There have been, many times, often spearheaded by yours truly. It was "collectively" decided that people can post whatever asinine shit they want to in this thread, and that actual impressive finds would go in the "finds of the year" thread instead.

And before you ask, the answer is no, apparently the "Deals" subforum is not the proper place to post deals found via Gamestop sales. :roll:

^That's actually a very astute observation yosh - in this case, I was going to say almost verbatim what dsh said, but then thought about it and said - wait, we've already been over this 3 times in the last 2 months to no avail.

I personally was not referring to you although I did almost say "I'd rather hear about what flojocabron found for practically market value at a flea market than hear about what's on sale at Gamestop this week." :mrgreen:

If Gamestop reverted back to Funcoland, then I would never shut up. :mrgreen:

I feel it would be in bad taste to brag about deals you got from a fellow member, like if somehow you snatched up Panzer Dragoon Saga for $20 and posted here, only to have the seller see the post and realize his mistake would be kind of messed up.

I paid only $5 for it! The price tag says $7 but because I bought three other (unrelated) $5 items he let me take 'em all for $20. I haven't EVER found a rare game like this before. I'm hyped.
Finds of the year thread nomination? :o
