Any sign of the Destiny CE's on any Canadian retailers websites yet?

So, I want to pick up the Ghost Edition of Destiny, but I have the Standard edition pre-ordered from the 2013 E3 Deal on the Future Shop site. If I understand correctly, I have to cancel that pre-order, lose my discount and preorder the Ghost Edition at full price? Is that correct?
You get 10$ cashback on FC4 right now but you used to get 10$ cashback too when the game was still 60$.

Yup I just got the emails. I was kinda hoping they would've forgotten.

Disappointed that it's just $10 against the regular edition of the same game. Already have that ordered for a better price.

I had a dream that Target put the wrong price tag for the 3DS XL (the tag for milk), and after discussing with her manager, they decided to honour their error and I bought a red 3DS XL for $5. Then I woke up. 
One day... one day I will find a killer deal before RFD hoarders ruin it.

I'm waiting for the Steam pre-order to show up. Hopefully we'll get cheap keys.
Yeah, just got the email from BB regarding my pre-order for the Kyrat Edition of Far Cry 4 being cancelled. Got a code for 30% off the regular edition or $20 off the Kyrat one. I already have the regular one pre-ordered, so if anyone missed out on the E3 deals and wants the code, they can have it.

Any chance of someone able to buy games from that store in Windsor willing to sell me a game or two in Toronto?
Don't think Toronto has that store.

Umm so this is apparently what I got as per my Far Cry 4 cancellation:
With the following code you will receive Far Cry 4 Kyrat Edition of your original order at the advertised price of $49.99.
Is this saying what I think it's saying?

You check your junk mail? That's where mine was.

I'm waiting for that as well, if anybody sees them please post here
Isn't it gonna be an open Beta? I registered last year at Bungie.net with a code I got back then but I'm not sure it's still needed!
I got the same email. Do you live in Quebec? I think retailers have to honor pricing errors for QC customers.
Haul Day 2, just movies this time.

My dad got:
Penn and Teller Bullshit Season 4
2 George Carlin DVDs
And a couple more comedy DVDs that were way before my time.
Almost got the Attack on Titan Blu-ray/DVD combo, but since they packaged them separately, I'd need to buy both for all of the discs. Also eyed Mario & Luigi Dream Team, but ugh those tutorials.

Ahh so then that explains it. I guess there's a bit of a silver lining to living in this province, despite all the problems. Don't see the point of them even bothering to cancel it in that case but hey, a deal's a deal.
The beta is supposed to be only available to anyone who pre-ordered. Once you register your code on the Bungie site, they're supposed to email you your beta code on the 17th, assuming it's for PS4. Not sure about your code from last year though.
I got the same email and I live in Quebec as well. Don't understand why they would cancel it from the original order if they are actually going to honor the price.
And they don't honor TLOU remastered nor Metro Redux... Bunch of...

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Its a Ubisoft CE so no. They'll be on clearance for $50 in a few months and no one will still want them.
Exactly. Just got my cancellation email, so I guess I won't preorder it and will instead wait for the CEs to go on clearance sub $70. Over or under on 9 months?

Hello Friends,
I preordered Destiny during last year's E3 in 2013 from Futureshop. When will they send me the Beta key?

Just a heads up to the other Quebecers regarding the Far Cry 4 code: I entered the code and it only gave me the $20 off. Guess it's time to make a phone call...

Yea I hate this. Changed my CC since last E3 and have to change my card info for the remaining orders.
Just noticed that as well. I sent them an email and I will let you know what I get as an answer.

same for me, time to call them and resell that package for 90$

Got the email as well. It clearly says that the code will "enable" me to buy the Kyrat Edition for 49,99 but when I try it, I get 20$ off the price.
Wow...

Hrm, just got that coupon as well. It works out to be a bit more expensive than it would have been to order during E3 I suppose?

Jesus. Between this and Playfire Rewards going to shit, my reasons for continuing to buy games from there are rapidly disintegrating. Though that said, it seems like so far it's just Ubisoft games? I haven't seen anything else on the store marked as Canadian.
Nope, Bestbuy doesn't have any of the collectors editions qualify for the promo.
Amazon didn't put that edition as part of their promo.

I mean, it would have been 50 bucks if you bought the normal edition during E3?
(Since only Quebec gets the collectors for 50 bucks...)

They did this a couple of weeks ago. Same with Assassin's Creed Unity. According to GMG, Ubisoft singled these two games out (with The Crew still being NA). Oddly enough, they told me it's actually $70 USD, too. I was going to do a piece on it, but the response I got from Ubisoft was them just pointing the finger back at GMG.
Yeah.
I'm forgoing the damn thing. Not worth my money for 130.
I have the code if any of you guys want it.
If we preordered Destiny from Futureshop, were we supposed to get a beta invite as well? I don't see an email from Best Buy or Futureshop for an invite
Yea, I didn't get one yet either. Checked my junk mail box too
Don't you need to be an employee?
There's a site available to RZ members.

So I went to Bungie.net and signed in with my PSN account and it didn't show any redeemed beta codes so I entered the new code I got recently from BB, July 10th we get to choose our preferred platform then it'll start on the 17th! Apparently I redeemed the code I got from E3 2013 to my old PSN account!
I have an extra Beta code, first PM gets it!
How low have you guys seen ACIV at retail? Considering picking it up during the current XBL sale but I'd rather the disc.
Search your e-mail. FS sent mine months upon months ago.

Jesus christ. The copy of Atelier Rorona Plus I pre-ordered from Amazon.ca has gone MISSING. It says it was delivered on Friday, and there's still nothing today. What the fuck. It's almost two weeks late as it is, and now it's fucking missing and who the hell knows when I'll get a copy (or even IF I'll get one, should Amazon decide to fuck me over).
This has to be the worst E3 pre-order experience.

Lowest I have seen it for 360 and One was $30 at Target last week. Pretty sure the sale ended though.

Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
I did, many times. What else I could do? Will it help calling them ?
