No way. No fucking way!!
Yes.
I'm not quite sure if you can cancel your order from their site like FS/BB but if you need to contact their customer support to cancel then it's not worth it. Their CS is so damn awful that a lot of people here were cursing them.

Welp. I'm not sure if I want the game. Not a huge Infamous fan but it does look beautiful so I ordered it at $49.99 anyway. If I change my mind I will just sell it to a gaffer for $55.
So, how does everyone feel about a pillow deal?
Been meaning to try a new one for a while and I saw that these Malouf 100% Talalay Latex Zoned Pillows for $30 all-in but only for size Queen, high loft and plush. There are 8 remaining as of this posting and it's the lowest price I've seen since tracking it last year (when I saw it on RFD for $50). A lot of positive reviews on Amazon.ca/com but what do I know about pillows?

hahaha ooooh boy
hate to say I saw it coming from miles away, but...
In this era of $70 games, I welcome any and every pillow deal we can muster. They're great for crying into.
So I guess you can't cancel your order online? What a bummer :/

Wow $90 off!?! That is ridiculous, I just bought one. Thank you for the heads up!
I bought a memory foam pillow off amazon on boxing day for $20 but it's really small and too firm for my liking. Really hoping this pillow helps me sleep better.

I preordered South Park near the end of Feb and it hasn't shipped yet, anybody else still have theirs stuck on "in progress"?
I will never buy a game for $69.99 + tax. That's too damn much, sorry.
Even $59.99 + tax is pushing it, which is why I pre-ordered basically the entire generation during E3.
If Future Shop drops the E3 33% off deal and starts charging $65 or $70 for games, they can go straight to hell. I'll be playing games on PC or on my Super Nintendo.
I don't know why $59 -> $69 feels like such a big jump to me... but it feels like such a big jump to me!

I've never heard of this policy. I see why they dint advertise it.
Because we used to pay 69.99 or more for games, and finally for a long time we had a stable price of 59.99. Even I paid 59.99 for a few games over the years, but now I also refuse to pay 69.99 for a single game. There's always sales (but sales have been slow as hell for the past 4-5 months for physical/retail stuff) so I can wait.
EB, for example, can go to hell for raising DW8 to 69.99. I'll wait until they discount it in 3 months.
Wow....dammit Sony. Luckily I preordered before this shit, I thought digital would be safe.
FS/BB don't price match pre-orders. Just wait for it to release and price match but they will add the 2.99 shipping on top of it.

Hey, are you talking to me?
Honestly if they are the only store to keep the $59.99 price tag I think we should try to support them, using paypal for payment would make it more secure if that's what makes many people stay away from them!

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I noticed that The Source has $30 off of all models of the 3DS XL, including the Mario & Luigi Dream Team bundle. $169.99 isn't too bad for that!
Cheers, folks.
Cheers, folks.
I don't know what to think of DW8. Seems like Best Buy and Futureshop hasn't even put it in their system yet.
Right now it's only VGP and EBgames.
Also, can't you tell bestbuy that VGP has retail stores so they can F off with the shipping charges?
Pissed at Sony.... WTFFFFFF.
Thx. Been looking for another xl ever since my wife turned my first one into her's.
Ugh, was holding out on getting Infamous from FS, then they raised the price, next I decide to get it on amazon, they raise the price, finally I decide I'll preorder on PSN... and now this.
$49.99 from Shop.ca is the best that it's probably gonna get, no more waiting.
How's their release date shipping?

Yeah I know, but EB will drop the price in a few months or I will just buy on PSN in a few months. Not in a rush to play it, I'm not even done with DW8 on PS3 yet. It's just that it's the only game I want for PS4 right now.

How douchey would it be to buy the game from fs/bb if I don't get my shop.ca order on release day then return the shop.ca game back to fs/bb if it ends up coming several days late?
Not that much, but I've heard people receiving resealed games from shop.ca so do it at your own risk.
Sorry, I haven't tried that yet since most of the time I got away with shipping fee charges.
I guess all of the people here are douche since that's we always do here if we won't get the order on release date.

Also another saving opportunity with shop.ca is buying the Infamous SS+ $50 PSN card bundle for $109.99 which qualifies you to get $15 off with a new account plus the coupon for another $10 off, should come down to $84.99 before tax!
It's unfortunately sold out.
My South Park Grand Wizard Edition has gone missing.
The post man drop shipped the item on my mom's porch when he wasn't supposed to (it says do not drop ship). No one was home, I don't know why he did that.
My mom and sis came home later, and he came back around to deliver stuff for her, and he asked if she got the other package, which of course she didn't. I got his name and employee number and complained to the supervisor, but I don't think that will go anywhere. I also told BB - I hope I at least get my money back because I am out of an item, the PS3 version.

I just did it earlier with my 2nd copy of Tropical Freeze.
I'll be doing the return trick for pretty much every game. I wonder if it'll get to the point where I'm blacklisted for returning too much.
I don't think so. Not from BB and FS anyways. My local BB always knows me to return sealed games and they're always cool with it.
EB though, idk.
I'm not surprised. It's their own digital store. They will charge whatever they see fit. It's just another reason to dread an all digital future.
Well fuck. I'm sorry to hear that man.
Was this announced? Yoshi 3DS XL...
