Best Buy Gamer Club Questions - Blast From the Past

Well, today was a sad day - the final day of my Gamer Club discount.  I decided to go ahead and preorder about 10 games that I wanted that come out this year.  So, my question is this - has it been verified that when the games finally get released that I will get them at the 20% discounted price I preordered them at?  I know some people had their Gamer Club expire last year (I got lucky and re-upped mine right before it died) so wanted to check for verification.  Thanks in advance.

P.S. Best Buy put a pending charge on my card - it was a shock to my system.  I didn't think they charged until the preorder shipped.  Will it fall off?  Some of these games don't release until the 4th quarter so I don't want to loss that money for that long.

Since I saw the alert I guess I will help.
Pending charge will fall off after a while.
But they can random check to see if the card has funds and hold them.
Best to use a credit card and not a debit card.

Yes they keep the discount for the preorder. My last preorder is animal crossing.
If you cancel or change anything with the order you lose the chance of keeping the discount.
Good luck

Thank you for the info.

What's key is making sure your credit card doesn't expire before all the games come out. If the card expires you have to update the card info and you lose the discount. It's also smart to use a card that you don't use very often as I got my credit card info stolen a while back and lost a lot of GCU discounted pre orders.

I miss all the blast from the past

My GCU expired in November and I also made sure to preorder alot of games, here is hoping they all get fulfilled with the discount as well!

My Best Buy Visa expires in March but I noticed on the website that a new card is being sent out so hopefully it arrives before my GCU ends on March 20th I believe. I have other options but I'd like that extra 6% back in reward points.

I have GCU at least for another year so if someone needs a game with the discount just let me know [pm] 

YMMV, mine expired a few days ago and unfortunately no 25% discount code as others had in the past. Was able to get in a few orders my last day like OP though.

Mine just ended and I got the email with a link for the coupon, does it come with an expiration date or can I hold off until I want something?
