    Looking at the dispatch date for the SE version for 360 on amazon uk earlier...my order was showing an expected delivery date of May 7-10 (!!)...discovered I was on Free Supersaver delivery, updated it to 1st class recorded for an extra £2 and the due date changed to April 29-30 :)

    How are you getting the SE from Amazon UK, they told me they won't deliver the SE outside the UK. Game sent me an email today aswell telling me they can't send me the SE cause it weighs more than 1kg after me pre booking it 3 weeks ago.

    Anyone know who will ship the SE to Ireland? Thanks

    HMV might.

    Nah, won't work either, just says can't process your order. Should have pre-ordered the SE in the shops here becasue they are impossible to get online. I'm not going to even touch ebay.

    I thought all shop had stopped taking pre-orders full stop. I have a standard version pre-ordered in gamestop but they feck up so much it means nothing.

    I'm looking to get both SE's. I'll take a look around town tomorow.

    I predict that it might actually be easier to get your hands on the Special edition that the standard one. Most shops I've seen have stopped taking preorders but I'm sure they'll have a few special editions ready too. Anyone have the price of the SE handy?

    How come other sites can send them out now

    Quote from the other thread
    I wouldn't worry, game.co.uk sent me an email today saying they were sending out my order today. I then got another one saying they cancelled it as they can't ship the SE version outside the UK and they were very sorry for saying they would etc etc, what a load.

    Cmon Gamesnash....we'll keep our lips shut ;);)

    anyone here work in xtravision, smyths, gamestop? or even you nasher?

    have you received stock yet, and is it meeting what you were expecting to get?

    I live on the border...have a mate taking delivery in Newry. Should have pointed that out.
    HMV were the only other e-tailer I was going to use, as they were the only ones I could find who'd deliver to the Republic...I declined to use them because they screwed me when Vice City came out (pre-ordered early but took them 3 weeks after release for me to get it).

    So, will shops have copies available for people that havent pre-ordered it? Cause they should do (since i havent pre-ordered it). My plan is to go into town for the midnight openings, then back in for 9am on tuesday morning, then try some more remote xtravisions in town (Thomas St for example) then if all that fails, head back to Newbridge and try there.

    I got two days off work for this, so i better god damn get it.

    We are taking delivery either tomorrow afternoon or Friday morning.

    For us yes it is meeting what we expected as anyone who has been tracking our site will confirm we have been updating as our final allocations were being given to us. We stopped taking pre orders every time we reached our minimum guaranteed stock level and waited until we had haggled / begged / stole and ultimately cooerced ;) more and then released them.

    That said we realistically could have and would have taken at least another 400 on X360 and 200 on PS3 but could not get our allocations to match up. We're down to a handful on both consoles now. The SE for example on X360 we requested 30 and got 3 so its safe to be assuming that supply has not met demand across the board.
