Harryseaess Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 What places/websites do you reccomend that I pre-order FM09 from? I want them to be reliable so that the game is at my door on release day and as cheap as possible. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmurfDude Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 It's £30 on game, that's not as cheap as possible thehut.com is the cheapest I've found, it's where I've pre-ordered from Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robioto Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Hopefully GAME will go down in price alot of there games usually do before release, also I've got £20 of points saved up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmurfDude Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I can't see it going below £25 on game, it never has done in the past. Anyway, if he had a load of game points saved up he wouldn't be here asking for another site to order from, he'd use game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexta200 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 i dont get why people cant just get £30 together and pay it. its not alot tbh for a game you will play constantly. i know you want it cheaper but i would jus pay the little bit more and get it from play or tesco where i know it will arrive within 2 days of realease.

Chao Yang Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I would like to echo his question, actually. I'm in the US right now and I don't know how I'll pre-order it effectively... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawKam Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I live in Hong Kong and it takes 1 week after the release date to be here in the local shops But they sell at only around $320 (around 23 British Pounds) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanshearer Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 get it from gameplay.co.uk you get it on the day of release or 1 day early Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it hard to understand not everyone works for one reason or another, and even a lot of people who do work have other things to pay for (heard of bills and kids?), so paying £18 instead of £30 is a big deal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rb Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I personally always use Shopto.net, they haven't let me down in getting the game to me on or before release date for the past 2 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmurfDude Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 btw the hut is now £27.93 I'm happy I ordered it before today then yes i have bills too, and too many of them at that. but £12 is really not alot just do an hours overtime at work, or dont treat the kids to that sky box office film that they won't shut up about lol. i know people are very hard off sometimes, but its just £12 more to make sure you get it, who knows what the huts like The hut is reliable, I don't order from sites unless I've heard good things. Anyway it's a redundant point now seeing as they put the price back up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl_272 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 play.com all the way, they have free delivery and always deliver a day earlier than release date in my experience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markypoos77 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 my girlfriends graduation on release day, so wont get a chance to play in until the following tuesday. therefore ordered with the hut as i can live with it being a few days late if thats the case!

Abaddon879 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 For those who ordered it from thehut, be warned they may cancel your order as it was obviously put up with an incorrect price. I've seen it done before. Errors in data input can lead to them cancelling the order or charging you the full price. If you get it for £17.93 then your lucky, but I doubt they would unless it was down as a special offer price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lagarr Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I'll keep my eyes peeled on this forum (as in previous years its been on the shelfs before the release date),jump in the car and head to meadowhall to buy it from one of the few computer shops there.That way I can be sure I'm playing it the first day its out.

But yes they can cancel it Perhaps they were only offering £17.93 for a set amount of orders. We'll see I guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kserasera Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Play.com always on time/early and barely had a problem with them in years... There was one time where they decided to send me a used Mario Kart game with writing on the box which didn't work despite me ordering a brand new one.. but they did give me a discount on the game after and on the whole they provide great service.

SmurfDude Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I emailed the hut and asked whether we'll still pay £17.93 or if they will cancel it and make us pay the new price of £27.93, and received this Sent by The Hut.com on 10 September 2008, 14:16 I can confirm that you will pay the price that was advertised when you placed the order.

Zico Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Gameplay so messed up my order last time round (I got it here in Canada about 3 weeks after the official release date) that I've changed away from them after many years. This time I ordered it from the official site. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andylincoln Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 i must admit this year i will use play.com.... used another site last year came to me 4 days after release..... being a postman i have clicked on that with play.com any game always gets delivered on the day of release or like last year a day early!!!

jaywillis1984 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I've ordered it from Play, may not be the cheapest but I know I can rely on Play to get the game on the day of release. £30. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bongo-Bongo Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I'll probably use Play this year. Usually, I have ordered from Gameplay, but the last few orders from them have taken longer then I would expect so I think I'll give them a mss this time round.

r0x0r Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I'll go with amazon this year. I have amazon prime, so will receive it on the day of release, at work. Plus if the price goes down from the current £30 they'll reduce the price. You always pay the lowest price the game has been since the date you pre order it with Amazon... Which is nice. edit: If i had a game shop on the way home from work i'd take no risks and pick it up in person. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harryseaess Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 Thanks for all the input guys. Play seems like it may be the way to go for reliability eventhough it isn't the cheapest. If any more people know anything about realiable and cheap sites then please post . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djhayes383 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 is it possible somewhere with paypal to pay??? i dont have any credit card and in Germany this game is not available I think there are quite a few people selling pre-orders for it on ebay so would look there if you want to pay via paypal.

chesterfan2 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I have to say I use Amazon for pretty much everything, except new versions of FM, which I get from play.com. Amazon delivered the new copy of FM (I think it was FM2005) a couple of days after release date, wheras play have always been on or before release date.
