F'n Royal Mail

Where's my CM4!!!

Grrrrr. Argh.

I've been replaying Tropico, just ordered Tropico 2, played some BG2, toyed with ordering Throne of Bhaal, watched a bunch of DVDs again, watched Any Given Sunday (Director's Cut) three times this week (my fav movie right now), gone to bed early, and generally been bored.

WHERE ARE YOU CM4 SHIPPED ON 3/28/3!?!?!?!?

*Sigh*

Bee · 04-11-2003, 08:55 PM

I wondered why they sent me two copies...

rexalllsc · 04-11-2003, 08:59 PM

same here...shipped 4/1...still not here.

illinifan999 · 04-11-2003, 09:04 PM

Jeez, I ordered mine last Saturday. Got it on Thursday, with a big ole Royal Mail stamp on it.

Where did you order from?

Abe Sargent · 04-12-2003, 11:48 AM

Actually came in the mail today with a stamp on it "Missent to Canada". Whoops. And the label is clearly marked USA, so I think this was completely Royal Mail's fault, and not Gameplay.

Mine must have been sent to Australia.

rexalllsc · 04-12-2003, 05:29 PM

Still not here...12 days later. wtf.

andy m · 04-12-2003, 06:16 PM

your punishment for supporting leeds.

SegRat · 04-12-2003, 07:43 PM

Mine was sent on 3/31 and still have not got my copy yet. I also ordered from Gameplay. I am curious to see what Country mine was sent to before I get it.

Perhaps SIGames should take these horror stories into account before recommending Gameplay again. I am still waiting on my copy as is a friend of mine. In fact, my copy hasn't even shipped yet. (That I know of.)

Abe Sargent · 04-13-2003, 02:42 PM

This was not a Gameplay issue though. As I said, the label was clearly marked, ROYAL MAIL screwed up. Can't hold that against Gameplay, who shipped the same day I ordered it.

Mega · 04-14-2003, 05:40 AM

Yeah, but it seems that Gameplay orders are universally taking longer to ship and arrive in the US than shipment from other companies.

SegRat · 04-14-2003, 12:04 PM

I Finally got mine today!

GrantDawg · 04-14-2003, 12:10 PM

Still not here. I'm so ticked.

Did you order from GamesPlanet or GamePlay? I noticed on my GamesPlanet order (before I cancelled) that the address was totally botched...

GrantDawg · 04-14-2003, 01:29 PM

Neither. Yeees.

Neuqua · 04-14-2003, 01:50 PM

Ordered mine from Gameplay and just got mine in today.

How fitting that I have 2 tests tomorrow to study for.

The Afoci · 04-15-2003, 04:48 PM

I could have CM5 before you get CM4.

He's either smiling because he got the game, or he killed the Postman.

Speaking of the postman...my house runs along a post office training route, so often we get mail for places nowhere near my house...so I get sketchy about that crap...

But at any rate...it did come

Maybe you should play Tropico 2...once you start CM4 you will never get to the other one.

Mega · 04-17-2003, 05:22 AM

I played the demo for Tropico 2 and was unimpressed. I thought the original was a lot better. And, not that anyone cares, but I'm STILL waiting for CM4. If only I'd heard about gogamer.com before rather than after I ordered from Gameplay.
