Ebgames has it in store for 19.99 (Or say 20)

CC and BB both have it in their systems for 49.99 or say 50.

So go over to CC first and get the game pm against Ebgames it would be 50 bucks - 20 so that is 30 bucks x .10 = 3 bucks off 20 so new game 17

now that that recept to Best buy and price match it once again

Best buy 50 bucks - 17 bucks = 33 bucks x 10% = 3.30 - 17

total 13.70 then just take the CC game back to CC and get refund

so you end up with paper maro 2 sealed for 13.70... Wouldnt be bad here in fort wayne cause there is a Ebgames, CC and Best buy all within 2 miles of each other.
 
I'm fairly certain you can't pricematch a pricematch. $17 is not CC's competing price... if you consider a competing price, then BB has the same competing price. But who knows if you're just using receipts.

I think if you tried that you would get stuck in a loop and be trapped in time forever...

Maybe, but wouldn't a $2 Paper Mario be worth it?

:shock: Now I'm scared..
 
That wouldn't make sense. Because if pricematching a pricematch was allowed, you could then take it BACK to Best Buy and be like "Seeeeeee!! Circuit City lowered it.. Psssh!"...and then take it back to CC..etc etc..lol and I know companies do make some dumb mistakes, but I highly doubt they will do this.
 
But don't they show it on the receipt as having a price change? And wouldn't the competition notice that on the receipt?

i did this one time we had a Best buy and i cant remember the other place. this was back in like 88 or 89 and both the stores was in walking distance about a block apart. They had this VCR for like 200 bucks. and they both had beat the best price by 10%. I walked over to the first store

Store 1: 10% knocked it down to 190
went to store 2 told them they would give it to me for 190
STore 2: 10% off knocks it down to 171
went back to store 1 told them they would do it for 171
Store 1 Knocked another 10% off =153.90
went back to store 2 told them they would do it for around 154

and this is where it ended cause they said that would be under what they paid. again this was like 16-17 years ago and was shocked they would allow someone to just walk back and forth. so in the end i got a 200 buck VCR for 154 bucks


i got a Gameboy video that i price match at Cc and it just says the name of the video for 3.50 Dont say price match or anything

You would make a trip to Best Buy AND an EXTRA trip to Circuit City just to save $3.30? Just take it for $17 and go home.
