So I wasn't looking at it for no reason. Will keep an eye out then for my boss.
Take screenshots! Lots and lots of screenshots.

There is no additional discount. You got the promo price applied automatically. That is it and is pretty amazing.
War has changed.

Thanks, ordered.
Why would you try and hurt us like that.
Yeah but 49.99$ today is 37 usd or 33 euros. That's cheap as fuck.
I wasn't sure someone would care so I almost didn't post it. I'm glad I did <3

Proof?
tried to post but my img isn't working, here's the direct URL: http://imgur.com/a/vC3ON
I should clarify that it shows the 20% in the order summary, but it doesn't show it on the item price, per usual.

sure!
that image does not show any 20% discount, only that your order's price updated. Go into the details and check if the total is 249.80$+tx or less.
Amazon updated their TOS I thought so that the 20% is only applied to the original listing price . Not any price drops.. Before they updated their terms I would get 20% off of the price drop price.
I've spoken to managers about it in a few games since they changed their stance.. Maybe someone on here remembers this and could link their stance as I have seen it in writing before

How is Walmart when shipping an order with 2 games that release a couple weeks apart...Will they wait until it's complete or ship them separately?
sure!
I meant in case Amazon tries to take away the discounts. They tend to do that if you get a Prime discount you're not supposed to. I got into a mini argument with them over Lego City Undercover Switch, but they eventually honoured the price error

What knacklover said.
You are correct. It's 20% off the MSRP. If there's a random drop before then, that comes off the total price of the Prime discount. So a $79.99 game will never be lower then $63.99 regardless of drops in price. The only time it will is if the manufacturer drops their MSRP.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is also back for PS4. For some reason, I can't find its own listing - you have to go to the Xbox page and manually switch the choice to PS4.

Spoke with CS and got them to manually apply the additional 20% discount to Spiderman, GOW, Days Gone, Death Stranding and Detroit based on ordering them last year during the E3 promo. A couple of failed attempts with chat but it worked like a charm via phone. Worth a shot if anyones determined and itching for more savings!

Have we heard anything from EB Games? I wonder what they have planned as Walmart and Amazon takes everyone's money.
More Funko Pops, of course.

So Crash is only 30$ on Amazon now? I had my order paid off with a gift card, now when Crash ships I will receive 15.72$ back.

In the last six? years of E3 deals, I don't think I remember a single EB Games offer. Expect nothing.

Probably nothing. Their computer systems would melt trying to track different final prices for people
If we're doing lists...
CoD (I doubt I'll want it, but worse case will sell easy on kijiji or something) edit:
trade-in for a spinner or two!
BF2 (gameplay pending)
FC5 (gameplay pending)
Detroit
Days Gone
GoW
RDR2 (same as CoD most likely)
Spiderman
Death Stranding

We don't worry about EB Games until two weeks after we beat our $49 games.

There's no drop on the Switch games?? That was the best part of the Walmart deals.
Probably suits them best too. This feeds them a lot of used games, which is what they want anyway.

What the what? PLAY THE GAME!!!
And no...GTA would not be an accurate comparison other then it being open world and from the same company.
CSR sweepstakes. Basically you keep on chatting a csr until you get someone to add the 20% discount.
One of the best best games of last gen. You need to play it ASAP
This is very YMMV. I've be able to do it a long time ago, but recently after like 6 people In a row, phone calls and supervisors I gave up
I should note that their own policy states it's 20% off The original listing price, not price drops.
