Sorry.
It might just be the Target around your area.. Because I reread the notes and scanned the items. Still 10% off systems for the foreseeable future.

Is it just Nintendo stuff that comes damaged?
I forgot NeoGaf had an ignore feature!
Target is supposedly increasing the discounts tomorrow, so by next week maybe games will be ok prices?

Amazon charged me for my Skull Kid LE! For awhile there, I was actually convinced I wasn't get gonna get it, so even if the box is slightly damaged, I'm just glad it's coming at all.
I would prefer that the box arrive undamaged, but I'm sure there are people who really wanted one who weren't able to get one.
Anyway, so happy right now!

So............... how about that snow?

Last weeks snowfall was higher than my damn snowblower. Having two driveways sucks in the winter. My wife refuses to let me retire one for the winter because she likes to park in the second garage that's attached to the house sometimes when getting groceries. Ugh.
No snow for me! Down in LA on business til tomorrow, then off to Vegas for a weekend before classes start up again.
how old are you? If it's one person calling you out, maybe they're just a jerk. If the general consensus is that you're acting irrationally then maybe you need to re-evaluate some things.Byron Bluth said:

The big strip mall thing here refuses to clear the walk in the areas not directly attached to their property, which makes walking a bitch. They do it like several days after a big snowfall.

You are the only one personally attacking me yes. I sent you that PM to please leave me alone.
I'm over it, just found the whole situation ridiculous.

No I got rid of my posts because people started complaining.
I vent about bullshit and am not happy when bullshit happens. It will never stop.
I forgot to check consoles when I was at Target a few days ago. I wouldn't mind grabbing another Vita at 20% off.
Didn't mean to seem overly snarky, apologies there
I guess I just wouldn't make a fuss about these things is all
Not this crap again.

I guess that would depend on the community.
Well there is the |OT| |OT| thread.

It's funny because in the N3DSXL launch thread I posted the pic and details about my buttons and had no complaints and only help.
Here I am met with salt, snark and attacks.
Why?
Ditto the MM LE in the MM OT.

It's probably because those topics are on topic in those threads. You'd probably even have a better chance of finding a trade there. I have no problem with you asking here if you want, I would too, but it's probably not worth posting again and again. I think people have a general beef with cross posting too
I take all the snark and drama to mean we're just getting shitty deals lately
Pretty much. We're all holding out for E3 or Target to get a little closer to the drain.
Well Byron I am going to take a stab at answering this question as a neutral observer, but I'd like you too keep in mind I bear no ill-will towards you and am just saying what I see. I particularly appreciate your contributions in the amiibo thread which have been very helpful to everyone.
You take things super-personally and get confrontational about perceived slights against you. Now I'm not saying that everyone here has been super nice to you or something, but I think the way in which you deal with people in this thread is probably a big part of it. In addition I think your over-zealousness in posting about your MM LE is annoying to some people as well because it's gotten past you ranting about one thing since you've done that about a few other things as well, plus the reposting and cross-posting.
Anyways that's all, again I don't have anything against you I'm just trying to help you understand what might be a reason behind this reaction.
But I like my mailman! I saw your post after I posted this.

Well first of all each thread is different. In those threads you haven't been posting consistently and built a reputation. Whereas here, you're more prominent and clearly there is a disconnect with what you think is ok and what other people who disagree with you think is ok.
It's not wrong to vent or ask for help, but when you are constantly doing it, then people notice and get annoyed. Just like you complaining about a product or service, people will complain about your complaining.

I posted looking to trade MM LEs twice over the course of two days and multiple pages in between posts. I see no issue with that.
In regards to how I react to people. People directly attack me and/or make fun of my situation instead of helping. That is more off topic and unhelpful as a community more than anything.
Anyways. I won't be looking to help people out in this thread much longer if this continues. I don't care when others vent or whatever.
I've had 4 damaged items and 1 lost and now found package in a matter of two weeks. If I can't talk about that here then so be it.

Shipping post!
Purolator just attempted delivery of MMLE according to tracking and now my package will be held at the local office tomorrow. Why tomorrow? Why not tonight as they close at 7pm? Is the driver just going to let it sit in his truck over night?
Why don't they just leave it like Canada Post? I suppose it's safer this way but man now I've got an extra day to wait.

Anyone have experience with FedEx? Do they just drop the package at your door or can I pick it up?
It's an xbox one

They need you to sign for the package or you have to pick it up. You can sign up for their "safe drop" option which gets you a barcode sticker which their couriers can scan instead of having you sign for it.
