Oh my, you weren't aware mate.

Fishpond is the WORST when it comes to preorders. They're legendary for offering cheap prices on a preorder CE but when push comes to shove, they're also notorious for never having stock either at all or on time of release.

Don't ever, ever use them for preorder CEs. And they make it difficult to contact them as well too.
