"I have got GT3!!!!!"

Just popped into EB about an hour ago and picked up a copy of GT3!!

Yes, they are selling it today at the price of £39.99!! I could have got for less tomorrow but I just couldnt wait!!

Gotta go, Ive got some cars to buy!!!!

When I was in Leicester, EB was always selling games early. I got my copy of M:SR for my DC on the wednesday, 2 days before release!

I think it was the same with Ferrari F355 as well.

When I asked someone how they could sell early he said something like:

"If an independant store starts selling early, then we can as well."

Or something.

Umm..one SR store is selling them early.
I'm not complaining at all though, I managed to get a few games the day before thanks to SR.

Cheers

No it is not OK for them to sell the day before release. Our stores will not be selling until Friday morning.

Mailorder is a bit tricky. We always aim to get new releases to our customers for the day of release. Due to varying levels of postal service up and down the country this occasionally results in some getting their copy a day early, others a day late, but most should receive their games on the day of release.

I forsee a mysterious illness tomorrow, I think.

Or a severe case of oversleeping.

I forsee lots and lots of people waiting by the letterbox tomorrow.

And cursing because it didnt arrive before work/school so they have to last all day before playing it.

All the remaining GT3 orders sent today were mailed first class.

Special Reserve have fulfilled all backorders. Some were sent yesterday and remainder today. Therefore some lucky people may have received their copy this morning, while others should get theirs tomorrow (latest Saturday).

There are some postal delays in various parts of the country, so if your GT3 does not arrive by Friday or Saturday please give it another day or two.

What I meant was I wish I had it now. SR had it in stock on Wednesday as they updated the stock. I have got games the day before they are released and have come to the site and seen that they still havent updated the stock.

Probably shouldnt say that I bought it at lunchtime then

EB have done that before. Sell games the day before the official release.

Anyone from SR, is that ok to do that? I thought shope got in trouble for selling things early.
