How much profit does Best Buy make from selling Diablo II (not expansion)?

[MillionaireNextDoor]

I'd really like to know in order to decide whether or not it's worth it to wait 2 more weeks before I get my employee discount to buy it for myself since BBY sells to its employees 5% above cost.

Best Buy charges 5% more for you to buy it now? I say wait the two weeks. You've waited this long, you can wait 2 weeks.

best buy charges 5% above how much best buy paid for it for their employees.

so best buy makes only a 5% profit from selling to its employees

I don't think Best Buy can make THAT much money off Diablo II, since I think it's down to $30. I think they make like $10 - $15 off it?

One of my friends works at Best Buy and I wanted him to get me a copy of American McGee's Alice. I think it was normally $50 and he could get it for me for $40, so it wasn't really that big of a discount. If you already work at Best Buy then can't you just look up the discounted price in the computer?

I used to work at Best Buy and anything pc related was not really discounted much in price.I think the biggest pc related employee discount I got was 50 bucks off a GTS back when Creative released it.It was about 250 online same thing I payed.

I'm always asking my friend about discounts he can get on computer stuff hoping that I might get lucky and get a really good deal on something, but it never happens since most of their high end computer stuff isn't really marked up that high. However, one time I needed a new printer cable, and the thing was like $25. After my friend got the discount it was only like $3 and some change.....I was pretty happy about that one.
