[quote name='imacjenn']I pre-ordered this and was wondering if I could get them to price match. I've heard they will only do that if the price drops before your item actually ships. How did it work in your case? When did you originally order it?
I'm also curious because I ordered Borderlands and it should be shipping today, and that price dropped about two days ago also. I was going to wait to see what I got charged before I email them about that one.[/QUOTE]
Mine was preordered over a month ago. They gave me the discount as the price of the game dropped just after it had entered the shipping phase, though really it had shipped out last Tuesday. You might as well send them an email ASAP and try to get them to give you a refund. Here is the exact message they sent me.
"We issued this refund $6.50 because the price of video game "Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack In Time" decreased just after your order entered the shipping process.
Whenever you pre-order a book, CD, video, DVD, software, or video game sold by Amazon.com, the price we charge when we ship it to you will be the lowest price offered by Amazon.com between the time you placed your order and the release date.
However, if your order enters the shipping process before the release date and the price is lowered before release date, we will automatically refund the difference between the price you were charged and the lowest price between shipment and release date.
Thanks for shopping at Amazon.com."
I hope that helps.
