Best Wishes from Best Buy :no:o::no:o::no:o: i bought 7 titles for 35 bucks. i should have made the delivery option to store pick up:argh:h:. so the next day i asked for store pick up and the CSR said only two were available so okayed that. now (2 days later) i went to the store to ask abot the games and the CSR couldnt get my order she ask her supervisor he couldnt anything then his supervisor told the CSR to call bestbuy's support then she gave the phone to me and told me that my order was going to be canceled cuz of the error on the site. all this happened in an hr. i think some ppl got it through but BB is going to cancel the rest of the orders. the weird thing is my account on BB.com still shows its processing. i hope they go through before someone cancels em. come on who wants to miss such a great deal! edit: did anyone else got this deal by chance????
