Hey Bore, I want to get the Collector's Edition of GTAIV for the 360, since if I'm going to get that game might as well get a kick-ass lockbox with it too, especially considering that brand new, the CE costs only $60.

Here's the problem: no GameStop or Game Crazy near me has any more new CEs. Does anybody live near a GS or GC with a CE left? I'll PayPal the money + shipping over if you pick it up just so I'm like, guaranteed a copy. I live in Southern California.

To anybody who might be in the position to help me, I will NOT default on this, so, help me out please

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #182 on:** February 05, 2010, 04:14:24 PM »

I think the Fred Meyer in the town where I work actuall has one or two GTAIV CEs left...

I'll go look.

The Fred Meyer has three copies of the GTA IV CE (360) on clearance for $59.97 each. Let me know if you're interested and I'll pick it up.

It's a shitty pic (stupid phone), but this is my haul for the last week or so:

-Glory of Heracles

-Star Ocean: Second Evolution
-16gig Zune HD

I definitely am interested, but is it alright that I pay you next week? I'm somewhat strapped for cash, but will have money soon.

Thank you so much for even looking.

EDIT: Also, how much you think shipping will cost from WA?

EDIT: Nvm I can probably pay you as soon as you get it, just connecting my checking account to my PayPal.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #188 on:** February 05, 2010, 07:16:01 PM »

I'll pick it up for you on Monday, I'm home in Seattle and won't be going back down there until Monday for work.

Dont use your special armor code, sell that on ebay you can get at least $30 if you are lucky.

Wanted to get it before the price went back up since everyone says it is good if you stick with it.

Amazon is awesome. Trust Amazon. Love Amazon.

Sorry it didn't work out, I was stunned when the gal I spoke with told me that they sent the CEs back to a warehouse. Going through Amazon will probably end up being cheaper for you (free shipping, no tax, etc.).

Every time I get something outta Amazon the product is in dismal shape and the shipping takes like 10 years. I dunno, whatever. Probably will go through them as they're the most viable option at this point.
