That Persona 3 is great and all but...

I fricken waited 3 extra weeks for that game (due to the artbook delay) and I'm not about to wait another 5-10 days of my summer vacation just to save ~$7.

Dammit... I just bought TotA from J&R for like $32.xx. I'm wondering if I should get Persona 3 form Family Video or Amazon. It's $9 cheaper at FV but I have credit at Amazon.

Speaking of which, Gamestop has yet to cancel my preorder for Persona 3 after 2 requests!

Great deal on P3, only $37.98 after the $5 coupon.

Thanks OP! Grabbed P3. I figure if I've waited a few months, I might as well wait another 5 or 6 days. $37.98 sure beats any of the other prices I've seen out there, especially with Amazon going back up to $49.99.

Thanks a lot, OP! Just canceled my pre-order at Amazon and ordered from here. Saved about $10!

eh, too lazy to cancel my amazon preorder of P3.
Nice find,though.

I'll keep this site in mind for future, I imagine amazon would be faster though.

How long does this "99 cent" shipping take?

and all Persona 3's come with a music cd and art book, right?

Yeah, every single P3 copy comes with the music and artbook (which was why Atlus delayed the game 3 weeks -_-).

This deal is good, but I rather pick it up as soon as possible, I've waited too long to play this game.

I'm snagging this deal and cancelling my amazon preorder, as soon as someone verifies how long 99 cent shipping takes. I'd imagine it'd be done by regular mail. yuck. im in no hurry though.

i ordered Mario Party 8 before. they shipped by USPS using bubble envelope. I think it took 5 days after game release date.

Thanks to my huge backlog, I won't be playing this game right away anyway so to me it doesn't matter how long it takes for the game to arrive, as long as I get it. Plus, I am a CAG so saving $10 takes priority over getting the game faster.

when I ordered Fable: the lost chapters and Halo a while back, the shipping was rediculously fast (to Hawaii), like within 5 days or something crazy like that. Much faster than Amazon and Gamestop, using their cheapest/free shipping. The only online store I've used that had cheap + fast shipping on this level was CDUniverse (and even then, it's 3-ish bucks, iirc).

shipping is FAST for $0.99, and well worth it, imo.

USPS 1st class 5 - 10 days per their website.

Others I have heard say that it comes much faster.

Thanks OP. Was gonna do GC at Buy.com for Pesona 3, but this is $2 cheaper! Score. Only bad thing is I have to go back to teaching on the 17th, so play time will be scarce. This happens every summer-until now it's been Nippon Ichi games that have always come out the day before vacation's over.

Rats. Oh, well, I already ordered this and the new Growlanser from Rosenqueen, don't see much point in cancelling it now.

Geez, I already ordered P3 when it was at the $46.xx price. >_< I sent them an email about adjusting the price down for me.

if you are not a new customer, NEWMEM3F is supposed to work. it at least get you $3 off.

Where do you find other coupons?
I'd like to know so I can use more in future, since I just used my new member coupon.

found it from CAG of course!

i used my new member one on P3, tried using NEWMEM3F (the return customer one) on Tales, but it said the coupon was invalid or expired.

im trying to find out why, maybe there is one coupon per day limit as someone mentioned on another FV thread.

YES. All copies come with those items because it's packaged in with the game. It's not an exclusive from Amazon or anything. Just like Ar tonelico and Magna Carta and the original Digital Devil Saga or the upcoming Wild Arms 5 and Growlanser: Heritage of War.

Damnit. Thanks for reminding me about Wild Arms 5 and Growlanser. Now I need to get 2 more games...

Well I decided that this is a good enough price for me to get in on. Throw on the $5 new user coupon and it was a good find. Thanks OP

Do they ship in boxes or padded envelopes? Persona 3 is a good deal but it ships in an envelope, chances are it will get crushed enroute.

Exactly what I was worried about.

I'm pretty sure they ship in envelopes... but I'm going to just take a risk.

I went ahead and order from them. It's basically a $13 savings which is good enough for me and I'm just hoping it doesn't come smashed to pieces.
