Amazon Prime Fallout 4 savings (physical) PC, XBone, PS4

Post by Giles Habibula »

I don't know what is supposed to happen here, but the following appears on that page for the physical pre-order copy of the game:
Amazon Prime Member Savings
Members of Amazon Prime qualify for a lower price on this item when shipped and sold by Amazon. Add it to your cart and see the discount at the final check out page. Offer will be extended to all existing Prime member pre-orders
As I am a Prime member, I tried it, but no discount appeared on my final check out page. So I called customer service, she saw it in my cart, looked at the page, couldn't figure it out, and gave me a $10 discount on the game. I wasn't really planning on a pre-order for this, but for ten bucks, sure, why not.

I'd be curious if the advertised discount works for any of you who are Prime members, and if so, how much is the discount?

The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

Hmm. So maybe the PC version isn't supposed to have that discount blurb on the page?

Usually when Amazon screws something up, and they are notified of it, they straighten it out pretty quickly.

I'm currently seeing a 3 cent savings on the PC version.

I added the XB1 version to my cart and went to checkout and went "holy shit $29!" Then I noticed I had some gift card credit left over which was reducing the price by $28. :P

Here's the XB1 discount, apparently the same as the PS4:
Prime Savings: -$6.97

I also confirmed no such savings on the physical PC version.

They finally took the discount message off the PC store page.
It's still up for the consoles though.
