Pre-Ordering Question!!!

[KingofQUEEN48]

it says for the rock band bundle that it will be shipping on november 20th when will we get the bundel then? dose it depend on when u ordered it or will they send it to everyone on the 20th?

[Xzyliac]

I dunno. I myself just received the ETA notice via teh Gmailz.

Anyone else know?

[_GABO_]

There's still no official release date (to my knowledge), so that's still just an estimated date.

[KingofQUEEN48]

yea release date is nov 6th

[StrikerD]

If you buy anything from Gamestop.com & get overnight shipping you'll get it on the street date (nov. 6th I guess). It's a garuntee or something. Of course overnight isn't exactly cheap...

[KingofQUEEN48]

o i got mine from game stop do u know how long that will take?

[LZ_Reborn]

I should expect the next day. Depending on where you live and where are they shipping from. Normally if you preorder at the store the get overnigth shipping(from the day before) so there is a chance you could get it the same day (nov-20).

But wait a minute!!! why are we talking about a date...has it been made official??!!!

Note: wow!! by the time I posted my reply this discussion was over and done!!!

I'm picking mine up directly at the store on nov 6 or 20th or whatever the confirmed date might be. If you order it online I guess it all depends on the shipping that you pay for but the date you pre-order shouldn't have anything to do on what date you get it.

[KingofQUEEN48]

ooo ok gotcha so where should i order it from i almost bought it from game stop but i ddint sedn it so where would be best?

[_GABO_]

yea release date is nov 6th

Okay..so where did you get your information? No offense to you, but I really don't trust anything until I hear it from HMX, EA, or MTV.

If you irder online and have it shipped you won't get it the day it releases

[KingofQUEEN48]

[Eman311]

they're known for taking more preorders then they can handle, so unless you show up at open you might not get your preorder until the next shipment.

[LZ_Reborn]

Maybe if there was like a shortage of bundle packs or something :eek: (hope not)....but thats why you are preordering...even if the only get a few you got yours set aside. At least thats what the guy told me...he's probably full of sh...t!! you know what I have no idea!!! Anyone????

[KingofQUEEN48]

Gamepro.

Off-topic: Your avatar gets me angry for some reason.

EDIT: Wow, I didn't see this page, and someone commented on your avy too!

[Xzyliac]

Yeah I've been meaning to let you know that for a while now.

Good thing you have a sense of humor. Hehee...*raises the flame shields*

That's nice. People haven't started disliking my avatar until the past fifteen minutes... rather odd.

that's not true for all games. my buddy "preordered" gears of war from gamestop, showed up around 10am to pick it up, and they had already sold out of "preorders". They're not guaranteed to recieve enough copies to accomodate everyone, and will tell you simply to wait til next week.

I think going after school would be too late.

OOOHHH SNAP!!! if that happens to me, I'll just go loco!!:mad: you'll be hearing it all over the news!! "Man torches local gamestop, no survivors!!!"

[Eman311]

preorder online, pay an extra 20 and have to wait 2 extra days, but have it guaranteed.

or preorder locally, and hope for the best the day of release.

those are your options,

Yeah..it's kinda the one I was born with.

I LOL'd a bit too hard. I dunno you just sound so stiff.

Well that was good, awkward, fun.

Back on topic! What is the topic again?

[JakeFatal]

well if you read on the gamestop page it says " Pre-order the Rock Band Bundle by November 19th at 11am CST with overnight shipping and get guaranteed delivery on the street date of November 20th! If your product does not arrive on the street date, we will credit your order for the full shipping amount! Continental United States only. Must have Overnight Service available in your area. Offer void if you are unable to accept a delivery that was attempted. Not responsible for orders delayed due to incorrect address, credit card information or inclement weather." so what im getting from this you can order it online and get it that day....and btw it says overnight right now is 10 bucks

DON'T HURT ME!

Well, I'll let you live..this time. I really only keep it because it's one of the very few digital pictures of me where I don't have red eye.


Back on topic:
Even though the release date comes from GamePro, I really just want to it straight from the horse's mouth.

[newwaytodie]

GameStop.com and the physical non-internetz version of it. (It's called a "store" usually inside a building that is called a "mall") are completely serperate and that disclaimer about re-imbursement applies to the website orders.

In store pre-orders are always supplied, usually before anyone else is able to buy it.

To that guy who's "buddy got ripped off" on the Gears Of War thing:
Almost every store on the face of the planet had enough copies of Gears, including pre-orders. If his copy was sold before his 48 hour hold period expired, he should have probably contacted the corporate HQ instead of *****ing to you about it.

[karlkaza]

It said in an e-mail I got from gamestop that the release date for the ROCK BAND BUNDLE has been changed from the 6th of nov. to the 20th of nov.

[karlkaza]

All I have to say is..................
IDK!!
lol

[Eastwood]

It is always good to have a game store hook - up :D I get a direct call, no automated voices for me. My local gaming retail community has been very good at having what was reserved in stock.
