69.99-19.99= 50$ final price should be 14.99$ with the 110% policy :lol:

You da man! I ordered 2. One for me. One for free shipping and gifting!
Is there an RFD GW Guild going? I thought I read about gamers here forming one when the first Guild Wars came out. Should be a good way to exercise all those ATI X800 cards that people picked up cheap ;)
PM me if you're an RFDer and GW player and you wanna do some coop gaming.

Awesome deal! Ordered 2. For those that don't know already, each version of Guild Wars stands alone, meaning that this isn't an expansion pack of the previous games, and no monthly fee. This is also CE... I would've even bought it at the same price for the regular Nightfall!
Thanks OP for reviving my poor Minion Master N/MO :D

Smoking hot deal. They make a limited supply of those CEs, so this probably won't last long either!
I'm guessing they didn't sell well and they had a glut left over. But the supply will be limited.

I just looked at this the other day at Walmart (non-collectors) and it was $48 so this is a great deal. I haven't picked it up yet so I decided to order now, $19.99 is a fantastic price. I haven't got Factions yet either, will have to try and find it I guess. I added a WOW 60 day card for $26.99 (great deal) so I could get free shipping. I just starting play WOW (still on 10 day trial) and will be upgrading to full account this week, so I'll need this card in 30 days anyway.
Great find OP.

bought 4 copies. :) Each copy is spoken for, we're all in the same guild. I just started playing and the boys have been at it for awhile.
Now we're looking for a copy of Factions. None of the London Drugs in Victoria area were willing to sell us a copy of Factions for $5. All of them would sell it for $50. One of the London Drugs said someone made a mistake in Colwood corners London Drugs. :-0 Lucky RFDer that found a copy.

Wow this is one hot deal! Anyone in the GVR want to sell theirs at cost?
Any successful PM stories would be appreciated!
Factions for $5 is insane... I bought mine for $30 at FS during BD/W, and CS had it for $30 a couple weeks back.
Thanks OP!

Why are the prices so cheap? Is this game that bad? or trying to compete with WoW? I've never played Guild Wars before... but I guess i'll pick up a copy to try it out
dead_lo
Feb 12th, 2007, 01:01 AM
It's an awesome series of games, it is cheap now as GW factions has been out for almost a year now and Nightfall is out since Oct 06.
I have both the original (Prophecies) and Factions and they are both great games.
Just picked up 2 copies for myself and a friend as well.
Factions and Nightfall are both stand alone games if you haven't play GW before. They are not expansion. Just each game gives players different skills and character classes.

I pre-ordered the standard edition of Nightfall for $35.99 back in October (http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=354014) and it was a good deal back then!
This is just superb, grabbed 2. Will probably upgrade my account with one copy of Nightfall CE, and keep the other one handy for a gift. Now if I can only get Factions CE for cheap too... :D
Thanks OP!
FYI, that Factions (standard) was available from CS for 29.99 three weeks ago (http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=395468), but back to 59.99 now.

Is Nightfall any different from Factions/Prophecies? Other than new character classes? I have both Prophecies and Factions, and admittedly, I didn't enjoy either of them. It was too restricted compared to WoW and I had a hard time converting. This is a great deal though, should I give it another shot?

Nightfall is different in that it has "Heroes" - heroes are NPCs that join your party (sort of like henchman), except that unlik ehenchman they level up on their own and have their own items / equipment / skills etc. You don't control any of their actions, but you do have to buy them equipment, etc, to keep them competitive.
You also can't do certain quests unless you have the right hero in your party.
IMO the Heroes aspect makes Nightfall a much better game than either of the first two. I own Prophesies, only did a trial of actions and didn't buy it. I am very happy with nightfall though.

I own the original GuildWars (prophecies is it?) and I found it fun for a little while but totally hated the henchmen for their dumber-than-rocks AI. I hope the "heroes" in Nightfall are a big improvement, because I ordered 2 copies on an impulse purchase this morning :cheesygri

Guild Wars vs. World of Warcraft: 2-minute Comparison
Guild Wars
-instanced areas - no spawn-camping, enemies are only for you and your party
-level cap of 20 discourages grinding
-winning is based more on skills than equipment
-no monthly subscription fees
-can be difficult to find good groups and teammates
-can hire henchmen/Heroes to help you
-actual plot/storyline, but can get tedious at times
-no shops, so buying/selling is luck-based at best
-easy to pick up, play, and put down
-6 core classes, 2 more in each expansion, for a total of 10 classes (all human)
-PvP tournaments
World of Warcraft
-level cap of 60 (70 w/ BC), so lots of grinding
-winning is based more on equipment than skills
-$15 a month
-much more dedicated and diverse community
-multiple races to play with
-PvP is basically non-existent
WoW is your cookie-cutter RPG with a massive community and tons of stuff to do. Guild Wars is a little smaller but still fun to play.
Note: I've never played WoW, so my opinion may be a little biased. IMO, the $15/month kills it for me.
If anyone is willing to sell theirs, or have a successful PM receipt, please post/PM.

I picked up Factions yesterday for $15+tax at BB. I didn't have any trouble getting a price match. I had printed out the web page and after pointing out the $15 price I was on my way. I had stopped at staples first but they wanted to charge the $13-14 more for shipping. I think I spent more time waiting for the couple in front of me to buy a Wii than I did actually doing the price match.

I was lucky enough to get it through amazon...but why would they PM simply on the grounds that you have a (photocopied) receipt of a prior PM? I never understood that reasoning...they could just state that it's OOS at amazon.ca now and you'd be powerless to do anything.

So I swung by my local BB/FS to try to PM. No such luck.
The BB CSR charged me the $11 overnight shipping but also gave me $6 in PM, so it came out to $25 before taxes. However, watching her struggle to subtract 6 from 31 floored me, so I left.
The FS CSR claimed they didn't do online retailers. She pulled out the policy and said amazon.ca was a "mail-order offer." It was a load of BS, but I didn't feel like arguing with her and left.
So YMMV, I guess.

Instead of cancel the order manually, I emailed basically saying "wtf I ordered two weeks ago and it is just now cancelled? Either ship the whole order, or cancel the whole order."
And this is basically their reply: Because you are angry and removing that item actually increased your shipping fee, you now have free and express shipping.
Great. Free shipping on the stuff I added just to get cheaper shipping. I check the order to cancel it, and in the time it took them to RESPOND TO MY EMAIL ASKING TO CANCEL THE ORDER, the order I don't actually want has already started shipping.
So the fruit of my labor on this deal? I have free express shipping for DESCENT 3 by Cokem International Ltd (http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00079MV2O/701-3510439-8609140). I expect to have my $3.41 jewel case delivered to my door on February 28th.

Yeah, the continuation of the story is that they replied to my reply and suggested re-ordering and re-emailing them to get the price put down to $19.99. Hopefully this one doesn't get canceled. They also suggested not accepting / return-to-sender'ing DESCENT 3 to refund it. I think I might keep it though, frame it, and then hit myself in the head with it
