- maybe it's the principle of the matter? -- nm - prayformojo Sep 15, 10:35
But... its at your house. -- nm - TFox Sep 15, 10:30 15
- Back to my movie theater analogy, I see. If you pre-paid for a seat on premiere night, and the theater turned you away, would you want to go back? -- nm - Beryllium Sep 15, 10:31 4
  - well, that would require some effort. if they brought the movie to my house, i'd watch it. -- nm - TFox Sep 15, 10:33 1
    - What if you bought a VIP ticket at Disney World, that said you get to move to the front of the line for the extra $80. - JaxSean Sep 15, 10:46
  - absolutely. it's not like there is anything special about premiere night. The movie (or game) isn't any different from what it was yesterday - decline Sep 15, 10:32 1
    - there's something special about a guaranteed service that you've already paid for, that the company fails to deliver. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 15, 10:34
- Amazon's done pissed me off. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 15, 10:31 9
  - So no joy on the phone call? -- nm - oblique Sep 15, 10:34 8
    - I'm not sure of the point. - JaxSean Sep 15, 10:36 7
      - but as a Prime member, its pretty easy to let your wallet do the talking without putting yourself out further. - TFox Sep 15, 10:39 4
        
        I don't think I'd be out further, other than the $60 until they receive it and refund. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 15, 10:41 3
        
        plus the new $60 for the new game, plus your time, plus giving money to Best Buy who are not better than Amazon. -- nm - TFox Sep 15, 10:43 2
        
        At least go to Gamestop :) -- nm - oblique Sep 15, 10:43 1
        
        They don't have the $20 promotion anymore - Best Buy does. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 15, 10:48
      - I guess it's all a matter of what compensation you want. Some would say they'd be happy with $5 off or $10 off or something like that - oblique Sep 15, 10:37 1
        
        I just can't figure a price tag for the principle. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 15, 10:42
