That's weird, yesterday it seemed like it was going out of stock everywhere.

This will be my first shopto order, paid by Paypal of course...I wonder how it'll be.

Shopto are pretty on the ball. I pre-ordered DMC HD collection 4 days before it came out. The next day it was at my door.
 
Game's UK site isn't letting me add my credit card :( Dang.

Edit: Heh, it let me add my card just as the deal stopped existing :P
 
Yes, they fixed it while I was still adding points at my basket some hours ago. Greed is not always good apparently, damn you Gordon Gecko.

By the way I got a 3DS a short while ago, and I am still waiting for a price drop for any of the really good games, but I am out of luck so far. At least for a short while, there were chances some weeks ago to grab MK7/SF64 etc for less than £20. Is there anything good out there that I haven't spotted yet? Even a sub-25 GBP SML3DS would do (yeah I am getting kinda desperate).
 
My order from Zavvi that was dispatched on April 26 has not arrived yet.
When should I contact them about it? I live in Israel, so that must be a bit different from UK/Euro deliveries

You'll have to wait up to a month before you can file a claim. I live in the Netherlands, almost next door to the UK and a Zavvi delivery can still take up to 3-4 weeks.

mine was dispatched on April 25th. Still nothing (although it could be in the post box at home, I'm at work currently). Nothing new for me (I'm from Croatia). As long as something arrives in 2-3 weeks with no damage, etc. I'm happy.
 
Looks like Game aren't cancelling the 400msp code mix up.

I did a test order of one code early on and I got the code right away. My second delayed order of multiple codes just arrived. Third test order to see if they were only letting one code per order arrived just before the second one did.
 
My Disgaea 4 that was shipped on the 7th of April still has not arrived here.

However, a friend of mine who runs a local game shop told me that there something broken with the EU mail delivery right now. He claimed that some MTG boosters that he sent to the neighboring country took 3 weeks to arrive.

So I am willing to wait a bit longer.

I was wondering about your Disgaea. My copy got shipped on April 26th and it arrived two days ago, May 8th. But I'm in Belgium which is ofcourse a lot closer to the UK.

When I do it I get all the way to "enter your CC's CSV" and it still says £3.50??

You were probably too late. I ordered before it was posted here.

It should have displayed like this if you ordered before they fixed the offer.

Code: 
Total cost of products: £3.50
Total discounts applied: -£1.75
Delivery charge: £0.00
VAT included: £0.29
Order Total: £1.75

Just in case you are trying to order now, they fixed it yesterday about 90 minutes after it was first spotted.

Ha, I did pretty much the same thing. Got the rest of my codes today too, got an abundance of points again now. Hooray!

The deal didn't last very long, as stated a few posts up it's been over for a while.

I gathered that, but the post I quoted was only 15mins old, and gave the impression that it was just taken advantage of.

That, and the fact that if you look on Game it has a red "On Offer" blob on the pic of the points, yet at £3.50 for 400 I fail to see what the offer actually is.


I need to find an alternate place to provide me some moon monies. I have crap to buy on XBLA :(
 
possible shipping delays over at Zavvi:

Following the continued growth of our business, and to improve our service to you, zavvi are in the process of moving into a brand new warehouse. Our new warehouse has doubled in size, and is creating lots of new jobs in our local area.

Please bear with us while we are moving stock, as this is delaying some despatches. We expect normal service to resume next week.

From all the team at zavvi, we would like to say thank you, for both your patience and your custom.

How is Binary Domain on the PS3? It's £11 on ShopTo and I think for that price I'd be willing to miss out on the PC version.
 
Thank you for placing your order for UEFA Euro 2012 with us.

We would like to apologise as the item featured on our site displayed that the points card was for the value of £20.00. Upon receipt of your item you may have seen that the value of the points card was £16.00.

We are delighted to advise that we will now be issuing a refund to you for £4 back to your original payment method.
