When CC had it's big 50% off sale, it seemed as though the only games not included were those listed on CC's website. If the same trend holds true for this week's 20-30% off sale, then Disgaea should be $40 this week (or even $35), as it's no longer listed on the website. I'm only speculating, but I would encourage anyone who's already planning to stop by a CC to do a price check and confirm if Disgaea is indeed 20-30% off.

EDIT: Sorry, guys, but it seems as though Disgaea is still $50.

Would someone be willing to purchase this game for me? I don't care if it's 50 or 35. I just want a new copy and don't want to get it off eBay.

I will paypal asap if anyone has one that is unopened, sealed, plastic wrap still in tact.

I can't find it anywhere!
 
[quote name='Admiral Ackbar']If you're willing to pay any price just get it off amazon :p[/quote]

I hope you don't mean their so called "Marketplace" that thing gives me goosebumps. I have used it for books and movies, been charged, and never receieved a blasted thing. No way.

Surely someone on this board is trustworthy and willing to do legitimate sale.
 
[quote name='Admiral Ackbar']Shady Dealers? It's available at Toy's R Us.com through AMazon. It's in stock. Order direct.

Order Direct from Amazon[/quote]

Shipping (item does not qualify for free shipping) + tax = ~$60. I do have that open right now. I have mouse next to buy, but I was hoping someone here was willing to sell it for $50 + shipping or maybe if they got it for $40 + shipping. Yeah I know after I pay someone $50 + shipping it is like $54, but I save like $5. I am cheap ass, what can I say. But if no one can/will I will suck it up and pay the amazon price.
 
[quote name='doraemonkerpal']i'll check CC out tonight and let you know the price (as long as it's in stock of course) :D[/quote]

i just went to cc and they only had 1 left (after i bought one :)) and it was still full price :( oh well, i bought the sims and they gave me a $20 gc so it wasn't so bad.

btw, the store manager was basically calling me a crook b/c she couldn't find out how to do the $20 gc/sims thing in her computer. i was soooooooooo pissed, but bit back my pride so i could get the $20 gc. i was there for about an hour while she was calling other stores to verify this. i even showed her the ad and she said it was a misprint... if she were a guy, and i knew i could get away with it :evil: i woulda knocked her the fvck out.
 
Why not buy from http://www.buyritegames.com/ ? Where I bought mine...it's only $39.99 there. I've seen posts about people complaining about BuyRite before, not true. I have been ordering from them for many years and they have excellent service. More reliable than EBgames IMO. I actually received a non-working used game from them before (EBgames).
 
if she were a guy, he probably would have just given the thing to you. male employees tend to care less for the "rules" than female employees do. so you likely wouldn't have had to knock anyone out.

Thanks for confirming the price. I apologize for getting everyone's hopes up. :(
 
If anyone in the Cincinnati area is looking for Disgaea, they had about 7-8 copies of it at the Circuit City across from the Eastgate Mall on Saturday night. I had them scan one (it came up $49.99) if I didn't already have the game, I would have still gotten it at that price.
 
[quote name='ayolykewhoa']At buyritegames, how much is the shipping?[/quote]

stay away!!! pay more than retail!!! Do NOT Buy

shipping is like 7 dollars and I live in the same state, can't imagine what it would be to Boston
 
lain21us: I got it when it came out and I (sadly) paid full price but it was worth every penny. If you like FF Tactics, then you'll probably like this one as well. I've heard the publisher Atlus only made something like 40000 copies available (figured this game won't sell very well) to the US market so this is a relatively rare game hence the expensive price tag. I dunno if that's true or not but I've been on the gamefaqs bbs and they seem to confirm it as well. I'm waiting for the other games made by the Disgaea developer Nippon Ichi: La Pucelle (actually released before Disgaea *no relation however* everywhere except the Western market) and Phantom Brave (same reason).

La Pucelle is being published by some obscure company from the West Coast called Big Dog or Mad Dog or something like that

Phantom Brave is being released by Nippon Ichi's newly opened USA office
 
yea, I just made a post about if i should pay retail or not for this game, there are about 20 copies in my area still, i may hold out a lil bit.

You'll be kicking yourself, hard! if you do wait. Everyplace online is saying 1-2 days (which means they might not have it) or 1-2 weeks or backordered. I thought we had some in town. I ransacked all stores only to find nothing yesterday afternoon. If you can get a copy, damn! Your lucky (and I'm jealous). I am crossing my fingers that mine ships even though J&R says ships in 1-2 days.
 
BTW my TRU is selling a bunch of those ninja turtle shirts for 2.99 along with some other vg shirts. I would have picked one up, but they are too large for me.
 
