[quote name='BigJoshMan']Just called my local Game Crazy on Blackstone in Fresno, Ca and they still have it listed at regular price. Bogus.[/QUOTE]
[quote name='TheBomb69']My local stores are still selling them for $59.99. They say it most likely is the liquidated stores that are selling them for that price.[/QUOTE]
Did they actually ring it up? Most employees are clueless and will just read you the tag off the shelf if you call, the same tag that they last updated months ago. Lesson #1 for CAG's is to never trust what the in store employee says, have them actually ring it up. For a lot of these types of price drops I've had a lot of employees (in all retail stores) give me a stunned look when it rings up at the lower price, often after they have insisted that it's still the price listed on the tag. It takes a few days for price updates to cycle through most retail stores, unless they are really on top of things.
[quote name='The SPism']from what i've noticed in the past, some stores don't know about promotional prices themselves esp when they first pop up and items will still ring up the correct price ... this happened to me when starwars force unleashed dropped to 15
someone correct me if im wrong and the stores update their own prices individually[/QUOTE]
I had the same exact thing happen when I picked up the Force Unleashed for $15, they tag hadn't been updated yet, and the girl was stunned when it rang up for $15. And this was in a normal Hollywood Video, with just a mini "gamecrazy" kiosk inside, not a full game crazy store.
