[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

First off, let me welcome you all to the new guide thread. Second, I'd like to ask you all to please keep conversations not pertaining to guide drops to a minimum to avoid cluttering the thread. It's not that I don't enjoy the chit chat, but that it may stop others from locating information on the newest drops.

That being said, let me thank Cheapy for creating this site, without which I would've spent probably 10 times what I HAVE spent on games and guides. Moreover, let me thank each and every one of my fellow CAGs for continuing to contribute to making this site a great place to find out about sales and clearances of the items we as gamers use most. Without a great community, NONE of this would be possible.

Now, with that out of the way(and before I get to rambling), let's get on to making this new thread.

What is the purpose of this thread?

The purpose of this thread is to let our fellow CAGs know when a guide has dropped to a low price(it's NOT ALWAYS A PENNY), so they can go out and grab guides for themselves and for trading with other CAGs.

Anytime you have guide drops to report, post them here. Please specify at which store you found them and which guides you found and list them in alphabetical order. Thank you.

If at all possible, when reporting guides that dropped please list them in RED. Thanks again.


What are penny guides?

Penny guides are guides which have been on the market for a while and the publisher(or store chain) decide that the remaining stock of these guides have little to no chance of selling, so they issue an order to pull them from the shelves and destroy them. At that time, they are also marked as .01 in their inventory system, except in the case of BBV, which marks them .01 only AFTER pulling them.

Most stores have an agreement with the publisher that states that if they destroy the remaining stock of those items, they will receive a credit for their value from the publisher. This is why many stores are usually annoyed when we CAGs come in and buy the guides AT the penny price, since otherwise they would've received a credit for those items.

According to an employee at a local BB, they also have a recycling program for the pennied stock, so as to not clutter landfill space with the guides. As to how true it is, I cannot confirm, but I would hope that the paper is at least recycled instead of just dumpstered.

Thanks to floormat, Guinaevere and anyone else who has created and maintained the guide thread before, as well as to all of those who find out either advance information on drops or provide a list of which ones dropped when we do have a drop.

The post below this one contains a list going back at LEAST six months of the more current guide drops, which stores they occured at and which ones dropped. Note that sometimes(Oblivion guide, Quake Wars: Enemy Territory)there are multiple versions of a guide, be it that there are Prima versions, Brady versions and the occasional Nintendo and Doublejump guides.

Please specify WHICH version has dropped when mentioning possible guide drops. Thank you.

Common Guide Drop Related Questions FAQ(created by GrilledWitOnions):

Spoiler

FAQ - If you are new (or a vet with a few questions) look here SECOND! (After reading the above!)

Q: What Are Penny Guides?
A: Penny guides are guides which have been on the market for a while and the publisher(or store chain) decide that the remaining stock of these guides have little to no chance of selling, so they issue an order to pull them from the shelves and destroy them. At that time, they are also marked as .01 in their inventory system, except in the case of BBV, which marks them .01 only AFTER pulling them.

Most stores have an agreement with the publisher that states that if they destroy the remaining stock of those items, they will receive a credit for their value from the publisher. This is why many stores are usually annoyed when we CAGs come in and buy the guides AT the penny price, since otherwise they would've received a full credit for those items.

According to an employee at a local BB, they also have a recycling program for the pennied stock, so as to not clutter landfill space with the guides. As to how true it is, I cannot confirm, but I would hope that the paper is at least recycled instead of just dumpstered.

Q: Do all guides from all stores drop at the same time?
A: No. While most chains have nationwide drops within their own store (as in every BB will have the same drops coast to coast), not every different chain drops at the same time (what drops at BB is NOT necessarily dropped at GS). When in doubt, check post TWO for drop info.

Q: I found a penny guide and a clerk denied me! I'ma report 'em!
A: Whoa, hold your horses there, pardner! First of all, not a question. Second, just because something is on the shelf, the clerk does NOT have to sell you that item. Most stores are PRIVATE property and as such can deny you just about anything they want - including a sale. The best advice is to not be rude, not be arrogant, and just try hard to get them to have pity on you.

Q: Why don't the clerks want to sell me their penny guides? Aren't they just throwing them away?
A: As stated above, the stores are ordered by the publisher to trash the guides, and are then given credit for those guides. If they don't do this, the publisher won't give them the credit - it's like losing a sale. On the employee level, selling a penny guide can sometimes get them in trouble (or even fired!) I know it seems silly, but this is their job we're talking about! Respect the man (or woman) behind the counter and you'll get a lot more guides than otherwise!

