No 30% discount for me, but they were kind enough to upgrade my shipping. Can't complain. Just happy I managed to get one.

I ordered mine between subway stops. Every time I lost connection I worried.

Ordered mine at the grocery store while waiting for a taxi. Just happened to check gaf on my phone to kill time. Luckyyyy.
 
I got the FE SE THANK GOD.

I tried to get 30% but Raghu and Nusreth weren't having it :(

I'm just happy I finally got it after all this waiting. I can finally sleep tonight.
 
People will always look for ways to get lower price but maybe it shouldn't be a thing to brag about with screenshots and stuff and encouraging others to do the same. I don't know. Maybe I'm just being weird.

You're right the screenshot stuff is a bit douchey. I'll edit it out of my post.

Just to be clear though I wasn't exploiting them per se. I asked for it and she said she'd make an exception for me. I think trying to trick the CSRs into giving them like 60% off doesn't look great.

Yep, I'll do the same. I feel bad for those that didn't get an order in. I didn't mean to brag, they gave me an odd discount. But I do agree it's disrespectful.
 
What have we becoooooooome!

I guess people are desperate for deals lol
 
"Hi, I notice you have a promotion for 30% off 2 or more pre-orders. I pre-ordered Fire Emblem and <game> and did not receive the promotion."

It's not rocket science.


PROTIP, if they ask for a link, send them a link to the main videogames page where the "save 30%" banner is at the top. DO NOT send them the link to the list of games, since FE isn't listed there.


Fire Emblem Fates - Special Edition - Nintendo 3DS
Sold by: Amazon.com.ca, Inc.
CDN$ 66.05

My reps math was off, but w.e.

Thanks GAF!
 
Two tries to get the 30% deal on the FE SE and denied both times.

I hate when the reps actually read the promotion details!

Ah well I'm done, just glad I got one.
 
Well, that'll teach for going off the internet for a couple hours. Never again. Goddamnit...

I'm spamming the Best Buy website until this goes up there. No sleep, work or anything else until then.
 
I just realized that rather than apply 30% off to my order, the rep just took 30% off each item (so it doesn't actually show any discount in the order, just reduced game prices).
 
from past dealings with them they pretty much just take the price off the items instead of going into your order and giving you % off.
