    I'm looking for a Best Buy Megs and can't/refuse to pay the scalper prices (and/or jacked up bidding war prices)

    Are they being restocked at most Best Buys? The closest BB is 45 minutes away so it isn't really practical to go every day until I get one.

    In Rachet's feedback thread someone mentions finding a great deal of them yesterday. I'm wondering how widespread this is.

    I am praying that they are restocking. My week was bad enough, missing out on Megs just adds more shit to the pile.

    There may be some that didn't quite make it to the store in time for the release date, and some that didn't sell out on the release date, but I strongly doubt there will be any sort of restocking. They have promotions like this all the time with toys for kids movies and they never restock.

    mine had two of each a few days ago, but i dont know if that was a restock or not. i didnt go to them for the exclusive dvd so i didnt see them on release day. it def looked like the only allocated space for them was the 4 though.

    Fortuneately my aunts an alcoholic(the fun type, think Karen from "Will and Grace") and forgot to pack her underwear, so after picking her up from the airport yesterday we went to a nearby Von Maur for panties and bras. Best Buy right next door. Dashed in while she was perusing(why do womens clothing departments just reek?) and low and behold about half a dozen of each. Guy I asked where they were said they just got them in this morning.

    I should also mention that my aunt made me grab the WRONG bag from the luggage conveyer. When we got back to B-Town she notices and we have to go all the back to the airport again. 3 hour round trip. Her real bag is dark, dark, black. The one she had me grab-maroon. How do you mess that up!? Good laugh, but I feel deeply sorry for the persons bag she took.
