*Game Bargain Alert* Battlestations Midway on 360 £17.94


Game just released yesterday, Tesco in store have mucked up the price.

£39.99 on their website, in in most stores it is marked up as £17.94 and scans at the tills £17.94. Even if it is shown as £39.99 go scan it and it comes up as £17.94.

Don't know how long it will be before they notice, so be quick. I just bought a copy, was tempted to buy a few and eBay em lol

Haven't played it yet but from what I read, looks half decent and for £18 you can't go wrong!

BE QUICK! If you get one post here.

Would have been worth it if it was a decent game.

Re: *Game Bargain Alert* Battlestations Midway on 360 £17.94


Matkavs are they still selling at tesco for that price? and if so do you reckon they've sold out by now? And they must have fixed that fault on all their stores by now right?
Im not sure if i should drive down and have a look in the big tesco's store near me now! If i say do buy some is it best to sell them on ebay?
Regards,
Shaun

Smilez - I got my copy at about 5pm - and there were lots of copies left - so they should be at that price.

In my store - it was priced at 39.99 but when scanned it came up as 17 - so they will bever know there is a problem really!

I'd say go and check it out.

mrbean at the time did you know it was going to be scanned that cheap? And when you got to the til did you ask them to scan it and ask how much it cost?

Re: *Game Bargain Alert* Battlestations Midway on 360 £17.94


Yeah - i already new about the misprice - I got to tesco - saw it priced at 39.99 and went home as i thought it would say 17.49!! But then i read at some stores it is still labelled at 39.99 - so went back and just went to pay for it and it came up as 17.49 - and there was no price label on the actual game so the checkout girl didnt suspect a thing!

In theory, couldn't you get it for free because of that rule they have?

"If a price is marked wrongly we will give you the item plus your money back"

Could be worth a shot maybe?

Re: *Game Bargain Alert* Battlestations Midway on 360 £17.94


Haha, I went to Tesco earlier on, technically yesterday night. But haha, it said out of stock on the label bit, so I shoved my finger in behind the plastic bit to push away the red out of stock label and to my amazement it was £17 haha, and to be honest I don't think they ran out of stock. I think they got told to take them off the shelves to stop anymore people from buying them. As it may take over a day to get the price changed. Or have they noticed yet? Haha, I can just imagine the headlines........ "Tesco loses millions due to incorrect pricetag on Xbox 360 game" haha
