pre order at gamestation

[casiowatch]

has anyone else done this i did yesterday , will i have it by nexxt sat? this seems quite a reasonable way to get it if u ask me

[Barney.]

Yesterday? I really hope you mean Friday, because I was checking the site all the time yesterday.

[casiowatch]

no i preordered it in the shop in edinburgh

[Barney.]

Ah, I see.

[casiowatch]

is ther any difference from doing it online or at the shop

[Barney.]

Well, you can't preorder online anymore. If you preorder at the shop, then you have to wait until they have enough stock to fill all the preorders before yours, which could be weeks potentially. If theres stock online (which tends to go very fast), then if you order it, you'll have it within a few days as they'll dispatch it immediately.

o ok the guy in the shop said he had 60 downstairs and 70 people having preorderd them it might just be random numbers but i might be 11th probably not though any way the guy said that he would expect it to be next week as they get stock every week to a week and a half so im hoping that next saturday itll be mine cant wait anyway i can atleast wait 2 weks max

[Barney.]

That sounds alright. Whereabouts is this? Also, do you have to put a deposit down for the preorder?

[casiowatch]

erm its on princes street edinburgh and u put a £20 deposit down which u can get refunded if u find one else where or whatever and ur givin 3 days to collect it and if u dont ur carried on until the next order

[Barney.]

That seems quite reasonable, I might as well do that next time I'm in town.

[casiowatch]

and of course you get eac h game for £30 instead of 40 go to the games topics to help me choose lol

has anyone else preorderd from gamestation

[djyorkie]

i pre ordered mine on 5th jan at gamestation in hamilton. had a phonecall on friday just gone to say it is in stock and reservedfor me. going to go and collect it tomorrow (monday) as i have been away for the weekend. can't wait.

if pre-ordering from gamestation stores, try to get on the list in a smaller town (like hamilton). when i went on the list i was only number 14, so didnt have too long to wait.

[casiowatch]

they wer a bit slow for you wernt teh ydo u think ill get it by next week and wot games are u getting ti with andhow do you know what number you are on list

[djyorkie]

not sure what bundle it is. just as long as i get the wii, i dont care lol.
when i placed my name with them for the pre-order, you just fill out asimple form (contact details etc) and they place your number on the form. i asked them before hand how long the list was, and how many before me. hamilton store is very helpful.

not sureif you would haveit in the week. may be worth giving them a call at the end of buisness tomorrow in case anyone didnt collect.

My gamestation is ********, i have been there twice and phoned three times, as they said to do so to see when they have stock. And they never told me they have a pre-order list. I could have put my name down a week ago had i known, and i know they sold some this weekend so i would have been closer.

Just for that i may not bother.
