No. If they do it's something different than what you paid for like a worthless coin, an empty box or maybe a rock just so that they can have a tracking number to show off so they can run off with your money while eBay/Amazon let them. They are not sellers, they are scammers. They are not interested in providing you with a product.
Anybody here have experience with third party sellers on Amazon? I saw a 60" 4K Vizio TV for $10.22 so I quickly bought it. Within two minutes it was removed. I figured it was a pricing error but then a couple days later they charged me and I got the shipping confirmation email
I'm fully expecting a box full of rocks.
I actually bought a $2 copy of Mario Party 1 for N64 "new" back in October. I thought, hey, either I get a cheap valuable copy of Mario Party, or I refund through Amazon.
...
It never arrived, refunded through Amazon.
I live in Québec. Is pharmaprix the same as SDM ?
Also how do optimum points work ? I see a lot of people talk about optimum points and 15x or 20x days and redemption rates but it seems so complicated lol.

if anyone has a PSTV that they're willing to sell, please PM me.
yes they're the same
optimum points are awarded 10 for every dollar you spend, so during 20x you get 200 per dollar. you can redeem 8000 points for $10 off a purchase, or what most people do is save up 95000 and get $170 off (there's a few other tiers in between). sometimes shoppers has redemption events where you can get more value, so like 95000 points gives you $200 off or so.
that's basically how it works
also you can't redeem or earn points on gift cards
brehs, same here. but PM cisce first lol
Lmao. I was thinking the same thing.

All you pstv non-believers are now paying the price for your sins.
It's true. There were numerous occasions in which I was *this close* to buying too. Now that I have a real TV (bigger apartment) I actually have the desire for one. I didn't have a TV before (PS4 hooked up to my PC's monitor) but now that I do...

Why does everybody want the PSTV all of a sudden?
Going to that landfill to dig them out sure isn't fun.
just an FYI on this, EB Games will not take this card, they claim it's because it has your healthcare number on it
they'll only take a drivers license or passport

BC puts the health card number on the provincial ID? That defeats the purpose of it as ID.

what about the ontario id card?
Not a problem. I use it all the time at EB
The one I have is a "BC Services Card" - it's essentially my health card
BC also produces a combo health card / drivers license but I don't have a drivers license so I don't have that one
I'm curious about this as well

Sony doesn't send my $10. Amazon doesn't send me $10. When will it be my time!

they'll take a permanent residency card too
I was in a really bad spot financially during the PSTV sales. I nearly picked one up at the end of last year for $60 and couldn't bring myself to do it.
Don't know if it's the reason but iirc it was mentioned that remote play works much better with the PS4 pro.
Week 2 was always going to have different games, why wouldn't you buy the ones you wanted haha

Was holding onto the 20% coupon. I knew it was a gamble but I didn't want to waste it in case something better popped up this week.
Now I live in shame.
I'll take your code!

I still have stuff I can use it on. FFXV and SFV season passes will be mine. I also don't own Until Dawn. So at least there is that.
Last week i would have grabbed Divinity and EDF.
You live dangerously.
My mental list of games I'd like to buy only includes Axiom Verge, which is on sale until the new year. Not like I have a coupon anyway.
Oh damn, you missed out on Divinity? It was only $15!
What's on the season pass for 15?
That's good to know, but my Permanent Residency card doesn't leave my apartment unless I need it for travelling. I'm scared stiff of losing it
Oh ok it's not that complicated after all lol
Sadly someone told me that Pharmaprix has a different flyer than SDM and the U4 bundle is 380$ at pharmaprix (299$ at SDM)

Plans for character specific DLC missions and some multiplayer component. I am enjoying the game enough that I might as well go all in on it. Especially since I only paid $40.

There is actually some stuff I would get if Sony bothered to give me a 20% off code. I didn't get it on any of my PSN accounts.

are you trying through the webstore?
The Elite

Yes. With the 20% off code.

do it on your console
webstore does this to me quite often.
one solution if you definitely want to use the webstore is to buy psn codes through costco.ca. That's what I did during the black friday sale

I don't think it's the code. Just tried to buy Goat Simulator without the code and received the same error.
I will try on my home console later but I think this is that payment big that hits some people and their shit just stops working. I had it with a credit card once. No matter what I did PSN would not accept payments from that credit card. Seems to have happened to my paypal. I know it's happened to others as well.
Thanks. Seems to be my credit card too as I added that and tried it with the same error. Maybe it is Sony that locks something down for 24hours?
