[quote name='2DMention']Most of the time it seems like Amazon dates are arbatrary and they give you long dates just to cover their ass.[/QUOTE]
They're usually 99% accurate with me when items are actually in stock. Also, Rune Factory 3 is currently in "preparing to ship" mode, according to my account.
[quote name='Hell Monkey']Amazon has been weird lately. I ordered Wheel of Time: Towers of Midnight and Knights in the Nightmares (PSP) a few months ago.
Towers of Midnight released 11/02 and shipped on 11/05. Knights in the NIghtmares released today and is preparing to ship (should go out tomorrow).
I was also reading someone ordered Black Ops with release day shipping and has it as "Preparing to ship" as of today (release day). They're just all over the place with delivery.[/QUOTE]
Glad to hear it isn't just me :/
[quote name='2DMention']Aren't they going with a different courier or something now? I thought I read it somewhere.[/QUOTE]
They use a local, NYC-based courier service for some of our orders, but otherwise we typically get Amazon packages via UPS.
ETA (11/10): Okay,
now I get a delivery notice from Amazon. Got the email last night; it says I should be getting it today.
I hope nothing funny happens with my husband's Cataclysm LE, otherwise chances are I won't hear the end of it
Release day delivery for the SC2 LE worked out for me, so maybe it'll be all right *knock on wood*
