PS I just called 1-877-432-9675. Yes I should have it tomorrow! Who knows on the Strategy guide. Should I have listed this post as as spoiler?

NOOOO!!!!!! NOOOOO!!!!! I have called that number and his info shows that their warehouse has not received any shimpents yet, thus there is nothing to ship to the department stores yet. He then continued to pour salt into my wound when he said that if the shipment was too late in the warehouse tomorrow...then it would not be until Friday until they got them...or if the game was suddenly postponed by the manufacturer...then...blah, blah, blah.

I think he stopped when he suddenly realized that he was listening to a grown man crying on the phone.

Larry_OHF My status on www.EBGames.com currently says open. From what I have seen in the past that normally means they are filling the order then later that night it shows up with a tracking number and all. Plus that is what the guy I talked at EBGames confirmed.

I wonder if there is a difference between online orders and in store? I take it you are in store pickup. Even www.Gamestop.com is listing today as ship date. Sorry!

Granamere

Checking to make sure I am not in a dark alley.

Although if you have a laptop that can play NWN you are taking camping with you I am not that sorry. [img]smile.gif[/img]

what a bummer larry, I wasn't even going to buy the game untill yesterday when I saw the preview thread here at IW. Today I stopped by The new software store here in Winchester VA., and the guy was opening a master carton, they had just received 12 copies of Shadows of the Undertide. I gave the guy $5.00 and said hold one for me, I left my check book at home and I'll be back after work. So tonight I play! This new software store is called the Gamestop. Hope you get yours soon.

I just checked. They charged my credit card today also! I need more than one copy so should I see if a local Gamestop has a copy?

Larry_OHF · 06-17-2003, 04:31 PM

Granamere...I am deleting the alley mod...I just called my local store, and he said that he was expecting it tomorrow! Probably before noon if it was by UPS, or after noon if it was FedEx.

Man...I think I'll take a long lunch tomorrow and just sit there at the store until it comes.

YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! !!

TheCrimsomBlade · 06-17-2003, 08:22 PM

Damn I got off late tonight and the software store was closed. I guess I'm no better off than anybody else.
The store opens at 9:00 A.M. tomarrow and I go to work at 10:00 AM. I'll stop buy on the way in and pick it up tomarrow. I won't be able to play untill I get home at 7:00 P.M. but thats OK I just Hope Larrys copy is in tomarrow, He sounds like he is going to blow a cog if it's not. I sure wouldn't want to be his UPS driver if it isn't on the truck. I was the same way when Baldur's Gate II SOA was coming out, I think I drove the the poor guy at the old software store half crazy that day. I spent 6 hours sitting in the store waiting for RPS to make her drop that day. Turned out the regular driver was sick that day and the relief driver ran the route backward. Instead of showing up at 10:30 A.M. the guy that did the relief arrived at 4:30 P.M. I thought I was going to go nuts beside spending 6 hours in a dumb store.

Larry_OHF · 06-17-2003, 10:00 PM

LOL...I actually told the guy at EB not to bother calling me, that I would be calling him... [img]graemlins/1phoneme.gif[/img]
or probably drive over there during my lunch time to wait for the truck to come in.... [img]graemlins/1deadly.gif[/img] "Where's my game"?!

There was a pause, and then he unsuredly said , "Okaaaay"... [img]graemlins/rollsay.gif[/img]

I will take my sword with me... [img]graemlins/ninja.gif[/img]

If that driver doesn't bring it...well...you know...
