TomHAVFC Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I've just pre-ordered FM09 and another game from Amazon. Now on the site it says that they don't release the game until the 14th for both games but after I pre-ordered them it says that the games won't arrive until between the 20th and the 26th of November. Does anyone know why it says it will take so long? I don't expect it to arrive in a day but a maximum of 12 days? that's a load of rubbish. Is it because I've ordered 2 games at the same time?

I don't understand this, maybe you could try somewhere like Play.com who near enough always deliver within 3-4 days maximum! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

YOLO Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Big mistake. I find Amazon really poor at delivering on time. Play.com was your best bet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter-evo Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I'll try and cancel them and try Play.com then. That's where I have ordered mine. Play.com also sometimes sends it too early resulting on people getting a game earlier than usual! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just got to wait till my mom gets back so I can use her credit card P.S. On the Amazon site it said it wouldn't dispatch the game until the 17th! the 17th!.

Your old man is a cool man! To right he is, though I think he is believing that if he buys it he will get more of a go on it, I think not. Oh well, atleast you got it sorted and will be playing nonstop over the November 14th weekend! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
digsy11 Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Why not just buy it from Tesco? the price there is always 30quid an you get it when YOU want it.How much is Play charging? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the thing is, buying it from Tesco would mean going to Tesco after school when I've got coursework to do and when I can't be arsed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know whether to go with "thehut.com" and get it late but pay less, or go with Play where I pay more but get it on time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
