Default Re: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

1 month 8 days later. Unfortunately, 1 week too late as I got mine for $161...but then again I also got 2 steam copies for free ($59.99). All of this for $100 is a grand-slam deal saving $60 (with tax) (49 + $12 tax).

Also @Matrix, don't be too quick to say "Ouch" it's not a big dent from $149 to $100. Maybe if it was 49.99 that's definitely painful. As I saw, you bought Old Republic CE, but this will just drop in price even more (since you imported yours). Newegg, Best Buy (in stores), Walmart (in stores), Kmart, QVC ($10 more expensive) stocked 20+ of these... Of course the price people have to wait for paying a few dollars less (say $50 at best case scenario ever) is waiting until next year...If history shows us one thing, this will drop in price as well.

In my opinion, as a collector, if you want something (especially a MMO that is so time dependent unlike Skyrim or singleplayer games), it's best to just get it now. In the end you save $50, but it's as if you just pay $1 a day to get it earlier. Besides, it's not like you aren't already paying $14.99 a month anyways for the game for however long you play it...

Titles like this I severely doubt will drop to $79.99 like Killzone 3 from 129.99 (which was also $50 at most and $60 drop at other retailers without tax). I can see Old Republic at $95-$99 at most price-drop wise unless it really remains on shelves THAT long.
