    Specific case: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Tony-Hawks-P...-02-10-2015-/141780979417?hash=item2102ce0ed9

    I'm assuming this is simply an error on the seller's part, but the Xbox 360 version of this game doesn't come out until November 10. On this page, however, they're saying that it will be released on October 2. Now, I have no intentions of paying roughly $100 (Canadian) for a game that will be $40 on release anyway, but I'm just curious if anyone can explain why someone would list an incorrect release date for so long, and if the buyer assumed that they would get the item on that date, couldn't they give negative feedback to the seller if they don't receive it?

    Just wondering, because otherwise this person intends to release this particular version of the game about a month in advance.

    Also, let's not get into whether or not THPS5 will be terrible. I for one, intend to eventually get it anyway, even though my expectations are low.

    Possibly to account for the time the game/s will take to reach him before being shipped out to buyers.

    Probably just a mistake (the XB1 and PS4 versions come out Oct 2 in Europe).
