mcchalk Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Just wondering what is the cheapest people have found on the internet to pre-order? I found it for £24.28 at coolshop.co.uk but haven’t used them before so not sure they are ok? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolvesNicky Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 £24.95 on zavvi.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabio MVP Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 £24.95 on zavvi.com He actually found cheaper one. :D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoRobbo Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 TBH I would pay the extra 70p to get it from a more reputable company. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemparowkenastoprocent Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 in Poland you can get it for 109,90 PLN which means about 23 British pounds Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 He actually found cheaper one. :D Its a bit cheaper from the hut as well but I think I'll go with zavvi. http://www.thehut.com/games/platforms/pc/football-manager-2011/10207440.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GioGio85 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I would wait until the deadline is confirmed before pre-ordering. Companies normally offer cheaper prices and "funky" deals closer to launch date Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerTime Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 TBH i don't think your going to find anything better than Zavvi's £25. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGulls Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Chances are that if you order with Zavvi you may have to wait long after the release date for your copy, as last year they released the game a few days before the official release date, and as such will not get there stock allocation until the day before release date this year. They have done this on several other titles and many publishers are standing firm now with sending out allocation to them. Zavvi are also struggling financially and have bad customer service.

Koki Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Do you think that the prices may drop? I remember ordering it from Zavvi last year for less than 20 pounds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Macklam Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I used Zavvi last year and the game came a day late...no biggie I know but I think it was Miles who mentioned this in a thread elsewhere that some didn't get their game off Zavvi until 2 weeks after release. Myself though I have a pre order at Zavvi I will cancel it and use ShopTo this year as a small chance it will come a day early like most of their games do.

lopo89 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 TBH I would pay the extra 70p to get it from a more reputable company. That went bust not too long ago Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerTime Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 If I don't get the game shipped on release I'll just cancel the order and go to GAME and buy it. If Zavvi do ship it on release it'd be fine, I don't find getting a couple of days after everyone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leumd Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Just remember that there was a huge UK postal strike around the time of the game release last year - this was the reason most Zavvi orders were late (mine didn't arrive at all!). Smart companies switched to private couriers during the strike, but Zavvi stuck with the Royal Mail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTime Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I think it'd be worth paying 72p more to get it from a more reputable company (Zavvi). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leumd Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Actually Zavvi are nothing to do with the original Zavvi. When the original company went liquidation, Hut Group bought the Zavvi name to launch a website. Dontcha just love wikipedia =) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
