Plus $5 for shipping... I can get it for $15 at BB. Thanks, though.

Galanthas 10-20-03 04:35 PM

I would expect it would be 9.99 in store as well.

ben12 10-20-03 04:36 PM

Oh...

OH! D'oh. Sorry, dude. Right you are! Going to head to EB this evening and find out.

They have a saver shipping for $1.99 now. Not bad at all and not that much more than tax for the convenience of having it sent to your door.

rawer 10-20-03 06:40 PM

Can anyone confirm if this is good in-store as well?

---Update---

Looks like this is a no go at the B/Ms. My local EB still has it at $19.99.

Why did this game drop so much but Wario and Mario party 4 are still 50 I really dont undestand it. And its making me quite mad.

YMMV apparently. I just called my local EB just to check and they quoted 19.99. Of course it could be just this store or the B&M stores haven't been updated yet. It's goofy to have the online component of your store to have a different price though if it stays this way. That $5 Rygar deal awhile back was online and b&m so I don't see why this wouldn't be but that's just me heh.

EB tends to be very slow about actually updating the pricing on the boxes (which is where they usually look if you call in for a price). If they scan it, it almost always agrees with the website (at least in my experience).

BobaFett2000 10-20-03 08:40 PM

I went to the EB at Arden Mall is Sacto Ca, and had them scan it and it was $19.99. Looks like it is just an online thing.

Dammit, like I needed to spend more money on games. Especially ones I've already played through with a friend. Thanks a lot! :mad:

;)

$11.98 shipped

This is a misprice. EBgames.com does this every now and then. But the good news is, they honor their misprice. Order now while its still $9.99.

Jtnguyen12 10-20-03 09:24 PM

Just pickup Rygar $14.99 (NEW) at ebgames today. Also, Rygar $17.99 (USED)

GatorDeb 10-20-03 09:47 PM

Rings up $19.99 in store but they will honor a printout of the website :) (box has a higher price, forgot how much).

I just paid $14.99 at BBuy but I haven't opened it so I can return it :)

I disagree. EB Games sometimes clears out stock like this.

Ask if they pricematch their website, mine stated they did :) It also rang up at $19.99.

rawer 10-20-03 10:41 PM

I had my local store look up the price: $19.99.

I asked if they had the same prices as their website, but he said they were the same in name only (two "separate" businesses).

Oh well, looks like the website will get my money...


On a side note, I got the same story from Walmart when I tried to get my local store to pricematch with their website. There I was told they "didn't want to compete" with the webstore. So I gave my business to the webstore.

I got SFA a few months ago at Blockbuster when they had buy 1 get 1 free for 34.99. Paid 18.50 after tax each for Super Mario Sunshine and Star Fox Adventures. It was worth 18.50 heh,barely...

CaptStormy 10-21-03 11:17 AM

Too good to pass up for $12 shipped. Thanks for the deal!

ShawnMercury 10-21-03 11:43 AM

Also picked up Preowned Smuggler's Run $5.99 (PS2) and Wave Race $11.99 (GC) (and used the AFF25 - 25% off code) and chose the EB special shipping. So I got 3 games for $21 shipped.

rayw69 10-21-03 02:18 PM

Anyone been able to get this price in-store? I have credit that can't be used on their website.

ben12 10-21-03 04:39 PM

Ordered it last night online. It shipped this afternoon! FAST!
