Amazon: Estimated Shipping Date

jazman · 03-02-10, 12:25 AM

Is now March 8. How do I know? The Amazon.com page doesn't specify a ship date; I ordered, then cancelled, to find out. (I didn't need to cancel to find out, but am waiting and seeing.)

Must be selling well.

Last time I ordered direct from Ubisoft I got it after everyone else had it.

Just no reason to order from them...

Ah I hope this isn't the case this time around.

Amazon has shipped mine last night. Currently in KY on its way to MD. Looks like my weekend might be filled with a new SH5 game. Oh, the wife will be so very happy....not!

Amazon.de (Germany) is going to ship on march 4th -> ETA march 5th

It's possible to downlad @ http://www.gamesload.de/silent-hunter-5/ on march 4th but I already ordered via Amazon.de.

Got a message from Amazon saying it shipped with an estimated delivery date of March 8th!!!!!!!!! WTF? I pre-ordered it 2 months ago! Hopefully it's just a standard shipping message, the actual USPS tracking number doesn't register, so I don't know.

While your delivery dates have been postponed, mine have moved up.

I'm expecting it to arrive tomorrow, instead of the 5th, originally.

jhelix70 · 03-02-10, 04:33 PM

my preordered copy arrived today...one-day shipping option

Ziggy · 03-02-10, 04:38 PM

Usually they over estimate arrival date. Or else they get 10000 messages from people wondering where their package is.

Schunken · 03-02-10, 04:42 PM

I think also....

my on Amazon.de says 4 March - 8 March.... maybe just a reserve for over the weekend....

Ditto, now I need to get it installed....

If I knew it was coming from Indiana I would have done standard considering I live in Ohio. Dur!

Kresge · 03-02-10, 05:10 PM

Nothing in the mail today and the tracking number doesn't even show up to let me know when I can expect it.

Could have bought the thing down the street today!

Silent Hunter V - Limited Edition (PC CD)
Dispatch estimate: 4 Mar 2010
Delivery estimate: 9 Mar 2010 - 15 Mar 2010

Quote:

Estimated Delivery Dates We do our best to accurately estimate when items will be dispatched from our fulfilment centres and from other sellers on Amazon.co.uk. Estimated dispatch dates are based on several factors, including your destination address, how quickly we can obtain and assemble items for dispatch and whether you have requested that we group your items into as few deliveries as possible.
Our estimated dispatch dates are generally a range of dates. It is entirely possible for an item that has not been dispatched by the beginning of the date range to still arrive within our delivery estimate.
We calculate delivery estimates by taking our estimated dispatch dates and adding the time it takes a package to travel from our fulfilment centre to your destination address.
Sometimes we'll update our delivery estimates based on the most recent information we have, so please remember to check your estimated delivery date in Your Account.
Note: the total delivery time (from when you place your order to when it arrives) for UK Super Saver Delivery is 2-3 days longer than for First Class delivery. Super Saver Delivery orders can take longer to leave our fulfillment centre.

Looking forward to be lying in ambush awaiting the postman
