For those of us that are excited for Bravely Second End Layer SE, but don't know what the total package will look like, this is what we can expect:

• A 250 Page Artbook
• A 10-Song Soundtrack
• A Suggested Retail Price Of $69.99 (USD I think)

That's not all. There will be a demo released before the game too.

"A demo version of the game, Bravely Second: End Layer – The Ballad of the Three Cavaliers, will launch in the Nintendo eShop prior to the full game’s launch. This demo includes a unique story different than the one found in Bravely Second: End Layer, as well as new jobs and areas to explore. StreetPass tags and bonuses from the demo will also carry over to the main game."

Are you all familiar with best buys second turn auction site?

In the wake of the falling dollar, it's been my safe haven for deals.

Recent purchases:
iPad mini 3 32gb = $220
Apple TV 4th gen 32gb = $120
Early 2015 MacBook Pro 13" = $1000


All items are either demos or open box, but generally pristine condition.

I've seen ps4 ad Xbox one consoles sell for $220-40 fairly regularly. They have other tech too.

If anyone is interested in an invite, shoot me a PM with an email address and I'll get ya in.

I got an invite to that a couple years ago but can't remember the URL :LOL

Checked it once or twice and didn't see anything I liked.

Edit: Found it!

Even if it's $100 CDN, I think it's worth it for that artbook. The game is gonna be what, $55? Let's say another $5 for the crappy soundtrack and $40 for the 250-page artbook.

Eh, it's just another piece of crap to sit untouched on my shelf.

Well apparently my Prime Pre-order for Resident Evil Origins meant nothing to Amazon, because now it's out of stock. I would care, but I have a huge backlog and they gave me an extra $10 off my already 60% off game, can't complain. Just silly, why do I even pay for Prime.

 

[Xenoflare]

From my experience (5ish months) all vita games are at price parity with the states so unless something changes in the next few weeks it will.

We can only pray for the best. I won't be buying the Asian version from Play Asia since our dollar morphed into the peso. If the digital version is priced reasonably then I'll preorder. I want to support this game, I really do, but the cost for games is making that a real issue.

Cold Steel pleasantly surprised me with it's $40 PSN price instead of the $50 physical price, made the fact that EB failed to honor my preorder a bit easier to swallow.

My 64gb card should arrive by early next month, so I can finally kick back and not worry about stupid delays and the fact that no one sells vita games anymore in stores.

I ask myself that so often

lol I'm thinking "it all makes sense now"

Huh?

The joke is that UPS people does this a lot.

Edit: Or rather, you are always not home when they deliver your items, it's almost like they are actively avoiding you

 

[Ventara]

Well, duh, if artbooks aren't your thing, obviously it's not worth it.

 

[ohlawd]

Well, duh, if artbooks aren't your thing, obviously it's not worth it.

I bought that Persona 3 design artbook for $20, and I've only flipped through it once. been sitting on my shelf ever since

still worth it

For those messaging me about the Best Buy site. Be sure to include an email address.


They add new items every day on 4 day auction lengths. There is always something new.

Standard eBay rules apply: bid in the last 10 seconds or else you'll likely be paying more than you want lol

 

[Renewed]

Well, duh, if artbooks aren't your thing, obviously it's not worth it.

For me it usually depends on the quality of the artbook along with the content it may have. I skipped the XenobladeX Special Edition just so I could save my money and go for the Secret File artbook which ran me $45. Although that was fine because the game itself was $15.

250 page artbook for Bravely Second, I'm already in

 

[Xenoflare]

Yeah Wtf the art book in the Bravely Default SE was thin as hell.

I wanna register. What's this access code they speak of? Is it membership Identification a number or the code or the 24 digit code below the bar code on my Reward Zone membership card?

 

[ohlawd]

I hope we get 100 pages of Magnolia, 100 pages of Edea, 45 pages of Agnes and 5 pages of the other people

You shouldn't need one if your using my invite link from the email they send you.

Send me a pm with your email addy and it'll go smoother.

 

[Renewed]

edit: thanks amazon lol

Wasn't the difference for the editions $10 back then? I guess it'd be fine to not expect the world of that old artbook. And then it included the AR cards. Did we get that horrible figure? I don't think so.

