    Just pre-ordered in Smyths on Jervis St. No money down, just my phone number. They don't know if they are opening midnight yet though .€70.

    Smyths Jervis St. 018782878

    FYI.

    Smyths in Tralee took my pre-order for just the game itself on Sat. Same as prev post, just took name and number for the text alert.
    All Limited edition's pre-booked however.

    Is it around €70 everywhere? (360 version)

    You can choose express post with them where it'll be delivered within 24 hours of your order if you order before 11.00 and of course days before the game comes out. Just for extra re-assurance.

    I can' t say I would recommend them yet, as GTA IV is the only game I have ordered from them, but I have switched by order over from Play.com to Gamesnash.

    Hi guys,

    Just wanted to clarify the above post - we will be dispatching 24 hours before release day ie Monday 28th and customers choosing express post will be guaranteed next day delivery by An Post ( ie Tuesday - the release day )

    Although we will have stock arriving to us on the Thursday / Friday before we are unable to dispatch before the Monday as per agreements with the publishers governing release days etc.

    The majority of customers who order and opt for free standard shipping will receive their game on the Tuesday too but the only way to guarantee release day arrival is by choosing express post.

    Hey, I pre-booked in game stop in the Omni centre Santry for the 360 and was told that there was no chance i would get it on the first day, that i would get it in the second batch about a week later, How does that work then? timecoded reciepts? i was told though if i could get it elsewhere they would give me my deposit back,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,475 ✭✭✭Zico


    I pre booked San Andreas when it came out. No point really, they didn't run out of stock.

    Yeah time-coded receipt, remember everyone that tesco don't do preorders so if you show up early you should get one day one.

    My plan before booking through gamesnash was to use argos. AFAIK they don't do prebooking which means whatever stock they get in will be on sale, but what they do have is online reservation. So if you're stuck for a copy, keep an eye on their site the day or two before, or on release day and see if it pops up and lets you reserve a copy online to collect in store.

    Looks like tesco 24HR for me then. Not pre-ordering only to be left waiting another week.

    Tempted to go with gamesnash too though. Have they got the strategy guide on the website too as I can find it?

    Sorry we are not stocking the strategy guide - we do have plans to roll out books and guides etc but it won't be until later this year. You are of course more than welcome to get the game off us and grab the guide elsewhere. Can't imagine there being a shortage of guides.

    Cheers, just out of interest how much extra is the express shipping?


  • Company Representative Posts: 2,957 ✭✭✭Gamesnash.ie: Pat


    Express shipping is charged by the weight of the parcel. For a single game the charge is €9.00 but as we have said before the majority of customers opting for free stnadard shipping will receive their orders on the Tuesday of release day. It really depends on An Post and your location - most major cities we find our orders arrive next day.

    Thanks ShaneU, will probably end up going to the tesco in finglas or clearwater, or just wait untill the morning, they were very nice in gamestop, told me they would refund the deposit if i got it elsewhere

    I still don't know. I went to ask tonight but couldn't find the Hardware manager or any other manager of any note for that matter.

    They won't :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48 frecklz


    Has anyone said GameStop? You can definitely prebook there. They usually give a free gift when you prebook a game!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,426 ✭✭✭Roar


    gamesnash.ie are now sold out of their allocation


  • Company Representative Posts: 2,957 ✭✭✭Gamesnash.ie: Pat


    We have just had confirmation that we have extra stock available for dispatch on Monday 28th on both the XBOX360 and PS3. Those who pre ordered for the second allocation have been bumped up to the first allocation but there is a few available for anyone who orders now.

    Regards

    Joanne

    I wouldn't worry, game.co.uk sent me an email today saying they were sending out my order today. I then got another one saying they cancelled it as they can't ship the SE version outside the UK and they were very sorry for saying they would etc etc, what a load.
