Boscovs video game sale

hertzy · Feb 27, 2005

I know not all of you have a Boscovs near you, but those who do should stop in. I went to the one in Pottsville, Pa and the one in Hazleton, Pa and both had some older games on sale. Here's the ones I remember:

Xbox
Shenmue 2 - 4.99
Quantum Redshift - 9.99
Max Payne - 9.99
Future Tactics - 9.99
NBA Inside Drive 2003 - 2.99

PS2
Virtua Fighter 4 - 2.99
Frequency - 2.99
Future Tactics - 2.99

Gamecube
Starfox Adventures - 9.99
Star Wars Rogue Leader III - 9.99
NFL 2k3 - 2.99

These are only the ones I remember so you might find more when you go.

I believe this was mentioned last week. I picked up Clock Tower 3 (PS2) for $2.99. I also saw Eternal Darkness for $4.99 and several old GC sports games for $2.99 (NBA Courtside 2002, NFL QB Club 2002).

Also, another thing to point out is not all Boscov's stores sell games. Only one of the three I've been to recently sells games.

My bad.

Thanks for the online prices. I was going to order the Darkened Skye/Outlaw Golf pack, but shipping is $8.95.

Josef · Feb 27, 2005

Yeah the shipping price is outrageous (probably the worst I've ever seen); however, they say it will stay the same no matter how many items you buy.

I was planning on picking up a few games but shipping definitely kills it.

YoshiFan1 · Feb 27, 2005

Just a warning for anyone that orders online, they have really messed up inventory controls. I ordered Clock Tower 3 , Frequency, and Outlaw Golf/Darkened Skye (2 copies of each game). The online status said Clock Tower 3 was cancelled. Then the next day it said I had no order history and was unable to track the order. They actually ship the items from the B&M stores rather than a website warehouse like EB or Best Buy. They actually did ship 1 Clock Tower but one of the packing slips said both were shipped and I got charged for both even though I only got 1. I e-mailed them about it Wednesday and they have yet to respond.

Good looking out YoshiFan1, I'll probably avoid them now

Thanks for the heads up. I was considering ordering from them but with the high shipping, plus your experience with them, I think I'll pass.

It's not all that bad

I got two out of my 7 orders. No problems so far. I have one order cancelled and 6 orders sent in 6 separate packages. They ship UPS with tracking.

I sent them email other day about my order status. They cancelled one, but the final price didn't chage. They replied:

Thank you for shopping at Boscov's online. We only charge you when we
ship
the merchandise out. If the item(s) did not ship they would not have
been
charged to your account. This would not reflect on the order page,
because
we do not have the capabilities of changing the physical page that you
see,
but according to the notes on your account at our Administration the
order
was cancelled no stock. If you check your bank statements you will see
that
the amount did not come out of your account. However if there is a
discrepancy please fax us a copy of your bank statement 610-929-7353,
so
that we can fix the matter immediately. If you have any further
questions
or concerns please contact us at 1-800-284-8155, 9am till 8pm EST
Monday
through Saturday.

Thank you

OH GOD Future Tactics I must go buy

jetlag16 · Feb 27, 2005

Whoo my Boscov sells games! I'm guessing they are marked somehow, or we have a list.

drone8888 · Feb 27, 2005

Here's what I just picked up:

Eternal Darkness -GC $5
Muppet's Party Cruise -GC $5
NFL 2K3 -GC $3
All-Star Baseball 2002 -GC $3
SX Superstar -GC $5
Outlaw Golf/Darkened Skye -GC $5
Frequency -PS2 $3
Future Tactics -PS2 -$3

I'm not sure why Future Tactics was lower than your store,... but I do have the receipt. Too bad I'm too lazy to scan it.

Also,... I wish someone would have mentioned that the 15% off coupon ended yesterday.
It would have brought my total down $9.

Thanks for the head's up though.

Thanks OP! Looks like I'm heading to Boscov's tomorrow (unless the snow stops me).
