i think Phantom Brave is back in stock.

Why do you say that?

Oh wait... now I know why...

It's a trap?!?

Great. I ordered this game and now I got an email saying it's back-ordered. They said if it's not re-stocked after 30 days, they'll cancel my order. Looks like I'll just return my $50 copy and take my luck with this $20 one.

Did anyone else have problems ordering this game?

I doubt Playstation.com will cancel ALL these orders. Maybe some of the back order ones, but definately not all. They made great business with this deal, and sold probably sold tens of thousands due to this deal. If they cancel and list them for like 40 or 50 bucks, no ones going to buy. Most people wouldn't shop there again because of the mistake. I know I wouldn't. Have hope guys :).

The Gallop might not be cancelled I just found Gallop racer 2004 at Walmart for 30 so 19.88 isnt that far off

I feel like such a sucker for buying this game 3 weeks ago at EB for $50 :cry:

Hopefully they'll re-stock this one. I still have my copy of '04 sealed so at least I can return it.

Thanks alot cheap ass gamers!!!! I picked up Burnout3, NASCAR 2005, Viewtiful Joe and NHL 2K5 for like 70 bucks (and I had a $57 credit on my sears mastercard)

Thanks again everyone! And whoever said brokeassgamer is what this should be called makes a good point. Without my credit card surplus, I would have been ass-out....

But why would they cancel if they still made a profit? Are they idiots and think people will still buy even after 40 bucks and not just go else where? Do they think they could make even more money by hiking the prices up? :?: :?: :?:

I imagine a normal smiley a little distance from a "smiley'ed" Ackbar, facing each other. A little speech bubble appears above Ackbar yelling "It's a Trap!", then 1/2 a second later spikes come up and impale the other smiley.

I wonder can you really tell me that noone is working at the sony site on the weekend. Meaning if these prices are fake they should of taken them down by now so hopefully everyone orders will fill

Fingers crossed i will get Gallop racer 2004 by friday and PB within the next 30 days. (my target is sold out of PB)

I never got a backorder notification for my two copies of Burnout. I got it really early, very soon after Scorchie first posted the deal (thanks again, by the way). If they don't cancel it for a pricing error, hopefully we'll get them quickly.

This seems suspiciously like the price hacking that was happening at EB, though.

I heard from another post that priority mail takes 1-2 days most of the time and 3 days latest? Also, isnt the reason priority mail slow sometimes because people arent using it and the trucks aren't getting loaded up? I heard they only ship out once the trucks are full, but if a lot of people ordered shouldnt the people who didnt get back order get it pretty early? Please dont get cancleled........................

Maybe you could proofread your posts before you hit the submit button. That way, you won't have to try to explain them to us all again after the fact. See, you were doing good until the end, then you lost it and started on about something I'm sure you'll explain in a later post because you failed to properly express yourself in that one.

You're the one cursing, and you want me to grow up?

My comment was not derrogatory in any way. It was simply a reminder that children do visit this board. The F word is banned here for this very reason. Personally, I think it would be nice if cursing weren't allowed here due to the amount of younger gamers that come here, but that would seem to go against the name of the site.

Again, I didn't think it was too much to ask to not use the F word. Especially, since you complain that slidecage has issues.

My child sometimes walks up while I am on the computer. If he were to see that picture, with the writing so big and bold, I'm sure he would have more than one question for me to answer. I would prefer he a little older before opening his mind to the more vulgar language of the world.

I also thought it was odd for a moderator to critisize a member so harshly for really not doing anything wrong. I do enjoy the site, which is why I visit it so, but it has turned more and more like FW as of late, the site everyone here hates. Ironic, huh?

i didnt take it as derrogatory, i understand that children visit websites, thats what net nanny and other such programs are for. with public boards come bad words.

The F word is banned here for this very reason.
stop making up facts.

I'm just trying to keep my google search results from winding up in the adult section because of too many f-bombs.

