Price of FS 10

I see slavazon.com (I worked there over Holiday 2004, so I have the inside knowledge to call it that) is selling it for $65 plus shipping, I assume. I just saw it tonight at Best Buy for 50 bucks, plus tax. You do the math...

That's actually a good deal, because the one you see at Amazon.com is the deluxe edition for $65, and the deluxe version at Best Buy is $70.  The one you saw at best buy is the standard version, and is normally $50, but only $45 on Amazon.com.  So if you want it for $5 cheaper, go to Amazon.com.

There are different versions? Thanks for the heads-up! What does one have over the other?

The deluxe version has the G1000 glass panel, the ability to be an ATC in multiplayer, the SDK, and some other stuff I think.  It was worth it just for the G1000 in my opinion.

I got FSX Delux at Fry's electronics for only $43.00 day after it came out.  Great deal for sure. I dont know if it has changed you should check it out.

I noticed a week before the official release that the local WalMarts had the Deluxe version for $49. Not only a mistake about the release dates but also the cost  ;D

I bought fsX for $120 AUD, or $92 USD, YAY! Stupid Aussie prices.... I still think it's worth it though.

It's funny seeing other countries whinge about fsX price. $50 USD BIG DEAL!

Is there any way that I can upgrade my FSX Standard Edition to Deluxe without buying the software?

I have seen Deluxe for $69 around here, but I have a hard time spending that much on a GAME.  I'll just wait a year until they have it marked down to $29.99, just like I did for FS2004.

I dunno what the deal was - promotional sales gimmick - or pricing mistake, but my wife picked up the deluxe edition for me at Circuit City in Avondale Arizona on the release date (Oct 17) for $37.99. I have the receipt available and can scan it if need be.

I don't get it though. Seems like that would have meant the regular would have been at $27.99. The advertised price on their site says $49.99 and $59.99 respectively.

Any way I really got a deal on it judging from what some paid here.
