I hate my life

Post » Thu May 10, 2012 11:13 am

The last time I ever preoder a game.

Pay extra for it to come on the day? All I got was a knife in the back, a hole in my heart, and now... an annoying brother that wants me to play Fifa with him.

By the Nine! What did I do wrong!

The new swimming trunks came on time, the physics books cam in the blink of an eye. But what about Skyrim?

Nothing. Not a trace. I now have an angry face. Tonight I won't be using a mace.

Are you unable to make it Target, Wal-Mart (uhh), Gamestop, Best Buy, etc? If you can make it to one of those places, you really only have yourself to blame. If you can't make, bummer.

Seems that way. Very annoyed, as a Prime member I expect one-day to mean one-day.

So Amazon is delivering on the 12th?

I payed extra for it to come on the 11th... Amazon just lost one extremely cool customer.


Now someone paralyse me before I rip this place apart.

A bit dramatic aren't you? You're obviously not taking it well. And understandably so :swear:

Still, I ordered from Game, and I've spoke to others who have ordered from elsewhere and none of us have got our pre-order on time, so it would suggest Amazon isn't to blame and it's more Royal Mail's fault. I would make sure to get my money back for the delivery though if you had to pay extra.

This is false. Mine shipped yesterday and according to the tracking, is on the truck for delivery today.

Holy crap people, the day's not over yet!

Or did you actually choose Next day delivery instead of release date delivery...?

Sorry about the melodrama.

I will always go to the store to get games now. I'll risk the bonus map.

Amazon seem to have a real problem with delivering on time, I ordered mine yesterday afternoon from Gamestation, it arrived this morning. Gamestation have always been good when it come to pre-orders, well they have with me.

You know when they mean release date delivery it doesn't mean "delivery to this cry baby in the morning"

I know for one thing my game and guide won't get here till after 3pm or later tonight like normal, stop [censored]ing, as long as you get it before 11:59pm (not that places run that late) it will STILL be under RELEASE DATE so just give it time


If you are talking about a store not having it in stock, well bring it up with them

svcks

The amazon.com I use has only ONCE got me a game a day after the release date and it was not their fault that the plane it was one decided to have issues that day.

This.
If you actually read the release date shipping policy it says in bold: "Some carriers make deliveries to residential addresses as late as 7pm, so please allow sufficient time for the delivery."

You agreed to this when you pre-ordered the game from Amazon.
