Could you please not post any links to competitors so this thread doesnt get removed, thanks.

Gameplay - £37.99 but I dont think this includes delivery??

Does anybody have a better deal than this without using points? I will use codes and stuff but I would like it on release day or before (no HMV :) )

Gameplay delivery is free. I think :confused:
 
Pre-ordered mine from gameplay but i ordered the special edition version. Cost me 99p delivery though.
 
Make sure you post without breaking competitor rules here please.

Virgin seem to have the cheapest limited edtion.
 
suprisingly one of the worst companies for selling PCs to people who have no clue, and that have the worst computer adverts on TV, are selling it for £37.99 (limited edition) delivered. Not going to post the name incase they are a competitor and they probably are, although they're really **** most of the time.
 
If you have never shopped at shopto.net then there but they, its £39.99 and you get £3 off your first order and they are spot on with delivery times.


GEARS OF WAR LIMITED EDITION
Stock: Pre-order temporarily stopped due to high demand.

I guess I will just get in wherever TBH. I will probablly end up ordering from either Game or Gameplay depending on which one is cheaper/I think will have the fastest delivery (which to me is the most important.

However, saying all of that I have a rather large tesco's about 10 minutes or so walk from my house. I am not sure whether I should just try walking there too see if they have the Limited Edition in, if not I will then pop to town and look in HMV, Game or gamestation or a couple of smaller independant retailers to buy the game. At the moment though I think ordering offline from game is probablly the most likely course of action however.
 
oh no... ordered from Virgin...

Product Name Gears Of War [Limited Edition] Price £39.99 Status Backordered


Does that mean that I wont be getting it any time soon after release, have they secretly not go enough and have just back ordered more copies?

IT could just mean pre-order, but I am not sure on how good Virgin are with getting games on release day.
 
ive pre ordered my special edition from gameplay, paid 5 quid for next day deliv just to ensure it arrives on time since i dont trust royal mail standard deliv. however it currently says estimated despatched date 15-16 november. if on the 15th it doesnt change to despatch date today then i'll cancel and just grab it from tescos at midnight on the 17th since im only ordering from gameplay to get it a day earlier
 
its only 99p for delivery and never had a game not make it the day before release day **touch wood**
Thats why i got it from them

So you are saying its almost guarenteed to come the day before, and even more guarenteed to come the day of release?

Well any order i have made with them got here on the Thursday, and i think most folk on here are the same. Thats why i started using them because everybody on here had the games on the thursday :D

But i would never guarantee anything where the Royal mail is involved though
 
I ordered the special-ed yonks ago when it was £49.99 at Gameplay. They reduced it but my order is still at that price. Waiting for an email back from them to lower my order price.

Gameplay is always the best place to order from. Order a few times and they send you a link that will give you 5% off everything apart from the consoles themselves. I use this to whack on first class post and it still works out cheaper than ordering it from other places, and faster by miles than offshore competitors, and I most often get it on the Thursday. Not always, depends on how lazy my postie is feeling.
