Gamestop.com Value Shipping?

[Crimsonscyes]

I ordered a PS3 from gamestop.com with value shipping (because it was free) but I'm not sure how they're going to ship it. Will it be sent through USPS priority mail or UPS?

I just ordered a Wii and New super mario bros Wii on Tuesday. My package arrived here today (Thursday) via UPS. I think they only ship via UPS for consoles. Also as soon as it ships (usually within 24 hours of your order) go to GS website and go under my orders, the email took forever to get to me with the tracking info. There will be the tracking info. If you click on the link it'll take you to the USPS site by default but if you copy the numbers over to the UPS site there will be your shipment

It will vary. Gamestop uses both USPS and UPS. I have made 5-6 orders as of recently, and right now 2 of them came UPS and the others came USPS. And I will say UPS is much, much slower, so hopefully they dont ship it UPS

For games, most of the time, GS uses the USPS. For consoles and accessories (or anything that doesn't fit in a bubble envelope), they use UPS.

Hmm, it's been a couple days but my order is still saying "verifying". Is that normal? And now the product page says it's backordered even though I ordered when it was in stock so will they still ship it out to me?

4 days later and they finally shipped it through UPS ground shipping.

Check the tracking number on the UPS site because the package could have shipped sooner, but the GS site wasn't updated until just now. I had that happen with a recent package - the tracking data for a package ordered on a Tuesday night didn't show up until Friday morning. The box arrived that Monday.

i just placed an order for a gift card and i used old gift cards to buy it. Its been a week now and when i check the balance on the gift cards used to buy it, it still shows their original amount. When will they be $0, when the card arrives? do i have to activate it?

I have always gotten my orders from UPS express even though I get value shipping.

I get almost everything through UPS. I did just order a game and I'm getting it via USPS though.

You need to check your status on Gamestop.com to see if its been shipped or not. They don't charge until its shipped. So if the games are backordered or pending, then your gift card won't get "charged" for it yet until they ship the games out.
