Anyone going to NCIX? What time you guys going??

rJZx 12-25-2011 07:09 PM

anyone going to livestock?

TjAlmeida 12-25-2011 07:21 PM

Any thoughts on the Samsung 51" 3d 1080p 600hz plasma at bb/fs for 699?

Asked the guy if I should line up, but he said I shouldn't need to and I can just show up at 6am for store opening and I should be fine. I don't know if I should believe him.

you didn't miss out much...pretty much the same titles @ same pricing every year on boxing day...

so maybe it's $2-3 more the rest of the year too.

I will be waking up at 6:45 tmr to rape my F5 button:smug:

Sennheiser Headband Headphones (HD228) - White - Web Only : On-Ear Headphones - Future Shop

I just bought them, thanks for the link haha. Been looking for some cheap ones. Would've preferred non-white ones, though.

I purchased a refurb of the early 2011 over a month ago for $980. To me $999 for a brand new one is a good deal. If you compare the specs on the early vs late 2011 models for 13" then differences are negligible. If you do the same comparison for the 15" model that is a different story.

I say pull the trigger and get the $999 one. Also pickup up some extra RAM, 8GB for around $50.

Not worth fighting the crowds then? Going shopping with some other people, trying to decide what mall(s) to go to..so many in Vancouver. So far Coq. Centre looks kinda promising.

SkinnyPupp 12-25-2011 09:27 PM

Anyone know if I'd be able to get Skyward Sword cheap somewhere?

Dunno about any of the other locations but I've done the Langley location for the past couple years. Both years in a row we lined up at FS to buy a couple door crashers then made our way to NCIX. Even though we got there a couple hours prior to the store opening, we were still roughly 15-20th in line.

Richmond/Vancouver might be different, however.

spoon.ek9 12-25-2011 09:41 PM

ShadowBun 12-25-2011 09:51 PM

I want to say something so badly but it'll probably make me sound like a hypocrite... :lol

:suspicious:

Gerbs 12-25-2011 10:04 PM

Heading off to Visions and Lansdowne BB/FS tomorrow
Hopefully I can get a pair of turbine copper/gold for under 200. Missed out on the $99 coppers :(

I talked to Livestock on friday and they confirmed that it will be the same boxing day stock as past years. Basically its all of the sale and clearance stuff that is not usually on the sales floor, they will be giving more mark downs and some flat rates (ie, tees for $20, kicks for $50, $80, $100). Some of the stock is more recent while others are left overs from years past.... Still worth a look if you want some "new" gear.

Staples has the normal X-Box for 99.99 I believe? Unless it was a typo.

And I doubt they will sell out any time soon. Every single store that sells Xbox or PS3s are selling at the same price.
