Pre-order or Reserve???

[kao-chan]

Simple question. Which should I do? Should I pre-order KH2 and take a risk on it getting lost in the mail or something else? Or reserve KH2 and take a risk on the retailer dumbly selling my copy to another person?

and when will they start letting people reserve copies?

i Reserve my copy like two long and painful years ago so u can reserve it

 

[duskhunter]

i say you go to game stop and pre-order like they arnt aloud to sell it but u can pick it up or get it sent in mail =)

Huh?
Wait, ok so you're saying that you can't just pay for it now, then go on the 29th and show them the reciept or whatever and have them hand it to you?
I thought that's how it went.

Well, I just reserved it. GameStop just makes you pay a $5 deposit to gurantee you'll get a copy. But if you're scared you'll lose your copy to another person, you'll just have to go to GameStop ASAP. I'd go with reserving, seems safer than losing it in the mail.

Reserved mine at EB Games. They also make you pay a 5 dollar deposit, but I put a $7.60 deposit on my game because I bought a game that day, and I had a little extra change left.

Wow, this whole reserving thing just seems way more complicated than what I had expected.

preorders don't come in the mail they are given to you from the ups

dude reserving is NOT complicated. basically you say "i got dibs on this game" you can pay however much you want at the pre-order...you can pay 5 dollars now, and 45 later, or all 50 now, or 30 now and 20 later..it doesn't matter you pay what you want, but then the day it comes out they hold the copy you reserve/pre-ordered until you get there. so you have a 100% guarantee that you get the game. pre-order and reserve are the same thing.

never trust mail reserve it cause if he stupidly sells it and he has a copy for himself demand u get that copy.

just camp out fornt of the store and if u cant do that ask someone who can and if u know no one who can ask the clerk to hide a copy for u. thats wat I did for GTA.

yah. i tried to get this game, i think it was Shadow of the Colossus, and i had to wait 2 WEEKS before the reserves were all taken. so i suggest you get a reserved copy (i did).

The only problem with that is that KH2 comes out on a Tuesday...
You think it's worth skipping school?
...wait, dumb question

 

[Madness]

Hmmmm.... I was going to just order mine off the internet. Now I think I'll just reserve it at GameStop. It'll definitely be cheaper.

 

[Engulfed]

I never really trusted the internet to get stuff.
Well, everything except for Ebay .

 

[Madness]

Heh, almost everything I buy I do through the internet.

 

[Engulfed]

Have you ever had a problem?

 

[Madness]

Once. A DVD got damaged during shipping.

 

[Engulfed]

Wow, that's it?
Still, that sucks.
