Why is it newsworthy that Chinese Democracy has been lowered to this? Title: Re: CD on sale at Best Buy Post by: ecwfan on December 21, 2008, 10:49:36 PM Its X-Mas time ....Best Buy is making a final run to get as many X-Mas shoppers as possible. They know with returns and all....they can sell a lot this week coming.

I cleaned out the rack at my local Best Buy (bought the last 5 copies displayed as stocking stuffers). I'm sure they simply rolled out a fresh new batch as soon as I left... but damn did it feel good. :peace: Everyone go stock up one more time before the Holidays hit!!! :beer: Title: Re: CD on sale at Best Buy Post by: russtcb on December 22, 2008, 07:30:30 AM Many 'new releases' sell for this price. Why is it newsworthy that Chinese Democracy has been lowered to this? Not sure. I also don't get the "knew this would happen" attitude. I see new releases coming out at $7, $8 and $9.99 every week. CD has been at $13.99 for weeks. I've been thinking about buying Tropic Thunder on Blu Ray. It's been at $27.99 for weeks so I held off. I saw yesterday that the price is now $24.99. At no point did I think anything bad about the movie. I just assumed it was on sale to move more units like everything else in America near Christmas.

Title: Re: CD on sale at Best Buy Post by: Jimmy? on December 22, 2008, 01:52:02 PM i paid ?9.71p in tesco on the day it was released. This is USA though that the OP is talking about, i paid about a tenner in UK. $9.99 brings it to about ?6.70-ish which is pretty cheap for a new release. Title: Re: CD on sale at Best Buy Post by: FunkyMonkey on December 23, 2008, 01:24:56 AM reminds me I should pick up a couple more copies for holiday gifts this week. I just bought a few more to give as gifts to some friends who aren't necessarily GNR fans. I'm looking forward to hearing their take on it...but I'm sure they will enjoy it. :) Title: Re: CD on sale at Best Buy Post by: GNR4L on December 23, 2008, 01:29:36 AM 9.99 is common with Best Buy and their CD prices. I picked up a copy for my uncle for christmas. Its pretty cool they moved the display over in the middle of the laptops and digital camera's were alot of people shop there besides TV's.

Upon its release, I bought the compact disc Chinese Democracy for $11.99 USD. And with tax, it came out to $12.98. But the long-playing vinyl has been at the same price every week. |
