Yeah, that would be nice. Here's the thing.... Shippings free if you order $25 or more. Plus you dont pay for tax. You could have snag two 1600 points cards and have saved $8.04, figure in tax, and you'd have save about $10 or a free 800 point Arcade game. I went for the 4000 point card. It cost me $39.87 Thats a saving of about $10.12 plus around lets say another $2.50 for tax (If your sales tax is only 5%, round here its like 6 or 7 %) Total savings = $12.62 off retail. In comparison, 10% off retail price of $49.99 = $4.99 (Plus you probably pay the full sales tax, so we'll call it a savings of $2.49 Clearly the Amazon deal was the much better deal. Unfortunately...It's over. Gotta be quick. I'll let you know next time I see them on sale. EDIT : Actually they are still offering the 4000 points cards for sale at $39.97 (Check under the alternate "used & new" link.) Unfortunately they aren't in stock and it says 3 - 5 weeks to ship.

yuppicide Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) Both 1600 and 4000 still show on sale and in stock. I hope they are there tomorrow I'll pick up some. I'm going to need them for all the Rock Band 2 song downloads. Edited September 25, 2008 by yuppicide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
