i order phantom brave on monday for 24.99, and i checked today and it is 19.99. the order already shipped, is there anyway except for cancelling the order that i can get it at this price?
The nearest eb next to me is 50 miles away so, i can't do a in store return.

I've heard of rare cases of calling EB customer service and asking for a refund of the difference on your credit card, and usually there was a short period of time allowed between the price drop and original order. Since it's been less than 5 days, I think you have a pretty good shot. It is a pretty reasonable request - the question is, do you want to go through the CSR hassles for a fiver and change?
 
I placed an order of 10 copies of Madden 2004 for $5.99 each and then the next day, I noticed that it dropped to $4.99. I emailed them and they refunded the differnce and gave them to me for $4.99 each.
 
[quote name='mcgavin27']maybe, i'll do it later today if i really need the five dollars..[/quote]

Maybe?!?!?!? Are you a cheapass or not? You could grab Rogue Ops for $5 shipped or something else from EB. $5 is a ton of video game money around here....

Just curious... Why did you buy 10 copies of Madden 2004???

Glad that someone didn't let that slip by unnoticed. :lol:
 
Well, if they don't, you could always order a copy for $19.99 and just return the $24.99 copy to a EB B&M for a refund. The store near you might be out of the way, but at least you'd get it cheaper(plus a chance to see what games that store has).
 
i'll see if i can get the 5 dollars, well actually i only paid 20, my dad paid the 5 dollars plus shipping, so really it is HIS 5 dollars...

i will still do it though.
 
Maybe they bought 10 copies of Madden 2004 to give out to friends as gifts, or to sell, or collect. I personally wouldn't buy 10 copies of an old sports game, but hey, different strokes for different folks.
 
[quote name='evilmax17']You can call and they'll adjust it no problem[/quote]
thanks you were the 1st person to give me a clear cut answer.
 
EB has very good customer service and they should adjust the price with no problem. I had a problem once, and they sent me an extra game, free of charge.
