[smellymummy]

it's past 10am on the east coast. the eb/etc stores are open. hasnt anyone got it yet?

 

[vorius]

Yup 10:30 am now - I'm at work and expecting the local EB Gamestore to call and tell me my reserved pre-order is ready for pick-up. Unfortunately the roads are a disaster today thanks to the weather so I'm not expecting this call anytime soon

Just called my local EB(Kitchener Ontario, Canada) They said today was the earliest they would get it, but its looking like it will most likely come in tomorrow or thursday.

I called last night in Calgary and they said the 27th as well. I'm going to call them again today and see what they say.

My local EB here in San Antonio says they will get it TODAY at 12:00 or so. The gentleman told me it will definitely arrive today, so that's all I needed.

Also, even though I pre-ordered it, I think he just checked to see if it was arriving today. So it's not just because I pre-ordered it that I'm getting it today.

Perhaps this isolated delayed shipment issue is due to the bad weather up north? Just a thought.

So lets say that a certain friend was too lethargic to preorder. Where would you advise my friend to search for this game today on his lunchhour in downtown Toronto?

let your friend's fingers do the walking. ask your friend to get out the phone book and start calling.

Marcuso,

I haven't called EB yet, but we just had Wilma pass by yesterday so I wouldn't be surprised if it's going to be a day or two late.
The website still says the status is "open," which I think means it hasn't shipped yet. So much for in-store pickup.

It's the one located at University Oaks off I-10.

Just went to EB Games at the South Mall in Allentown, PA.

Guy was VERY helpful, went out of his way.

Said to expect the game 10/26 - Tommorrow; they already recieved UPS so some chance of getting game by FedEx to store.

I have a overnight mail on EBGames also, it still says 'open' as to shipping.

Witchblood! Lucifer's hind teet! Great Thunderballs of Jove! I want that game NOOOW!

 

[rahidz2003]

Ugh. Went to GameStop yesterday, they said it's going to be in stores tomorrow...I'll probably have it by tomorrow afternoon. Until then, I'll be doing classwork, seeing as I won't get any-

On second thought, classwork can wait.

 

[TheDervish]

EBGames at Huntington Station, NY also said 10/26.

 

[TracerBullet]

I called around to three GameStop/EBs in Manhattan... two said tomorrow (10/25) and one said they'd have it after noon... TODAY. I'll probably be disappointed, but I'm jumping on the subway on my lunch break to see for myself.

It hasn't shipped but it's supposed to be here today.

Here is part of a message I just got from Amazon......

Thank you for writing to us at Amazon.com.

Sometimes unexpected fluctuations in supply can add time to our
original availability estimate. We have learned that "Sid Meier's
Civilization IV Presell Edition" is now back-ordered, and our
supplier has not been able to let us know exactly when they expect to
have more in stock.

I'm sorry that you were not notified sooner of this change in
availability.

 

[TracerBullet]

soooooo how'd it go? =D

Not good.

 

[XionNova]

aw.. what'd they say?

 

[Xemu]

Fry's claims they will have it @ 4 PM today, but I suspect that like all the other info coming out here, it won't really be available until tomorrow.

 

[Commander G]

Gamestop out in California said it will definitely be there tomorrow morning at 10
