Well, I went to TRU at lunch, it's across the street from my office and asked for a card to preorder Snow White, they looked all over the store, but couldn't find anything. I waited there for almost 10 minutes, of course I was browsing the videogame section for any deals, but no luck. So I wasn't able to preorder today from TRU. :D

Fortunately for me, I checked this thread again and saw the new Amazon price. I can always save on taxes, so thanks for the heads up!

So now I'm putting Amazon out for honoring their pre-order Price Guarantee. I want to respond and bitch but it won't let me email them anymore. Only call. I'm not sure I care enough to call and bitch someone out.

I received the same exact email. I love how they word it like they are doing us a favor by living up to their own pre-order price guarantee. I guess I shouldn't bitch too much, though; if they had lowered the price tomorrow, I wouldn't have had any recourse.

Next time you should copy their policy in your email and be like "how you like them apples biatch"

Wasn't going to buy Snow White, but for 10 bucks, it's basically a steal. Also got Texas Chainsaw Massacre for free shipping.

The Amazon deal is too good to pass up because I know Best Buy will not allow me to pricematch and use a coupon on it.

I was thinking the same thing as you, but then looked at my receipt and the sku's on the back of the steelbook. The steelbook has sku's for the free steelbook case, dvd combo pack and blu-ray combo pack. My receipt shows that they only scanned the sku for the blu-ray combo pack. The cashier procedures (on the back of the steelbook) state the best buy employee has to scan both sku's.

If my logic is correct, I'll try to price match Walmart ($19.96), minus the $7.50 deposit and the $10 coupon. The net price would be $9.96...and I would be able to keep the steelbook. It's worth a shot

I ordered from best buy and opened the steelbook. Don't know what to do.

The Steelbook is FREE (in big letters on the front of the packaging).......now you just have to decide what you want to do with your pre-order deposit, which is fully refundable.

Okay I got a question, we all know that Toys R Us is selling Snow White for 20 dollars while Best Buy is 25.

I already reserved my copy but can I get them to price match it to 20 and then my reserve deposit off that makes it 12.50 plus the 10 dollar coupon and I only pay 2.50 tomorrow. Is that possible?

i just call amazon since I preordered this last week for $24.99 less $10 coupon. They will credit me back the $5.00 preorder price guarantee making this a sweet $10 deal.

Had to go ahead and bite on this one. $9.99 with no tax or shipping just beats pretty much everything else out there.

looks like this applies just to the BR packaging? I was hoping it applied to the SD packaging as I liked the front cover better.. hmmm..

Nice. Thanks for the heads up on the $5 price drop. Wrote CS and heard back within the hour about a $5 credited back to my credit card.

I had sorta been bummed about Walmart getting such a good deal, but thanks to Amazon for pulling through for us!

Just got off the phone with Amazon's CS...they wouldn't refund me the $5, but they did give me a $5 credit on my account.

Actually you have until the end of the day on release day. So if it's even lower today everyone would still get a bigger discount/refund.

The new price shows up in my Amazon order history after my quick email to them. Thanks for the heads up!

I just ordered this with the coupon, and Amazon is now saying will ship within 1-3 weeks. Oh well, for $9.99 I can stand to wait a bit.

Mine originally said it wasn't supposed to ship until next week with a delivery estimate of the week after but I sent them an email last night about the price guarantee. When I checked this morning they said they were sorry that I didn't get the price applied and gave me a $5 refund and another email saying my order was shipped and a new delivery estimate of a few days from now. :up:

I got the refund of $5. Amazon shipped it yesterday and it's supposed to arrive Friday. I think I'll watch it this weekend. Should be fun.

Still like the TRU deal better. $6.46 and I have the Blu-ray in my hands right now. And I may try cancelling my Best Buy pre-order and seeing if I get to keep the steelbook for free.

So your local TRU gave you the $5 gift card for pre-ordering (as they were supposed to)? Sure would have been nice if your local TRU was the same one as mine, not the stupid dolts I had to deal with there at mine this morning:

Any chance you could tell me what store it is you shopped at? Maybe I can get the competent employees from your location to call the jackasses at mine and set them straight about what a pre-order incentive actually is....
