I never checked on the posters, but I did buy some old releases at 10CND a
piece a few months ago .. and I will buy more stuff as cash starts to flow
in .. If 4.3 and 4.4 went down to 10CND, I'd probably buy them along with a
few posters tomorrow ;)
It would be nice if the Computer Store of Calgary had a newsletter or
something like that to announce new offers, promotions, price cuts and stuff
like that ... that'd give me the chance to think twice before burning my
cash on whatever crap (a DVD for instance) and buy stuff ( whatever stuff ..
say .. stickers) from them.
Just for the record too I'm not affiliated with the Computer Store of
Calgary;
I just wanted to share.
Thanks to the good guys at the Computer Store of Calgary.
They rule and they customer service is outstanding.
