Peripherals fall under "items not listed in other categories". It would basically be considered the same as a mouse of keyboard.

Thanks
Okay. Thanks.
It's a controller.
The drive is 20 minutes each way, and I'd have to borrow a vehicle, so I want to make sure they'll take it back before I go.

Just call them and ask.

Maybe. I looked online.
I've just always assumed that, once something is open, unless it's defective and they have no replacement available, you have to keep it. And if you exchange a defective product, you get a new one and are stuck with it.
I'll probably have to
I emailed them yesterday, so if they don't reply tomorrow I guess I'll just call.

Why wouldn't you just call in the first place? Instead of sending an email / waiting for a response and posting about it on NeoGAF. You could have an answer by now.

Honestly? I didn't think about it. I tend to avoid phones because of my social anxiety.
I wasn't going to rush back to the store the next day, or anything, and figured it'd be fine to wait for the email. I'm not great in social situations, or on the phone, and it's easier for me to describe the situation in text via email rather than on the phone.
Phones make me nervous.
Was it originally purchased in-store? If you bought it online, you could always just RMA it. As long as the agent you get knows what they're doing you wouldn't be on the phone more than three minutes.

I'm new to all of this, so I must seem like an idiot. I've never exchanged anything bought online, and have hardly ever shopped online.
I bought one online, opened it and noticed that the controller had scratches on it and that the left side wasn't flush. It wasn't put together properly, and I could see the clips when I looked in the gap.
I tried to use a bit of force, to see if that would fix it, but it didn't.
That one was returned to a physical store, and I received a new one in exchange. She didn't open the new one, because I told her I had OCD and would check it at home. (She was going to let me look it over there, but I wanted to wash my hands first. I had no problem with her slicing the sticker keeping it shut, but she decided against it I guess, even though I asked if she had to.)

I've had packages marked as delivered by Canada Post not show up until the following day in the past.
Yeah, I've had this to. Very shady business practice.
Right up there with "but we came and you weren't at the door"

Canada Post has said it's attempted delivery, when people have been home. They usually just drop stuff in the community mailbox instead of trying, though.
The convenience store near me that has a post office in it is a place I plan to not return to. They're assholes, and try to screw you everywhere they can.

Terrible. i'm sure they do this because the "Standard" delivery date was today and they don't want to get their wrists slapped. I just don't understand why they would do this and then not deliver it (but deliver letter mail).
Their tracking is basically useless, if they scan them in whenever they want. Dominoes pizza tracker has more accuracy.
My tracking actually says it was delivered to my community mailbox, at 10:37am. originally scheduled to arrive yesterday, but delayed.

So is this right? Phantom Pain for $15 on microsoft's store?
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store...Phantom-Pain-for-Xbox-360/productID.321824700
Will wal-mart match this? They're still charging $40

You should be able to get a new copy from Craigslist/Kijiji for $65 or $70.

Trade in one game worth $8 or more (trade-in-value) at EB Games, and receive a copy of Song of the Deep for 'free.'
Really good deal.
Here's the link to their promotions page, which houses a list of most of the games they'll give $8 for.

This is for a physical copy, right? If so, I think I'll trade in my copy of Fossil Fighters for it.
User 479360

Yep
I wish I had a physical copy of Fossil Fighters instead of digital, because I'd trade that in. I may trade another 3DS game in though.

I'm pretty sure EB is giving it with pre-orders.
Coolsies. Will stop by Friday to do it.
Just noticed that EB is also doing a trade 3 for select titles, one of which is Metroid Federation Force. A trade 3 (minimum $10) for a 3DS game which is probably gonna bomb hard? lol
That's an idea... Though it involves meeting someone which I'm never that comfortable with... Hm.
Thanks for the idea, though. I'll see if I can work up the courage.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
I saw Shoppers selling it yesterday . Maybe combine with a 20x or $75 points event? Gets you a little over $20 in points.
Or EB is doing trade 3 get $70 towards UC4 if thats an option. No straight up discounts otherwise.

Two questions for you, CanadaGAF:
1) Is Coke on sale anywhere in Ontario this coming week? I'm just about out, and need to pick up at least another 24, which should last me 10-12 days. I have one can and a bottle of Vanilla left.
On the same note: I tried Cherry again and love it, too. It's been years since I've had Cherry or Vanilla.
Hopefully I can get a couple cases with the Cineplex deal on them for $8 or so. I thought that the last two I bought (which are going out in recycling tomorrow) had the deal, but it seems I saw a bunch of the deal cases but grabbed two without it, haha.
Ah well: I've used two of the buy one, get one free codes already, can still buy more cases, and have one sitting here unused.
2) I'm due for a new phone, as mine has a battery problem and is out of its contract. I don't particularly want to go back with Virgin, because they've been ripping us off (at least, it feels that way, at 500mb of data per month for $50 after taxes). And I want to get an iPhone.
I don't plan to buy a phone. I don't need a top of the line phone. They get outdated so fast. I just want to get a free iPhone, with unlimited text, some calling and as much data as possible.
Haha, yeah, I feel the same way about that. They sometimes sneak those 'deals' in for 3DS games, to try to get people to slip up. I don't hate the company like a lot of people do, but that's one thing I don't like.
I'd never do it, but I'm smarter than the average gaming consumer.
I think I'll do the Song of the Deep thing. Just gotta' figure out what I want to trade in.

The game doesn't come with it by default? I might just cancel my order then.

Honest question:
What do you like so much about steelbooks? Just collecting and displaying them? Or actually using them?
I completely understand the former and think it's a nice thing to display. However, using them is a nightmare for me and I don't get why people don't complain about how regular cases aren't included in SEs, CEs, LEs, etc.
I used to collect them, now I don't but if there was one on my $32 copy I would actually buy the game now.
If it doesn't come with the game, forget it I'm gonna wait for $20. I already own the game twice.
If the design is nice and it's not expensive to obtain (ie, CE/LE versions only) then I would go for it.
User 479360

That's fair.
I was just honestly curious, because whenever I've gotten steelbooks they've made my life Hellish. Trying to get the disc out without bending it too much or doing any damage scares me and it takes me a while to get them out, before I move them to a regular case.
The hubs are so bad.
I stopped when I realized I was just buying movies I don't even want to watch and they were so hard to keep up with, they're expensive to buy.
The BB I work at received three copies of the game yesterday, all were the steelbook.

Well coke is on sale at Walmart this week. $6.47 for a 24.
Yeah, not a fan of a lot of steelbooks. Not to mention it's going to look all weird and inconsistent with the rest of my PS4 games, which is going to bug me. I'd rather have a regular PS4 case for it, honestly.
Where!!!

There is a 24 hour variety store just south of Yonge and Lawrence, across from a gas station.
Only cans though.
They have battles of Cherry Coke Zero. (1L)
This has my interest. Damn, hope there's some somewhere around here.

Search for the Koodo Manitoba 5gb unlimited Canada wide plan for $48. It's very easy to get in Ontario and you can keep your number.
Food Basics have 500ml bottles of Vanila and Cherry on for $2. At least the one in Elmira does.
lol, there's a lot of unnecessary info in this
It's coke, it's literally always on sale somewhere, just check Safeway or walmart or something.

Or download the Flipp app and search Coke and it will tell you every store that has it on sale.

Obligatory you guys shouldn't be drinking coke everyday post.
Hahaha what.
I'll ask my roommate about it next time I see him, which may be a while since this is probably directly his problem.
