MvC3 Buyers guide. Where to buy the game online

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I am based in NYC and have had the game since last Friday… >_>;;

Not even capcom knows why our shit’s in Indiana. Oh well. Maybe i’ll just stop checking the tracking info and be pleasantly surprised when I finally get it…

yeah… so it’s sort of easy for you to say then… where do you go (to school)?

NYU. I also live three blocks from Chinatown Fair. :wink:

Very cool. I have a friend studying trombone (my major) there. I’m slightly considering a transfer there in the distant future, it’s a great musical theater (my other maybe major) school as well. Just a good place in general haha congrats.

Thanks! My roommate is actually a major in Recording Music. He’s an audio engineer.

Tracker updated for me

I guess it will hit my town by Friday. Hopefully.

I, too, was trolled by the Capcom store. Luckily I swung by the local Target on the way home from the gym and they had a few copies of the CE for both systems. I plan on taking the copy from the mail back to Target whenever it arrives. Hopefully it finds its way from Indiana to Phoenix before the Target receipt expires in 60 days -_-

Tracker updated to in transit… my optimistic guess is tomorrow, but anytime this week seems realistic now

This makes no no sense at all. I work in the shipping industry and I cannot even find a reason for a package to sit in one location that’s its not being delivered in to sit there for over 24hrs. Maybe they had horrible weather? I doubt it…

They apparently had an ‘outage’ and had to re-process many orders.

soooo my package went to NJ 3 times?

give me a fucking break…hopefully I get it tomorrow…with my luck I’ll get it next month

So how do you ship an order that’s out of stock? There has to be a physical product in order for something to ship and get a tracking confirmation.

The status went from In Transit to Departed. Does that mean its on its way to my house?

Not sure what all of USPS codes mean but I would guess departed from Indiana. I think it should say out for delivery or something to that nature. It also should show it being accepted into your city somewhere along the process…Or maybe this whole tracking system they are using is fucked up and we have no idea whats going on.

Next step is them handing the package over to USPS, then USPS will deliver it to you. If it’s 3 days in NJ (as was the case from MN > IN) then probably sometime next week at the earliest.

Well if your order shipped anywhere from the 10th to the 14th you’re in luck, but if your order hasn’t shipped yet then chances are you won’t get your copy unless the problem is in the tracking and updating system and not the available copies.

I’ve not had problems with Zavvi in the past and my order has been despatched!

I havent had a problem with Zavvi either. However my pre-order was from TheHut (who owns Zavvi?) an my order has just been despatched! Fingers crossed it arrives on my doorstep tomorrow :smiley:

Yes i am excited.

Last night, FINALLY got my shipping notice. A day later, the tracking number shows nothing, and my credit card has nothing on it. Picked up a regular edition from Gamestop, game is amazing, my hands are sore. Hopefully I do get it. If I do, I’ll keep that and probably give this one to a friend who really wants it but doesnt have the cash.

im in the uk and preordered with shopto with first class postage. a number of people in the same boat have already received their copies today, but someone else i know hasn’t. at work so i don’t know if it’s sitting behind my front door right now.
