Anjexu, that would be me (the owner of GFC). You have two options really:

1) Request us to order the items for you and then ship them to you directly (Direct Request Service).

OR

2) Order the items yourself, ship them to us and have us ship them back to you (Package Forwarding Service).

Both are unique services with the same end goal in mind. We can also bundle several items together to help you save additional money Shipping shouldn't kill most deals as we charge very fair shipping rates (listed in the first post of this thread).

Hopefully I'll be able to order the kmart stuff (I really want FFXIII and Bayonetta). I have a question about the package forwarding: What is the "#90-341" for?

Thanks for the reply on adding gaming credit I'm also interested in FFXIII from K-Mart, I've been following the thread and it seems like the shipping will be $0.99 from what the representative posted

Ah, I just checked gyros and I'm really happy to see that my items have been shipped. Can't wait to see them in the mailbox. Thanks Goomba!

Just one question about the Amazon SSF4 orders though; how many of the pre-order bonus costumes codes did you receive? It wasn't very clear on Amazon whether or not it was 1 per customer only. I'm assuming you'll be sending them to the first orderer if it is, right?

Hey Goomba, I just wanted to ask a quick question, sorry for not reading through all the posts, im a canadian gamer and ive always been frustrated with online sales only in the US, I tried ordering Madworld and Okami the other week because they are both extremely cheap, when i went to do checkout however there was $50 dollars worth of shipping, which i thought was kind of ridiculous so i decided not to order. If I was to order through you do these charges get waived, and then i only pay for you to ship them to me on top of your service charges? any help would be greatly appreciated

What happens if we make a mistake on our estimate, whether we over or underestimate? Do we get refund or credit, or get billed again later?

** GFC COMPLETE STATS **

The Great GFC DR Purge is upon us. All the orders that have been submitted via the website that have NOT been paid for will be purged from the system. This will clear up orders that have timed out, are no longer available or were only estimates to begin with. In order to move forward with the service and site updates, this is a necessary step. If you sent in an Direct Request but do not see your order, please let me know and I will look into it for you

Okay here are the Stats:

Orders Being Processed (TOTAL): 109
Direct Request Orders To be Purged: 55
Package Forwarding Orders Not Yet Processed: 0

Again, if you have an order with us that you have NOT heard from us back, or if you do not see it in the GYROS page, please let us know Thanks guys! I will wait until Saturday before purging them. ^_^

CaptainKishimoto, the #90-341 is our box number with the UPS Store that we use. So it's the number that uniquely identifies our business account. You can typically put it in the Address 2 section of a web ordering form or as an apartment number.

Myv, Yes the $0.99 cent shipping seems to be what everyone is mentioning. Just remember to also add the 6% Sales Tax on top of it (they also tax shipping so add $1.00 to your item cost and then multiply by 1.06 first).

capitol, you're very welcome. Please let me know which orders were yours because I didn't have your CAG Username linked to your account for some reason Thanks!

Kooney, not a problem. I don't expect you to read through 2 years and 7809 posts to find the answer. MOST stores in the USA offer free shipping or very cheap shipping for American customers (list of stores is in the first post in this thread for some popular favorites). So for most orders you pay: actual cost of item, shipping to Canada (typically $3.00 USD per game) and our service charge of $2.00 for the first item and $1.00 for each additional item. That's it. Full details are on the site, but yes, ordering with us you'll save a TON over those ridiculous costs many stores charge to Canadian shoppers Welcome to the club!

DJ Ghostmare, we always go by actual costs so if for some reason you over-estimate we will apply the credit to your account and if you under-estimate than we will of course invoice you for the difference. Not to worry We're very good about our record keeping and very soon it will be listed on the website for your records as well. Thanks!

Goomba, have you received Super Street Fighter IV yet? You got my payment for the extra shipping in order to ship SSFIV and Red Dead Redemption separately, right? I doubt you forgot about that, but just wanted to make sure. Also, it's been 11 business days since I ordered Lost Odyssey and Eternal Sonata. Still nothing? I know the GYROS are very up to date, but for some reason I need to hear it from you. Sorry.

Goomba, can you check your email or PM from me, thanks!

My order was #1077 / 150142605. I don't think I registered for a user account for your site when I ordered so maybe that's why there isn't my info in your database. I think I'll go do it now since I intend on doing business with you again.

Gombay, I just picked up the games and yes your SSFIV is in there I will be updating GYROS today and will ship out accordingly. Thanks!

gecko, I shall go do that.

capitol, awesome thanks. I've updated your account in our system to have your CAG username Thanks.

Noice!

Hi goomba478, I PMed you regarding my remaining shipping payment. I wait your answer to pay you. Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
BaddestMan

Im surprised Goomba that you havn't implemented a system to auto-purge stuff within 7 days of non-payment... That seems easier than the rest of the stuff you coded for your website!

Gombay, thanks for getting back to me. Sorry I posted in the other thread lol. I have a lot going on Hard to keep track sometimes hehe.

BaddestMan, I PM'd you back. Thanks buddy.

RoganSarine, The only reason I haven't done so yet is because I'm afraid the system (unless I programmed it perfectly) would purge orders I didn't want it to. I will eventually do something along those lines once I implement the pre-pay system on the actual site, but for now I haven't because I'm afraid of losing orders ^_^ You're right that it'd be easy to code, but I just like to keep some things manual for now. That'll change eventually though

Thanks again for the answer. I will pay you tomorrow. My internet connection is very laggy tonight and I don't want to screw up on PayPal. I'll give positive feedback as soon as I receive my fightstick.

Goomba, is there any chance you could cancel my Red Dead Redemption from Gamestop and order it through Amazon instead with the $20 credit? Or would that screw up the 25% off deal since it needed the order to be $100+? It's only about a $5 difference, but I don't really want the $10 GS credit.

wow..... goomba ru ok?
holy shit i havent been on for almost 2 week and so many stuff happened.....
best of luck in recovery~