I am trying to go today to Best Buy to pick one up. I have $15 in Best Buy Reward Zone Bucks (or whatever they are called) and will use the $5 off coupon, so, if they have it, I can get it for $30. But I doubt they have it. If not, I will just get it from Gamestop. (I saw they had it there) or EbWorld.
:whistle2:/ Funny, it seems to be available near me. If you are interested in a copy, let me know and I will see how many I can get.

Take Care,
Matthew
 
I think people should keep checking at CC. You'd think it would be lowered sometime soon, as the game has been out for quite a while. Last time I went to the local CC there were plenty of Disgaea copies there. If they cut it to $30 I'd buy it right away.

OTOH, I'm kind of thinking about getting a copy from Gamecrazy, as they have it priced $39.99 and I can get it for $35.99 as MVP member. I was there yesterday (stupid no Wario Ware until today!) and it looked to be in good shape. Should I go for it? I have the store credit...or should I get an EyeToy?? Hmm :?:

I doubt it's going to drop in price, unless it's just a local store. I'd be surprised to see a price drop on the title at this point, though stranger things have happened. this was released at the end of August last year, and not that many were made.

for all the times I've ever seen it, the cheapest I've seen it for is $45 used at EB Games. if you can pick it up for $35 and it's in good shape, do it ;)

I picked this one up a month ago at $50. I didn't want to wait for a price drop. I have a feeling if I don't get this game now, it will be hard to find later on.
 
I picked up my first copy for $30 new from EBgames.com with some coupon many eons ago. I traded it for a game that has been on my dream list for 10+ years and only available on fleabay :) Figured I could just get another copy, WRONG! I was.
 
i forgot to mention that they had a space channel 5 for dc, fear effect 2 and pokemon gold on clearance. they also had a game called "yanya caballista: city skater" for ps2. anybody ever heard of that? is it rare b/c i've never seen or heard of it before? it comes with this skateboard that you put over the controller... kinda weird.

I only placed one order from BuyRite ever, but I can say it went well. I bought Wachenroder for the Sega Saturn, only paid $30 when most other import stores were selling it for $50. The shipping was something like $6-7, though, which sucks.
 
ayolykewhoa: Since you live in Boston you can probably find one locally. Have you ever heard of Newbury Comics? They sell used games (no more than $35 from what I seen) and if a 'rare' game like Disgaea or Rez comes in, it could sit on there shelves for quite a while. I have seen a copy of Disgaea at their Downtown store at the beginning of the year but it's gone now.
 
If you're in desperate need of a new sealed one and don't want to pay a premium mediaplay.com or samgoody.com still have them on the site. I just ordered mine last Monday.
 
Well, I got it cheaper a long time ago when it was first released. EBgames had a coupon that worked only on certain games. Disgaea was one of them. I checked back that afternoon, Disgaea was gone. Luckily I ordered ASAP that morning and received my copy (33% off).

I would say $50 is cheap for this game, now! I have a friend who had spent over 77 hours playing it in the first week he owned it (I saw his save). He thinks it's the best game ever.

Good luck. It looks like eBay may be your only source soon.

BTW, my copy I ordered from J&R got shipped. So, I can say J&R still appears to have it.
 
ok, i didn't want to post this until i actually did it. last week (i dunno if it's still good) CC had a promotion for the sims deluxe edition for PC. if you bought it for $19.99, you got a $20 gift card. i bought 3 of them and also bought disgaea for $50. i figured that i could sell the sims games on ebay and try to recoup some of what i spent, therefore getting those gift cards, and ultimately disgaea, for a discount.

well, i put 2 of them up for auction and they already sold for 15 and 16 bucks! that means i got those 2 gift cards for a total of $9 (minus the tax, paypal fees, etc)! therefore, i have one more sims game to sell and seeing how these 2 auctions went, i'm assuming it'll go for around $15.

-60 bucks for the 3 sims games
+46 for selling them on ebay
-50 for disgaea
+60 for CC gc's
= disgaea for 4 bucks

of course, i'm not counting in the taxes, paypal fees, ebay fees, etc. all in all, i got disgaea for around 10 to 15 dollars :D

edit: oh yea, i did go through a lot of trouble for those gift cards though. it seems like the head office didn't notify the individual stores on how to ring up the "free" $20 gc's, and i had to go to customer service counter to get them.
 
$34.99 from Gamefly- if you are a member
$39.99 from Gamefly- if you are NOT a member
Gamefly guarantees the original box and manual. They only charge $1.99 shipping and handling. And, you should receive it in 5 days. I have been renting from them for over 6 months now and they are very reliable.
hope this helps.
 
I bought my new for 44.00 a few months back , have not even opened it yet. I guess I should give this one a go soon.
 
Any CC that I've been to has a few copies in stock, and judging from the vast amount of Rez's i've seen, I doubt they'll be sold. After a good long while, the knowledgable members of CC corporate will probably mark it down to 30. I'm going to stubbornly hold off.
