October 3, 200619 yr Author Walked in to the Best Buy (Warwick) and looked for it on the shelves. Nada. There was a blueshirt stocking the software shelves, so I asked. He got a smirk on his face, and said "No, we don't have it." Seeing right through that, I countered with "Uh huh. It's in the back, isn't it." His reply was "Yes, it was" - he had it on the shelves earlier in the day, but his manager asked him to put it back in the warehouse until 10/17. No harm in trying, though!I popped into the CompUSA and asked a lovely redshirt (* a rarety these days!) for help on the same thing, but apparently they have yet to receive it (and wouldn't sell it until 17th anyway). Why must my local stores follow the rules! :)For those early, Enjoy!-Greg
October 3, 200619 yr Thank you for the heads up...Best Buy Rockford,ILboth versions!!I feel a cold coming on...
October 3, 200619 yr Just checked at the BBuy in Gwinnett County, GA (just NE of Atlanta). No dice.But I did hear from a buddy up in NJ who hand his hands on it and was standing the check out when he called to gloat.Grrr. Guess I'll be waiting until the 17th when I can buy it for $5-10 less at Fry's. Might just have to take the day off from work to go through all the lessons ;-)--2002cbr600f4i

October 4, 200619 yr Thanks for the "heads up".I went to my local Best Buy after work and all they had on the shelf was FS2004 so I found one of the "Geeks" (very nice young lady by the way) and asked if they had FSX. A few minutes later she came out with several boxes of FSX Standard Edition and a few Deluxe. I purchased the Deluxe Edition, of course. :-)Store Location: Montgomery, AL-Thad
October 4, 200619 yr Classic odog! Definitely a valid use of the "fs sickie" strategyhttp://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho...36710&mode=fullCheersJames>Thank you for the heads up...>>Best Buy Rockford,IL>>both versions!!>>I feel a cold coming on...>>>
October 4, 200619 yr Ok lets put it to the test give us some photos of FSX and your best buy receipt. That should do it. I mean if I had it. I would show you guys proof would be no problem to me.
