To add to this although other stores can get the movie later on that does not mean the packaging will be the same. Best Buy may most likely have exclusivity on the holographic slip.

Same here, and I just saw it dropped to $12.99, so, pre-ordering and for in-store pickup next week :D

Does Best Buy provide a Pre-order Price Guarantee like Amazon?

I jumped on it now... $12.99 is a good price especially if the slip does end up being a BB exclusive slip... plus free shipping so that works too lol

Good question. Does anyone know?

All the Best Buys in my area, have them on the shelf already. I was able to purchase mine. Although online they show as pre-order for pick up, just go to the store, because they are not showing in stock online but they are on the shelf already

I've read that they do, I don't know from personal experience though.

Edit: From Best Buy's website:
Best Buy Pre-orders


Q: Can you ensure the price listed at the time the pre-order is placed will remain the same?
A: Yes and no. When a price is assigned to a pre-ordered item, we are reasonably certain it will remain at that price. However, from time to time — given how far in advance we make items available to our customers — a price change will occur. If this happens, you will always receive the lower of the two prices. For example, if you order an item for $49.99 and the pre-order price is later dropped to $39.99, you will be charged only $39.99. If you ordered the item at $49.99 and the price rises to $59.99, you still pay only $49.99. When you place a pre-order, you are assured our lowest pre-release price.

Got mine here in KCK. Now I have to go back and get it price matched. Grr

Went to Best Buy today and saw this out early so I picked it up. I paid $14.99 but next week I'll go back to the store and have them price match it :D

You would've gone to their website in the laptops with the printers close to the registers and they would've matched it to $12.99 or just showed your phone.

I've done this in the past with titles released early and they refused to do it because the title had have not yet been officially released. So , I didn't want to bother, plus I was in hurry as I needed to get back to work.

'Cause he's "fast eddy"! He moves quick, doesn't realize another thread of The Ring has been around for awhile.

However not too fast, as others in the original thread have already started picking up copies. Heheheheeeeeee.
