You can probably find two used PS3 ones online or at a pawn shop, they should work as far as I know. They do use mini-USB for charging vs micro USB however.
Try this
https://www.redflagdeals.com/
Be sure to check that website regularly cuz you would never know when good deals will be occur.
OR
Ebay is your alley since they're only selling low price for move controllers.
Found one is cost $22.99 for each move controllers and you will get over $96 and that things is refurbished.

Cancelled mine as well. Probably should have done so when the games list was announced, but the poor reviews finally pushed me over the edge.
I'm not really sure what you're asking. It sounds like the situation is essentially resolved. You're not out of any money. Sounds like you did what you could do, and Wal-Mart screwed up on their end. This is a very common thing with them. Just take the win, keep an eye on your statements to make sure you get your refund and aren't charged anything you shouldn't be, and sleep easy. You did nothing wrong.
Beyond that, I don't know what you want us to do for you.
That's fine. I just wanted know if it that type of mistake was common with Walmart and I'm not just lowkey participating in refund fraud or something.
I updated my card on my Smash Ultimate order on Walmart and now the game is showing full price and I already have a charge on my card for it. Did the CSR mess up and I have to call them back, or will I somehow actually be charged the $50 + tax rather than what it is showing?
Edit:
Called back and they adjusted it back to $50. Funny since all the CSRs told me they had no way to adjust a price when my Let's Go was cancelled and I asked for them to make a new order at the discounted price.

Same. Hearing that even NTSC games had issues with framerate (according to Eurogamer) was what made me finally pull the trigger on canceling. Oh well.
I cancelled mine a couple of weeks ago and it sounds like I made the right decision. I was always on the fence anyways.
Yeah, it's on their website's return policy. No can do once it's been opened
The only deal I got for BF was the Bose QC II's on sale for $50 off. Should be coming today according to Amazon. I'm not expecting to be blown away in terms of audio quality but I hope it's good nonetheless!
Yeah it does thanks. I was only asking because I used to buy psn gift cards at the grocery store with PC point rewards but they eventually put a stop to it. I guess this isn't really the same situation though.
They're very good headphones. I don't know your threshold for being blown away, but I'd be surprised if you had much of an issue with them
OMG this is hilarious to me. WalMart Canada responds to Geoff Keighley! I don't think they get it. LOL
Edit: sorry, in case anyone doesn't know, WM Canada spoiled several new games right before E3.

Anyone know where to purchase new Dualshock 3s that are legit and not Chinese fakes? Amazon is no good (all fakes). Local stores only seem to have used ones that aren't in the good shape. Ebay is very hit or miss and the "hit" ones cost way above the MSRP.
I'd also like to get some Dualshock 2's if you know a place. (new).

Thanks....I'll try to find some used ones cause that's still way too expensive...
I bet there was a sweet spot between the release of the Move on the PS3 and the announcement of PSVR where the controllers were super cheap everywhere.
They had clearance packs with the PS3 camera + a couple of Move controllers and a game for $20. lol
The Move was a bomb on the PS3 and we didn't know they'd use the controllers for the PSVR years later and jack up the prices of them.
Oh yeah I totally understand the reason why... It's still frustrating lol
I remember I once bought it and rarely use it for playing AR of fairy tale books or something. Then I untouched it for decade until when I bought a PSVR so I thought I'd finally use it....and then it became unresponsive and broken. :|
If you want new, you're going to have to pay eBay prices way over the MSRP. They're long out of print, and every store that had them has clearanced them years ago. You're best off buying something used, and replacing the thumbsticks with Chinese replacements. The Chinese PS3 thumbsticks available in an assortment of colors tend to be better quality (some of the black ones are passable, but some black ones are crap). PS2 replacement sticks seem to have dried up at some point. Which is annoying, I could use some myself.
Yeah I'm sure most batteries on those original release are long gone by now.
Best luck is Costco in store. Is there a reason you are looking at that over C8/A9F ect ?
Just price wise.
I'm also looking at the OLEDs.
And I'm swinging that way. But Vizio has served me well with TVs so far.
Just wanted to say fuck the Visions in Port Coquitlam. The weasels tried to pretend they were giving me $100 off the listed price of the TV when it was the listed price.
Embarrassed they offered me another $100 off if I got their warranty. Told me warranty will be refunded if I don't use it. Also said they do 0% financing over 12 months with a $41 fee. I was going to buy with cash but decided to put that money instead in a staff rate term deposit. So why not!
$41 feel + $98 fee on the finance companies end. Warranty refund is an in store only rebate... that can only be used on items worth double the value of the warranty (which was 299). I even asked the salesperson 3 times that it's a full refund. Also if you don't apply for it within 90 days of your anniversary date you lose it. Oh and you can't apply for it within 30 days...? Basically so Black Friday people can't use it for Boxing Day 2 years later?
Needles to say I gave the manager shit and got the warranty refunded and reimbursed. I work in a bank and deal with LoC, Mortgages and Helocs. Felt disgusted after

