Is Best Buy going to have a different Season 4 Game of Thrones box set than other retailers like in previous years?

Hi SameerLapsia,

I just recently got into Game of Thrones, and I'm not ashamed to admit that I binged watched them within a matter of days. I've been debating buying my own box set for a while now so I understand wanting to know if we'll have exclusive box sets like we've had in the past years.

While don't have anything listed at the moment, I'd say to keep your eye on our main GoT main page for any future announcements or updates.

I hope this helps!

Season 4 packages were just uploaded to bb.com. 3 are recycled and 2 are new.

I would like to know why the 2 new crest covers, Tyrell & Martell, for Game of Thrones season 4 will only be available online and not available in store to purchase next week???

The 3 other covers (Stark, Lannister & Targaryn) have been available for the past 3 season releases, so the vast majority of customers purchasing season 4 will have already purchased these covers.  I, myself, purchased Targaryn for season 1, Lannister for season 2, and Stark for season 3.  Honestly, if I'd known you were going to start repeating the crests, I'd have probably flip-flopped my season 1 & 3 purchase crests.  In any case, I want to purchase one of the 2 new crests for season 4, but do not like the idea that I have to purchase it online to be shipped to me.  Personally, I

Accidentally posted while in the middle of still typing, and can't seem to find an edit function. Anyway, as I was saying, I personally just prefer to buy in store vs online. Plus, especially in the case of getting a special cover like this one, I want to make sure the casing is in as close to perfect condition as possible, and that just can't happen when having it shipped as it is more likely to arrived dented & beat up than in perfect condition.

Not sure why the 3 older slipcovers are instore and the 2 new ones are online only. I plan on ordering 2 copies of the Tyrell version and just return one to the store. Better chance of receiving a non-damaged slip.

Hello scamp/Peein-Elmo-

I’m a huge fan of both the series as well as the books for Game of Thrones, and I can’t wait for the new season to start.  In the meantime, why not make sure that you are caught up on all the storylines beforehand with Season 4?

The Martell and Tyrell covers are exclusive to Best Buy and as such, are most likely limited in availability.  Usually in those situations, we would list them exclusively on BestBuy.com to make sure that any pre-orders are fulfilled without incident.

I apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause you.

Sincerely,

I was also disappointed to find that Tyrell and Martell are online only. Each year I've gone to the store to pick up the exclusive cover and found this year that I had to pay shipping and wait longer to get a house I don't already own. Not even the house I want because you sold out online. I feel it's poor planning on the part of Best Buy or the distributer.

Looking forward to Game of Thrones season 8!!!
