I was in Newbury Comics today and they had one new copy for sale. You could see the Best Buy Exclusive sticker on it, but it was covered up by the new price sticker.
How much was it?  More than at Best Buy?  I would imagine so.

I see the e-mail on the previous page lists it as $14.99.  Interesting, I don't think it really means anything.  Maybe someone in charge at Newbury Comics is a GNR fan.

Somebody might wanna check if it's an import....

Odd to say the least.  Anyone up at Best Buy HQ able to tell us if they are selling off inventory?  Any pierced/tatooed/dope smoking* Newbury employees able to tell us where they came from (not likely)?

*having bought 90% of my rather large CD collection in Peabody, MA at NC - I can only assume the entire chain shares their hiring practices.

My local indie chain (Gallery Of Sound) has been selling CD since Friday, Nov. 21st - and sure enough, they were Canadian imports.

Has anybody ever thought of calling best buy/mailing them and just asking how long CD is supposed to be an exclusive for?
They might just tell you out straight?

I really doubt that anyone would have any clue. Home office might, maybe - but I doubt the teenage kids working there would know.

I went to a Newbury Comics in the mall here in CT today and they had 2 new copies of Chinese Democracy selling for $11.88, and one used selling for $9.99.  It was kind of strange seeing it in a store again, as I haven't entered a Best Buy since November 23rd.  There were no special signs for it or anything though, just placed with all the other GNR CD's.  And it surely did have the "Only available at Best Buy" stickers clearly on there, though they tried to rip them off as best as they could.  So I'm not sure how/why the got them, if they had a deal with Best Buy or what?  Are the CD's found in independent record shops clearly from Best Buy, like these?

Best Buy probably pulled all extras off the shelf and sold them to a distributor or a chain (in this case Newbury Comics).  Interesting that they do that... I bet it's done for all albums that they have huge promotions for.

They probably buy those copies from BB when BB has those $9.99 sales.  They don't even have to mark it up too much, it still seems like a deal.
