I'm cheap. I'll wait until it is $9.99.

I'll bet it'll be even cheaper than that on the week of release.

My bet is $6.99 or $7.99

Which is all the more reason to wait. I think it sucks they have it at full price now to take advantage of all the fans that want to pre-order ASAP.

No, Best Buy has a huge chain of stores. For me it is simpler to order online because I can't be bothered with the crazy Christmas shoppers.

Best Buy is a Wal-Mart-sized superchain in the U.S. dedicated to just electronics, computers, music/movies, video games, washers, dryers, car stereos etc.

The album will be available worldwide at all records stores. Just in the U.S. it'll be a Best Buy-exclusive, at least for a few weeks, only available at Best Buy stores (the closest one to me is 2+ hours away), or online.

Because of the fact not every town has a Best Buy, alot of people will probably opt to order it online at Best Buy's website in the U.S.

Apparently pre-sales are doing quite well.

No one is taking advantage of anyone.

Your credit card isn't charged until the item is shipped or you pick it up. You get a total on your receipt now, but that total will change when the item releases at a lower price.

Yes, they don't charge you until it is ready to shipped, but I am pretty sure you get charged the current price which is the price you agreed to pay when you pre-ordered. I don't think they have the pre-order policy Amazon has, but I may be wrong.
