Well the lovely people at GAME have decided to cancel my GC order. I checked the tracking system to see where my order was and it said my order had been canceled! I dont wether its GAME's fualt or the fualt of my bank for not putting my money in, but either way im not a happy camper...

SR's prices aren't good enough. Anything you can buy here is easily found cheaper elsewhere - to top it off, they force you to pay the membership fee before you can shop! I hardly shop here anymore, there's no incentive

That's what i'd do.

I'd keep ordering until they accept it. They accept my orders when I haven't even got any money in my account so they must not like you or something.

I got my Cube from Game, ordered the Zelda bundle on a Wednesday afternoon and received it, and the games, the next afternoon by courier - which was free 'cause the order was over £100.

Every time I order a game from Special Reserve it fails to arrive on release date, or if in stock takes several days even to be dispatched. Plus GAME give you reward points, which works better than Reddies.

If you buy small cheap items from Special Reserve they're great, but it's a stupid system for anything else. Example, buy a 9.99 PSone game, get one reddy. Buy a Gamecube for £129.99, get one reddy. That's fair....

Why not just order again from GAME and hope some incompetent system/person doesn't cancel it this time ?

I would recommend you get from Game as well, its much cheaper, plus the Platinum 'Cube looks great - I got mine from Game within couple days and imported an Official Platinum Controller & Platinum Wavebird controller. Well worth it. Why dont they sell any platinum accessories over here?
