OMG!

Where do they live? STORM THE PLACE!

London. They ordered it online for their daughter and it was posted to them. By yesterday it was indicating that it had been dispatched it arrived this morning (by royal mail!).

I wish I had agreed for my son to order one online for me. May be I would be celebrating tooooo!!!

I wonder where they ordered it from

 

[ben_nyc]

I just got an email from Game telling me my order was cancelled! Has anyone else got this?

That's crazy! The larger retail stores in the US have been known to offer a coupon or some credit when they make errors like this. If you're a returning customer; obviously, the chances are even higher. Furthermore, whether you order via website or store, speak to the manager (call if req.). This is def. not an honest way to run a business; explain that to them & how you relied on their terms to deliver this product & come on... you were informed at the last moment too. Good luck!

HMV isn't an online store, thats why. However it is true, they do over-charge on most things...

I'm amazed that an entertainment store wouldn't be online.

That's close enough that I have time to dress up, break in to theirs, disappoint their daughter and get the last train home.

I have everything including my eyeballs crossed for everything to arrive early.

HMV aren't online which is why they're going bust! Same with woolworths, companies don't survive not being online!

Wow I feel really sorry for you (not in a patronising way )
I feel even worse seeing as i had an email from game yesterday saying exactly the oposite. My game has been sent. I did order it pretty early, like as soon as it was put on the website.

 

[Lisha]

I swear, if that happens to me - I will cry. I'm also waiting on GAME. Fingers crossed you get your stuff.

That's not the reason they're going bust. They did have an online store but it was taken down when they went into administration.

 

[NinjanaMin]

Wouldn't be the first time. -.- I remember a couple of years back when they took pre-orders for two major upcoming EA releases, then a few days before the release date they cancelled all of the orders and announced that they would not be able to sell any of the games that EA was releasing over the next month. :/

That was actually due to EA pulling out of GAME though ~ it was around the time they started having money problems and couldn't pay their debts



Gah Guys, I was so bummed out mine didn't show today, hopefully tomorrow!!

 

[Lauren]

I'm just happy mines been sent now few

They did pull their online stores down, but it was the high-street shops that made them go into administration.

Woolworths is still going online... HMV got it the wrong way around, should of shut shops and open and stay online...

 

[Lauren]

Shops don't survive with both anymore more people shop online now I mean look at peacocks they went in to administration to, woolworths went bust because they failed to go online and then when they came back they started online

 

[spamurai]

Online is the way forwards... Their isn't much online these days.

Funny how things change; the internet wasn't even available publicly when I was at primary school lol

We was the first on my street to get dial up lol!

Haha. I remember that. Kids don't know how lucky they are these days lol

 

[Fox]

Dial-up was horrendous.

Anyway, just checked DPD again:

"We have collected your parcel from the sender and it is now on route to you. If you check back on the morning of delivery you will see a 1 hour time of arrival for your parcel."

yay

A guy I used to work with ordered a Fifa game a couple of years back and when he opened it, it had no disc lol.
He took it back and they didn't believe him. Gutted.

That happened to me when I bought from GAME before! Brand new game in wrap, but no disc. - Luckily I was the sort of kid that wanted to read the manual straight away so we noticed barely a minute from the shop and they believed us.