To expand on this, if you come off as DEMANDING, then you'll likely be barred from the store and possibly banned from ALL of their stores entirely. Moreover, you may be charged with trespassing if you continue to press this, as retail stores are PRIVATE PROPERTY.

The penny price is NOT an actual price that the stores HAVE to sell the merchandise for, it is a 'marker' in their system to the employees to pull/destroy those items. The fact that we as CAG's get ANY of these means that employees are not doing their jobs correctly and we are very lucky to even get them in the first place.

So don't press your luck and ruin it for everyone by being an asshole to a manager/cashier who just wants to keep their job by doing what they're supposed to.

Q: Should I just ask if the store has penny guides then?
A: No, since that denotes that you have some insider information as to the runnings of these businesses.

Q: What if the clerk wants to know how I know so much about guide drops?
A: If asked where you got your info about guides that pennied, simply say either 'the internet' or 'a friend of mine told me they're on clearance'.

Q: But clerks will know what a penny guide is, right? I can talk to them like anyone else here...
A: Never use the word pennied to ANY store clerks unless you have built up a good rapport with them. Even then, it may seem a little fishy if you know more about their shop than they do.

Q: Are guides labeled as a penny on the shelf?
A: Sometimes. Most times, no. GS seems to label everything that gets a price drop, so often times guides will be stickered. But even so, they most likely won't sell them to you. A sticker does not mean 'have to sell'.

Q: I tried to buy a guide that this thread said was pennied and it didn't ring up as such! What gives?
A: Either 1) Our source was wrong (this rarely happens and is usually verified a FEW times within maybe an hour of posting), or 2) The clerk changed the price or 3) There are multiple versions of the guide and the one you grabbed is a newer version that has NOT pennied as of yet. Some examples of this are: The Godfather and Oblivion.

Q: What's the easiest way to get penny guides? This sounds like TONS of work!
A: Best Buy is probably the best place to get guides, followed by GameStop, GameCrazy, Toys R Us and then Blockbuster. From what I've seen though, probably 95% of guides that people get are snagged at BB - the rest come from the other stores. But it never hurts to try!

Q: Has there been a drop recently?
A: If you are asking this question you didn't fully understand the OP - go back and read it once more. When a drop happens, it will be posted, and then placed in the second post - trust us.

Q: How do you guys know so much about penny guides?
A: We sometimes have inside sources with the information from the stores themselves; other times, fellow CAGS just like you or me simply take suspected guides to the register and ask them to ring them up, to check their prices. Feel free to do this yourself, and help give back to the community by telling us what you find! However, DON'T ask "Has anyone checked XXX lately?", unless you are in the right thread (discussion area).

Best Buy Stock Locator FAQ to find stock for deleted SKU's(works for games and guides):

Spoiler

Here's a good little trick that some of you may already know. If you want to find out if your local Best Buy has stock of an item, but the page(and SKU) for it has been deleted you can STILL find/create a stock locator page for it.

Here's how to do it:

Google the item you're looking for the SKU for. Once you find it, take that SKU and copy/paste it into the URL for another item's stock locator page on BestBuy.com after where it says skuID=(example: blahblahblahblahskuID=2085453), then hit enter to reload the page with the new SKU in place of the old one and search away.

Unfortunately no such method exists for Gamestop at this time.

Since the guides and items that drop at various stores often have their pages deleted before they drop I figured it'd be a good idea if we had a SKU list for the guides/items that dropped. On the Best Buy price stickers this is usually found underneath the price.

Best Buy Stock Locator FAQ(to find stock for deleted SKU's):

Spoiler

Here's a good little trick that some of you may already know. If you want to find out if your local Best Buy has stock of an item, but the page(and SKU) for it has been deleted you can STILL find/create a stock locator page for it.

Here's how to do it:

Google the item you're looking for the SKU for at Best Buy. You can do this by using search terms such as the item you're looking for and the words Best Buy. Such a search may only bring up a review.bestbuy.com page, though the SKU should be on that page off to the right.

Once you find the SKU, bring up the stock locator page for another item on BestBuy.com, then edit the URL where it says skuID= and cut/paste the SKU of the item you're looking for in the spot after the equal sign after skuID. Then hit enter and enter your zip code to find stock for the deleted item.

