It was over a year ago that there was a really great deal on a HL2 preorder. I've forgotten the exact deal because it was so long ago (this was before anyone knew there would be seperate packages such as CE, Gold, Silver, Bronze, etc). I know a lot of people jumped on the deal (myself included). Then CompUSA changes their pricing, but still lets it go for $40 shipped overnight.

So now, a year later, after the relase date changes and whatnot, I had forgotten all about that preorder. My mom calls me from home (in another state) and tells me that a package from CompUSA arrived. Low an behold it is retail HL2. It is just the normal version, but $40 aint bad I guess. I have no use for it because I already bought a steam version. I just thought it was odd to receive that in the mail.

Anyone else remember that deal or get theirs in the mail as well?

Any questions related to buying please PM me. I'd rather this not turn into a FS thread.

I'll let you know when I receive the game.
