truematic said:Hope this helps someone...check out this flyer that I found on my car this evening after I stepped out of OfficeD.
Page 1 shows the DS Lites and all the sale and store information that you need - apparently the sale is for the 25th(gone), 31st, and Jan. 1st.
Page 2 shows the actual front page, which contains the Xbox 360 HD DVD player for $99.
Dont' see any mention of rebates or other extra work.
I'm not in the market for either of these, but looks green to me...Happy Hunting!

ummm...
The spot that you have highlighted (which, admittedly, looks like it has the shadow of a "1" in it) is where the "$" sign would be if the price had actually been $199 not $99. If what you were implying were true, you would see a shadow of a "$", not a "1" in that spot.
I think this is just an optical illusion. If he were using a bitmap editor to fudge this, he would just have done a copy-shiftToRight-paste, not some sort of blurring that would have left a shadow of the "1".

I called into gameplay yesterday, they're actually selling it at this price. Too bad they're out of stock. |

I agree however, all you have to do is shift the whole price. Not hard at all. Then cover up with the same color and noise. |

Funny, the area in front of the other two prices look the similar...were they were retouched too? Dun think so..all 3 areas look the same. |

Do they have ads you can grab in the store? Pricematching a print out will be tough. |

Went to the Venice Blvd. Gameplay, and they didn't have it in stock. Asked if it was a price mistake and he said no, they sold out within minutes on XMAS day.
Drove over to the Circuit City in Culver City for a Pricematch. CC called them to verify it was the price for a new, not used unit. They confirmed it was for a new one, and the Manager OK'd the PM for an OTD price of 97.37!

No go at Van Nuys Circuit City
"it's not a local retailer"
Bastards
No go at North Hollywood Sears

Nice move Wolfie! It's good to see a strong West Coast contingent on FW!
Boy, you hear all kinds of things on FW! I have better things to do than sit here and mislead the forum that helps me. Maybe this says more about the Damademan3 than anything else...only YOU can decide to trust again, my friend...
Here are new ups, two ups for each page this time:
P.1.1.
P.1.2.
P.2.1.
P.2.2.
And that's all folks! HAPPY NEW YEAR'S!!! |

Awesome deal if you can get it. I live on the east coast so how can i get this deal? Almost as hot as the Sears price mistake a few months ago on the 360 hard drive for $14.99. Some poeple PM'd @CC and got em for like $6 no lie. I only got WalMart to sell me 5 at the $14.99 still awesome deal like buying a premium for $60 can't beat that. I maxed out my 360 harddrive with downloads, and i just picked up a 1TB drive for $450 to back up my 360+comp+ipods. |

I bought my Xbox 360 Premium $199.95 at MicroCenter in Tustin CA ($399.99 - $100.00 MIR - $100.00 Visa application Bonus = $199.99) AND did a pricematch at Best Buy for 2 HD DVD drives for $99.95 each
Thats a total of $299.90 for Xbox 360 PREMIUM and HD DVD drive ...... I am soooo happy..... and an extra HD DVD Drive for a friend ($99.95).
I called to confirm the price before doing the pricematch at BB,
(they said they were out but were getting more tomorrow, I couldn't wait so I went to BB with the printout (BLACK/WHITE) of both pages of the flyer, BB called and confirmed the price, presto I got 100.00 discount on each HDDVD drive)
of course plus sales tax.
This is Legit

Pricematch at a Circuit City in So Cal = Success for me too! Thank you OP! |

Anyone who got a price match at a major retailor like BB, CC, etc mind scanning a receipt I'd be forever grateful. I live in Jax Fl tried the PM and noone would do it because the store isn't local. They did however say if I could get a receipt from a CC, BB, they would match it here. You can block out your personal info. Thanks, send to inbox72@comcast.net |
