Shipping cock up

Recommended Posts

Some stores got the game, but the largest UK games retailer PLAY.COM won't be able to ship for the 19th due to the fact its still in packing process.

Game succeeded in getting the game in np and Gamestation but others haven't.

From six play customers:

14:54 hours 19/06/09

PC Games

ARMA II: Armed Assault (2) (PC Games)

£24.99

'Packing'

Along with the postal strike tomorrow its not looking good.

Yeah, I'm slightly confused.

Ship direct? To who?

I ordered mine from Amazon on next day delivery. I hope mine arrives tomorrow...

The interesting thing is they're not even able to spare boxed copies for journalists. The publication I work for was told today by 505 that the boxed copies wouldn't be sent - but spindle versions (disc only) would be mailed out today/tomorrow (a week later than planned). We'd expected to be able to start playing this morning with the morning post, and have a review done by tomorrow lunchtime... Not a great problem, but it is a bit of a shame for the consumer, and not really the best solution for the retailers. But, at least everyone's getting the same treatment.

Looks like 505 should have kept the 26th date and actually made sure to be able to deliver on it.

Ahhhhhh! What postal strike. Please tell me it's not true! I will have to go postal if this delays the delivery.

Phew! Just looked it up and it's a postal strike in London only.

There's an existing 505 discussion thread.
