FF 2 preorder at BB
 
ok, i preordered fantastic 4 2 from BB with 5 dolalrs, and it said i could get a lithograph a 9.99 value so i did it, i got the deposit in a dvd case with a picture inside, nothin fancy at all ( most of you know what im talkin about) i went to the store yesterday to buy, and i said im also here to pic up my lithograph for preordering and the "manager" came back and said that the lithograph was in the dvd case.
I highly doubt that piece of paper is a $9.99 value!
Has anyone else ran into this?

No, I just got the $4.99 figurine and haven't opened my "Power Cosmic" 2 disc edition yet to see what's inside it. But yeah, I would not think any lithograph that could fit in a DVD case would be worth $10.

^ it would be such false advertisment if thats all it was it, and there was no special in the 2 disc case.

I always assumed that piece of paper in the DVD case was in fact the lithograph and never bothered to think otherwise about receiving another lithograph on release day or whenever. Very disappointing, I agree.

The lithograph is inside in the DVD case that is the pre-order. It's NOT inside the Power Cosmic Edition, or any edition of the movie itself.

Ratmman02 10-03-07 08:20 PM

^ dont you agree thats not at all worth 10 bucks

^ well, technically, those who pre-ordered the item to get the "lithograph" had that $5 go towards the final value of the dvd itself, so in actuality the item was free. doesn't make up for the fact that the lithograph was crappy, but it's not like it ended up costing anything more.

i see it as getting a free dvd case :D

I didn't pre-order it because they wouldn't let me put more than $5 down. So I waited and just bought it somewhere else for $5 cheaper, so take that Best Buy!

Also, I had a feeling the litograph was in that DVD case and it would be a waste of money. Sorry dude.

Lecithin 10-04-07 09:20 AM

Whatever it actually cost though, saying that it is a "$9.99 Value!" is a dubious use of the term "value" that's all I'm sayin'.

Trevor 10-10-07 09:53 AM

That happens everywhere, companies advertise "$x.xx value" for things that are free anyway, or basically worthless.

And yes, the lithograph is definitely the little crappy pic that was inside those DVD cases.

Not worth anything, but they were free at least, and a free case as well.
