Ross_ Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I'm cool with getting it on release day, but if Amazon get it to me/us on the Monday that would be fantastic! Not sure if they will hold it at a warehouse though GTA Master Blaster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ells144 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 sorry to burst you bubble but that is when it is dispatched to the royal mail or who ever is delivering and they will keep hold of it till the 16 then they will have it ready for the 17th to deliver to you.

y2cwr2005 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 True, the deliveries for GTA V are coming in to Royal Mail depot's separate from other Amazon deliveries. All the pallets of GTA shipments will only be sorted and ready for delivery on the 16th. So Tuesday is when most people will get it. The earlier you pre-ordered the better chance you have of getting it on time though, earliest orders are shipped out first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skozza89 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Nope the Royal Mail aren't to know whats in a parcel. It's only categorized as like 'entertainment package' not 'GTA V' People will still get them monday i guarantee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOGGYASAURUS Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 What you should do is go to your order on your Amazon account and see what the estimated delivery date is. Mine has and still says Sep 17th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a scanning and sorting system which sorts them into the dates and locations for the delivery so most likely a Tuesday delivery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y2cwr2005 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) If the game wasn't coming out on a Tuesday, some copies might get their early. Sorting doesn't operate at full pace on Sunday though which is why it's highly unlikely to turn up on Monday.

Sorry but that is not true. As soon as Amazon etc dispatch it, RM will sort where it needs to be and sent straight away. They only have the responcablity to get it to the person on the address.

Skozza89 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 There's too many pre-orders to hold them all back. If mine has been tracked to my local Royal Mail Depot on the Monday. They aint gonna say 'Is this GTA? Sorry mate you can't have it till tomorrow' Shove it up yer arse. I been getting games 1 day early for years off Shopto.

That's not true i've done it plenty of times before when i had something tracked to my Local Depot. Due to be delivered the next day but to save time i've drove down and picked it up myself. All you need is ID to show its your package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xAtreyux Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 My estimate delivery is also the 17th and the 14th for dispatch seems plausible to me. 50% will receive it on Monday and a 50% chance will receive it on Tuesday but probably take payment for the game either Friday or Saturday. That's I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xchaotic Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 How can I look up what is the Local Depot for a central London (EC1) address? Does it make sense to drop by there on Monday to inquire about the package? Amazon does not normally provide tracking info for Royal Mail does it?

Although I agree with you, mail still travels between depots on a Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzards Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) They wont give you anything in the delivery depot unless you received a "we missed you" card during a failed delivery attempt, which contains proof you live at that address. Regards to Sunday being a non working day, mail will still be moving up and down the country on Sunday, they just do not accept anymore mail into the network on that day, nor do they deliver. The mail centres and depots are still fully operational. Edited September 10, 2013 by Blizzards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
