i recetly re-purchased xenosaga 1+2, on the 13th to be exact, to prepare for the third one coming out on the 29th.

I selected 2 day shipping, it is now the 23rd =/, and as of 5 minutes ago the games STILL have not even left the damn warehouse. And even after they do, I still have to wait the damn 2 days for the shipping >_<. The estimated shipping date is the 28th, i call bull****, WHY THE **** would they wait 15 days just to process the damn order. :S

I sent an email asking if they could refund the shipping charges, (since it doesnt appear im going to get the games til the 30th at the earliest, even though i paid for faster shipping) but it appears they like to delay everything, as they have been sitting on that email for 3 days now.

perhaps it was due to my blunt lil comment at the end =P


"it kinda defeats the purpose of offering 1-2 day shipping options when you sit on the order for a month dont ya think?"


id cancel the order and buy from somewhere else, but thats the only place i could find them brand new =/.



oh and before anyone says "oh you buy from people on amazon, not amazon itself" both the games are "fulfilled by amazon", meaning they ship directly from amazon's warehouses =/.



/end rant

Oh man, I feel for you. I've been in a similar situation once. It was good of you to email them.. but I hope they respond to yours soon. x: I know very well what it's like to be under such stress, having to wait for other people to do stuff for you. I always find it to be eExtremely unnerving.

Call your CC company and tell them that you're a fraud victim.

Your CC company will be like "WTF" and contact Amazon and get **** straightened out.

You gotta realize how many people ordered something on August 23rd, And what kind of shippings they made and what kind of thing they are ordering, that kind of stuff usually holds up your order.

I tend to not base my purchasing habits on statistical anomalies.

I've had nothing but good luck with Amazon.

I've ordered tons of crap from Amazon, and some of it even arrived BEFORE schedule o_o (alphabet of manliness was one of those things)

I haven't had anything bad happen from amazon, but overstock.com is a story >_<.

Ordered a DVD, got it last week. DVD was scratched beyond repair and I've been waiting a week for a RMA code so I can send it back.

well i got my reply from amazon, and it basically just told me to **** off

they wont refund the shipping charges, using the fact that they havent even been shipped yet as an excuse. which (as they so conveniently forgot) was my entire problem to begin with =/.

picking 2 day shipping on the 13th, and having to wait til the 30th is utter crap, i swear after i get the games (i dont want them to cancel the order after all) im going to pester them every day til they
A> ban me from amazon
-or-
B> refund the shipping costs

i wouldnt care so much but i paid as much for shipping as i did for the damn game in the first place >_<


ive never had such a horrible shopping experience online before,



edit, i just made the problem worse, hooray for me.

my brother had the idea that perhaps there was a glitch with my order, so he told me to cancel and re-order it..... now i have to wait til september >_>
