If you went with the 2.99 shipping you won't have an order tracking number.
I know if I had more money, I would have gotten a couple of point cards and maybe even one 3 month card...but oh well, I'm just glad that i can finally take advantage of a glitch somewhere...

It probably depends on whether the order was for hardware or software.
I know I ordered 3 accessories with value shipping and all were sent out via UPS, one of which is already out for delivery because it shipped from in-state.

Mine was for a used copy of Otogi and a new copy of Midway Arcade Treasures 3 and a headet. Only the headset has a tracking number by UPS, and its supposed to be delivered sometime Thur. Pretty sweet considering I opted for the 2.99 shipping. So i don't think that it was dependent on if the game was used or new. It could also be if they decided to pack some together if the order had more than one thing...

Looks like both my orders were canned. Just logged in to check when the expected ship dates were on these games, and they both show a $0.00 total and "Cancelled".
I kind of expected this, but shouldn't they send out an e-mail informing me of a cancelled order? Sorta feels like they did this behind my back...

I think they probably did that if some or all or your purchases were the same amount. I know that some will view multiple transactions from the same place within a certain period of time (I think discounting places like 7-11 though) with suspect. Even more so if those transactions are the same amount. Of course, they could be viewing it as that or they might see it as a fuck up on the sellers part. Either way, it is a good thing that they called you, shows that they keep an eye on stuff for the cardholder.
I ordered two games that came to 3.30-something shipped and put on my credit card. The headset I got for 8.60 shipped I put on my visa check card. Funny thing is that I checked my bank account Monday, before it was shipped, and it had my balance at what I'd had in there, but my available balance was what it would be once its taken out. But a little bit ago, I checked and both were the same. Then again, I have had that happen before, as if they check to see if the funds are there, let it go back to normal, then take out the correct funds.

-Its marked as shipped
-There's no tracking number

So, I dunno. I'm hoping its in the mail but it seems wierd that there's no delivery confirmation number or anything.

Well, I've been tracking my headset. Even though I ordered it as value shipping, they bumped it to 3 day UPS. It had its "origin scan" at 9:41am in Dallas Monday. Its depature scan yester day in Dallas at 8:27am. Arrived in Philadelphia at 10:28 this morning and left at 3:58. It then arrived in Laurel, MD, at 6:22 tonight and left at 7:24. So it looks like I'll be getting it tomorrow. As for Otogi and Arcade Treasures 3, they're just listed as shipped with no order number.

The thing is, it's shrink-wrapped. Does this mean that it isn't brand new? That makes me a little mad that they would just re-wrap a used game, and call it new. If everything is in the case and in good condition, I guess I'm fine with that.

This is a preowned video game. It is guaranteed to work on your Sony PlayStation 2 video game console and may not include a box or instruction manual.
Notice that all used games aren't guranteed to have box or manual.

I don't really care if they send me the game with a box or not, as I'll just go to my local GameStop and get boxes for them all. I know it's not guaranteed.

Nah, they'll usually just swap out the entire thing and even if they didn't I can't imagine them having a problem if you jsut asked them nicely for the manual from the other copy.
Are you asking where you can just print the manual out online? Go to gamestop.com and find the specific game you're looking for and at the top of the part where the game description thing is there's a spot you can click to find the manual for printing it out.
