I was in the south philly store at 11am monday, there were 2 other guys looking for this deal, I was able to get on of the rep to print up a list, but is wasn't organized, I spent bout 30min looking, none of the game rang up to the sale price, I didn't have time to complain since i had to get back to work.

streetdealer said:i went to my best buy and the guy there said he hasn't heard anything about it and he even scanned them to check the prices and they were at regular price, can anybody that got madden nfl 2007 for ps2 and gta: san andreas for ps2 scan their receipts so i can have some sort of proof to do a price match, u can cross out any important information, just as long as they can see the price and the title... would be greatly appreciated
Well, no promises... but I'll try to catch my brother before he leaves town. Hopefully he still has his receipt.

But, will they even pricematch a "price adjustment"? I haven't looked at his receipt, but I assume it shows some type of override or manual subtraction (they originally rung up @ 19.99 each). Unless they ignore all that and just look at the "final" prices (ie. GTA:VC + GTA:SA = $4.xx)? Just wondering as I've never pricematched a scan of someone's receipt; although, I constantly read about people on deal forums doing exactly that.

I found about 4 games on the list, The Capcom collection was one, that rang up full price at $19.99 even though its on the list for $4.99.

For those of you who haven't figgured this out... there are different versions of GTA. The one with the red thing along the top is NOT the version on clearance.

Ok, I went buy again and got the collection editions of nyc true crimes. I also saw 360 college 2k6 and roadrally 2 or something...


nyc and 2k6 were 5 and nyc was 1.99

Let me know if anyone wants to trade some of their clearance titles!

Got GC version of HArvest moon this evening.... stores still have stuff! This deal is not dead....just YMMV as all clearance sales are.

my store actually had a tote of $4.99 games and $9.99 games. No $1.99 games thou (although i did clear them out of The Urbz which was on a special cardboard rack by the checkouts )

Was able to get a GC Incredibles Rise of the Underminer, PS2 midway arcade treasures, and PS2 Legacy of Kain Defiance at Honolulu, HI for 1.99 Monday evening. Some other titles there were the GBA Backyard Football, Mario, Spyro and Barbie something that I didn't even consider. About 20 1.99 titles and a few of the 4.99 games still in that section. Located next to the registers were the 9.99 stuff in cardboard display boxes. Not bad.

CSR that rang me up stated that some guy came in at noon and bought about 300 bucks worth of the 1.99 games and stated that he was going to sell em at GameStop to make some cash. Foolish dude as he will get max the 50 cents that other FW members stated. I expect him to return all that stuff today so I'll go tomorrow and take a look at the now expanded section.

Many of you bought these games and now you are talking about returning them? Why waste time and money doing this in the first place?

How much eBay profit do you all think you can make? These games suck and really wont sell that well, if BB can sell them for such a reduced price you can be sure theres a reason.

It just makes me sick that people will stand outside in the snow, drive from store to store, and bring bags to load up on crappy discounted ps2 games.

There was a post in here, talking about buy $1.99 and get a trade in credit around $8+, so you can use the credit for new release of your games. There may not be value on eBay, but there are value for itself.

Scored!! I went to the Mountain View, CA store last night and scored a few games.

Destroy all humans!
Star Wars Episode 3

$5.

Also noted that the BB store was having a 50% off sale for ALL OPEN BOXES!!!!
Extreme YMMV. This sale looks to be done yearly to help BB get rid of all extra crap that they gained from holiday returns and also before they take an inventory count(?)!!

AGAIN this 50% off OPEN BOX sale is YMMV. I was at another BB in Daly City and noticed that they didn't have the sale but they were prepping to have a clearance sale... looked as if items were getting the 33% off treatment off the (new) clearance items.

It should be B&M.. Which stands for brick and mortar (actual store.) Just head over to Best Buy, though you might want to print the list of games to take with you, and see what you can find. I don't have a clue as to when it will end....maybe when all the games are sold...

HTH, ADOLFO

The pickens were slim in Cincinnati Monday evening.

BestBuy Springdale had about 12-15 XBox and GBA games all told. They were not marked but were on a cart.
BestBuy Deerfield Township had less than 10 games that I could tell across the same 2 formats (and 360) the strange/impressive thing about this store is all of the price tags (the ones attached to the plastic dividers)were updated at in between 3am-4am on the 26th and had the correct prices for all of the games. IE I could see what I missed out on. I did end up buying a 1 GBA 1.99 and 1 XBox game 9.99 at the DT BB, but they were both the last ones.

Anybody have luck with the pre-buy/rebuy strategy that was being thrown around this weekend?

Did they honor the new prices?

I found one game Psp Popolocious for $9.99 in BestBuy Houston

Have to say the Urbz is not worth even .99.
