Is it just me or are Xbox 360s everywhere in the Tampa Bay Area now? I went to a couple ebs/gs today and they had both premiums and cores at each. Looks like the drought is over (at least in terms of systems).

Saint Petersburg Best Buy still has tons of Quake 4 360, Condemned, 50 Cent: Bulletproof, and 1 or 2 Call of Duty 2: Big Red One's available... all are marked at one cent, on the shelf.

Still looking for Call of Duty 2 PC and Pokemon XD.

I live in St. Pete and I'm interested in a couple of your new guides: CoD: Big Red One and Quake 4. I have a few guides to trade, but would you take a few bucks instead? I can meet you any time on Wednesday. Tried to PM you, but your box is full.

I'm actually kind of busy the next few days, and unfortunately the extra Big Red One is already taken. I'm gonna hit a few more stores this afternoon, can let you know if I find anything.

Best Buy EASILY has 10 + copies of Quake 4, all tagged as a penny, no one seems to care... I got all my guides at around 6 pm last night, people were standing right in front of the guides looking at them but not even taking them. I mean, if you don't get down to BB, yea, I can throw you one, but they are overstocked on these and it should be real easy to get one.

The Sam Goody in University Mall and the International Plaza is up to 70% off now. There weren't any games left at the university, just a few umd movies and xbox accessories.

The international plaza one had a couple copies of ?Geist?? left and a few umd movies. They also had some accessories, xbox cables, gba wireless adapter, all 70% off.

Cleaned out the Port Richey store on guides... got every single one from the drops, including Pokemon XD.

Also snagged Age of Empires 3 Collectors Edition for $19.99 at the Best Buy there.

Sam Goody in Port Richey is pretty much empty... just got the Baten Kaitos guide for $2.99, and Seinfeld Season 5 for $14.99.

You didn't miss much at either Sam Goody closing down. By the time the percentage off was enough to make it a deal, most of the good games, movies, & CDs were long gone. Their prices were so high they needed to reach 60% to 70% off to make it less than most major retailers.

The Countryside Suncoast is completely gone already. It's now a Frederick's of Hollywood. They were having a grand opening sale. My girlfriend was really happy about that, and considering how bad Suncoast was, so am I.

Yea, just got back from Sam Goody, not much stuff left. They did have some stuff i wanted, but even at $9 a dvd that was more than what i can get em for online. I debated getting the House of the Dead UMD for $6 but i passed as i already have it converted to mp4 format.

Stopped off at the Carrollwood Gamestop, they had people from all the other stores in there fixing up the place, it looks alot nicer. Picked up Family Guy Seasons 1 & 2 UMD for $22.49 and Beavis & Butthead: Mike Judge Collection (24 eps) for $8.99.

Suncoast is having a buy 1 get 1 50% off on all their action figures if anyone's interested.

I also picked up Seinfeld. I was kinda mad though, they had put aside 2 of the puffy shirt combos for somebody and wouldn't sell them, they were only $25. At least it was a good deal for season 5

The St. Pete Best Buy still has a pretty good selection of $5 games (after $5 off RZ coupon). Still in store are:

Taito Legends (X)
Tecmo Classic Arcade (X)
Spy vs. Spy (X)
High Rollers Casino (X)
Army Men RTS (GC)
Killer 7 (GC)
EyeToy Operation Spy (PS2)
Genji: Dawn of the Samurai (PS2)
The Bible Game (X) & (PS2)

That store is very anal about their own coupons though. They always give me a hard time even with legitimate coupons. I've never had any problems at the Tampa Best Buy, so I think it's just the management or untrained employees at that St. Pete store that's problematic.

Thanks Roufuss, I was thinking about heading up there if there was anything but with gas prices continuing to skyrocket it helps to know that if there was anything worth making the trip to pretty much anywhere at this point.

Also have a Gamecube and Dreamcast.....not interested in 360 or PSP. Too expensive for too little entertainment value in my book.

Riveria is pretty easy to spot at Gamestop and Ebgames. I've seen a number of used/complete copies for $25.

Riviera is only $19.99 at Gamestop... or should be, unless they raised the price, since that's how much I paid for mine awhile ago.

According to the locator, both stores (EB / GS) at the Largo Mall have it, as well as the EB on Dale Mabry off 275 next to Best Buy.

Finally went up to the Citrus Park Rhino Games the other day and picked up some good $1.99 guides: Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter (X360), Super Mario 64 (N64), Finaly Fantasy XI 2003 Edition, Super Mario Advance SMB2 and Ninja Gaiden Black.

I also wanted to mention that the Game Rush on Gulf to Bay had a few Logitech XBOX wireless controllers on the rack. I bought a few at the Blockbuster on 38th Ave. N. in St. Pete not too long ago for $17.50 after 50% off. The Enterprise GR also has some 1 gig PSP memory sticks. Those are 50% off too, I believe.

You got that Quake 4 360 guide at Best Buy right?

If you didn't, I'll hook you up with one of my extras.

Thanks man, but yes, they had plenty of Quake 4s and even a few Condemned guides when I stopped by on Wednesday. Still need a CoD: Big Red One, though.

Does anyone know of where I could get a used or new xbox for cheap in tampa bay? With the ps2 price drop, I might wait to see if xbox will follow suit. Any advice for a Tampa guy?

Pawnshops are good. There's about 15 pawn shops around USF. I think they run about 75-100 at pawns.

My only worry is if I go through a pawn shop, I could be getting someone's POS xbox and I'm stuck with it; at least buying used with gs/eb, I have a window of 3 months to see an error. . .

Usually pawn shops say cash back for 7 days, and store credit for 30 days. I bought my PS2 from a pawn shop 4 years ago and it still works. It is of course a risk.
