Ipre-ordered on September 10 from EBGAmes.com, and selected to have my disks delivered for store pickup. This morning I called to make sure that games was shipped and that a bonus disk was reserved for me. I was told that daily shipment did not yet arrive and not to worry about it. I asked someone to call me when they get in. No one ever did. After work today I went to pickup the game anyway, and was told that they only had a limited availability of bonus disks, they were all out,and I don't get any.


DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH EBGAMES!!! DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICES!!!

Seems to be a common problem. Tiggs referred this to marketing earlier. Hopefully, those of you that pre-ordered from EBGames will get some satisfaction.


At least the only thing you are missing is the FlashSpeeder, which, while kind of neat looking, is no better than any other vehicle.

the only good thing about the speeder is if it gets blown up you can request a new deed on the spot for 20k and ride away.

WOW WOW WOW Someone actually is blaming the store and not SOE or the devs. If only everyone would assign blame correctly we could get rid of all these complaints about Europe. The fault is with Activision not SOE.

Its just aflash speeder. If I havnt already used my 2 copys of the disk, I'd give both of yous one of the code. really, your not missing much. Its 20k to replace if it gets destroyed. cheaper to just buy a crate of landspeeders.

No, I'm never doing business with EBGames because:


1. They didn't send enough disks to the store to cover all pre-orders


2. They did not follow up with me


3. They lied to me when I call them


4. They gave me attitude when I confronted them in the evening about not having my disk and having deceptive business practices.



The point is not even the speeder, although I really wanted to have one for emergencies, and it just looks cool. The point is that they advertised and promised something, and I want to receive what I'm entitled to. And will rather spend my hard-earned cash somewhere else if they can't deliver.

Some people don't kno what "not jumping to conclusions" means. I purchased on September 10. Well before "limited time" ran out.

I just politely sent an email to them saying that I was concerned I would not be getting my bonus disc. Shortly after, I received an email stating that I'd be receiving the bonus code for the Flash speeder sometime within the next week, as many other people have.
