Happened to me for ni no kuni. I F5'd until it said 50 bucks, then went to my order page and it said 72.

Then I tried again just now by deleting and readding instead, and My ORders says it's 54 bucks.

Actually it's looking like you're right, at least in my experience. Refreshes haven't been working --- it keeps showing up as $72 in orders, and now removing from cart and re-adding totally still works. Just got Ni No Kuni II that way.

Here's what I found works: If it doesn't show up, update, delete and then re-add the game to your cart. Repeat until it shows up.

If the double discount doesn't show up, change the quantity to 0. This will bring you to the page where you can add the games to your cart. Repeat this process untill successful. I was able to get ARMS, Splatoon 2 and XB2 for $50 each using this.

Awesome to hear - what do you use it with?

I think its time to move on from my old Macbook Pro (non retina) & Thunderbolt display setup....just got the 2016 macbook on the cheap cause of the new model, I am wondering if you have the same computer or similar computer and how it runs on this display?

Good to hear though. Looks like newegg and amazon have them in stock, but newegg is a bit cheaper.

Hopefully they're still in stock next week when I am able to order!

MacBook Pro, PC and my PS4. It's the nicest display I've ever used and came very well calibrated straight out the box. I'm very happy with it.

I must be lucky, both Splatoon 2 and Xenoblade 2 worked on first try.

Oh weird, Splatoon 2 only has one discount on my order page.

What the hell black magic are you people performing? Can you post clear steps? Changing quantities kicks me back to the cart screen with no items, re-adding from there and checking out again doesn't do shit.

That's exactly what you do. It can take many tries. ARMS took me at least 25 tries. I got Fire Emblem Warriors in like 2 tries, and Xenoblade 2 took about 10.

1) Add $79.99 game to cart.
2) Proceed to checkout. If it shows $72.31 (or equivalent in province's taxes), hit Change Quantity, Delete.
3) Hit Move to Cart on the Saved for Later item.
4) It should either show $54 or $72. If it shows $72, go through steps 2 and 3 again until it works!

Got FF7 in the bag. All you have to do is keep deleting the item at the last page and then "move to cart" under the "saved for later" list, checkout, repeat until discount shows up at checkout.

Damn, this is glitchy as fuck. FEW on the first try, still nothing for ARMS or Valkyria Revolution (yeah I know I know shaddup).

This is the process I was following, for anyone else trying. It does work, it's just really random.

Yup, can confirm changing quantity to 0, moving back to cart, and repeating worked for Splatoon 2! No luck with Dissidia NT so far but it's a good sign!

Top = Splatoon 2 order that was deleted and re-added.

Bottom = Splatoon 2 order that was F5'ed, showed 54 at checkout, but was really 72 on order details.

lol so far I've only been able to get this to work for Destiny 2, but nothing else. I don't even feel bad for doing this since I feel like Prime members SHOULD be getting something extra.

Does this work for RDR2 and KH3? They are already at the double stack discount prices.

Only if you refresh for glitch on confirmation page, if you add to cart, remove it and re-add works.

My invoices on Amazon says: Grand Total: CDN$ 54.23



Nope. Only 79.99 games so far.

Didn't someone get it on Radiant Historia?

Splatoon 2
ARMS
Fire Emblem Warriors
YS VIII (PS4)
Xenoblade 2

Great stuff!

Will probably try FFVII now.

So, considering it could take a long ass time for FF7 Remake to come out, will we have to continue being Prime members for the double discount to be honored, or will it keep the Prime discount even if I don't subscribe in say.. 2-3 years when that game actually drops?
