Preordered from EB Games yet to ship...

February 22, 2006 7:36:51 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
I preordered this game on Feb 6. My reason for ordering from EBgames was to ensure the big games stores stocked this item. As of 7:33 PM EST EB'sexcuse for not shipping is waiting for product arrival. I will probably not order any new games from them online ever again this is substandard performance. I contacted their customer service yesterday and have yet to recieve a reply. Any one else having similar issues with EB games?

You may not have yet read the notes, but this isn't necessarily an EB issue. I'm not a fan of EB, but apparantly there is a shortage of the games sent to retail, including online outlets (like my Amazon.ca order). I think everyone is pretty much in the same boat, unless you get it from Stardock directly.

On plus side I hadn't even posted this article for more than 10 mins when I seen response on the hold up (IN the home section of comments), thank you very much. I will not cancel order and will wait for product to ship. Thank you

Maybe I should held off telling all my friends about the game till I got my copy. Live and learn. Looks like the game will be a big hit.

I have also had this problem with EB in Eugene Oregon. They claim that when the program goes off notice on their computer as being "backordered" It usually means that it is shipping, add a couple days to that. So at best Friday for us here in Oregon.

I had pre-ordered from Gamestop... but being told they didn't have it yet, and my local Best Buy had 4 in stock Tuesday... I decided to just go with Best Buy as I wanted it right then on launch day.

Gamestop will get my money sometime later... it was store credit I had used for the pre-order. Can't turn that into cash.

Which version did Best Buy have? I ordered from EBgames.com and it says backordered (meaning shipping date has passed and still not stock).
