I'm sorry you missed out on the deal. i have been dealing with NewEgg OK for the last ten years; i tend to support them as they have always treated me fairly - and i do NOT *expect* them to send me this price mistake nor will hold it against them if they deny it; i knew something was too good to be true ,, i took a chance that it was a wild promo

I had no idea you took me as serious to begin with to have to apologize to you, for I thought I was known around here as the resident nut, not to be taken as serious, and the last person to ever thread crap or put someone down anyway, for that, yes, I am sorry.

No .. i didn't really take you serious; i responded in much the same vein as your comments
- please forget it; there is no problem at my end

And to NewEgg's credit, i got my Stalker: CS for $3.26 shipped including tax - today
- Now that IS service

it comes in an OEM DVD sleeve with the KEY on an affixed label;it will make a nice gift as i have it already. CS was my GotY for '08.

I just got FarCry 2 and Stalker Clear Sky. They came wrapped in bubblewrap inside a wad of brown wrapping paper inside of a medium sized box. I really have to wonder between what these games cost them and what they paid for packaging materials, labor, and shipping how much money they lost selling these two games to me?

I got mine yesterday as well. Stalker wasn't even recognized as a disc in my dvd-burner. It was an NEC ND-2510a. I had a brand new sata drive I was waiting to put in though. Replaced the drive and it read the disc fine. I guess the old one was just tired.

Mine cam just as the previous posters' did - in a sleeve with bubble wrap. The discs are branded with ATI and MSI logos. My guess is that they had a bunch left over from a free gift program and didn't lose a dime on them. 🙂

Thanks again OP.

mine came in as well, installed and breifly played both stalker and rainbow 6 with no issues. the only downside compared to buying this on steam is that you need the cd in the drive to play

Got my copy of Stalker CS yesterday too. $3.01 shipped to my doorstep. Installed and patched last night. Hopefully I'll get to play some this weekend.

Up till 1 am playing Stalker CS. The entrance to the Cordon area is tough, but doable (game forums have hints if you need them). Headshots rule, so it pays to buy upgrades for your weapons. Got my $3 worth already, and just getting started.

Stalker Build 1935 has just been released. It is a somewhat playable alpha build of Stalker, with lots of content that was stripped out for the original commercial release.

Yeah, I received my copy of Stalker yesterday and couldn't help but laugh at the completely unnecessary packaging for a single disc in a paper sleeve.

Um yeah, it's been dead since just a few minutes (maybe an hour or two?) after it went live.