I hope we get 100 pages of Magnolia, 100 pages of Edea, 45 pages of Agnes and 5 pages of the other people

Solid priorities

 

[killroy87]

Wait Odin Sphere and Bravely Second in the same week, what did I do to deserve this

Isn't Odin Sphere June? Or am I nuts?

 

[DrEvil]

Alright I've sent invites to everyone who messaged me with their email addresses.

Enjoy. I hope you find some good deals, and you bastards better not outbid me on things. This is one of the best little secrets on the Internet.

Amazon's release date screwed me up then, whoops

I canceled 3 copies too. Lol wtf

I fully expect coming in this thread tomorrow just to realize that I missed the FE Fates n3DS XL, just like it happened with the Pokemon BRY n3DS.

 

[Xenoflare]

It doesn't come with the game and it's a new unit launching in the "new and improved" CDN

Speaking of horrible purchases involving the New 3DS, this went up on Amazon France and I bought it: http://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B01AM6O548/

 

[jred2k]

Has anyone here ever bought a Hulu subscription off of eBay? I'm just wondering how well it works and if anyone can recommend a particular seller.

 

[MarkusRJR]

So is it just me or has Best Buy's website been broken since Boxing day? Tons of images are missing, sometimes product pages go into a text only view, weird glitches, etc.

What the fuck is up with that? It's been almost a month and it's honestly gotten worse rather than better. It's embarrassing a company of this size has such a broken website.

How does importing from them work? Any customs/duty?

 

[Firestorm]

How does importing from them work? Any customs/duty?

It charged me 3 EUR customs and 12 EUR shipping. Did an order for two so my friend and I could combine shipping. It removes VAT for those outside Europe so it came to 12.50 EUR each subtotal. 40 EUR in all so 65 CAD ($32.50 each).

Just pm the gaffers in the bst thread that sell codes. They should be able to get you one for face value.

 

[knacklover]

How much trouble would i have trying to resell my Pokemon n3DS for the same as what i paid for it?

I'm not sure if i want to keep it yet, as I'm worried it may come with the new firmware and I'd like to be able to downgrade it so i can install custom firmware.

Does Amazon take returns on opened electronics? I'd hate to cancel it and then not be able to get it if it does end up on an older firmware.

You should have no problems returning opened electronics to Amazon, they just resell them as warehouse deal, I believe.

Also 3DS are not "factory sealed", the box can be opened without breaking anything.

 

[The Elite]

omg

This has been a thing at my apartment lately. The package will be sitting but the driver will be nowhere to be found. We're on the 14th floor. I answer the door after one knock. How is he disappearing so quickly.

Fucking master class.

The woman he dropped off my package yesterday waited until I answered. Rookie level.

Wish I had given the first game more of a chance. Story sounded great but I didn't like the gameplay.

 

[terrible]

The last time UPS delivered something for me the driver was already in the truck by the time I opened my door even though I rushed to answer it. A+ ninja skills.

 

[JRBechard]

Anyone know where I could find white n3ds cover plates? Can't find any on Ebay or Amazon. I managed to pre-order the pokemon n3ds when it went up on amazon, if anyone wants to trade

I'm definitely pre ordering it even if it's like 400 CAD.

I haven't had to pay more than $25 for a Far Cry game, and I sure as heck ain't paying more for this one.

[The Elite]

I just ordered Evangelion 3.33 yesterday and it's fine and I am getting free shipping.

I am a little confused by your post.

 

[ReddishGUI]

So it seems Movies, Music and Books are no longer available from Amazon.ca

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/site-directory/ref=nav_shopall_btn

If you search for and find Movies, Music or Books it will come up with items that say "Sold by Amazon.ca" that DO NOT qualify for free shipping and are actually sold by Amazon.com through the Amazon.ca site (and shipped to the Amazon.ca depot in Canada by Amazon.com and then forwarded to you.)

This is a huge change and means I won't be buying any media from them any longer. Chapters and Best Buy will be getting my business I guess.

What the hell are you talking about...?

The king of cheap beers

Next time you're down in Bellingham the price of it in their grocery stores will make you sick. Likely around $20 USD for the same 36 pack

Anyone know what price The Witness will be on Canadian PSN? Probably going to wait on a price cut on that one
