marcusB Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 Has anyone else received this ad? It is from a seemingly reputable store, so I am guessing it is a mistake. If anyone from BFC would like all the info, please email me, I did not feel comfortable putting all the specifics on the open forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnergoz Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 Why all the mystery? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusB Posted November 13, 2002 Author Share Posted November 13, 2002 If the company is selling the game in the US at a lower cost than, and against the wishes of BFC I did not want to give them free advertisement on BFC's forum. I did however want to alert BFC of the situation and this seemed to be the best/quickest way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Pies Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 Are you sure it isn't a pre-owned copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Harrison Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 Who's offering the game? Bestbuy? I find that very interesting. Could a store buy a copy from BFC and then sell it for the same price legally? For a higher price? Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusB Posted November 13, 2002 Author Share Posted November 13, 2002 Apparently the US company I received the ad from thought that they could get the game from CDV for distribution to the US, which is unlikely. Therefore, if I would have tried to order the game it would have probably been listed as unavailable. The whole thing was probably cosmicly staged so that I could receive my few minutes of Warholian fame. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Wiking] Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 The question is; who on Earth would buy the CDV version in the US if they can easily order the US version?

marcusB Posted November 14, 2002 Author Share Posted November 14, 2002 I wasted about 3 min. waving in the background of a TV news camera 20 years ago. But your right, I should have aprox 10 min. remaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
