Has anyone that preordered ARR received notification that their game has started shipping yet? I notice alot of other companies have already begun their shipping processes. Amazon UK was really late to the table when it came to ARR orders and im wondering if theyll now be able to fulfil those orders.
Amazon UK shipping ARR yet?

Game dispatched my PC CE edition yesterday 10am, so I'm expecting the game to be at my house either today or tomorrow since they use Royal Mail First Class, a little before the launch date!

Ive noticed theres been a price drop on the PS3 collectors edition on Amazon. Its now selling for £45.99 whereas my preorder is still showing as £50.99. i Had this email a while back too:-
Hello,
We’re writing to let you know that we’re offering a FREE Release Day Delivery promotion for qualifying video games, consoles and accessories in the ‘PC & Video Games’ store from now until 31 December, 2013.
As someone who has already pre-ordered a qualifying item with Release Day Delivery, we'll be removing the First Class delivery costs from your order as part of this new FREE Release Day Delivery promotion. This change will be automatically applied to your order before we send it to you and you won't be charged for the delivery.
We’ll dispatch your order prior to the release day, with the intention that it arrives on the day of release. -

ok people Amazon update!!
Hello,
I've checked your order #xxx-xxxxx-xxxxxx and see that your pre-order qualifies for Release Day Delivery.
The release date of Final Fantasy XIV: Collector's Edition (PS3) is August 27, 2013.
Your order is scheduled for dispatch on August 23, 2013 to deliver on August 27, 2013.
As you've mentioned that the price has now changed to £45.99 from £50.99, I would like to let you know that you'll be charged £45.99 only.
I'm sorry for the misunderstanding caused. You were not able to see this on your order but I assure you that you'll be charged the new price £45.99. You'll soon see this reflected on your pre-order page.
We don’t debit money from your payment card until just before your items are dispatched. Your payment card is charged approximately 24 hours after the items in your order have entered the dispatch process.
I hope this helps. We look forward to seeing you soon.
Did I solve your problem?

I ordered mine online from Game [UK] and the order status is still on "Unshipped"
Anyone else who ordered from them and have the same issue? They better not tell me they ran out of stock or that they canceled my order...
Edit: Just as I posted this and refreshed the order's page, it changed to "Shipped"... what kind of sorcery is this lol -

With the postal strike tomorrow and the Bank Holiday on Monday, I'm skeptical we'll be receiving them on the 27th... I hope I'm wrong though. Maybe they'll use a private parcel service instead, heres hoping. I also check my order summary just now and it seems like they've updated my order to reflect the recent price drop.

I've just checked my Amazon order for the PS3 CE and it still says 'unshipped', but I also had the email about the release-day guarantee.
I suppose it doesn't really matter if it arrives on Tuesday for everyone with early access, as it's been confirmed that EA will carry over till the 30th. I just want my coeurl mount :) -

My CE order from Amazon UK arrived today but I was out and unable to collect it :( Have to go down early tomorrow to pick it up.

08-24-2013, 03:55 AMsjc03Tesco are well behind they quoted me a 29th August post delivery and know nothing about pre release codes when I was chasing my order.. Amazon though seem to have pulled out all the stops giving free delivery on launch day and have posted the early access code.. Se digital have not sent anything yet ? I have ordered from Tesco and Amazon CE PC versions as gifts for my family the SE digital is for me but as I am Legacy I need not have done so.. I only gain the in game minion addsQuote:

I ordered it from Amazon.de and they did not dispatch it yet, even though it´s a pre-order. In my order history they determine that it will arrive on the 28th. . . funny he? As a pre-order to arrive 1 day after full-release. Well done Amazon. ^^

Amazon are not able to deliver the game until 29th (Thursday according to a service agent on amazon's chat service)
**edit** made a complaint via the web chat agent and then they upgraded to next day delivery. recommend others do the same :) -
08-24-2013, 06:41 AMshaunkunzDidn't know a strike was happening this sat and tue :( I hope I get my CE before 27th lol!Quote:

Normal weekend deliveries and collections should take place in almost all parts of the UK on Saturday.
Monday 26th August will be a Bank Holiday in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and parts of Scotland. No deliveries or collections. -

You all do realise there is a grace period till the 30th? You do not need your game code until after 30th August.
There is no rush on receiving the game at all, no need to worry about it being late. Not sure why there is such panic? -
08-24-2013, 06:56 AMshaunkunzI know we have a grace period, I'm not panicking :P and I hope others ain't either.Quote:

One thing I hope does not happen though when we all do finally get our retail games/keys. Error 1, Error 3 lolz but that's another story, for another time, if relevant! -

Just check my order on amazon for the PS3 CE and it now at Dispatching now so it good news that amazon are now starting to send out their copys of the game
-
08-24-2013, 07:11 AMReserProbably not, Most 1.0 and legacy players have no keys to redeem now. So a lot less congestion. Also the actual service account system so far has seemed to be error free, sort of begs the question why they did not just give 20 digit codes out to pc and 12 digit to ps3 from the start.Quote:
