    Ha exact same thing happened to me when i called up Harveys Kinsale Road R'About in Cork!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,450 ✭✭✭Batesy


    Rang Carrickmines just there. Was transfered to 3 different people who said they knew nothing about it. They seemed a bit taken back by the price too!

    Then one said we can't take pre-orders over the phone.

    Sounds to me like it may have been a mis-print on the ad or something?

    I just got transfered to their games section and the guy was really helpful. He didn't take a deposit or anything so that might be what they meant by saying they cant take pre orders.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 482 ✭✭Sharp


    Out their at lunch, told they don't do pre orders , told him it was one day only.

    Checked with manager and said he'd take the pre order.

    Quoted €64 for the game, told him €37.77 in the paper.

    Total disbelief but checked with head office and took the pre order €37.77 :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 885 ✭✭✭kendragon


    Just went out to My local Harvey's (Limerick) and pre-ordered this... I bought a copy of the paper on the way and just handed the girl the Ad... no problems.

    Oh Yeah... Thanks OP and Co.

    Gah, just rang them, they can't take orders over the phone. Suppose i'll just have to run over there tomorrow at some stage!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,016 ✭✭✭mad m


    Same here, went in and paid €37.77 no problem, pick up tuesday....One of the sales reps told me they are buying it in at €50 and selling it as a loss, just to highlight to people they sell console games....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 764 ✭✭✭ProjectColossus


    Excellent price. HN in Dundalk are charging €37.97 but I wasn't bothered trying to get the price in the paper :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 837 ✭✭✭CutzEr


    One in limerick doesn't.

    You have to go in with the money before Tuesday, and then go back in on Tuesday to pick it up.

    Bull.

    Uh oh, they didnt take any money off me when i rang up :confused: I hope the guy knew what he was on about when he said it was reserved. He also told me that he'd give me a call tomorrow if they were allowed sell it to us early... which i thought was very unlikely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,329 ✭✭✭wcarey1975


    Thanks OP. Pre-ordered this afternoon paid 10 deposit and will pick it up on tuesday.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,450 ✭✭✭Batesy


    Seems to be a lot of confusion from store to store with each having their own policies.

    Think I'll just drop in to the shop in the morning at some stage.

    As mentioned before it's some price for such a big release!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,532 ✭✭✭WolfForager

    Yeah, do you think we will still be able to pre-order tomorrow? Since on the ad it does say "Pre Order Today for this Great Price"....

    What do we think?

    This price was only available today
    as far as I know it goes back up to €64.99 tomorrow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 513 ✭✭✭Antigone05


    my mate works in the rathfarnham branch and told me about the offer the other day..obviously i couldnt say anything or else he would know it was me on boards!!

    the offer of 37.77 is from today until the day launch. so you can go in on tuesday (if they have any left) and get it for that price.

    That's handy. I'll try booking over the phone tomorrow, if that doesn't work I'll be passing Carrickmines when it opens at 9.30 on Tuesday so hopefully they'll have some left :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 746 ✭✭✭absolutegroove


    good deal if your heading north.

    http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/518958/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-2-xbox-?

    hope someone can get it :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 83 ✭✭Musoabuso


    How much in xtra vision?


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,536 ✭✭✭Brimmy


    Xtra vision will know their price tomorrow.

    Read somewhere on hear as well that Tesco will have it at 45 euro for the first 2 days of launch.

    We've had this in work for the last 4 days now but it was clocking in at 70 euro and I was far too broke and working all weekend to get it so might hold off now :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,220 ✭✭✭CyberWaste


    Do you have to preorder this to get it at the good price or can you call in on tuesday morning and if there is copies there can you get it at the price?

    Also is there any major diffferences between the ps3 and xbox version? Like any exclusive content or whatever for one console?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 667 ✭✭✭Linku


    Tesco are advertising it online for €44.99 but the ad just leads to Tesco.ie and there's no further info on that...

    I also ordered in Xtravision and asked for the price when doing so - they didn't know, so I asked where did I stand if others were cheaper and was told there'd be no problem with a refund if they were more expensive


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 314 ✭✭Azphyxi8


    Tesco will have it in their 24 hour stores from midnight tonight for €44.99.

    It's for the young fella. I'm far too old for FPSs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,901 ✭✭✭RayCon


    Just pre-ordered in Hardly Normal's Blanch Branch for the princely sum of €37.77 ... collection tomorrow at 9.30am ... thanks OP


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 118 ✭✭mancduff


    Rathfarnham and Carrickmines aren't taking pre orders today, said offers were only for yesterday (damn my sunday drinking) had the cheek to offer pre order for €65 which is 10 more than the rrp in the sunday paper ad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Not to get anyone into trouble but...

    Just preordered it in HN Little Island there, and the chap said I could collect it at close of business today!:D
    He'd actually have given it to me there and then only they've no stock yet. They're hoping to get a delivery around lunchtime, so I might try him then and take a halfday!;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,892 ✭✭✭Harpy


    anyone else try pre order anywhere today?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 949 ✭✭✭M.J.M.C


    Rang HN in swords,

    Not taking pre-orders over the phone you have to go in

    Still available to pre-order and get for 37 notes :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 539 ✭✭✭shreddedloops


    Anyone know if HN have any of the special editions??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 69 ✭✭paulconway


    Come down to Xtravision in Carpenterstown this evening from 11pm. You wont be dissapointed ;) We have a few hardened editions left, more so on PS3.

    I've been told a price of 55 for normal edition, with a free DVD, half price Accessory (bluetooth headset for 8quid!) and a bunch of rental vouchers.

    Refreshments and food will be provided, as you hang out in our war themed store.

    See you there!
