Some local rumors are circulating that this is a counter to WOW Superstore's closing down sales.

Mind you, I went into WOW the other day and still found items priced higher than competitors.

PC games are 'meh'. Can get them at good prices easy enough online.
However I haven't seen PS3 games at those prices for ages. Grabbed God of War and Uncharted Double pack :)

I went into the local wow store to find a copy of starcraft 2 the other week and most games were only 10% off the marked price. :shock:

Hopefully it's a "look at how many we can sell @ USD prices, instead of @AUD inflated prices" experiment..

So you have to pay online even if you want to get them from the store?

Postage is a flat rate $5.95 :icon14:

Just confirmed it, lol the 2 per person limit is also a joke :)

Postage isn't the issue, I simply don't have the means to buy things online, unless I get a friend to do it for me or something (i've done it before with Shadow Hearts off of ebay *shrugs*).

Whatever the reasons are I hope many peoiple take up this offer and show Harvey Norman that we don't give two cents who sells the game, just the price :wink:

You don't HAVE to buy online first - it's merely a good idea to make sure that what you buy is still there when you get to the store.

Case in point, bought Arkham City a couple of weeks ago. Was $39 on the website - $55 in store. Store was happy to match their online price - the ticket price didn't even scan in just went straight to the online price at the register.

I just punched in a few random numbers for the product quantity, I'm not actually making that order :P.

Was trying to see if flat rate postage existed, it seems to :icon14: :)

They will probably enforce the 2 per person limit sometime after that point.
Otherwise I would have bought more too.
