They need to have a loss leader in order to restore their business. Even at $20, they would be breaking even and more.

Um, wow!
This actually looks very impressive, I love how much it reminds me of LA Noire. This a pleasant surprise after "The Crate of Cthulhu".
I've been on the fence with the MPC-as is pretty much everyone here-but I will admit I really like this one, even though it seems to be a far cry from what they were originally teasing.

So it looks like they’ve stopped honoring the discount codes. Tried mine this morning and it says “not available right now.” Anyone else tried theirs and gotten a similar message? I have an email out to customer service but a response might take longer than the free shipping offer... I JUST used my code and it went through at $19.99 and still free shipping. I wouldn’t have ordered it at the $70 price point and even still I’m not expecting much.

Amazingly, they got back to me already and said they're looking into it; I'm sure it's a glitch and they'll honor it. For twenty bucks this looks like a solid deal; certainly a lot of stuff.

$70 is too rich for my blood!

My code worked as well and tossed in the KIY book I wanted. The Crate will wait until after Tuesday just in case my partner surprises me. Edit to add: cute email follow up.

I just used my code about a minute ago. $19.99 with shipping + Pin and Coin...assuming that everything actually ships, and it doesn't get cancelled.

And then we don’t reissue the coupon, problem solved!”

I may pick this up in January. The crate of Cthulhu didn’t impress me and I seem to get nothing but emails from them trying to suck cash out of my wallet. The current state of things is disappointing. I’ve gotten a couple of experiences for myself and others and C&C’d until they discontinued. I guess I should have mailed in the application. I figured it would be a $200 crate I’d skip. Were the codes unique or did everyone get the same code? Asking for a friend.

More credit to them than I expected to give. I assumed the code would be something like a generic SAVEUS2018 or CASHMEATSAC2018.

Boo. I didn't send in the nonsense application. Woe is me.

Ordered...used application code. Low expectations high hopes. Can't go wrong.

I never sent in the application for the discount. Still thought I'd give it a try last night.

I tried using my discount today and got some sort of error. I emailed them, but with Christmas, New Years and their typical glacial response I’m pretty sure I’m not going to be in on this.
