I bought the special edition + a .99 game (MADDEN rofl) and it only gave me a 25 CENT discount. I e-mailed game stop and hopefully I can figure out what is going on. Anyone else experience this? I'm having a near conniption because I wasn't planning on charging $100 to my card... Same thing happened to me. I am pretty annoyed. I can drive 10 minutes to get a beta key tonight, but I thought, "Hey, I'll order online and save some $, even if I have to wait an extra day or two for the beta key." When I was processing the order, it showed the correct total in the last step before I pressed the "Submit" button for the final time... then when the order receipt came up, it had a new higher total, which was with 25% only applied to the little extra item I bought to bump the order over $100. I am raging pretty hard, because now I can't figure out how to cancel the order completely. There's no option for it on the website, as far as I can tell. I've e-mailed them and I'm waiting for a response. Let me know if you hear anything on your end, I will do the same. sounds like you tried to play the playa but the playa played you.

To everyone else interested: I'm currently e-mailing and in contact with them as well, in hoping that I can get the discount. As soon as I get any contact about this I will let you guys know. Until then I can only hope I get this thing resolved.
It's not that I don't have $100 to spend, but I need/want to use it for other things and the whole point of getting the special version of SCII is for the stuff AND because of the discount. If I'm stuck with this wouldn't it be possible to sue for false advertising? I know it's not a healthy mentality but I'm kinda worried over this as well. Upon checking their site FAQ on preorders they don't have anything to mention about it there either. Hopefully this will get resolved nicely.

This is what I get for some much playa hating, I guess. Anyway, I called and they canceled it. Bummer. Time for a nice late afternoon drive to the mall.

Got a beta key from my local GameStop as well, just that the cashiers there was really clueless about the beta key showing up on the receipt when I showed it to them.
|
I went to EB today in Coquitlam Center, BC Canada. I asked if I could pre-order yet and the guy straight up said "Yeah, but we don't have anymore beta keys". Ah well, pre-ordered it anyways for $78, bloody expensive.

I preordered SC2 CE plus an old PS2 sports game to get the 25OFF discount, just got my beta key email and it worked.
