You left it a week before Christmas to order it. You should have gotten it weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted December 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 fair dos, it would probably have been better to buy it from a shop, but the website deal was cheaper than most places on the high street, and it did state that if you ordered that day it would arrive before christmas. the DS not arriving is a bit annoying, but my main beef is the customer service dept. surely you would take on more staff closer to christmas?

All your gaming needs met no bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be down to the Royal Mail though if it is being delivered by them, especially the amount of mail at this time of year.Another problem might be the fact that Nintendo have sold over 515 000 DS's in Europe since the Wii was launched, so there may be an extra delay waiting for new stock.

KarmaTsunami Posted December 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 really? christ, didn't realise the DS sales shot up too. i would have bought it earlier, but it was my mum getting it for christmas, we've had a hectic season - new kitchen and things going wrong in it etc...she left all her shopping (including my ds) to the last minute. oh well, roll on the post on the 27th!!!

It is run seperatly from the rest of gamestation. Next time you need something give me a shout first! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted December 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 will do! normally i would have just told me mum to buy it from the shop, but the deal on the website was pretty good. as long as it turns up at some point though!and i will be sure to give you a shout next time i need something video-game related. reckon my next purchase will probably be 'Dirge of Cerebrus' or the first 'Guitar Hero'.

psydoll Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 No! Bizzare confusion!Highly amusing though!I wish I'd bought two copies of Zelda now. Cat's at home with her copy and I'm working in the morning so I'm at my flat. With nae Zelda. Just recalled I bought XIII though and Donkey Konga so they may prove excellent backups.Gogogo!
