Post your deals and pickups here
-
I can never seem to find any real worthwhile 'deals'. For as much attention this shit has been getting, they really have been slacking. Where's my ultra cheap as shit TVs and electronics? Waste of time.
-
All the deals seem worse this year. I'm looking to buy a new high quality basketball but only the crappy balls are on sale.
Last year, several chains have all balls at 50% off including the official NBA ball.
-
Pacific Rim BD is gonna be a lightning deal on Amazon at like 1:20am. I'll probs get that :yeshrug
Two things that I was looking for:
Dell Venue Pro 8 (I know it was on sale earlier this week, missed it).
Wii U
But I doubt any decent deals for these will occur.
-
What kind of TV were you looking to get?
There seem to be a bunch of deals if you're looking for smaller than 50" or even lower-end 50"

Not really looking for a TV per se. I'm just saying that the deals they DO have are all lame and boring. I thought the point of this was someone looks and is like "ohhhh fuuu crazy price!! how can i not buy?" I'm not getting that.

Costco has Dell Venue 8 Pro for $50 off,

You need to be a Costco member or something? Which costs money? >:(
-
Amazon had a pretty sick Receiver earlier. I probably should have got that... but I didnt because I don't have speakers to go with it.
-
You could get a refund for Costco membership easily.
They're not gonna make you return stuff that you bought.

is playstation charging for multiplayer now? what gives?
-
No, I just want the free monthly games really. I think $22-$30 is a good price that.
Edit: I've also been thinking about picking up Rocksmith PS3 while it's on sale on amazon for a few more hours and a cheapish Fender Strat+amp, but I think I'm gonna end up passing on both.
-
Yes, they are charging for multiplayer on PS4. You need PS+ otherwise, it's just an extra service for Vita/PS3.

Never heard of this brand but 55" 4K for $850 seems outrageous
-
If you just want a small tablet for cruising the internet and reading, that 7" Nook HD for $79 is a good deal. Really nice 1440x900 res screen, Bluetooth, microSD slot.

pretty good haul so far. only had to go out for the zelda bundle. woke up at 2:45 because i rarely sleep anyway. drank a cup of coffee and ran down to target. no standing in line bullshit - just walked in and out in less than 5. my daughter is a huge zelda fan and getting this, along with the hyrule historia book is going to make her christmas.
-
i got battlefield 4 for $20 to sate my multiplayer fps craving. unfortunately the game is a pos and wont even boot up no matter how hard i try. this is why i stick to pirating. hopefully i can get my money back.
-
Debating getting that Amazon Vita special... 33% off, comes with Walking Dead, Uncharted, Sly, and Retro City Rampage. No real interest in any of those games aside from Retro City but I've been meaning to pick a Vita up now that Ys is out.
-
Get PS+ with your Vita... it is a necessity. Especially at $30 today.
-
Got four of the $230 50 inch tvs from Target. Pacific Rim, Argo, The Hobbit, Batman Begins and TDKR on BRD. My wife got some boots, and some toys. The blu rays and the boots are the only things we got for ourselves so I hope our friends and family have a merry Christmas. 28 hours in ~30 degree weather. Woot woot?

-
PS Plus codes
Pacific Rim blu-ray
Saint's Row 4

yeah. Vita, PS3, PS4 (and PSP, if they still give out PSP games).
-
I regard this thing as yet another important thing the US has contributed to the world.
Thanks corporate catamites.
Joking! Or not.

$130 is a rip. You might as well spend $60 more for a new system, extra controller and several games.
-
XBLA was having a sale yesterday. Nothing insane, but I did get the Motocross Madness for $2.5 and Ron Gilbert Starring in DoubleFine's The Cave for ~$3.5.
There is a bunch of stuff on there, but a lot of it is second-chances at deals we've seen recently.
-
hey chrono, I was eyeing that Motocross Madness game. Does it have multiplayer? We should play it together!
-
Just a $30 PS+ code from Amazon. Fuck going places to buy things.
-
Nothing. I never buy anything on Black Friday.
-
i bought an ipad air. best buy had the wifi 32gb for $70 off.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YeGX0kk.jpg?3)
I also bought a crap-ton of $4 and $8 Blu-Rays from Bestbuy.com that I didn't feel like rooting around in a giant bin for like a savage.
-
My final lot:
Puppeteer PS3
Saints Row 4 360
3 yr PS+ (2 for me, 1 for muckhole due to GameStop being a fucktard)
ZombiU WiiU
Chocobo Mystery Dungeon Wii
Dragon Quest Swords Wii (GS had B2G1 used - so I took advantage while I was there with ZombiU)
Ryse
Battlefield 4 (TRU had B1G140% off, and someone I know wanted BF4, so we went half)

Nothing. I never buy anything on Black Friday.
No PS+?

