Sorry if this is a repost/old news, but I just picked it up last night (while I was buying Hitman HD Collection) for this price since the cheapest I found it new on Ebay (meaning with codes unredeemed) was $75 + shipping. With the 100% trade-in credit (+10% for GCU), it might be a good day to buy the LE and trade-in your standard especially since the TIV is dropping like a rock.
Mine was also in a spacious sealed container thing (aka not spider-wrap), so it wasn't messed up or anything, nor was there a special clearance sticker anywhere so I think this is a standard price drop across the board.
Worth it if you don't have the Map Pass (included, $25 separately) and are a sucker for steelbooks/LE goodies like I am. And unlike the Reach LE/CE, it actually seems pretty limited so I don't see the price dipping much lower anytime soon.
Here's what it comes with for those who don't already know:
