So I really hope we do not get cheated out of the promo code..

To answer my own question, someone posted on reddit a screenshot ( https://imgur.com/ChEmZh7 ) of a discussion with ShopTo.
It says that backordered items before nov 20th, will receive FF item codes even if they are sent after the end of the promo.

Edit: NVM, ErryK beats me to it few posts above ^^

What the hell? Hoi SE, did you check the consoles your playerbase uses because it's not all PS4. This is almost as bad as that whole magazine thing - the only thing that makes it better is that you don't have to be lucky enough to get 3 items instead of just one. Though you already can't get that 1 if you don't have a PS4. Well, you can, but it's utterly wasted money. Just put the damn item on the cash shop, I get players make stupid demands a lot but just this time listen to your playerbase.

This is very good news, placed a backorder again and at least it seemed to appear right away on the orders page this time. Now the LEAST SE could do would be 1) send them a stock ASAP and 2) delay the deadline of validity of codes in case of delayed shipment

why couldn't they sell Digital timecards??? you know that shit that doesn't go out of stock ever because it's digital???? they really didn't think this through at all.

Amazon sells them and the SE online store sells them, even GAME sells the ffs. They couldn't give ShopTo the rigths to sell them digitally to avoid this BS? also the PC only players, my condolences, this is all the can buy that will benefit them. This whole event is messed up.

While their email system is probably messed up, to the point of sending you the same email twice, both of these emails are from the same address. If you check the links in both emails, you'll notice that they're the exact same links.

Unprofessional (like the entire promotion)? Sure, but there's nothing false about the emails.

Oh wow, this seriously sucks. I swear, in every MMO I've been in, my EU bretheren get shafted.

Shame on you Squeenix. Seriously.

Except the links are different on both e-mails, and the both e-mails are about same thing but content differs greatly - the one I suspect being false has no indication of even linking to the same website it comes from. And even the advertisement on the e-mail has the exact same links, instead, you know, leading to whatever it advertises.

ShopTo is the worst website ever. Why in the world would you do that, instead of amazon ? ugh.

I registered an account with Shopto, and now I'm trying to register an account for my partner but it won't let me because you can't have two Shopto accounts with the same address. D:

If I make two seperate purchases on the one account will I get two codes so he can have one too?

I can't believe you can only have one Shopto account per household that's really inconvenient.

Is this the promotion we in Australia should be using, or is something else coming our way? Thanks.