I went from a M55 to a C8 55" for 1788+ tax. Been a really nice upgrade. Vizio definitely has some great mid range products though
I'll take note to never go there, then. Need to get a new TV soon too.
Team cancellation right here too. Store said a few people had cancelled already but nothing in big numbers. Wanted to play MGS again but it's missing way too many memorable games.
Anybody dealt with Nintendo lately for repairs? I picked up a Switch for my girlfriend over the weekend at Shoppers (20x points, woo) and today we notice this light border around the edge of the screen. Goes away if the Switch is turned off but comes back when left in sleep mode.
Shoppers won't accept it for an exchange or refund and told me to go to Nintendo. They're closed for the night, so that's where I'm at right now.

I sent mine in for repair due to overheating and battery issues. They do the standard walkthrough trouble shooting to find the problem. They thought it was the standard charging cable, so they sent me a new one fairly quickly (3-4 days). Then when that didn't work, called them immediately to send it in. It was quick and they were pretty good with updates on the diagnostics and repair. I lost my 40 hour BOTW save, they did let me know beforehand. All in all, I was comfortable with how they handled everything. I hope my experience wasn't the exception and Nintendo is actually garbage with this stuff. Get the online subscription if you already have any saves you want to hold onto.

The experiences seem to vary. I fortunately had a good experience a few months ago. I called Nintedo's support line for assistance first and they had me send in my niece's Pokeball 2DS XL to their Vancouver location for repair. They'll send you a confirmation number through email and you can check the status of the repair/shipment on their website. You'll have to double-check with them on how they'll proceed with your issue though. In my case, they said if they couldn't repair the 2DSXL they'd send a refurbished regular edition (aqua/black or white/orange). Fortunately they fixed the knob on my niece's 2DSXL and I got that one back about a week and a half later. They might end up sending you a refurb though.
I wish you the best of luck!
Edit: ^ Right, I forgot they tried getting me to troubleshoot it first.
If it doesn't work, then they'll get you to send it in. They typically instruct you to remove things from the device before sending it in.
Here's a question for anyone that has ordered a package from Walmart and had it shipped to the store. How long after Canada Ppst (or whoever) delivers the item to the store do you get the "Ready for Pickup" e-mail? The item was delivered 48 hours ago, but have yet to receive an e-mail saying I can pick it up.
Can i buy amazon gift cards for 25% off? How do i do that? Seems counterintuitive with the shipping cost
All those systems are hit and miss with the volume of backlog
Max discount is $25 so anything over $100 gets less than 25% off. Anything over $167 is worse than last week's 15% off.

Seems like walmart in the other replies below is humoring the other responses lmao.
This doesn't seem to work. Perhaps they aren't allowing Canadian accounts to use it on eBay.com. Dunno.
One of the requirements is an account registered with an American address. That promotion is 100% USA only
