Amazon Preorder

[aparks87]

Sometimes (not saying this is the case) but Amazon delivers it to your local post office to make sure it gets to you on release day...and it will sit at the post office until mail for the day gets sorted and put out for delivery. So Amazon's shipping status wont change until the post office puts it out for delivery. This happened to me last year with Madden. Fingers crossed for you this is the case. Still BS either way. Sorry man.

BS indeed brother. Can't be handling all this anxiety at work, lol.

Mine just updated to say delivered before 8 PM Wednesday. UGGHHH....

Got some good news and some bad news...

The bad news is yes, it's not coming today. Will be Wednesday (per the internet) or Thursday.

The good news is, I'm getting it for free (Deluxe $80).

Amazon has ONCE AGAIN gone above and beyond expectations, and have given me an $80 credit to my Prime Account.

So, wife bought the game at Best Buy just now, and it will be ready when I get home, and when the other comes in the mail, I'll return it to BB

I've never pre-ordered a game from Amazon, but my wife decided to buy FIFA 17 for me because she had a gift card and we have Prime. She sent me the shipping email that said the game is scheduled for Wednesday instead of today. That's pretty disappointing for sure, and I'll stick to my usual Gamestop choice for new games!

See my above post and maybe you can get it for free too

I will say that I have reordered quite a few games before, and this is the first time this has happened.

Josh buddy, buy it digital next time. I was playing it last night from my PSN pre order.

Yeah I would but I have abysmally slow internet. AND, more importantly, I wouldn't get $4 for trading it in to Gamestop
