While I completely get what you're saying and, to an extent, agree, as a matter of principle GAME really need to stop selling unsealed copies as "new", which happens far too often. Not to the extent that I hear of with, say, Grainger Games, but it's still fairly commonplace.

Mine arrived today. Literally second hand. Even has the second hand seal on it. Not happy I'm contacting customer services about it.

Surely you HAVE to be joking right? We are getting the game at less than one third of the regular price and you would complain about condition of the box? I'd understand if the disc was damaged and you couldn't play but really just cos of a missing seal you would have to pull off anyway if you wanted to play it. (shock)
Mine came today. Clearly been opened and had game's sticker on it but once I had removed the sticker it looked like new apart from the missing seal, so very good condition if second hand, could have been a ex demo store copy or something since there was no wear I could discern at all....

Took over a week to get here but it finally came. Game's pre-owned though :disappointed:

Still not even sent here. Guess ill have to get in touch with them tomorrow :disappointed: didn't want to have to contact them in case it alerts them to the potential misprice but its taking too long now as ime game usually sends within 24 hours...

Just got mine, came looking preowned. Not shrink wrapped and cases looking rather tatty, either second hand or been out in a game store and got battered.

Anyone else waiting for dispatch still? Got my two orders in on 18th and they are still saying unshipped now. Hope they haven't decided they aren't going to honour these after all.
Also anyone actually received theirs yet? If you can post an image of it that would be handy so I can point out some orders have been honoured, in case they decide they don't want to send them afterall.....

How rude...
joanddan7
18 Jul 17#52
yeah, I don't actually think this is as mind blowing as the mafia glitch... but still cracking not often you see the current years version of a game down to 4.99 brand new...
I don't think I have seen any really... Battleborn doesn't count.
Wilsh88
18 Jul 171#51
Oh yeah i remember that price, was thinking like £4.99 price
Here and here too. Pretty much as is with this thread.

18 Jul 17#47
Now showing as £23.00 ???
ST3123 to dudtwo
18 Jul 17#48
Yep. If you look underneath it shows it's by a third party seller. Once the Game stock (at £4.99) is gone it defaults to a third party seller. Best thing is to keep checking on it as you can since it seems to come and go quite often. thats how I managed to get two this morning, despite missing it when originally posted last night...

Battleborn/Overwatch & WRC5/Dirt were comparisons in a comment. Overwatch and dirt havent price glitched im afraid.
ST3123 to Wilsh88
18 Jul 17#44
DIRT absolutely has in the past, was the Steelbook edition on PS4 if I remember rightly, though it wasn't very recent so most ppl probably forgot....
ST3123
18 Jul 17#42
someone else mentioned earlier in the thread, Battleborn and
Overwatch, then WRC 5 esport and DiRT. I remember seeing DIRT a few times myself
but missed it each one, got battleborn a few times though and the earlier Mafia
3 Deluxe one but that was different to these as it ran for quite a long time
(think it was the weekend so probably no one monitoring it) but didn’t keep
popping up like these smaller deals/glitches. Have never seen the Overwatch one
myself but if it was these kind of price it would have been an absolute steal…

18 Jul 17#41
Which games?
ST3123
18 Jul 17#40
Just a quick update. It came back in briefly this morning and I was able to order one this time (party) Sadly showing oos again now but it seems like the other game pricing glitches to be recurring so if you really want it well worth checking the site throughout the day....
EDIT: actually IS showing in stock now, had to refresh the page a few times but was able to order a second....

I haven't played 6, but it's meant to be aimed more at the hardcore racer and loses any attraction that 5 had, which I do own (digitally:() and is barely worth that.

17 Jul 17#37
Fair enough

Nope this WRC6 has been £4.99 a few times... normally OOS quickly thou

17 Jul 171#33
Think that was WRC5 esports edition, I nearly bought at 4.99 and heard it was awful.
ed1980
17 Jul 171#32
Ordered 20 for eBay and have also phoned customer service to let them know the price is wrong....
Mikey1610
17 Jul 17#22
Definitely a misprice. Do game normally honour cock ups?
ST3123 to Mikey1610
17 Jul 17#25
Yes, absolutely IME, they honoured the HUGE Mafia 3 Deluxe Misprice they made last year albeit only one per customer and that was easily on the scale of this, more I'd say as it was a MUCH bigger name game than this one. Pretty sure those lucky enough to get in orders will get one.
Sadly just missed it, still showing £4.99 but won't let me add it :disappointed: If anyone got a spare they don't need I'd gladly take it off their hands for the same price....
ed1980 to Mikey1610
17 Jul 17#31
Not a misprice, game have had this at £4.99 a few times over the last few weeks
ST3123
17 Jul 17#30
Definitely gone now, defaults to the over-priced third party seller now :disappointed: Can't believe I missed this, was away from the site for literally half an hour and a stonker like this comes and goes....

Had 39p of reward points so it came to £4.60 in total. Used to love playing the old WRC games on the PS2, it'll be great to return to the series :smiley:
