Like where? do you trust GAME with stock?



I can't, my card expires now 01/2017 =(, and they will try to charge me at the end of February..., so I'm fucked.

Game will probably get more stock than any other retailer (perhaps with th exception of Amazon). For consoles I like to preorder and collect in store to ensure day one, rather than twiddling my thumbs waiting for the delivery van
 
Speaking of GAME

http://www.game.co.uk/en/nintendo-switch-grey-with-the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-1798373

They got zelda + switch for £320, not a bad deal if you missed the £10 off in amazon.

edit: and the chat only told me that it brings the keyring, and they delivery on release day :o .., I'm switching to GAME then.

edit 2: the page says:
Please Note: We have reached our initial allocation of this product, but we are working with Nintendo to bring in more stock for launch day. Pre-order now to ensure you'll get your Nintendo Switch as soon as it becomes available.

I'm confident Amazon will price match that and allow existing orders to add Zelda for £40.

I know, but they have a keyring (?).
I'll keep both for now, I can always return the one I don't want, or pass it to a Londoner gaffer.

Well I'm now slightly leaning towards the Neon colour scheme now, so may as well add another option to my already preorder grey on Amazon. Of course with this order I don't expect day one release, but heck, I may end up cancelling them all and getting the system later. Zelda for a little cheaper is nice as well.
 
Do you think they'll email in advance to tell us if we're getting at launch? I have both orders locked in now (amazon and GAME) and I don't want to be charged for both lol.

edit - only has the "please note" warning on the neon bundle, not the grey bundle, wonder if it's just a mistake.
 
Anyone still after a Switch it looks as though Nintendo still have the grey version to pre order. They sold out of the Neon the other day but the grey should arrive for launch. I ordered a neon bundle onthe 16th and they are estimating delivery for the 3rd March.
 
new listing on Amazon (with no stock warning) gives me hope that the new bundles GAME listed earlier may well be more consoles Nintendo have released to them, and GAME are forcing bundles with their new stock.

That's my understanding. Just need amazon to lower the pro controller price now.
 
GH Live Supreme Party edition is tempting at £20 from Argos. Worried that the service will get taken down, though, at which point I assume it will be pretty much worthless.

Watch Dogs 2 on PS4 is currently £17 on Amazon UK. I've heard good things about this game so I might have to get it for this price.

Sold by Dan Gillis Yoho, shipped from Canada....looks dodgy to me. He has the best price on BF1, COD:IW & Overwatch too. I'd stay clear if I was you.

AmazonUK confirmed by adding a gift card, it actually updates the payment method, so resubmits an order putting you at the bottom of the queue.

Wait what? I was going to pay off my preorder in installments using gift cards, now you're saying I can't do that?

I added £200 on a gift card and it changed my date from 3rd March to the message you get when there is no stock. I called up and they confirmed that changing the payment info (or adding gift card) would effectively cancel the existing order on the system and then place a new one for the same item using the updated details.

In your case, I wouldn't advise doing it unless you are speaking to a customer services person who might find a way to do it.

I since cancelled my Jan 13th order and placed a new one on the link above (thanks to whoever posted that) and that now gives me a March 3rd date.

Well that sucks (I've also confirmed it with them on twitter). There's a thing where you can apply gift cards to your Amazon account balance rather than a specific order though, I've asked them if that screws it up as well. Otherwise I guess I'll just have to try and use a savings account or something. I don't really want to do that though because it's at risk of getting raided for unexpected expenses.

EDIT: confirmed with Amazon that applying the gift card to your account doesn't allow you to get around this problem either as you still have to apply the account balance to your order. Bank savings account it is then.
 
I think that I need a new mouse - my Logitech Performance MX seems to be dying on me. I have my eyes on their new MX Master, but it's just a little pricier than I'd like (£64 from Amazon UK). Is anyone able to recommend anywhere good that I could look for a better price? I've found an eBay listing for £55 (new), but <£50 would be ideal.

Quick question to all how is the website thegamecollection is it good on getting preorders and is the security up to a good standard on handling card details?

The Logitech G402 is a decent mouse and only 32. Its successor, the G502 goes for 54. You can find it refurbished in the other sellers tab for 45.
 
Is there anywhere in UK to get a New-3DS XL for less than the current going rate of £195?

It also seems like the only available colour is the white one, but only interested in the black or blue one.

CEX, and Ebay.

Like, those are currently the only options I can think of that's also in stock. If you've got a more local secondhand shop, there might be stuff there.

£179.86 at Shop To, or £179.99 at Argos. It's £169.99 at Tesco Direct, but is out of stock.

You can't link to Shop To here, but here's the Argos ones.

Blue

Black

Edit: Oh wait, looks out of stock sorry. It didn't say until you clicked through to the item.
 
Amazon says it's expecting stock in 10-11 days so I'll wait to see if the price goes down to ~£169, otherwise might have to order from Amazon Germany.

I believe it's also out of stock at Shopto as well as Argos, and Nintendo's own UK store.

Also, would rather not get one second-hand.
