Tony Hawk's Underground 2 for PS2 or GC $4.99 at bestbuy.com [price mistake!]

This looks like it's a pricing error. According to the BB ad, THUG2 is supposed to be $4.99 only when you buy it with the new $50 Tony Hawk game. they priced THUG2 for $4.99 on the website without having to buy the new game. Since this is a pricing error, I think the best option is to do in store pickup. Dont forget about best buy bucks either.

Sony PS2

Nintendo Gamecube

Props goto zymase at Byte$izeDeals.com for the info

Free ground shipping is standard offer when an in-stock store item is actually out of stock. I have gotten the free shipping offer atleast three times. Twice it was a direct ship to my house. Once it was shipped to the store for pick-up.

EDIT: I guess that I should say standard offer if you place online order for store pick-up and the item is actually out of stock in the store after they tell you that it was in-stock.

When I went to the store to pick up my copy ordered online with best buy bucks I did some browsing and they have this game in the store marked $4.99 "as advertised." They had at least 15 copies left as of this evening (Thousand Oaks, CA). So, I bought another copy and picked up my free copy at the desk. 2 copies for about $5.30. Not bad. I guess I could have just used the same best buy bucks and got both for free, but I have a little more ethics than to use the same coupons twice, even though Best buy is really stupid for allowing people the possibility of doing that.

Had been looking to try out Thug (I played the hell out of 3, not so much 4 or Thug 1 though)

Sweet deal, specially since I had 3 bucks from a McDonald's sandwich sitting around

I just got an email saying that the order has been cancelled. It says if I used a gift card, that the money will be returned, but how does this work if I used the McD codes online? Will they be able to be used again?

Ordered 2 copies online Sunday for in-store pickup, went by store this afternoon at lunch and picked them up from customer service with no problems. Just checked the Best Buy website and the price is back up to $19.99! Looks like they caught their error after everyone took a liking to THUG2 these past couple of days. Good find while it lasted.

They cancelled my order on the web, but I went into the store with my confirmation. They had a sign out that said, "THUG 2 $4.99 as advertised". I ended up getting it for $4.99.
