We were pretty upset because of course they didn't have any extras in-store and when he explained this (I guess if the receipt that printed for us was actually eligible we would've seen their mess up) and he asked them what he could do about this the only thing the guy said (rudely) was we would have to order online....ok why are employees saying to order online if it clearly says not available online and who knows when/if it will be....Im confused and very upset....this is one of my favorite games he plays. It's kinda dumb the way they do this because they don't really realize how much more money they would make if they sent out like atleast 5 more Ultimate Editions to stores on release dates, especially the more anticipated games coming out. They need to get this available very soon!!!  |
The ultimate bundle was ONLY available online. It's not available online NOW simply because they stopped taking orders a couple of weeks ago (this is typical, they usually stop taking pre-orders for limited production releases a week or two prior to release).
I know this because when it was announced, I checked with my local GS several weeks in a row and it was never added to their computer, so I ended up placing my order online through gamestop.com instead.
I currently have a tracking number for the Ultimate bundle that I ordered through the website, it should get here Thursday.
It sucks that you didn't get the game you were expecting to, I've had similar things happen to me several times in the past. However, I don't think you'll find much sympathy from the collectors here, we like when releases are very limited in production, and when publishers DONT make more. Because it means that the CEs we're collecting will become more valuable, and more special as opposed to just a mass consumed product.
My advice would be to start watching ebay, or checkout the marketplace forum here, maybe someone ordered an extra that they'd be willing to sell.
