    Shipping info ?

    Has anyone ever used Amazon Release day shipping? I'm just wondering how reliable it is. I usually pre order and have it overnighted using Gamestop, but that isn't always 100% reliable and it is an extra 9.99. Whereas I was looking at Amazon and they have release day shipping for only 99 cents. So if anyone has used it please let me know your opinion. Thanks!

    i have been trying to find out about online shipping

    You say you usually get it through gamestop. When you say its not always 100% reliable does that mean it dosent come on release day or what. And what time does it usually get to you when it does arrive?

      You ALWAYS get the games on release-date for $.99 from Amazon. ALWAYS

      If you're a college student, Amazon Prime is FREE and it allows you to pay $4 shipping to get ANYTHING in 1 day. Video games are free release-date shipping with Amazon Prime.

      If you guys EVER need deals on any electronics (pc components, video games, etc) just PM me and I'll get you deals.

        I've probably pre-ordered from Gamestop 6 times, 2 of the 6 times the game has not arrived on release date. They refund your shipping if you don't get it on that day, but still it is irritating. Most of the time they arrive by the time I get off work, usually before noon even. Only once did it arrive after 5. I am just wondering about the Amazon shipping though because like I said, Gamestop is 9.99 and Amazon is only 99 cents.

          It's going to be FREE if you're a college student and signup for the free $70 Amazon prime offer (it doesn't renew automatically). Basically, it's the reason I stopped purchasing computer components on Newegg and video games in-store. Amazon offers those $10 and $20 off next game deals all the time...

          YES, I realize I'm basically promoting Amazon Prime, but I love it.

            Or they could simply just google CAG and click the first or second link for any video game related information. Also, I can second that Amazon is very reliable in shipping dates. I've been buying stuff from them since 08.

              Amazon is always whenever they say.

              I've used release day shipping tons of times with them and it's always come on release day.

                Good to know. First time I'm ordering Release Day Shipping and I can't wait. I'm planning on taking a day off next Tuesday!

                  Okay, thanks for the help guys! I'm definitely going with the Amazon shipping over the Gamestop.
