Got a voice mail this morning from my local Best Buy regarding my preorder with them. They have the game, but the steel books aren't in yet, apparently. This is at the Best Buy in Columbia, MO, and I preordered the game back in January. I kind want to complain to them.
Mine didn't have them yet either

My entire district didn't get ours.. They are still expected in, they just arrived late from manufacturer.
 
Lol they were not getting me this year, I like the AC games and I decided last year when my GCU was still new to me I would preordered ACU, first AC I ever preordered, will not happen again lol, now I'm going to wait for reviews for them and even then I'm probably going to wait till they are under $30
I want to meet the guy that has to preorder an AC game. I mean could you not play one of the fifty AC games that are already out for the 2 months it takes for the price to drop.
 
I remember a few cags posting about issues with earning shopkick points via in-store purchases. You can still earn Shopkick points through the new POS. You have to click on your specific store within the app once you're inside. The left bubble will be the one that credits you at the entrance. The right bubble is the one that brings up two barcodes for the employee to scan at the POS since the phone number query doesn't work anymore. Can they still look up your myBestBuy membership with your phone number? I still bring my RZ card with me.

My store didn't even know what I was talking about, since it wasn't in the ad. Claimed only the CE had the steel book, and nobody could find them in inventory. Guess this will be a fun customer service adventure once they come in and the last one is randomly given away.

I really like the people at this store, but they never seem to know what's going on with preorder bonuses.
 
Just got back from picking up the Witcher I pre-ordered a week ago. Lo and behold it came with a steel book. Not sure if there just weren't that many pre-orders at my store or they had enough to go around (or someone coming in later today isn't getting theirs, which I hope isn't the case). Haven't opened up the game itself to check out the soundtrack, sticker, and other bonus stuff listed on the slip cover but I'm super excited to play my first Witcher game.

I guess I have to figure out what shopkick is now. I downloaded cartwheel. Any others I need?

One of my friends works at bb so I asked him about it yesterday while he was working and he checked the stock. His store had 18 steelbooks for some reason yet he told me basically all of Florida didn't get any. When I went in this morning to pick it up I asked about it, basically already knowing they didn't have any, and they all said they didn't get any in. So someone messed up in allocating stock to the stores
 
Just picked up my preorder from best buy. Make sure you let them know that you should be getting more than one item as most are unaware that the item sitting next to the game is also for you as well. To my surprise the Witcher also comes in a slipcover, although I wish best buy would stop slapping their order sticker on it, so I took it off in-store just in case it peeled in which case I would have requested another.
 
My Best Buy has a stack of about 10-15 steelbooks. Looked like they were giving them on a first come first serve basis for pre orders though.

 
I want to meet the guy that has to preorder an AC game. I mean could you not play one of the fifty AC games that are already out for the 2 months it takes for the price to drop.
I mostly fit that description. I preordered Brotherhood, Revelations, AC3, and Unity. Skipped preorder of Black Flag and Rogue. If there is a Best Buy deal on Syndicate I will probably preorder it too. I'm a big time AC fan though.

 
Just picked up my CE. No steelbooks came in according to CS....box was also damaged. I preordered when it first went up I thought Best Buy said any preorders before April 15th were getting a Steelbook?
 
Well I picked up my preorder and no SteelBook even though I was told I would be good. So I call CS to see if I could get one shipped and they rep said that I was definitely suppose to get one and after waiting on hold 20 minutesthe store manager is calling me shortly. Never had a issue and I wasn't trying to get anyone in trouble. Pretty aggressive customer service. Anyhow I'm giddy inside to get out the tutorial and see W3 world.
 
Does anyone have the SKU for the steelbook?
2213003

That's what my online order says for the steelbook ("Witcher 3 Exclusive Steelbook - Other"). My game and steelbook were already dropped off today; I can't wait to get home and start my 200-hour odyssey... :drool:

So what do I do if I didn't get a steelbook? I preordered in November of last year about a week or two after the steelbook was announced.
Call or email best buy support. Or post on best buys unboxed forums. They'll probably send you a steel book in the mail.
 
Just got a phone call from my BB, and my store did not receive the Steel books either, they will arrive tomorrow they said, kinda sucks, but at least it looks like for sure I am getting one

 
I called the Santana Row, CA store and they said they haven't gotten the steelbooks in yet. If anyone else knows differently, please let me know!
Did they check the manifest for truck shipment or UPS today? The Milpitas store had to dig it up and it was in a box in their shipping area. I would have figured since they're in the same district, they'd get the same shipment dates.

