Very Dead; Logitech G27 Wheel & Pedals $150 @ Best Buy B&M

[rip]

There are still some left here and there as of this morning (3-29-10). Sale was originally online only but folks have been walking out of the B&Ms with them for $149.99 + tax where applicable. Online, it says sold out.

I understand now that at least one online order has been cancelled....ouch
I got mine in store on Tuesday.

What is a G27, and what store do they sell them at??

Nevermind.. don't need a racing wheel.

This is amazingly hot if you can get one. Bought a G25 a few years ago for $250, worth every penny.

How does this compare to my old Logitech Momo Force I bought probably a decade ago that was going for about the same price that I never have installed? Just curious.

I had the same wheel before the G25, and it's a huge difference. I was actually thinking about this the other day - would be very hard to go back. The overall feel of the wheel, greater rotation range, etc., in addition to the obvious addition of the H-shifter and clutch all add quite a bit to the games I play.

I would love to have one - I have the Logitech wheel with 900° rotation but only the forward/back shifter. A gated 6 speed would be a blast.

I'd play racing games if I could afford a wheel like this.

Thanks. It's not easy to justify $150 for an upgrade, though. Oh well.

What's the story here? Best Buy sales usually run Sunday through Saturday if I'm not mistaken, and this was posted on Monday. The price shows as $299 online. I found a store near me that has 1 in stock, but the lady on the phone told me it was also $299 in store.

I bet this one was a price mistake. Kudos to those that got in on it.

Yeah it was 299, in Miami last week. Although the best buys by my house, almost never have a really hot deal. I'll continue to live with my momo, force. I rarely play racing games, but it was tempting.
