    Found this price through pricegrabber.com, I purchased it but its for in store pickup only so will see if its too good to be true or not later today.

    Of the local stores on my list, only 1 of 5 had it available. Will report back when I find out.

    Success! Not only that but they refunded 5 bucks to my card when I went to pick it up.

    I recall seeing Razer mice being packaged in metal tins (at least last time I saw them in Best Buy). Is that the standard for all of their mice, or was that for a specific mouse type?

    By the way, there is a coupon that knocks an additional 10% off the price: BCAS9D4AZB. Just enter the code at checkout.

    Dunno about the metal tins, mine came in the same packaging as my copperhead did.

    I tried to apply the code and it didnt seem to do anything, but maybe that was the 5 they refunded when I picked it up.

    That is a great deal. Too bad my local CC's don't have any in stock. I'd love to try this mouse out in comparison to my G5. :)

    When I picked mine up the girl mentioned a 1 day only thing but since it seems to still be on sale maybe she meant the additional rebate I had refunded to my card.

    There is no mention on the site about how long this price will last, but it is limited availability to the stores you would go to pick it up at.

    Well I hope it'll be dependent on availability. Two stores around me still have them so I still got some time.

    Thanks for making this thread though. I was planning on buying a gaming mouse and had to choose between a few, but with the low price of this one, my choice has been made.

    hmm, the only cc stores that are in stock are about 3 hours away from my house. Caluclating gas, it wouldnt be worth it.

    i just bought one, there were three left at my local cc.
    i think they were marked down more, but maybe it's just my cc.
    only paid $20.96+tax ($22.22) as opposed to $25.96+tax