I don't mind the occasional f-bomb, but there are people that take it too far and they ruin it for the rest of us.

me using fuck has nothing to do with slidecage. i dont see the point of this statement.

i applaude you for that, since in this society our childrens minds often corrupt too fast, but what can i say, its just a word, and as far the the "big and bold"-ness of the word, the word is yellow on a tan-ish background in a fairly slender font. yes the font size is large, but the color distracts from it and there is no boldness to it. its not emphasized at all.

I also thought it was odd for a moderator to critisize a member so harshly for really not doing anything wrong.
i dont speak for casey, but hes a mod not a saint.

Actually, I thought the "F word" was filtered out because it was so rampant in the forums it was causing search engines to mis-categorize the site.

If your child walks up to the computer while you're at Cheapassgamer, he must also see the word ASS prominantly displayed at the top of every page. I mean, geeze, if a risque word is in the title/URL of a Web site you can't expect us all to talk like shaq-fuing Mary Poppins in the forums, can you?

I know a lot of kids that swear more than adults, and I don't think Cheapassgamer needs to moderated in such a way that would turn more like Gamefaqs, the other site everyone here hates.

I also thought it was odd for a moderator to critisize a member so harshly for really not doing anything wrong. I do enjoy the site, which is why I visit it so, but it has turned more and more like FW as of late, the site everyone here hates. Ironic, huh?

If he did not lie, made his posts literate, and did not repeat himself constantly I would not have said anything.

I have not said anything bad about him until now, and the only reason I said anything is that I am tired of reading his posts that all say the same thing. If he wanted to up your post count, there are plenty of threads available where you can do just that.


not getting into a flaming contest but when did i Lie HUH if u ask me that is pure slander If i made my post literate when did a freaking message board turn into a Final for an english paper. If you ask me no matter what someone does A Mod should NEVER tell someone to STFU.

Can I tell you to stfu?

All you have to do is scroll back a page or two in this thread to see where we all caught you in a lie. This is also not the first time this has happened.

And I never said your typing had to be perfect, but it should at least be coherent.

and as for me telling you STFU, you made the same " I bet all the orders get cancelled on monday LOL" post several times. IT got annoying and someone had to tell you to stop. It is obvious those pictures did not get the point across.

Whats shaq-fu mean? I never heard of it. I looked it up at dictionary.com but nothing. Is it a joke or a real curse word? :? I also kind of agree with fwacce. It really isnt necessary using a curse word when you're trying to be funny. Just replace it with something funny like fudge.

so start a poll and see what the general feeling on it is.

i didnt make that picture, but really..'fudge'? im not sure if that was a joke or not.

f*ck means the same thing as the word without the * in it, it just looks idiotic with the * in there.

i really dont think as many "children" read this site as you think.

Okay all back to point. Has anyone ever ordered anything from this site cause i got some questions. How long does it take before they ship out if your item isnt on back order. How long does it take to get confirmed (werid i orderd saturday yet my CC is still processing) they should be able to process on the weekends ebgames does. I know they are on the west coast so it will probally be late today or tonight before anything happens but i was just wondering do they ussually ship in 24 hours or does the processing thing go on for days.

why am i going to be red. I be happy for those who get the games like i said I really hope i get the gallop racer I got the BP just cause it was so freaking cheap (I could of got it for 25 but really didnt want it for 25 since im saving for paper mario) I seen it on the site for 20 and though I cant pass this up for 20. I was looking at the site sunday and notice the NHL was 8.67 and overlooked that would of loved to got that game for 8.67 ( yes am that cheap to pay the extra 1.33 to get it for 10 bucks at target)

i hope the best for everyone to get all their games, but i think this is how it will work out everyone whos didnt get a back order will get the games they ordered but all the back orders will never come/

In closing i KNow off topic but dont feel like making this SMALL TOPIC is ESPN NHL 2005 ANy good dont know to pick that up or NHL 2004

I hate to bring this up, but Sub Rebellion may have shipped because it probably was not mis-priced. TRU has it on Amazon for 14.98, heck EBgames.com sells it used for $8.99 before discounts, so $20.94 new is not outside the realm of possibility. I still hope we get the games, but I will feel more comfortable when someone gets a "shipped" notice for Phantom Brave or Burnout 3.

Ok, just got home where my copy of Sub Rebellion was waiting. It shipped from Jack of All Games in West Chester, OH. So basically, playstation.com must use a distribution network to ship these games out (they don't personally warehouse them, they just use retailers that carry there product as distribution centers (they give the retailer a better wholesale discount for them warehousing the product).)

So, that would explain all the Sourced comments, but I'd expect all the games to ship eventually.

Hey i got a REAL question here one of my friends said this but i think they are wrong. if three days pass SOny must honor the prices if they do not cancell the orders. even if its a price mistake they had 3 days to fix it and by not fixxing it they are forming a contract to fill your orders.
since they had 3 days to fix the prices and cancelll the orders that were wrong. BY doing nothing they agree with the price of the orders that went in..... they said this is a well known law but few people use it


I say hes got the 3 day law that if you sign a contract you can break it confused with the law they are talking about

ANYONE know

Admiral Ackbar
09-28-2004, 07:09 PM
Hmm. Don't know.

I know in Delaware they have a three day return law. You can return any product within three days that the seller can't refuse the return. But that's a state law.

If there was a federal law like the one you're talking about I'm sure we would have heard of it by now. Like the more widely known false advertising laws.

Hmmm very interesting. I'm thinking Sub Rebellion wasn't one of the possible errors though (if these prices were in fact errors), the price they were asking seems like it is pretty close to what it's going for. Still that does give lots of us some hope.

I know they have 30 days to deliver but nothing would take that long unless something happened. Priority mail usually takes 1-3 business days. All Im saying is that I wont be expecting it if it doesnt come by this week. If this were an older game and it didnt come now, I probably would think they're just a little late because there really isn't any reason for it not to show up. But considering this is burnout 3 or phantom brave,both brand new games, there is already a considerable possibility that they wont honor these cheap ass prices. It reasonable to think that if it doesnt come by this week, there is a possibility it might not come at all. Again, most games come over the 1-3 day period.

Something to happen? Like maybe...a backorder. These are on backorder, that means it would NOT arrive in 3 days. Besides, remember that Front Mission 4 incident. It just came out and some website has it listed for around $20 and eventually they shipped the game at that price. Peace.

someone from slickdeals said sony cancelled their order and if they put another one in they will cancell it again. Im starting to doubt this as well more and more, i mean come on its been 3 working days and the things are still processing. it says shipment 3 days but the catch is it dont say how long handling is but sadly i think everything is going to time out at 30 days and all get it done. If this would to happen it would be the weakest way sony can back out of this deal since they can say well we didnt want to cancell but its been 30 days and the computer is set up that way. SOny should take a hint from overstock even if it was an error they honor their prices.

EDIT::: Read on another weblink that Sony does not have the games that they do do it by 3rd party so that is what might be taken so long. Sony might be trying to make a deal with some places to sell these games at these prices so theres HOPE WE MIGHT GET THEM WOOOOO

Read my post from last night.. they don't purchase the product from the 3rd parties.. they use a distribution network. Many of our stores use a DC network setup for certain parts. They don't have to purchase the games, simply have the DC ship the game to you and reimburse the DC for their cost of the game.

Nah, I think it's dead. I can't check from work. But I think someone earlier posted that Sony had removed the Playstation.com links.

go to the game. At the bottom they list a bunch of retailers. If there's a "Buy from Playstation.com" link, or something like that, click it. It should add the game to your cart and show the price.

If the link isn't there I guess it's dead.

my BO3 order is still processing hopefully it will go through eventually. And did anyone get an answer from customer support?

Empyrical
09-29-2004, 06:39 PM
Yeah, mine is still "Processing" and "Sourced."

I do think it was an error, but I'm not going to cancel my order until I'm sure it's an error.