 
Did anyone pre-order witcher 3 to get it delivered from BB with GCU? Seems they're going the cheap route on shipping now... Mine says delivered on Saturday when every other item I've bought from them was delivered either the release date or the day after...

 
What size is the steelbook?
The Steelbook is the same size as the PS4 Bluray case

I pre-ordered in late March for delivery from Best Buy. Both the steelbook and the game arrived today. They shipped separately (from separate locations) on Friday and both came in bubble pack envelopes, which I figured would be the case when I saw that they shipped separately. I was a little worried the steelbook would be dented or scratched, but it was pristine. It looks to be pretty good quality, overall. There is space for two discs as someone else reported. The game was also in pretty good shape, although there was a small amount of wear on the corners of the cardboard slipcase. I was pleasantly surprised that it included a slipcase and the soundtrack and a few other little extras. I don't know if other people were aware that we would be receiving those, but I was not, so it was a nice surprise.

 
Normally I just wait to pick up my Best Buy pre orders until I'm out there on Fridays, but glad I got there about an hour after they opened to pick mine up.  They only had a like 5 for in store pre orders, and a handful from site to store orders.

 
FWIW, they sent out a memo sometime yesterday or today to stores to only give steelbooks to people who preordered April 27 or before.

You called?

On another note, my store didn't get the steels but they took my info to call me when they come in.
 
Just picked up my preorder in store along with the steelbook. She couldn't figure out how to deduct the $5 from my preorder but I didn't mind since I was able to get the steelbook. This is the reason why I always do my preorder online for in-store pick up, a lot of clerks are still not aware on how to process the preorders. Hopefully it doesn't mess up my $10 cert bonus, I'm keeping both receipt til it clears.

Glad I shipped to home instead. Both my steelbook and game were delivered today, even though the game was only shipped yesterday. 1 day shipping is crazy considering I chose free shipping.
 
Yay, I got my steelbook and the game. Both in bubble mailers and it looks like the steelbook got a little damaged too. I am so happy...they shouldve just crushed it before shipping it, but looks like they left that to the carrier (UPS) to take care of.

Also there is a giant (exaggeration) sticker on the back of the steelbook. So happy :)

The steelie I got in store had a barcode sticker on the inside left of the case, but it came off very easily.

 
Gotta love Best Buy, they have a hot ticket free item with pre-order and it sells out weeks before the release day. Plus some stores don't even have it. Classic Best Buy.

I didnt try to peel it off; hoping that it will come off easily. I am more pissed that the steelbook isnt latching correctly because the spine looks damaged (nothing noticeable, just doesnt fit right); it also appears to be little loose on the hinges. All in all, more worried than happy about the steel book.

 
Got my $5 off coupon for renewing gamers club as I walked out if the store after paying. Would do a return rebuy but I'd lose the $10. Good news is I got the steel book, but now I have to buy another game before 6/15. Anyone know if it works on preorders?

I just got the butt end of that memo. I was told in store that I'd receive the steelbook...and when I picked it up I was told otherwise. My luck at BB continues.

 
I did my store pickup for my .com order today and the biggest douche that works at that Best Buy is the one that did it. He must hate me because he asked for my ID and card and put them under the UV light to check if they were fake. I've been going to that store for years and you know I shop a lot and you need to see if my ID is fake. Plus he has the biggest attitude ever and is overall a dick. I hate that guy.

The scanning of the ID is pretty standard. Unless we both look like weasels. :)

That's actually policy. I'm sure you wouldn't be happy if someone used a fake ID to pick up your product.
 
I love this game before playing it. It comes with the soundtrack (on a CD), a very high quality map, a nice thank you letter, stickers, and a book explaining the charters all for FREE!

 
Picked up my copy of Witcher 3...no steelbook.  They said they would get them in tomorrow.  I can't make it back tomorrow so hopefully they will hold mine until Friday.

The only problem with my copy was that the Mexicans putting the stuff in the case put the inserts in upside down.

They're required to do that for all in-store pick-ups.
The fact that the others don't do their jobs as well is the issue. Aside from him being a dick, I guess.
