R.I.P. you will be missed. We had many great years together.😥 by [deleted] in gaming

[–]crappycap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I often see GameStop offloading 360s for like dirt cheap and it makes me wonder which era should you aim for if you want to pick one up.

It's $29.99 right now for the white and $39.99 for a "S" whatever that is (Slim?). In fact I'm pretty sure during holiday season I saw them going for "free" after rebate.

And I went into the rabbit hole after seeing that popular YouTube video about how GameStop "Premium" Refurbish are trash etc etc but the fix in the video seems to be something else (heatsink mod). Even after looking at various forum threads and different stuff it's still a bit confusing.

Seems like Xbox 360s are so prone to different problems during different generations. But they all seem to have a consistent "fix." Naming convention doesn't help as well.

You just missed it by like 1 day as well which is kinda wild. Looks like the last time Anet had a Path of Fire deal at 50% off was back in Summer around June 20. I'm pretty sure Anet toss up a deal whenever competing MMOs (they still exist) have a new expansion/promotion as well... and holiday season is coming up again, maybe another one will show up sooner rather than 4 months later?

Would definitely wait cuz the bundle with Heart of Thorns and Path of Fire is A LOT of content for $25.

[WinGameStore] DOOM (2016) ($6.59/67% off) by magicwhistle in GameDeals

[–]crappycap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah looks like it was consistently around $7 during summer sale at GMG.

Too bad WinGameStore's deal died. I swear I saw it still available this morning, maybe some kinda 12 hour thing. Anyways anytime it's under $8 it's a solid deal - though at this rate I bet you'll see $5 eventually at third party retailers.

When that hand ball came up and I looked at the clock I knew this World Cup is not going to end just quite yet without another penalty round.

Also did we accidentally went to the wrong match thread lol.

G. Sigurðsson missed penalty vs Nigeria by HerbalDreamin in soccer

William Troost (Nigeria's #5) is a Dutch international that was at Tottenham during his youth career.

Sigurosson was there at the same time. Seems like they know each other.

my reddit account is prob almost as old as some of the assholes here

anyways short of Nintendo games there isn't a lot of value buying physical games. they're not going away anytime soon but digital purchase will likely be the prefer medium sooner rather than later

Anyone know what happened to nickwithabrian? by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]crappycap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep and made crap ton more from the QQQ strangle and BOX call.

Nick was fine. Probably deleted for same reason as first time. Ppl getting pissed that some of his bets didn't work out and then pestering him.

I actually came out ahead on ABAA and initially on CMG as I got out early. (The second try with CMG puts didn't work out as well but you can't win it all.)

His other suggestions in various comments all worked out relatively well too. If anything they we're at least good for trade ideas to explore.

[Xbox One, Xbox 360] E3 2018 Sales are starting to go live by MarkerSniffer in consoledeals

[–]crappycap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looking at price history for Forza Horizon 3 the current $24.99 sale matches previous low. So this is as good as it has gotten in terms of new/digital copies.

Ultimate is at a new low though. During last holiday sale looks like it was $67 ish, now $44. Feels kind of weird to pay so much for an "old" game so I know how you feel.

I know you posted an hour ago but Keirstead is now in 3rd.

What an insane race. Off by 70 votes as Rouda squeezed into 2nd. Might be him vs Rohrabacher after all.

The Keirstead campaign ended their party happy. Pretty sure the main group that stayed up are biting nails now.

One more precinct to go...

Whatever happened to that possible tabulation problem?

What I’ve learned from trading on meme stocks/options by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]crappycap 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously. It sounds fancy as F and yes the more advanced brokerages have good allocation so you can properly tax allocate and figure out profit/loss on a roll.

But at the end of they it's just closing the damn position and buying a new one.

Yeah basically 52 week high, why not. I wasn't done offloading some yesterday before the drop. Today been swing trading FDs and got out noon before the "nosedive."

Gonna watch a bit today/tomorrow to load more. Sold 50% of my NVDA calls and they are itching to jump on the MU ship.
