I don't even want to think about how much the HTC Vive will be here after conversion.

Safe money is on $1099.

 

[enzo_gt]

Safe money is on $1099.

I'm going with 1100, Bob.

 

[killroy87]

Yup, PSVR will probably be my route of choice. If I'm going to spend a ton of money in my PC, I'd rather it be for a new video card

 

[grosvenor_92]

With the Current exchange rate the Vive is going to cost $1099 here.

 

[Crazymoogle]

Saying 1099 is just lying to yourselves. Add shipping, customs, tax...hello 1300-1400 :-(

 

[diaspora]

Realistically, it'd be $1100 CAD considering the current exchange rate makes this almost an exact conversion. Of course, there's sales tax but...

 

[KarmaCow]

Anyone else with Rogers having their internet shit the bed? It's not completely out but it took me about 4 minutes to load this page.

 

[Raimond]

I don't care what any retailer says. $59.99 is not a deal.

It has been like that for me the past few days. The wireless signal keeps dropping as well.

Man, this really weird. I never had this problem on my end. It works perfectly fine.

NEW DEAL
South Park: The Stick Of Truth Steam - $5 CDN

Though it's sold through Uplay, you're given a Steam key (can confirm as I just bought it, doesn't require Uplay at all). This is apparently the cheapest it's ever been.

Was this a Saturday-only deal? Damn it, I've been waiting for it at this price.

Was happening to me early last week. Only lasted a few hours and then cleared up by the evening completely.

Maybe something happening in your specific street.

and why is it $40 Now?

 

[Sealtest]

It's almost march and I still haven't seen a single Spider-Gwen marvel legends figure in store and my LCS has no idea when he's getting them.

What is going on with the distribution of this wave.

Exactly why I stopped collecting them. I might sell my collection soon. It's not possible to buy them and I lost interest 2 years ago.

My parents are with Rogers and I've been trying to Skype them all weekend but to no avail

 

[RS4-]

and why is it $40 Now?

Well that's shit, was gonna buy for $5

 

[True Fire]

The PS4 hasn't gone up in price since its initial 50 dollar price hike, right? I think it might be possible that PSVR will be more expensive than the PS4 in Canada.

 

[Fularu]

If by possible you mean certainly, then yes, it will be more expensive.

VR seems like a pipe dream for now, it's too expensive for the (yet to come) software

How good of a deal is this? Do wired 360 controllers hover around this price point often?

 

[sjay1994]

New thread title is strong

 

[DayEnder]

How good of a deal is this? Do wired 360 controllers hover around this price point often?

Last I checked they were around $30-35 each + shipping ($8). So pretty decent savings, maybe $25 off the pair. My 360 controllers were in pretty bad shape so it was worth it for me (plus they work on PC).

 

[zroid]

When I think about how a couple threads ago, the title was That $70s Show, it makes me sad. Those were the days.

Really puts into perspective how quickly the dollar got worse.

 

[Kabuki Waq]

anyone have any opinions on bell fibe tv and Internet?

going to switch from rogers and saving $150 as a result. currently getting 100 mbps with rogers and moving to 50mbps with bell now.

Internet did not go down in years and I always get advertised speed. TV is wonky at times but it might be my receiver getting old.

thanks. it will be nice to get 1080p. Rogers is 720p in my area.

Wait until March 1. Basic cable packages and some pick and pay packages are coming.

I'tl be interesting to see how much individual channels will cost. I'm expecting them to be insulting.

 

[zroid]

I heard that if you are mostly interested in sports then you're probably going to be paying even more than with the current packages. So I'm screwed.

 

[Lexxism]

Good thing I got the basic cable from Rogers cheaper. I don't have to worry about watching the blue jays. I just really need a cheap 4k TV 😭

Check Shaw's website for west pricing info. I suspect that's a good estimate of what they'll all do.

The others, guess they have until the 1st before they post anything, there was a CBC article about it.

The $25 basic is really compelling, especially since you can add a handful of your own channels for a couple of bucks.

Sports, well, you could just subscribe to the league's streaming. I actually prefer that because you can watch archived games on-demand, late at night when you want to unwind (ie not video gaming!), all commercial free.

Yea it seems to have resolved itself but that was bizarre.

 

[Ryde3]

damn looks like South Park is no longer 5$... OT thread 7!

 

[ovii]

Not really a deal but I want to share this with you guys. I was able to somehow get a brand new 'new' 3ds XL from kijiji today for $100. I'm extremely excited about this and can't wait to play some fire emblem.

 

[23qwerty]

brand new? boy that is stolen

 

[Sora_N]

Pretty likely yep lol

"Is this stolen?"

"No, fell off the truck" *points to tiny dent in box*

"Sweet I'll take it"

 

[MikeDip]

Met freaking limit this morning and he sold me fire emblem at cost. Wonderful.

We are great people. Specifically him though. And me too of course

 

[purpletentacle]

So, interesting development regarding my Street Fighter V PSN price-match.

You guys may recall in the last thread the launch day pricing error on PSN. I contacted Sony through their live chat and inquired about a refund on the $10 price difference (i had preordered the title last year)

Well, I got my refund on Saturday... for 69.99.

The game still works, so... um, yay?

Is Sony using Amazon CS reps now?

Does your pre-order Chun Li still work?

Just checked. Got the same but...slightly better?

I went through both phone and chat because I didn't want to take a chance that they'd screw up. Phone support gave me the refund immediately, $10 to my psn wallet. Chat just refunded me the $69.99 on top of that. WT?

 

[ovii]

Speaking of SFV, anyone have a spare Cammy SFV code I can have/buy? PM me.

 

[Couchaddict]

Where do you guys go to shop headphones? I find the Best Buy selection inappropriate.

 

[Freaking Limit]

Enjoy. From what I've played so far its been a blast. Difficult (Conquest on hard/classic) but extremely fun.

From scamming Amazon to scamming PSN

Spoiler

joking

. In all seriousness though, I didn't realize they did price matches. Is that only on errors, or just for all random, non-sale price changes?
