en4rcment Posted March 17, 2003 Share Posted March 17, 2003 Just needed a place to vent my growing frustrations. I pre-ordered GR Gold from a local Electronic Boutiques store near my house. That was back in the beginning of December. Finally UBI learns how to fit three games in one box and releases the product...that was March 12. The game is available for purchase through UBI's website with free 2-day air UPS in the US, but my local retailer has not gotten the game in stock yet. EB's status screen reads BACK ORDER according to the store clerk. Did UBI not release enough of these game units? Or is EB having another problem? I called the phone number on the EBgames website and they told me that they are not affiliated with the stores since the stores are all franchises.... I'm starting to lose my cool I'm thinking of seeing if I can cancel my pre-order and buy it right from UBI. Has anyone gotten this game yet in the US? If so, please tell me where to go.... As always..thank you for listening to my rant... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenHunteR Posted March 17, 2003 Share Posted March 17, 2003 Hey man, felt the pain wit ya. I had same thing here in Tennessee with EB. It was back ordered then said it may be in Saturday but no. It was not. So i went to Best Buy. They had it stock in the warehouse. Yoohoo. Awesome game. But having some probs playing MP, hopefully will get that worked out soon. Good luck on getting it.