The biggest problem is that I have my $35 GTA: SA coming on Oct. 30 (and I'm getting that for $35, because I presbyterianed the guy down on the phone), and if this goes to 30 days or whatever... damnit. Too many games to play this season.

But if I get a cancellation Email, I might as well just skip down to the Best Buy and buy it.

isnt there a law that states after so many days they agree to the contract. The contract to sell the price at the price they had it listed at. I thought it was 3 days but i dont think its that. By allowing the price to stand they are making a contract at that price to sell.

CrimsonGeist

I know they have 30 days to deliver but nothing would take that long unless something happened. Priority mail usually takes 1-3 business days. All Im saying is that I wont be expecting it if it doesnt come by this week. If this were an older game and it didnt come now, I probably would think they're just a little late because there really isn't any reason for it not to show up. But considering this is burnout 3 or phantom brave,both brand new games, there is already a considerable possibility that they wont honor these cheap ass prices. It reasonable to think that if it doesnt come by this week, there is a possibility it might not come at all. Again, most games come over the 1-3 day period.

Something to happen? Like maybe...a backorder. These are on backorder, that means it would NOT arrive in 3 days. Besides, remember that Front Mission 4 incident. It just came out and some website has it listed for around $20 and eventually they shipped the game at that price. Peace. First of all, my order wasn't placed under back order. All orders that aren't back order are sent obviously earlier. If you think that Sony waits for the back order copies to come, and then, when they have all the items,ship, you are an idiot. :roll: Back order copies probablly will arrive very late, and everything else should come on schedule. Or did you assume that I had it back ordered? :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:

Don't try to wrap me up in your paranoia and start name-calling. The majority of people who ordered recieved a backordered item notification in their inbox. If you did not, congratulations. But all this "3 day" nonesense is annoying. You missed the entire point of my post. The Front Mission 4 deal also went on backorder but eventually they were shipped out and at the reduced price.

99.9% of the games wont come by saturday since everyone is either in Back order or processing. It takes 3 days after the item leaves processing to ship. Since noones item (well major item) has ever left processing NOTHING will ship. SOny is just taking the easy way out here and going to let everything go into the 30 day window and cancell everything. SOny should show some spine and cover the items.

and what is even more bull is SOny is refusing to answer any email you leave for them. The people on the 800 line are very rude and have no clue what they are doing (Unless they are trying to cover it up) After this im sticking to xbox and nintendo.


EDIT::: I Just sent them another email asking if they are going to fill the orders or not. it said please allow 48 hours before hearing anything so if they answer this time I should know by Friday 9pm est

They will keep our orders on backorder, gathering interest on the money, and then, at the very end, cancel the orders, hence getting free money for them... right?

I agree that even if they did cover their butts with the legalities, it's still a blatant lie to put a price on your web site not being honored by the company. Perhaps it isn't false advertising, but it is dishonest.
I am waiting for notice on three backordered games (Viewtiful Joe, Burnout 3 and NHL 2k5). If they don't make good on the offer, I'll just shoot them an e-mail stating that my alligence in the next wave of consoles has shifted to Microsoft. Simple as that.... (though it may be a falsehood)

Upon authorization of your order, your credit card will be charged for the total order amount.

While we make every attempt to fill all orders placed, some items may be delayed or backordered. If this is the case, you will receive notification via email.

If you do not wish to wait due to the delay or backorder, you may request a cancellation for your order, provided that the item(s) has not shipped. If we do not hear from you before we ship the item(s), we will assume you have agreed to the shipment delay.

If we cannot deliver your item(s) within 30 days of the order date, delay notice or backorder notification (whichever is greater), a cancellation will be processed automatically. You will receive a prompt refund for any unshipped portion of your order. Please allow up to two billing cycles for the refund credit to appear on your credit card statement.


