PREOWNED - [X1/PS4] FIFA 17, For Honor, Battlefield 1, Witcher 3 GOTY - $8 Each. [Wii U] Splatoon - $11. Plus More @ EB

790

Possibly a price error but there's a lot of games on the cheap at EB this morning. All are preowned, so if you are getting them posted be aware that you could get a generic box. Still for these prices, not sure it matters.

For free shipping, refer to this deal. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/304597 Might be a nice thought to give a buck or two to charity if you use it, even if it's not through EB. Or not.

In Store

Online/ Able to be delivered

Good luck!

EDIT: The prices have been adjusted as of about 8am this morning on EB's website. What appears to have happened is that the price reduction was accidentally advertised as the actual sale price. Eg FIFA 17 was reduced by $57 to $8 whereas it should have been reduced by $8 to $57.

The good news is that EB have/ are honoring pick up in store orders at the mistaken prices and online orders appear to be proceeding that way as well.

  • Thanks will check it out!

    Thanks OP. Nice prices especially Halo Wars 2 for $21 and For Honor $8.

  • I dunno if the store clerks will sell it for these prices or not until I go in and try… Otherwise might just he a time waster trip

    • I just bought a few on line. Fingers crossed. Probably will be cancelled but worth a try!!

      • Can't checkout online for some reason

        • I signed into my account and worked ok. I used paypal to pay.

        • @Jase2801:
          PayPal has never worked for me says missing information or something, I tried checking out with uncharted 4 but it failed on my mastercard, removed it and Kingdom hearts 2.8 and for honor went through just fine.

          I'm half spewing because I know I'll get a generic case… But didn't wanna go in stores just for the clerk to call head office to confirm or whatever -_-

        • @Zeral: It looks like you may need to update your paypal details in order for it to work. Hopefully this deal is honored.

        • @Jase2801: I went to buy something the other day and at checkout I was amazed there was no PayPal option.
          I'm anti-creditcard so I could not pay.
          Could anyone tell if I'm missing something?
          Cheers

        • @Zeral: yes i had similar error so i turned off one touch login on paypal put the order through and now it is shipped…. :) very happy as with my past few orders with EB has been cancelled and i was reluctant to put another order with EB. now also kicking myself because i didnt order FFXV and Gravity rush 2.

  • +8

    Thanks OP. Now the cancellations begin.

    • +3

      I remember jb cancels price errors… But maybe these are suppose to be TRADE-IN prices and not purchase prices

      • +1

        Makes sence since the prices are dirt cheap.

    • Well….They honored my collection. Just collected then. Awesome!

  • Looks like PS4 FIFA 17 and Bf1 are already gone.

    • They seem to have flipped over to In-store only unfortunately. Must be going fairly quickly.

      • Yeah I noticed that, cheers.

  • Missed out on witcher but grabbed for honor for $8! thanks op

    edit, witcher is available in some stores still but nothing close to me :(

  • +1

    Can't imagine this not being a pricing error. I grabbed Kingdom Hearts 2.8 all the same. Hoping if I only buy one game, maybe it will slip under the radar. Probably not but worth a try.

  • +5

    I'm guessing the mistake made was for the $8/$11 games, those figures were probably what the game was meant to be reduced from its base price. So KH2.8 at $11 from $68 is probably meant to be $57. For Honor would also then be $57 which is 8 down from 65. So when they update the prices, no bargains to be had. Too bad.

    • +1

      Yep this seems to be the case. All of the prices have been corrected to $47/$57/$67.

    • Looks like you're spot on, mate.

  • Any PC game deals?

    Managed to order For Honor pickup
    See what happens

      Received email saying it is ready for pickup. I can't get there until tomorrow so hopefully will still get it

      • +4

        You are playing with fire, my friend

        • Are people still boycotting 'For Honour'?

          Last I heard people were very enthusiastic about that game, but it was plagued with issued and UBisoft wanted to just cash'n run.

          Not sure it's worth spending time on.

  • +9

    Probably an error but I ordered for honor anyway. I also just donated to Starlight. I can say firsthand that they do pretty amazing work for sick kids in hospital.

    • +1

      And just got an email to say that my order is on its way. Pretty chuffed.

      Good luck with that.

          Hell is going to freeze over before the average OzBargainer understands sarcasm.

    • can you do that online? I do commerce at school and price errors on price tags at retailers are an "invitation to treat" and can be denied at the counter. I'm not sure how it works online though.

      • Yes i can make a sarcastic comment online. I often make them IRL too.

    Guys… Looks like it's over…
    Battlefield 1 has gone back up from $8 to $65.
    https://ebgames.com.au/ps4-206166-Battlefield-1-preowned-Pla…

    And updated again to $57

  • Show full price in checkout

  • Price just jumped - for honour now $65 in cart just as about to confirm order. Be careful.

  • I was just about to press the confirm order button and the price jumped back to $65! :P

  • It has been fixed.

  • Prices revised

  • Aaaand price is back to normal.. thank god ibought kingdom hearts and for honoured online just in time

    • +4

      It's not over yet till it gets into your hands and I've bought the same things :x

    • +5

      EB has a history of cancelling orders, so it is very unlikely they will honour that price.

  • Thanks Ops, ordered some for delivery and in store pickup.
    Hopefully won't be cancelled for price error.

    • Email received saying order is ready for pickup in store.
      Looks like if you ordered for pickup, it is being honoured.

  • +1

    Managed to get For Honor. Expecting a pricing error email soon

  • Definitely price error - had For Honor in my cart for in-store pickup and when I logged in to PayPal the price changed to $65.00. Went back to the site and the same thing happened.

