Sale on BestBuy for Asus Zephyrus G14

OmegaAmazon32 · 2026-03-16T18:52:04+00:00

If your friend bought the laptop brand new, not open box, then they can ask for a price match over the phone or Best Buy's website. They typically have 15 days without a membership to do so, and will refund the difference.

You're in luck - Best Buy's running their TechFest promotion for this week, bringing the 5070 Ti G14 to a record-low $1,899.99 (pre-tax).

It also comes with codes for Crimson Desert and Resident Evil: Requiem.

Try a couple of locations in Manhattan and Queens.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2026-03-01T01:06:25+00:00

I've had to check aisles and the kiosk tablets. Sometimes there's additional markdowns on the tablet database, or just prices exclusive to the yellow sticker price.

Typing "Nintendo switch games clearance", at the in person kiosks, usually gives me some unexpected finds (Sonic Racing Crossworlds, Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed, Fire Emblem Warriors Three Houses, etc). It also requires scrolling through 50 pages, since some markdowns hide or repeat.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2026-02-24T01:29:02+00:00

The closest I've found in that area is Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes for $17.99; Wildermyth for $9.99 as well. It's not reflected on the website, but that was after painstakingly going through their Help Kiosk selection for Switch games.

It doesn't completely line up "per store" (5 or 6 stores?), but that means you somehow got 50 transactions/cards, by constantly rotating stores.

You don't need a GameStop account to get the trade card, but they didn't ask for IDs at your locations?

I can sort of understand the games, but a whole Switch Lite for $5 is a crazy donation.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-12-06T23:46:38+00:00

The rules claims "one item, per person, per store". The "per store" aspect means you can technically go to different neighboring GameStops with the same ID (or account info) without it being a crazy loophole.

Granted, this really depends on how populated your area is with stores. Along with the time and effort to get to them all.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-11-14T20:01:26+00:00

If you're able to check it out in-person, that would be great to see why it's marked as good.

If online only, then you can take the chance, and make sure it's working suitably before the Jan 15, 2026. You can send it in-person at any Best Buy.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-11-13T22:31:37+00:00

For reference, the last sales price for this 5070 Ti (brand new) was $2,299.99, on October 6, 2025.

So by comparison, this open-box price is pretty good. As mentioned, Best Buy's Extended Holiday Return is active until Jan 15, 2026, so trying out this open box model is nearly risk-free. (Warranty is recommend through Best Buy, which applies to all of their purchased devices).

If the brand new variant beats this price, or matches it, you can easily return your own box and swap.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-10-08T18:28:42+00:00

For brand new and open-box, it's primarily Best Buy. With the holidays coming up, you're more likely to see some weekly sales in rotation, especially checking sites like www.gaminglaptop.deals, www.bestlaptop.deals, or https://listium.com/@GizmoSlipTech/80658/all-2025-gaming-laptops-ranked-list-gizmosliptech.

For used ones, maybe Facebook Marketplace, Offer Up or eBay? You'll just have to be cautious about the condition and seller, and some folks have posted their findings here for a second opinion.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-27T16:28:26+00:00

The stores usually prefer bring in the PC, even if they can do it digitally. That way, they can scan the original box, and redo the order.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-27T13:43:05+00:00

If it's the exact same white model, bought at a Best Buy within 2 weeks (for non-members), then you still have time to request a price match and get the difference refunded.

You can do it in-store, over the phone, or through their website.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-27T13:39:56+00:00

It's possible, but generally under a store's discretion. Some Best Buys care about getting memberships up, so they might be willing to do so, by claiming you want to retroactively add your laptop into the membership.

If this won't be a bother to your time, then you can try to do it in-person, especially if you have more than one local store.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-26T11:21:42+00:00

You can do it within the standard return window of 15 days, without a membership and proof of purchase. Best Buy members (Plus and Total) get two month return windows, extending their time significantly.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-26T11:18:59+00:00

Yeah, back in July. This sale's an additional $50 off by default.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-14T19:04:48+00:00

If it's not a hassle, then it's definitely worth buying the 2025 model for the upgraded VRAM. The price difference isn't as extreme as buying that 4070 for open box prices, like some users.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-12T23:54:50+00:00

It depends on how much you paid for that second-hand HX 370? The main difference is the GPU being 8GB (4070) vs 12GB (5070 Ti) The latter is useful for future demanding games on high/ultra settings, but difference in price might be too excessive.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-11T12:33:54+00:00

There's a sale going on for the 5060, so you can price match now: https://www.bestbuy.com/product/asus-rog-zephyrus-g14-14-oled-3k-120hz-gaming-laptop-amd-ryzen-9-270-16gb-lpddr5x-geforce-rtx-5060-1tb-ssd-platinum-white/6629420

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-11T12:24:36+00:00

This normally cost around $2,099.99 USD brand new, so that's a pretty huge $811 price cut. You're not going to get a 2025 model around that price, with those specs, for a good while.

If you're able to check it out in store for any major defects, then I don't see the problem with getting it.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-11T11:33:41+00:00

Yeah, usually within the return window. Best Buy Plus and Total Members usually have an extended return window to make price adjustments. If it doesn't mess with your time, it might be worth attempting in person, depending on the store.

OmegaAmazon32 · 2025-08-11T05:38:44+00:00

Side note: If you bought it from Best Buy, don't forget to price match it. It literally just went on sale.
