I tried to cancel my Origin order but it wouldn't let me because I already pre-loaded the game.
I grabbed Skyrim for $6.99 right before the K-Mart site stopped accepting orders about an hour ago.
MW3 was $6.99 too.

I wouldnt even buy MW3 for 6.99 knowing I'd return it within a week like the past three of them.

As I stated previously, K-mart has stopped accepting orders through their website for the mis-priced items. Seems they realized their mistake and are currently fixing the problem.
I, however, placed an order for Skyrim for $6.99 before they fixed the issue. 
Let's hope they honor the order.

The above link has plenty of people posting their order confirmations that show they got BF3 for $8.50 after shipping/taxes.

that is hilarious! I'd like to get a game for that cheap.
Too bad Skyrim is a console port and running DX 9 which is outdated and looks like crap. Not to mention the scaling level system I wouldn't even pirate the game.

Woah, origin charges fucking tax? This is bullshit, if I had more willpower I would walk away. Steam ftw, this will be my first and only game I buy through origin.

Every time I buy a game through Steam I get charged tax because I live in the same state in which Valve is based.
I can't remember if I got charged tax when I pre-ordered on Origin.

I thought that tax only applies when physical goods are shipped? That's interesting that steam taxes you, I have not heard of them doing that.

All depends on the state, I'm pretty sure. Ah under 48 hours

Who else will be playing at midnight tonight
-------------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Looks like we are getting a release day patch as well. For those who played the beta, how did sli/crossfire perform?