Reading that over, it seems that even if it is backordered, they still charge your card, and they give it back when it gets cancelled...

oh, and if anyone wants to test it, burnout 3 went back up to $49.99, so if someone orders it at full price and it isnt backordered, then we still have a chance of getting it. however, i wouldn't count on it if it isn't backordered.[[/i]

The weakest way a company can take out and SOny is taking the door out. LOL im an idoit you say, at least the ones who really belived the games will ship. have fun living in your make belive world. Everyone email sony maybe next time they will learn to stand up and take the right actions.


you are a loser

I just recieved the same "delayed" email from Sony. I'm disappointed, but I half expected them to weasel their way out of their mistake. Not a big deal, at least I learned not to buy from Sony's website anymore.

Where does this incredible sense of entitlement come from? I got in on the deal, heck, I needed it more than most of those who did (I cant even afford NHL at $16) But I aint getting it, oh no, boo shaq fu ing hoo. Give it a rest guys. If you want to be outraged, go down to a chemical factory and check out the ponds and streams out back, sit in a Pinto and have somebody broadside you turning you into a human smore. But for gods sakes, dont freak out over games. Worst case scenario, you play something else or if you must have it, rent it some to get the need out of your system, then buy it when its about $30 in a few months. (or whatever price point for whatever game you wanted)

Another thing I love. How many of you REALLY shopped at playstation.com BEFORE the sale? One, maybe two? And if you did, shame on you for calling yourself a CAG! They seemed always retail to me until this event. I guess Id believe people more if were EB or Gamestop they were boycotting. But boycotting playstation.com? Who the hell bought from there anyway? (probably terribly confused soccer moms or grandparents)

You've completely missed the point. The point is Playstation.com screwed up their prices, and are unwilling to admit that to it's customers. They're saying the orders are back-ordered, or "delayed indefinitely", when they simply could say "Hey guys, we messed up, we have to cancel all of your orders".

I'm a member of GAP, a supporter of Playstation, and a very vocal gamer, and this is just not acceptable. I don't normally buy from their website, but I can guarantee you I never will now because I can't know wether they're going to pull some shit on me.

No I just believe people and companies should be honest. In the same day today I recieved a whole bunch of demos and magazines from being in GAP, and then an email about my order being delayed. It's just frustrating.

Point is there are company that will come out and say they made a mistake while there are others (Like sony) who will hide behind loopholes so it dont seem like they are the bad guys in the deal.........

I got 47% off target rain checks that expire on 10-11-04 so if i want them i can get the games ( Target never restocked PB or Gallop though) ONe good thing is i can save the money for paper mario 2

I tried buying the linux kit from them, but by the time I had the money together, they had just stopped selling it (they had not made the announcement yet, but they removed the purchase link).

Still no new emails here either - nothing past the original two (order confirmation and backorder).

And now my name and password aren't letting me in either.

Weird.

What nonesne! I got the order delay e-mail as well and the Burnout 3 I ordered was never on backorder, and has been sourced the whole time (I ordered very early into the deal, before there were even 2 pages of posts).

Kain Vincent
10-01-2004, 05:47 PM
It let me log in, but my order is still "Processing"

BO3 is still listed as backordered.

CrimsonGeist
10-01-2004, 05:50 PM
All some one has to do is buy BO3 or PB and see if it gets back order. If it does, we're not screwed!!!! You can cancel right when it gets sourced.

It's tough to give ideas, as the total would be slightly less then just using the GGC at BB.

QUesiton is how many will really use it, I know for a fact that i wont. By the time you add in shipping and tax the price will be the same from buying it at the store using the BB coupon. Nice job sony for admitting it was your mistake, sadly almost a week later. Anyone know if you can combine the coupons cause i Got one i will never use

I'm still annoyed at Sony for lying about it. Like the earlier e-mail they sent out saying they hadn't heard back from the warehouse/suppliers. I guess that was a lie and they weren't sure if they were going to cancel the orders or not so they sent out that e-mail to let us think they are still working on the order.

RacinReaver
10-01-2004, 10:07 PM
I just got the e-mail as well, though when I check my order status they're still shown as being backordered.

Maybe I could use the $10 off of a GTA:SA preorder.
