doing one of those progressive liquidations over 6-8 weeks or so. Every week the amount will go up until everything is gone or they can sell it cheaper to an industrial liquidator. I have never once gotten anything good for one of these sales because the employees or their friends tend to scoop up the bargains by putting stuff aside or they end up selling all the good stuff to a liquidator for more than I would pay.
 
10% off games/accessories at my local one, 20% off DVDs and CDs. Meh. If you had your eyes on any clearance stuff already, though, now's the time.
 
[quote name='Ice2Dragon']Blitz the League 2 was also marked down this week to 39.99 for 360/pS3..[/quote]

I thought that was MSRP? I believe its that way everywhere now and the $60 price was mistake.

Needless to say I will be waiting for a massive clearance to go by the store that is closing near me.
