    I ordered Dynasty Warriors 6: Empires from Play.com on Saturday.

    They sent me an email saying the order is processing, and they'll get back to me once it has been dispatched.

    The last time I ordered from Play.com, it was dispatched within 5 hours

    With this order however, it has taken 2 days as of now and they still haven't taken my money..

    Does anyone else know if I'm just being paranoid? Or does this normally happen with other people ordering?

    (sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forum, didn't know where else to post this lol)

    Nope thats normal sometimes can take a week, it depends on stock, weekend is not counted as a working day so it begins from Monday. it should take around 3-4 working days which is Mon-Fri.

    Hands up who read the actual post..

    OP credit card transactions could be pending on your card and may take up to 2 working days to appear. Believe me, Play.com won't forget to take the money. They probably have it guaranteed and haven't sent the request to move the funds from your credit to their credit.

    They don't take the money from the credit card until its dispatched.

    If the game is out of stock it could take a few days. I ordered a cd before that was out of stock and was'nt dispatched for two weeks so it can vary.

    but it woz in stock when i ordered it. i don't bother the effort with out of stock items.

    i did order it on a Saturday. im gona agree with the first reply when he said they dont do weekends more-so Sundays. i'll wait and see hopefully il get an update on the item 2nite or 2moro. I'm just too used to gettin my items delivered within 3 days not-to-mention i rarely order on weekends

    If you're using a 3V card the transaction should come up almost immediatly on your transaction history on the 3V website it should'nt affect the time ittakes to process the order though.
