Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
You're indeed crazy for passing on the best game of 2013 at such a fabulous price.

Futureshop will account for shipping costs. I don't think the math will work out to $19.99.

I doubt we'll see much better prices come boxing day but anything is possible.
$20 first party titles from Nintendo are too few and far inbetween for me to take the chance, especially for only a $5 difference.
I still ordered Fire Emblem when they were sold out. Said they'd ship it when they were available. Shows up as 25$ on my order too.
Really? For the half off deal? Thats fantastic.

All sold out at the west Edmonton Superstore (as with any deal item in Edmonton, it seems).
I already own one so if they did have it in stock it would have been more annoying than anything.
DAMN! So would this be in all Superstores or just the one? Because I've seen deals at one location but not the other, even when the deal was going on for weeks.

Does anyone know if the Shop.ca Paypal $25 rebate is a one-time offer, or can it be used multiple times?
One time.
Yeah, I hesitated until after work, and by the time I got home, they were gone. Shame, too, it was a hell of a deal.
Oh well, more presents for my family, no heartbreak there.
I don't know what's going on with my Walmart Wii U order. Still says submitted to fulfillment(it's been saying that for a week now) and, after I sent them an email asking for an update, they've removed the hold from my CC :/
Check your local mall, if there's a sunrise or if HMV still exists in your area you might be in luck.. Otherwise, WalMart would have them for sure.
Just wait and buy the Blu set that includes the CD soundtrack. Amazon.com has it listed for $27.99.

As long as it ships by the 9th, but I agree he had posted that it was expected for them to ship by the 3rd.
After the 9th I would just have Paypal cancel the transaction but would be scrambling to find a unit as it is part of my kids x-mas present.
I am still in Supplier Processing

Does anyone know where I could get my hands on a Dualshock 4 charging station? Everywhere I have checked online is sold out and it's the same at my local EB and Futureshop.

Damn I'm on shipping soon since the sunday before last week.
Man, that would suck if I did not get it. I returned my PS4 last week to FS -_- I could have kept it just in case this crap happens since the policy to return them is extended to January.
Damn I'm stupid! I mean I really did return it because I'm in my final periods, and I dont want it interferring, still though -_-
Man Shop.ca better come through!
In addition I need to get my tracking info when it ships. I've read i think here or on RFD that some did not even get their shipping notices and received the items. This is not good because I need to know so I can be there to receive it and advert any problems
edit: at least they are responding on Facebook still claiming that it might ship before the 9th as of today

Haha, someone has an amusing theory - that Superstore misread a competitor's ad with the Mario & Luigi bundled 3DSXL for $190 and knocked the WiiU bundle down to match.
It's about the only thing that makes sense.

Americans can get Fire Emblem for 14.99 at bestbuy. We always get screwed over 
I got a shopping notice for a game I purchased yesterday so I'm pretty sure you will be fine
Just an fyi, Senn has a line of Chinese made headphones that are of decent quality, but they aren't fantastic. The German Senns never go on sale, btw; at least they don't at authorized retailers.
Wait what? Really...?

Whenever I want to buy a new LP or CD I order directly from the label. With the stuff I listen to at least it is almost always 5-10$ cheaper than Amazon or in store.

Does anyone know how to change payment methods on Future Shops website? I cant seem to find it.

Call them, you will probably get errors all the time if you try by the website. They also cannot update a credit card by e-mail. However, they will add a giftcard by e-mail request.
Them waiting 11 months to get it $11 cheaper qualifies as us getting screwed over?Americans can get Fire Emblem for 14.99 at bestbuy. We always get screwed over
Do you part and have at least 10 children to make us a comparative consumer market in a few decadesAmericans can get Fire Emblem for 14.99 at bestbuy. We always get screwed over

I know you like to defend Canada deals and all that, but come on now... You know what he means! People investigated the discrepancy of prices between Canada and the US (which will, of course, appear even bigger with deals) and it is insane how much we get screwed over for no reason other than country pricing.

I just picked up the PC version...knowing that I don't have the PC to run it and will be getting the PS3 version.....-___-
Cool that a bunch of people are grabbing it, hopefully I'll get to play with some other people diving in for the first time.
actually FE wasn't ever eligible for any E3 promos, unfortunately. it was only listed by FS/BB back in January or so.
I know in general we have higher prices but over the course of the year we save far more money and don't need to wait months for clearance prices to do so. Seeing people bitch about US deals because of one insignificant sale is a little frustrating in a thread where we post good deals year round.
Ah that does stink then.

I understand what you mean, but people bitching at things like that specific deal are probably just tired to see many deals like that not reaching us here. It's most likely accumulated frustration. However, all the deals from the past few days in the US are Black Friday deals and we really can't complain that we did not get prices that are as good here. We have boxing day for crazy shopping while carrying a hangover!
I have to agree with you on one thing, we sure get crazy deals on most video games when we do our homework with Futureshop.
Still... I would have loved those 50% off Vita memory card they got! haha

I think the problem is that these are the same corporate brand, even though they are separately operated companies or whatever.
So when Best Buy US as a deal, it is annoying when Best Buy CA doesn't match it.
That said, I am still annoyed that Amazon.ca and Amazon.com have different pricing a lot of the time. That makes no sense to me. lol

I managed to get the 32 gig vita card for 40 during their 2nd restock. 15 extra for shipping but whatever.
SHIP ALREADY I NEED YOU.

Yea I had it in my cart 3 times, during the 3 times it went up and every time it said that my credit card address did not match the one that is on file. It NEVER happens anywhere but on Gamestop US site. I looked it up and there was a crazy amount of topics about it all over the net. In the end, I was never able to get my order through...
