That's kinda stupid from Best Buy.. They going to end up selling stuff at a loss with 60 days price match..

I don't buy anything from Best Buy anymore so I'm  going to loose my silver at some point...

All my stuff comes from Amazon these days...( I've started to read a lot of graphic novels and they are quite competitive in that field too).

Basically I buy graphic novels with deep discount on Amazon and those with low discount at my local comic store to support it... ( just got Watchmen paperback for 5.41$ + tax on Amazon, pretty good for 420 pages of the best comic book ever written.( it was a used like new of Amazon marketplace, to be truth it should have be graded very fine but still very good quality with no crease in the binding..).

There are comics sites with deeper discounts but they only work of pre-orders and they want you to make those 2 months in advance ( and when you add shipping you have to do bulk order for it to be cheaper).

By the way, just got Games of Thrones season 2 Blu Ray + digital code for 29.99$ on Amazon...


I haven't been finding many good game deals on Amazon lately as I used to.  The Best Buy Gamer Club $20 thing for new releases is a better deal, but since I don't buy new stuff that's not a huge deal, but between @gamer coupons and other random deals, Amazon hasn't been doing much to compete.  Hell, for Black Friday, all they could manage was to match other retailer pricing (which was convenient for some things, of course).

FWIW I got Game of Thrones S1 last year based on everyones recommendations, hated it and sold it for more than I paid for it.


Heretic ! Not liking Game of Thrones !!!

Well these days I get most of my games new for around 35-40$ on Amazon, I just wait that they have been released for 1 month or so and then the price drops. I have a big enough backlog that the wait isn't a problem.  

I quit Best Buy the day Amazon sent me a better credit card than the Best Buy one and I don't like how they started charging for the Gamer's club . Plus generally the stock at my local Best Buy has become terrible...

 

Anyway in the end I don't pay for any games as I use my reward on them and I have more than enough to cover my gaming needs  and still have leftover on the side for graphic novels or others purchases...( my comics/graphic novels budget is a lot bigger than my gaming one these days...)
