I swear I remember preordering Fire Emblem Special Edition on BestBuy.ca but I cant find a confirmation email or see the order listed on my account.

I'm pretty much screwed right? what to do?

For those who ordered LOZ TP during the Cyber Monday 30% off promotion.. good news:

http://plug-in.bestbuy.ca/t5/Video-Gaming/Twilight-Princess-HD-Amiibo-Bundle/m-p/149533#M13392

Only catch is that they are honoring only the orders that were placed during the Cyber Monday promotion.

Ironically I had an order with them, but then switched it to Amazon.ca
And then I recently lost my 30% off my Amazon order, who wouldn't reinstate, and now I am back at BB but with 20% off. Oh well, lol

I did it!!! Bless whomever suggested canceling and re-ordering. It only took about a couple minutes after I canceled for it to show up in stock again.

Got charged this morning for sfv and I still haven't gotten a tracking number. Does it usually take this long? Amazon.ca btw.

How does this happen, exactly?
Click to expand...

Karma, lol.
There was a whole thing (I explained several pages back) but it involved transferring a 30% discount from one game to another, and cancelling the first game, except that first game was linked to my TP HD order for 30% off as well, so I lost it on that, and Amazon wouldn't reinstate it, but I don't hold it against them because they still did something for me that they had no reason to.


Being said... would be nice if my credit card would be charged for the TE2+ at least already (Fates SE would be splendid too, but the TE2+ is at least already out, and I don't expect Fates this week anyhow).

Jealous of everyone getting their fight sticks, SFVs and Fire Emblems shipped out. Amazon has always delivered day 1 for me, yet the estimates for all three are "Feb 24th - March 4th."

Ditto.
Minus SFV which I didn't order, lol

I updated my FE shipping and it changes from shipping 2016 to shipping next week. I think they're going to try and ship it with Street Fighter V. I'm thinking I might cancel SFV because of how barebones it seems to be right now.

Nice to hear about Twilight Princess HD though. I have two ordered, one standalone @69.99 and one during Cyber Monday.

Amazon failing big time to obtain my copy of SFV...

Can't believe they're out of stock for such a game, did they really expect to have a low quantity of orders for this series?

Aaaaanyways, at least they shipped my copy of Project X Zone 2.

Well..

I had all the items in my cart, asked a CSR if I could get the 20% discount

She told me to place my order and that she would apply the discount manually

This is the result

i don't understand. you asked for the discount before checkout, even though it would be applied after checkout?

Hey to those who got their copy of Project X Zone 2, there was supposed to be a preorder bonus right? Mine didn't come with any sort of code to redeem, so I'm wondering if it's just me.

Same thing happened to me. I just ended up cancelling it and getting it on steam for $47. Same amount I would've paid on Amazon.

Re: My SFV order on Amazon..

I got an email today with the whole "I'm sorry it's out of stock" BS but one line really confused me.
I ordered in June during E3.. and this is what the e-mail stated:

I've checked an see that "Street Fighter V - PlayStation 4 " was listed as "Not in stock" when the order placed and also the current website availability of this item is "Temporarily out of stock. Order now and we'll deliver when available."

Uh... It was sold out already in June 2015? Give me a break.

The promotion wasn't applying in the cart, I asked the CSR if she would apply it. I pointed her to the promotion, said the items specifically excluded were "Skylanders, Infinity and CEs, accessories and game consoles"

So she told me to proceed with the order and that once it was complete she would manually adjust the prices

Except I guess she calculated wrong. I was speechless.

Nah, it's a joke on the "hate" that happened a few pages back. Just poking fun.

If it's the bonus codes, they were emailed a while ago.

Is the price going to be automatically adjusted or do we have to contact them?

It will be adjusted the week of being charged so no need to call in. The new PR guy has more details at the link

What the fuck. BB wouldn't let me adjust the FE order on the condition that I had to have ordered 2 items. I wish I was an asshole and ordered 2 copies then.

I'm pissed about this but I'm still happy to have the game at all.
