firetron Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 This was my first ever purchase off the web, so i dont know what to expect. I chose Amazon due to all the good stuff i hear people say about it. Anyway my question is, i bought the 360 special edition with express delivery on Feburary 11th 2008, is it 100% certain the game will arrive on April 29th??? Also iv heard people say that they got orders before the official realese date, could this happen considering i got express delivery? Order Date: 11 Feb 2008 Items not yet dispatched: Delivery estimate: 29 April 2008 1 of: Grand Theft Auto IV: Special Edition (Xbox 360) Sold by: Amazon EU S.a.r.L. ^^^^ Thats what it says on my account. and below is what the email says, (i recieved this email when i ordered, FEB11th 08) Delivery Method: Express Delivery Delivery Preference: Group my items into as few deliveries as possible Dispatch estimate for these items: 28 April 2008 1 "Grand Theft Auto IV: Special Edition (Xbox 360)" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruxism Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I have done exactly the same yet with the normal edition ( ) I doubt it will arrive early because I read somewhere the Royal Mail is making a special run Monday morning just for the GTA next day deliveries. However I may be wrong and if it is dispatched Saturday you may well get it Monday. Just sit tight with crossed fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just aslong as i get it 29th... I'd say you have a 95% chance of getting it on the 29th. Coming from someone who shops online a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqex Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Amazon are pretty good and if you've paid for express delivery you should get it no problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Invisible Lines Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Funny, I pre-ordered mine July 2007 and just recently the estimated delivery date went from April 29th to April 30th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherDave Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'd say it's a fair bet you'll get the game on the 29th. Amazon have been pretty much spot on with their estimated delivery dates in my experience. Having said that though, my account tells me the following... Order Date: 21 Jan 2008Items not yet dispatched: Delivery estimate: 25 April 2008 - 26 April 2008 Sold by: Amazon EU S.a.r.L. It's probably wishful thinking to expect the postman to deliver GTA on Friday to be honest, s'pose I'll just have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope with express deliver, mine come on time Thats all i care about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
