There is no gamers club in Canada
:ohhh:Is that right?
You wouldn't even be able to sign up and have it shipped to your house?
Is your whole family in Canada? I swear I would have worked something out where I would get a family to sign up for me and ship the games to me if I didn't have any other option.
(I never lived outside of the US. I'm curious how it works elsewhere)

Yeah my family is in Canada.

shyt sucks. Dollar in the toilet. With the dollar so low it's not worth buying shyt in the states.

Amazon prime is garbage here too. States you get prime shipping,music,video service etc.

Canadian prime literally all you get is 2 day shipping none of that other shyt. That recent pre order deal with prime you don't here either. Yet they charge the same price :beli:

I still use amazon, but nowhere near as much as before. I basically just use it for shyt i cant get locally. When it comes to electronics, best buy has been killing it. So far, ive gathered almost a hundred dollars of gift certificates just by shopping there halfway through the year. They ship fast too unlike amazon who seem to prioritize new customers to gettheir business.

I should have this somewhere to copy and paste by now as many times as I've said it on here. Amazon prime is fine if you're interested in buying stuff online other than video games. If your main interest is video games Best Buy Gamers Club unlocked is hands down the best deal and there's no debating it. Here are the reasons:

2 year membership costs $30 so if you buy 3 games in 2 years the membership pays for itself. It blows my mind how many people on here talk about games all day and don't have a membership. You mean to tell me you (not you specifically) post all day about video games and don't even buy at least one game a year?

20% off every new (unopened) game regardless how long it's been out. That means brand new games cost $48.

A lot of big games come with a $10 preorder bonus credit that you can use on your next purchase.

They price match every major retailer.
Picking up locally is a no brainer but of course you have the option to ship.

To use the membership all you have to do is provide your phone number. This means you can do what I do, and let all your friends and family use your membership. You get one point for every dollar spent on your account. Since I have a bunch of people that use my membership I stay stacking up gift certificates throughout the year. I get at least 2 free brand new games a year on release day doing this. And almost always have at least a $5 gift certificate on deck for every game I buy. Points stack with anything purchased at Best Buy too not just video games.

I stopped shopping at GameStop because 9 times out of 10 I can get a game brand new, cheaper at Best Buy than I can get used at GameStop. Of course there's exceptions with game stops $5 games on a list, but most people know those games are either trash, or they've been out forever.

Amazon pissing me off lately

I pre ordered a game paid for release day delivery.

It was supposed to be here last Tuesday won't be here until next week. Talked to 7 different reps and none of them can give me a fukking answer. Had to pry nails just to get my shipping refunded.


Then I cancelled an order that hasn't shipped. Then I look at my cc and see they're holding the money for authorization. I talk to them and their like talk to the cc company we didn't charge you.

Talk to the cc company who tell go to amazon and tell them to reverse the authorization.

Talk to amazon again who tell me talk to cc.

Like what the fukk. You can tell the cc company to hold the money but can't get them to release it? fukk outta here

Bro, it's an authorization. It would disappear off your statement in 1-3 days. Is this your first time using a credit card?

P.S there's a work around OP, preorder an item it is scheduled to be shipped/released in a couple of weeks/months along with the Add-on item. The add-on item will ship first, so after it ships cancel the preordered item.

It's held for 14 days. We don't live in the same country so don't assume you know what you're talking about.

shyt has been on there since June 24th

I wish I could juat purchase gamers club unlocked without buying a game. Oh well ill just have to work it into my budget.
