Looks like a pricing error. Price is back up to normal now.

Shows 59.99 when you click the front page link but when you go into the product page it still shows 17.99.

edit: never mind, if the cart shows 59 it's dead. RIP deal. I'll probably be canceled.

Holy mother of god gamestop is the absolute fucking worst and I saw that having about 9 friends who work for corporate, some of whom are network engineers for them.

honestly, fuck gamestop. Amazon will change the price back, but will honor orders. Poor form. Then again, i expect nothing less from this shit company.

Worst fucking company ever. I clicked on the buy it button on the product page at $17.99 and by the time I got to the last order page, the price changed to $59.99. I hesitated buying it cause they've screwed me in the past, but it was too good to pass up.

I think its because they have a square enix sale going on. and they accidentally added that game.

ye all other tomb raider games are 70% off as well on pc.
 
I sent the gamestop link to a buddy of mine and he jumped on it. Says he got a STEAM code for logging into the gamestop website, so maybe all you folks using guest log in just need to wait and it'll come.

I think the fucked up thing is that only a handful of people got their orders put on hold while a ton of people got them pushed through. If you're going to put them all on hold, fine, but to arbitrarily decide to hold orders is mind blowing.

Man, I hope this game does alright when all is said and done. Despite what I thought of the story, the gameplay was so much fun that it probably would have been my GOTY for 2015 had it come out for PC then.

Edit: Oh, I see the price was an error. Still, my hope for this game stands.

Shut the fuck up to anyone complaining that the price changed during the checkout process. GS is allowed to fix a problem on their site. If you got in on the deal, great, if you didn't you really can't complain. Intelligence escapes too many, Wtf.
 
Alright, I'm just afraid my separate orders are gonna get cancelled. If anyone has a spare season pass key and is willing to sell (I got the base game already from the nVidia promo), I'd really appreciate it.

Agree. Can't believe the entitlement that exists in some people. A completely disgusting look.

It was a price mistake. They fixed it. They don't owe you shit.

Im sorry but what? These are the two most silly comments I have read all day. You knowingly went into it as a mistake and are upset because it wasnt honored? Also Amazon is no different here they will cancel orders.

Never had amazon cancel a price mistake order.

People hunt for deals, whether it is sales, pricing errors, whatever. having your order cancelled is shit. I'll move on, it isnt going to ruin my day, but its still shit on their end.

It's not knowingly a mistake tbh. It's listed as a major deal on their front page so you have no reason at all to think it's a pricing error. Also huge pricing errors typically don't last 12 hours. Now complaining about the price changing, yeah you got me there. If they cancel mine then oh well. Nothing I can do about it.

They may have also just ran out of keys, happens all the time, even on steam.

Eh the 70% off would still be odd looking at this time, through it been 12 hours lol? That amazing.

It wasn't a guaranteed price mistake when you add the extra effort of advertising for $17.99 in their front page instead of a simple database listing error.
 
Ordered while signed in about an hour and 20 minutes ago. Still nothing in my email and order page. Probably gonna get cancelled :(

If they advertised that price on the front page, then you should be calling their customer service. That's bullshit, and you should be granted a key at the advertised price.
