    I feel your pain. If mine doesn't arrive either, we can be angry together.

    It won't be productive, but it'll make us feel better, right?

    I'm just planning on getting drunk and playing Rage :D

    Ah, it's alright when it's patched. Fun, stupid shooting at people. Might play through Crysis 2 with the DX11 patch.

    Sorry :-) I got screwed for black ops. I drove to the post depo trying to get it with no luck. I just rented it from xtravision in the end and was left waiting an extra week for it to be delivered. Can't rent it with BF because it needs an online code

    Buy it and send the gamestop copy back, thats what I have done.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,143 ✭✭✭bubbleking


    courier delivered it this morning - €3 extra for express post = bargain


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,474 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    just as a matter of interest. why would anyone buy these games online, when you can go into gamestop on the day and just pick it up..

    Considering all gamestops are a pain in the arse to get to for me (XtraVision is easy enough though) and they normally deliver on time, its usually a good choice... Not so much this time though...

    main reason i went gamestop online was it was the cheapest, plus last time i got my game a day early.

    not this time though

    did you pay for that on top of the normal postage, as in you opted for normal postage then once it didn't come paid the courrier?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54 ✭✭harryohh


    Got email on wednesday saying it was dispatched by gamestop via standard post

    Wondering how I still didn't get it today.

    Exact same , Went into gamestore and bought a copy , when my "preorder" arrives I'll bring it back still sealed with the receipt and get credit towards mw3 I think.

    Pc version by the way.

    Are they not doing a deal where you trade in BF3 and get MW3 for 99c anyway

    Same here and didn't arrive today(Friday) of course.Ordered it over a week ago and it was only shipped on Wednesday????????? I blame myself really i was warned about Gamestop but i was suckered in by the price.But lesson learnt i can tell you that.Be lucky to get it next Tuesday at the earliest:mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,378 ✭✭✭Nodferatu


    i got mine from gamestop today but the guy behind the counter gave me a sheet with redeem codes for the gun pack for the 360, i have a ps3, i hope i can take them back tomorrow for the ps3 code instead

    The nightline website says that they operate on saturday mornings but i dunno if thats true or not


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 413 ✭✭Skittle


    So would what I'm about to suggest be possible:

    Walk in to GameStop shop today and buy the Limited Edition for €39.99 and install that version. When the game arrives in the post, use the weapon unlock codes (I think they come in a separate sheet of paper), and then bring the version I got in the post (I presume it's still wrapped in cellophane) back to the GameStop shop and use my receipt to get a full refund?

    Didn't get mine either yesterday, was using this as a test for MW3, think I might have to cancel my pre-order now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,378 ✭✭✭Nodferatu


    im really disappointed in the game. alot of campers. doesnt seem to be a way to mute other players. cant leave a lobby have to wait until next round starts and quit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,160 ✭✭✭tok9


    Just bought it in tesco.

    Will I get a refund back on the copy I bought online or will it just be store credit?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,463 ✭✭✭Trevor451


    Under distance selling regulations you are within your rights to return the particular item within 7 days.

    You should get a refund however they might not refund shipping costs.

    http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/consumer_affairs/consumer_protection/consumer_rights/distance_selling.html

    Be sure not to open the seal of the game though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,845 ✭✭✭Jet Black


    Or just drop it in and save postage costs and waiting. From their site.

    I want to return a product I bought online

    Not what you thought? That's okay; you can return products anywhere up to 7 days from receiving the delivery as long as the product and packaging are in brand new condition.

    The easiest way is to pop down to your local GameStop store and return the items across the counter for a quick exchange. Remember to bring your invoice with you. Before you call to your local store please contact our customer service centre at hello@gamestop.ie

    If you prefer you can send it back to our online returns department, keep in mind though that if shipping back an item it will take a few days for us to process the return/exchange. Before you send it back to our returns department please contact our customer service centre at hello@gamestop.ie

    I read that and was worried about the part that said "Quick Exchange" instead of refund

    Just to follow up on my last post. Went to refund it in gamestop and the best they could do was give store credit. I had a bad feeling about the way it was worded.

    That said I got back 50 euro worth of credit which is more than what i paid.

    Can I use it on there website?

    Edit: Just checked and it says they aren't yet


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 2,612 Mod ✭✭✭✭horgan_p


    Mine arrived today (PC ver. in cork)
    Just as well they don't do organ transport.

    As I mentioned before , store credit suits me fine , I'll just use it to get mw3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,923 ✭✭✭kearneybobs


    Mine hasn't arrived as of yet. :( It was shipped last week (thursday). They usually get to me on launch day. It it doesn't come tomorrow I'll shoot them off an email and see what they can do about it for me.
