Yay new thread!

But I'm honestly disappointed we didn't go with Lone Prodigy's brilliant:
Canadian Gaming "Deals" and Discussion OT7: When it comes to deals, we're having Nunavut.

 

[KnightHart]

Another 400 pages of suffering through shipping and currency conversion woes. M-Maybe this year it'll get better. R-RIght?

I call for a do-over

So weird to scroll past that OP and see a link to tsilon.ca. Oh the good days.

Also Birthright just sold out at the BB I work at.

you're not using 100 ppp?

but why?

 

[AzureSkies]

IT'S SHIPPING TIME

 

[Wedge7]

Nice, another new thread.

Hopefully things start turning around with the currency, ordering things on ebay and paying with Paypal doing the conversions is just brutal.

 

[Luigi87]

GAF default when I joined in 2009. I shall never change!

 

[Crazymoogle]

Thanks to whomever said to update shipment speed. Sure enough, it caused Amazon's system to re-check the order and start FE for shipment. CS then moved it to next day Delivery.

Amazed CS couldn't just trigger the shift themselves though.

 

[Astra]

IT'S SHIPPING TIME

Yes it is, because Best Buy just shipped my FE Fates SE \o/

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

And the correct thread title was chosen.

Nope.

 

[curb]

Nope.

That one made me laugh the most out of all the recent suggestions so it still gets my support.

 

[Oneself]

Happy new thread Canada GAF.

I look forward reading more rants about poor exchange rates, EB/BB/Amazon, Canada Post, Québec and Gravity Rush Remastered physical version.

=)

 

[WrenchNinja]

It took me 5 minutes to figure out the joke in the title. Wow Im dumb.

Here's to another thread of tears

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

How could you remove Prime Day from the OP. It's totally a thing.

 

[FrsDvl]

How could you remove Prime Day from the OP. It's totally a thing.

I wonder if they're doing another one. And if it'll actually be good this year.

Spoiler

they will, and it will probably be even worse

 

[knacklover]

I had forgotten about Prime days, the memories of buying nothing!

So are you guys playing FE: Fates?

It does look good on my shelf here.

The SE, yes.

Ideally yes, but my order hasn't moved despite an expected delivery of today. It's just as well, I won't have much time for it this weekend.

 

[jholmes]

Here's to some deals in this new thread and leaving the shipping talk about Fire Emblem and SFV in the last thread, right?

Well, I tried anyway.

 

[truestatic]

That delicious new thread smell. My Best Buy copy of Fates got here... just a little the worse for wear. Hopefully the Amazon copy fares as well, even if it does take its sweet time.

 

[Sora_N]

My FE didn't come. It's Canada Post's fault

no study distractions I guess

 

[zroid]

I'm trying to wrap up Mario & Luigi Paper Jam tonight before I start Fire Emblem...

pretty close to the end I think

meanwhile just enjoying the art book :')

 

[doctorcdcs]

Me be man again someday...

Classic game. My eyes are always drawn to your avatar whenever you post. I think we might be the only two on GAF with classic Sierra ones!

I got that reference!


I guess we're the only two with good taste then. haha

 

[-Deimos]

You forgot the quotes!

 

[terrible]

Well, I guess it's sort of a deal, but its not new:

Rainbow Six Siege Gold (Base Game + Seasons Pass) on Final Clearance at Best Buy for 69.97

It's normally 129.99 (amazon has it for 119.99) so its not a bad discount. xbox one version was dropped to 9.97 but that's sold out.

PS4:

PC:

http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product...spx?path=27062f342845db15379be4b1961666f7en02

I'm still waiting for the regular version of the game to hit $30 on PC. Can't justify more than that since I already have it on PS4.

 

[mdubs]

Should have been "deals"

 

[Tapejara]

New thread! Also, Firestorm you linked to the old Canadian PoliGAF thread in the OP. This is the current one: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1134779

 

[i-Jest]

Hi guys!

Bye guys, see you at E3!

Hopefully by then games won't cost $84.99 on average, as we're seeing with Nights of Azure.

 

[Ventara]

Eh, thread title is alright, but would've been better if it referenced backlogs or Amazon CSRs. We're always talking about shipping, and thread 5 already referenced it.

Nothing else happens in Canada sorry

Canada Post really screwed me over though

 

[VanCityGamer]

Pretty disppointing title IMO. There have been many better dollar-related ideas thrown around.

 

[Proc]

That feel when you look at American Truck Simulator and it stares back at you with a $28.99 price tag...

 

[baconcow]

Good old Amazon CSR's. So difficult at times trying trying to explain an issue, on chat. In the end, though, things tend to always end up fixed to a satisfactory level. I cannot say that about companies like Dell or Microsoft, anymore.

With the dollar being what it is, I hope this thread comes through with some nice deals.

 

[Lothars]

Amazon just shipped out my TE2+ fightstick! It should be here Monday!

They shipped mine as well but not suppose to be here till thursday.

 

[Mike Works]

Man, I know this would be too much of a thread split, but I'd love a Digital Canadian Deals thread. I've gone all digital this gen and I pretty much never check this thread anymore because it's usually about physical deals and/or shipping of said physical deals.

 

[terrible]

I've had nothing but good luck with shipping since I started paying for release day shipping with Amazon with games I want

Spoiler

need

on day 1. Even my UPS packages have been getting here on time and they've been a nightmare for me in the past. I did get one package at 8:30PM though which was kind of funny. I didn't know they delivered that late.

Of course I've now jinxed it.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

I was originally going to return Birthright and SFV, but now I'm just sitting here looking at the package wondering if I should cave and open it. D:

 

[Lexxism]

Eh, thread title is alright, but would've been better if it referenced backlogs or Amazon CSRs. We're always talking about shipping, and thread 5 already referenced it.

Yeah. The other title suggested was right on the money since it's a reference to those people who were exploiting the incompetent Amazon CSRs.

 

[Luigi87]

Should get my TE2+ on Monday.

Of course I have a 2PM-10PM work shift that day, lol... bluh

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Brought to you by the crappy Canadian dollar.

 

[enzo_gt]

Expected the title to be about our dollar being in the shitter, but I guess this works too.

On topic:

SFV been preparing to shipment for days now ;_;

 

[Dragonslayer_023]

Thread is just too bogged down with shipping talk anyway. Your item shipping isn't a deal, why are you talking about that here?

 

[N° 2048]

New thread smell. ahhhhh

 

[DeathByBacklog]

Yeah. The other title suggested was right on the money since it's a reference to those people who were exploiting the incompetent Amazon CSRs.

You SERIOUSLY need to give it up.

Should get my TE2+ on Monday.

Awesome that if finally shipped for you. You look sick though. You should probably call in sick on Monday.

 

[Lexxism]

You SERIOUSLY need to give it up..

Opppppsssss. I'm sooooo sorry for that.

 

[Fularu]

You SERIOUSLY need to give it up.
.

Haters gonna hate

I have a R6 Siege PC code and no intention to use it, if someone is interested (before I take it to BST) just PM me

 

[thescience]

Finally received my TE2+ tonight! Can't believe they honoured that deal. Really stoked on the look and feel of the stick overall. A little creaky, but I am gonna give it some time to settle and break in a bit before I whine. For now, I'm pumped!

 

[Killer Queen]

Can someone hmu if you come across ps4 deals for Doom or Dark Souls 3?
