if BB can get a limited ammount of PSVR available online later then I guess they have enough to cover their preorder.
The standalone actually showing as 1 available right now

I've seen the bundle available today also. My guess is that as people cancel their orders BB make them available right away.
yup. that usually how it goes.
Which should not have been the case. It was an error on their end. Whether you encouraged that error or not, I don't know.
Amazon sent out the emails in July about it.
Asking for an extra 20% off of the already discounted price is the kind of shady bullshit people pull on the customer service reps that pisses me off and ruins it for the rest of us.

Oh what the fuck...
Now my Gears said it's going to ship on the 14th and get here on the 18th despite it saying a few days ago that it was going to ship on the 6th.
And that's with priority shipping too.

Contact them, I think they tried to pull this shit with my Uncharted 4 if I remember correctly, they told me to remake the order but that would cause my E3 discount to be gone, I had to go through 2 more reps before one made a new order and applied the discount manually.
And my Gears still hasn't shipped...
So what you're saying is that as long as I constantly refresh the page, there may be a chance...?
(should anyone here cancel their pre-order, could you PM me first so I can be ready?)

I did and they said I had the items grouped to be shipped all together. Which is bullshit because A) I never select that and B) I was literally looking at the order as they told me that and it said to ship them out as soon as they're released.

Anyone have any good router recommendations? I'm not too well-versed in this stuff but mine's super old and been acting up so it's time to upgrade. I'm looking for something in the price range of around $120 and I just want something dual band with good range.
Anyone here have any experience dealing with Canada Post after they delivered an item to the wrong address? What are the chances that I'll get my item? Not gaming related, but I bought some stuff from China and it somehow got delivered to Montreal (I'm in Ontario). I contacted the seller and they sent me a picture of the shipping label proving that it was to the correct address. Now it looks like the person signed for my package, paid the customs fees, and is now trying to sell my item on Kijiji...
First post in the Canadian deals forum, please be gentle.
Ratchet and Clank PS4 - $29.99

EDIT: Wonder if this is a permanent drop. Amazon.ca also has it for $30.

I think No_Style (who runs the GameDealsCanada Twitter account/website) was thinking along the same lines, as I think it's dropped to that price on PSN as well.
Also, welcome! You'll fit right in, especially if you start complaining about shipping times.

Check the OT there is always a thread about this.
Nighthawk is great if you can afford it, but I think there is some model of TP Archer that apparently is quite good at a cheap price.
I was in the same boat as you a year ago. Picked up the Archer C7 and it's been great ever since.

Sony dropped R&C to $24.99 on PSN.
Mine still says "being shipped soon", 10 hours later...
Mine was saying that too. Talked to CS, they said they're OOS. So I said fuck you guys, cancelled my order, went digital to play this weekend.
How can they be OOS on one of this year's biggest releases
Ruins what exactly? Amazon.ca is doing what Amazon.com has been doing for years, granting a permanent 20% preorder promotion for prime members.
It was about time.
i-Jest was actually over charged. They charged him $99.95 - $3.97 + tax for both games.

Looks like Amazon had issues shipping the UE edition of Gears 4.
http://www.polygon.com/2016/10/7/13...t=chorus&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter
If they're still getting these orders out, could that explain the standard editions delays?

Yep, so Amazon is giving me the whole "supply issues" excuse for even the standard edition despite how long I've had the damn game pre ordered. 20% off doesn't justify getting games a whole week late, so fuck it, I won't be resubbing, nor will I be using Amazon for anything else after this. Enjoy Gears everyone, I'm going to be salty for a week.
Not sure if this is old or not..but Uncharted PS4 Collections is 29.96 CAD on amazon

Saying the same to me, that their stock is dry.
HOW THE FUCK IS YOUR STOCK DRY ON THE BIGGEST FUCKING EXCLUSIVE OF THE HOLIDAY
Man, Amazon CS must be getting shit on today. I gave them an ear full earlier anyways
And they still haven't shipped Paper Mario. The fuck is going on over there :/

Pure incompetence apparently.
If you're looking at the estimated ship date, it's not always right. I've had games with late estimated ship dates come on release day or the day after plenty of times, even with non-prime shipping.
This is different though because Monday is a holiday. If it were to get here on Tuesday, it had to have been shipped on Friday by the latest.
Friday releases are pretty shitty in general. Even when it's not a 3 day weekend it still sucks to have to wait until after the weekend when your order fails to be delivered on release day.
At least with Tuesday releases you get plenty of weekday buffer.
But I guess that's less of an issue in the US since the USPS does Saturday deliveries for some strange reason. And we Canadians are irrelevant to release date planning.
Well, good for him!

Oh yeah...well if you live near one of their warehouses you might still be in luck.
That should go on the PS VR box, as well as a good quote for video advertising.

Lol I asked them why am I even bothering to pay for priority shipping if I'm not guaranteed to get it day one, and all they did was apologize. Going to call later and hope for better results than chat.
If you live close and its ships from an amazon truck you should get it same day.

Oh god yes my Gears 4 shipped. Crisis averted

I hate you.
They gave me a $10 promotion and made a new order with a waived same-day delivery ($3.99 for Prime if in Toronto/Vancouver) and applied the $10, so $61 total now and it ships whenever they get the stock.
WTF I JUST MADE A NEW ORDER
So yeah, what's a reasonable racing wheel to buy over here for PS4 that has FFB (for Driveclub VR mostly)?
My head tells me I should just get something without it and save money, but my heart knows how awesome FFB feels, just from all the Outrun 2006 C2C I've played in the arcades.
Anyone has some recommendations?
It would be great if CSR would have any idea what the fuck is actually going on in their warehouses instead of whatever way they're organized right now.

I wouldn't personally bother getting a wheel without FFB, it's the FFB that really makes using a wheel great. You're better off just using a controller if you don't have FFB in my opinion.
The Thrustmaster T150 seems to be the best value FFB wheel on PS4 right now.
This thread might help you too.
I'm not sure where I could buy the T150.. I did look into it a few times.
Amazon doesn't seem to have it.
Best Buy I just checked "Cannot ship to Quebec". =_=
Canada Computers and Dell.ca seem to carry it. Do they ship to Quebec though? I'm not sure.
Thanks, $200 on Dell.ca.. I'll have to think some more about it I guess.
Those $50-60 t80 on kijiji are kind of tempting just for convenience of price and the amount of time I'll probably spend on racing games (Not a whole damn much) though
BB website is all fucked.
Got an email that Tomb Raider payment failed and I needed to change my payment info or the order will be cancelled. Log into their website and I'm getting all sorts of weird encryption errors - my credit card number turned into letters and symbols and then failed after clicking Submit.
Call them up and they can't change it over the phone either due to errors. Give it 30 minutes and check my RBC account, realize they have indeed charged my card afterall.
