Fwiw I did a store pickup at gamestop today and got a sealed copy since they had 5 new copies in stock. I was also able to stack my monthly $5 off coupon to get this for 21 out the door. Not everyone lives super far away from one, it was a 5 minute drive for me.

It's been $30 elsewhere, which is the only relevant price here. Unless you somehow think the $5 discount compensates your time (and gas) for traveling to a Gamestop and picking up your order. But then you aren't getting a new copy anymore, either, because they open everything and then slap stickers on the box.

Best Buy and Target have waaaaaaaay lower minimum shipping thresholds as well. Gamestop jacked theirs up to $80.

The central issue with Gamestop is that, for a company that sells games, they never seem to be able to keep even popular games in-stock in-store. Every time a good sale happens, I check all the stores in my general area (50ish miles) and almost every sale item is just out of stock.

Literally won't let me give them money between that and the $80 shipping minimum. They should have a "ship to specific store" option that's free, honestly, given the current state of affairs.

But they got you looking and that often leads to sales on in stock products with better margins :|

I got one from GameStop. Supposed to be new but had no plastic wrap. I hate GameStop's practices. If it was a gift I would be upset. Also, they can deny a return by saying it's been opened ( returns have to be unopened and unused). If it's a gift, maybe pass on GameStop and get from another retailer to guarantee it's actually sealed.

Thanks OP! Ordered one from GameStop with the extra $5 off bringing the total to $27.14 after tax. My local GS is closed right now but I'll report back if it isn't new in plastic wrap.

Never seen this happen before but the deal was merged with the Switch BF post. The comments from all the posts are merged too so it's somewhat confusing.. Here's the link! https://slickdeals.net/f/17041138-nintendo-bf-offers-nintendo-switch-oled-super-smash-bros-ultimate-bundle-350-more-free-s-h?p=167197159&comment=success#post167197159

Edit: The BF page lists it for 30$ too, so w/ the GS Pro credit, this is one of the lowest prices ever for this game

The free shipping minimum is absolutely ridiculous.