Unfortunately no such method exists for Gamestop at this time.

Gamestop stock locator link FAQ-NO LONGER WORKS(thanks to Vigilante for the link):

Spoiler

Use the link below, click on it and then copy and paste it into the address bar on a new browser window but DON'T HIT ENTER!!!

Swap out the SKU from the link below with one of the ones above in this post, THEN HIT ENTER. It should take you to a stock locator page for the guide you're looking for stock of.

Here's the link(thanks again Vigilante): http://www.gamestop....bgsg5bv5.klusTA

It's been said in the title already, but READ THE OP folks.

If you don't read the OP, then don't blame us if you can't get in on this deal or try to get guides from a store they didn't drop at yet for a penny.

With that said, welcome to the new thread and try to keep the clutter to a minimum this time.

Edited by IAmTheCheapestGamer, 14 February 2011 - 05:39 PM.

[ackbar7]

Didn't we just get a new thread?

[daminion]

Old thread was locked due to OT...

[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

Didn't we just get a new thread?

Yes. I just rebooted it on New Years.

Old thread was locked due to OT...

But EVERY deal thread goes OT, so I still don't see the reason why the last guide thread was just nuked for that when the Sears/Kmart/TRU/Target threads get OT all the time.

[Anti Lifesaver]

ahhhh. smells like sex on a beach with lavender oil

[neocisco]

Learn the lesson, cut the OT chatter and post only if it's directly relevant to guide drops.

[slowdive21]

This could be a bad day to change threads if there is a Monday drop and no one can find the new thread. Maybe a mod can put a link in the last post of the old thread to the new one.

[ragingst0rm6]

Please keep non-drop chatter to a MINIMUM! Thread 12 was closed because too many people were posting OT.

I vote for a mod warning for the first OT post for a user, then temp-banning. And yes, noob questions like "what are penny guides and how do I get them?" would be considered OT. EDIT: that's pretty much all I consider to be OT, other than posts like "tagged"

By this logic then half or more of the posts in other deal threads should be deleted and even both of your posts(and this one) should be deleted because they're ALL off topic. Just saying....

[htown01]

IATCG, just a suggestion, you should just lock this thread, update it when drops occur and use the discussion thread to discuss and go OT as much as we all want. If we're subscribed to this thread, wouldn't we get an update if you updated a post in here?

If not, then just ignore me if I had asked,"Did AC:Brotherhood CE dropped at Best Buy too?"

[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

Only problem is, I don't think I have the proper permissions to unlock a thread after I've locked it on my own. Otherwise I'd do that after posting in the last post for people to use the discussion thread.

[ragingst0rm6]

By this logic then half or more of the posts in other deal threads should be deleted and even both of your posts(and this one) should be deleted because they're ALL off topic. Just saying....

I'm just proposing we establish what exactly is defined to be OT in order to avoid getting closed down again. And that we establish actual consequences to going OT.

That's just my two cents, and now I'll stay quiet about this topic

[daminion]

Yes. I just rebooted it on New Years.

But EVERY deal thread goes OT, so I still don't see the reason why the last guide thread was just nuked for that when the Sears/Kmart/TRU/Target threads get OT all the time.

I agree, seemed a little heavy handed to me. The Kmart thread is basically the OT board in disguise.

[shrike4242]

Since there's no drop on-going, how about we let the conversation die down until we have something?

Regardless, there's a discussion thread that is the place to discuss other items related to guides that aren't drop-related.

I agree. This sounds like a good plan.

Edit: Oh crap, I just bumped the darn thread.

nipples are hard.

[sdclippers]

Wow a new thread.

[BmBoWnZ]

Best Buy drop tomorrow. More details later.

Fingers crossed for Borderlands GOTY

[radioactivez0r]

Federal holiday, competition could be fierce! I want some of the CEs I couldn't get from GS.

[Ultragamer]

All the guides are still on the website right now(Nothing has disappeared), meaning there must be a pre-pull notice. Hope I can manage to beat my Bestbuy at least.

[xDerekRx]

Best Buy drop tomorrow. More details later.

My palms are sweating now

[loxthefox]

For a little preview, the LE's of Final Fantasy XIII, Dead Rising 2, Mario Galaxy 2, and Medal Of Honor are on the list.

I'll post it once things slow down here.