  • Looks like the discounted amount was the actual price. Ie Wildlands was $31 but now shows a discount of $31.

  • I received a confirmation email for Honored on PS4 with delivery…. See what happens

  • Just got in about 15 mins ago with For honour. I selected in store pick up.. lets hope i get it.

  • +1

    Thanks OP. Picked up For Honour for the PS4.

  • It's funny I added infinite warfare to my cart for $21 but couldn't justify it so removed it last minute lol. If it was the legacy edition I would have!

    Ended up grabbing For Honor, Final Fantasy, Halo Wars 2 and Kingdom Hearts.

    Wifey is pretty psyched for FFXV 😁

    • Wouldnt tell her till they arrive as there is a 99.99% chance we will never see them.

      • +1

        Yeah I know, I told her it was a pricing error and fingers crossed. She's still playing Andromeda anyway!

    Pricing error. EB will cancel and refund.

    That's a great choice!
    Great news! Your Pickup@Store order is ready and waiting for you at

    BTW I ordered to pick up in store and got the pickup email pretty quickly. Went straight to EB this morning and picked it up no questions asked.

    Obvious price error. Waste of time.

      Price error? Yes. Waste of time? Apparently not ;)

    Damn, didn't wake up early enough to see this bargain.

    Always miss out on the best deals. Hope everyone gets what they ordered.

    Would of loved to purchased witcher n honor @ those prices.

    Internal communication is that any orders submitted under the mistake pricing will be honored.

    • +2

      HELLLLL YESSSSSS

    • Dude, I will go into stores now and pick up some things that I was on the fence about buying just because you guys have honored the deal :x

      Nice I bought 7 games in total. Well done EB.

      • +1

        We were just too slow to bombard them with a hundred of orders otherwise it wouldn't have been a happy ending

        • +1

          You are probably right. I bet so many of us thought it was a price error and didn't bother to order any but if most of us made purchases it would have been a different story with over 2600 views.

        • +1

          @Jase2801:
          Or us refreshing 10+ times inflating those numbers lol!

        • @Jase2801:
          I didn't order myself because of that.
          Figured I'd wait and see, guess I should have place my order haha. Nice for those who gets their orders honored.
          I think another factor is that these were all pre owned copies as well if it was new stock I feel they would be more inclined to cancel all orders as the value they paid for the stock would be wayyy higher.

        • @Scaregdearimasu: I couldn't resist at these prices. Worst case scenario I'd get a refund :) Impulse buy.

    • Well then.

  • Good to hear they're honoring these. Picked up Kingdom Hearts 2.8 at $11. Would never have bought it at full price considering what it is. Would be nice to get the proper retail case etc but I won't keep my hopes up.

  • +1

    Just got my copy of for honour. Can confirm prices ARE NOT $8 in store.

  • Hey ####, your PickUp@Store order ##### is ready for collection!

    Sweet :D

    • did anyone else read the 'Hey ####' as 'Hey [insert profanity]' ?

  • Damn missed out. Sad face

  • Whoever bought witcher for ps4 and don't need it, I'll take it for 10$ ;)

      • +1

        I don't know how to feel about this "twiddle thumbs*

        • Well people are taking my earlier post seriously so (profanity) it, we'll do it live!

  • +1

    Ummmm just got an email saying store can't find any stock for my order and the warehouse is out of stock and now suggesting I get a refund? What gives????

    • +3

      I would suggest calling customer service on 133930. Stores were told to honor the deal so it would be a case of the store not being able to find the item.

      • I emailed. I may call later. Disappointing to miss out just because I chose the wrong store :(

      • +1

        Post orders will be honoured too, right?

    • +3

      If I read between the lines, I think they are saying they don't have stock

      • Turns out they cancelled it before the directive was sent out to honour the orders. Apparently they've fixed this for me. Collecting this arvo hopefully!

  • +9

    For those that received email to pickup, in store picking up now but they have said it's an error.
    But manager called their customer service line and they said they would honour the price. Hope that helps anyone who goes to pickup their order.

    I posted the above when I was in store, just a bit more info, when speaking to the store manager when I picked up, the system says that the amount I paid is only a deposit and he was telling me he can't fulfil the order unless I paid the extra amount. But he called the customer service line and he was told that he needs to honour the price error. So definitely get them to call the customer service line if there are any disputes in store!

  • Any chance we can get receipts posted up? Maybe get stores to price match if possible?

      • Not good enough! Needed the entire catalogue!

        I'm so sad seeing uncharted 4 at $99.95 again…

  • Cool that they're [For] Honouring the deal :)

  • +2

    I just picked mine up, the guy behind the counter was jealous! I didn't have an experience as above, they just handed it over.

    • What did you end up getting if you don't mind me asking?

      • +1

        Just For Honor for $8

        Here's the receipt if people want to try and price match (problem is it's preowned). Good luck!

        • +1

          Nice. Thanks for sharing the receipt.

    • +3

      The guy at EB said "Good bye money!!"

      Haha trade in price for 'For honour' is $22. I have a 50% trade in voucher so would get $33 - 20% for cash = $26.4 = $18.4 profit.

  • +1

    I walked in and walked out. Very simple no questions asked just ID and handed over games.

  • +4

    I sent my partner in and they initially gave her grief for not being me picking it up and not having my EB card on them.

    Then the EB staff person told her they were waiting for head office to tell them how to process the games purchased in this deal.

    In the end another staff member came over and just told her to do it and overrode the system.

    Got my games so I'm happy :)

  • +2

    God Damn. I missed it because I was getting ready for work!

    For Honour is only worth 8 dollars in my book to be honest. Bugger. I need to get on these price errors. I remember JBHIFI selling BF1 season pass for $20.
