Gravis GamePad Pro for $2.44, Gravis Destroyer Xtreme (USB) Joystick $2.94 @ OD B&M

[Bagger]

This may have been an isolated incident, but I went into the Newport News, VA Office Depot and they had a whole cart full of PC gaming devices for 50% off lowest marked price. The Gravis Gamepad Pro, which I've seen at other OD stores in the area for $6.88, had already been marked down to $4.88, then another 50% off. Gravis Destroyer Xtreme was originally clearanced at $14.88, then down to $5.88 then another 50% off (I got the last one of these at this location). They had a Logitech Force Feedback Flight Joystick for $59.99 plus 50% off, Logitech Rumble Pads for $29.99 (I think) plus 50% off, Logitech Wingman Precision joystick for $5.99 plus 50% off, and the Gravis Tilt (don't remember the price) for 50% off. Good luck!

SKU numbers please!

 

[Bagger]

Unfortunately OD doesn't print SKU# on receipts. They were in a cart so they didn't have SKU's listed. Also none of these devices are listed on the web site. Maybe someone else can help out with this?

Went to the OD in WLA, CA yesterday and picked up the Gamepad Pro for $4.88 and they had plenty left, they also had the Destroyer Xtreme joystick on display for $5.88 but none in stock and the mgr. wouldn't sell me the display model. Went to the OD in Alhambra this morning and they have the same joystick for $19.95, asked the sales guy why the big difference and he had no answer. That sucks, get your clearence right with all your locations OD.

Called the Alhambra OD today and found out that they had put the Gravis Destroyer Xtreme joystick on Clearence, went and picked up 2 for $2.95 each. They have a small clearence table in front and there is a display near there for Gravis Joysticks, it shows the price at $19.95 but when you bring it up to the counter is rings up at $2.95. They still had a few this afternoon.

got a couple myself, good for gifts, not too good for play

My OD has nothing but stupid toner cartridges, some compasses, and a bjc-2000 printer on the clearance rack. THAT's all and it's horrible.

Bagger: I see that you are the one who cleans out Newport News store when there is hot deal. =)
Thanks for the post I am on my way out to see what other items are on clearence today.

Nice to see someone from NN area.

the od in fairfax, va still has a bunch of stuff
they even had one of the wd 45gb for $99 which went on sale a month ago.

I bought 4 GamePad Pros and 2 Destoryer Xtreme for 88 cents each yesterday at local OD.

I got a GamePad Pro today for $2.88 at OD. Saw a nice leather office chair for $85 (not on sale, but the catalog price said $160) and I couldn't resist. BTW, I'm having trouble getting the GamePad to calibrate correctly. I installed the drivers, but the cursor keeps moving wildly in games without controller dead zone features.

Why does all this stuff end up at a store nowhere close to me? Only real store selling computer stuff here is Staples (and Wal-Mart if you consider what they've got an actual selection )

 

[TBP]

the ODs I visited had tons of these game pad and joystick on the clearance table. The prices are all under $3 as I recall.

 

[SemperFi]

Yep, just bought one a few hours ago. It was on the clearance table by the registers. It was marked as 4.88 it rang up 2.94. I guess I should have bought another one.

 

[cape123]

Are these the USB version?

 

[jsmckenna45431]

Great find!

 

[unclebud]

sidewinders are $9.88 here and dropping
but i still like my wingman extreme
edit: sorry about above. do they have any tech support forums @ gravis? you'd find the answers there

 

[SemperFi]

Cape the ones at my local B&M are game port not usb.