Naw, I'm getting medicine later today.
I'll ask for a year of ps plus for xmas.
-
hey chrono, I was eyeing that Motocross Madness game. Does it have multiplayer? We should play it together!
Yeah, there is! That's a great idea. What's your timezone?
-
I'm kinda tempted by 50 years of Bond on Amazon. Tho I'm not really a big Bond fan.
-
so far i got mgs rising for $10, battlefield 4 for $20, and elder scrolls anthology for $30. pretty fukkin good
Where did you get the Elder Scrolls Anthology for that price? I saw it for $70 at Gamestop yesterday. Also, what is it? All 5 of the games in one pack I'm guessing?
-
got it on amazon for that price. looks like its still discounted.
its all 5 main games (first two run in dosbox) with all expasions, and it has like a leather case and some maps or something.
-

I'm GMT -8 in California. I guess it might be a little tricky to arrange an online game :-[ but we can try! My gamertag is startselect

There's a lightening deal on Amazon for it at 11:10CST, so probably 12:10 your time.
-
goddamn it, i bought that elder scrolls anthology last night because of positive touch's post and now it's 5 dollars cheaper :(
-
Fuck, I'll buy it for that even though I already have all the games. I love Bethesda collector shit, bought the Fallout 3 and NV CEs when they came out.
-

Never played any of these. Buying it.
-
Sweet, the only Elder Scrolls game I own is Oblivion so this is a pretty good deal. I don't know where the hell I'll find 500+ hours to play these games, but whatevs.
-
Hey Eel, sent you a DM. You can have my fancy box if you want, I just want the keys, really.
-
Thank you, but it's already in the now shipping status. I do appreciate it, though!
-
That Elder Scrolls Anthology looks real tempting but I already own every game. I wish they had gone with cloth maps instead. That would have made it a must-have.
-
I bought a few things, but most of it was all done online. I only went to my local bestbuy to drop off a piece of pie to a good person there.
2 PSN+ cards
2 $50 PSN cards for $25 each
The conjuring (gift)
Star Trek Into Darkness (gift)
The Great Gatsby (gift)
Beyond Two Souls $5 (gift)
Crunchyroll mega subscription (gift)
Patriot Fuel 9000 mAh battery pack
Makerbot V2 and visual scanner
not much this year in retrospect to years past, but thats probably cause there weren't a lot of good deals to be had.
-
Beyond for $5?
-
Beyond for $5?
Lightning deal for $25 and a promotional $20 off for trading in more than $30 worth of stuff.
I'll be honest I only traded in one copy of BF4 for 360 and I ended up with a PS4 controller, BF4 for XboxOne, Beyond Two Souls, and I still have credit left over. So one copy of BF4 that I got for $18.50 at Walmart lead to all of that stuff.
-
That's crazy. How much did BB give you for BF4?
-
Amazon gave me $33.22 for BF4 plus an additional $25 to upgrade to the XboxOne version as well as $30 towards a PS4 controller and the $20 off Beyond. The math doesn't add up, but that's on Amazon and not me. It was a great culmination of deals that lead to all of that.
-
I got a PSU for my PC because mine shit the bed, two PS4+ cards, that Elder Scrolls anthology, and the Pacific Rim DVD/Blu-ray/Digital thing because fuck it $6
-
Picked up some PS3 games from a local used game place:
Red Dead Redemption, inFamous 2, and Yakuza 3 for $20.
-
Said fuck it and ended up getting a guitar, stand, and amp from Guitar Center yesterday. Merry Christmas to me.
-
what kind of guitar and amp
-
http://www.guitarcenter.com/Epiphone-Les-Paul-Special-II-Electric-Guitar-100161340-i1149983.gc
This in a matte black for $89.99.
http://www.guitarcenter.com/Fender-Champion-20-Guitar-Combo-Amp-109156976-i3120265.gc
And this for $85.99 after using a 15% off coupon. I done good or nah?
-
:lol think i had basically the same amp when i started 20 years ago. both of those are 100% solid choices. the amp'll prolly give you more tinny sound but the guitar should have a little heaviness to balance it out. p

No
For that price, get a 3D monitor or wait for G-sync
Even if you don't use 3d, 120 hz is handy for an action gamer like you
For fast games, you can easily notice the different between 60fps and 120fps
-
Pacific rim, tales of xalalldllelwhatever, 3ds with fire emblem, zelda, megaten 4, and castlevania(15$), and the wire for my mom.

This was news to me:
http://lifehacker.com/get-a-refund-if-amazon-drops-the-price-on-an-item-you-j-1477228606
(http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/198h4ex00qf9gjpg/ku-xlarge.jpg)
Don't you hate it when you buy something only to see the price drop a few days later? Well, the good news is Amazon will refund you the difference—if you ask within the right timeframe.
Business Insider heard this tip from Reddit user poorsol and confirmed this unpublished policy with an Amazon rep, as the screenshot above shows. If the price drops within 7 days of the delivery date on an item that was shipped and sold by Amazon, just contact Amazon and they'll refund you the price difference. So now you can shop a little more confidently.
