No you're right. Had I not cancelled I would have gladly taken the two I ordered form there to resell a month from now but my experience with Newegg has been that if they put something on backorder it usually gets cancelled; and I didn't feel like have $160 held for more then a week.
Prices keep dropping on these. I have a feeling that there are more out there/people all had the same idea about flipping due to scarcity of the first two CEs.
These are probably the copies initially slated for people who cancelled their order and bought it elsewhere when Newegg sent them Madden 12 instead of their ME3 preorder. That's what happened to me.
While I'm happy for you that your game is shipping OP, this is certainly not a deal. Should either post this in the original thread, even if its in the graveyard, or in the deal discussion section.
