    Just got a phone call for my order, they still haven't consolidated stock and I was asked to wait a few more days (apparently early next week). My purchases were for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 (PS3) and New Super Luigi U (Wii U). So basically, another asking to wait until a later date.

    On the plus side, its nice to actually have them get in contact… only took 11 days at 20 minutes to be told basically nothing.

    • Circly on 29/11/2013 - 10:11

      lol wait till monday again…

  • Lucifersfury82 on 29/11/2013 - 09:54

    When I was in Target Charlestown last night I noticed that they had Pokemon Soul Silver on "Clearance" for $49, I know its not a fantastic price compared to the Good Guys however would be a solution to someone that wants a copy and not pay an excessive amount for it. Had 4 or 5 copies left.

  • Gehirn on 29/11/2013 - 10:07

    Does anyone else have games in their order saying "ready to pick up" even though its meant to be delivered and not a store pickup ?

    • rukia on 29/11/2013 - 10:58

      Mine does for one out of 12 games

  • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 10:55

    Hey guys, just an update.

    I received part of my order and one of the games (not the the "official" list) is the EU version. This is really strange, I would have thought that TGG provides AU stock and that it should not be EU stock.

    Is there is something wrong with them providing me EU stock?

    • RichardL on 29/11/2013 - 10:58

      It should still work as EU version are also PAL which should be compatible on Australian Console.

      • Scaregdearimasu on 29/11/2013 - 11:04
        +2

        yeah but if they didn't claim it to be EU version I feel thats wrong. EU versions should be worth slightly less than the AU versions since now you the customer will have to go out of your way to set up a EU psn account to buy/use any dlc.

        • RichardL on 29/11/2013 - 11:08
          +3

          I understand, but I would rather have an EU version, then no games at all…

        • HomeAlone on 29/11/2013 - 13:40

          What was the game, platform and which European region?

    • theguyrules on 29/11/2013 - 10:59
      +1

      The plot thickens. I think because the site advertised them as Australian PAL in the photos, they should technically provide you with Aus copies.

      • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:16

        The thing is since it was taken down, there is no longer any proof. Unless of course the picture in the email counts.

        • theguyrules on 29/11/2013 - 11:17

          Which it would. I don't think it's wrong to expect Aus PAL games…

        • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:22
          +4

          Great. Now I have to contact TGG again and be put on hold for half and hour…

          Well, I guess its time to build up my case with the ACCC.

        • Circly on 29/11/2013 - 12:05
          +2

          theres nothing wrong with an EU copy…

        • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 12:06
          +3

          No, you're not getting it.

          TGG advertised AU stock and sent me EU stock. Also, this renders the ClubNintendo Code unusable in Australia.

      • Scaregdearimasu on 29/11/2013 - 11:20
        +1

        I think most people would think if they were showing you a AUS pal picture that's what you'd get. Now if they didn't use a stock photo and took their own photo with the Sticker over the eu rating I'd be slightly less upset but by selling imported stock without telling you it does slightly devalue ($10 game or not They should be upfront about it.) your purchase. Also a mother could be buying this for their kids and then the kid wants to buy or use the reg code that came with it but can't because it's not for their AU console.

        • theguyrules on 29/11/2013 - 11:22
          +3

          I would argue that if we got an EU copy of the game, we didn't received the product we paid for.

    • rukia on 29/11/2013 - 11:00
      +2

      Most of the time EU versions are exactly the same as the AU version, just no Australian rating. Wouldn't worry too much about it.

      Maybe theyve resorted to importing cheap copies to fill the orders.

      Out of curiosity, what game is it?

      • Circly on 29/11/2013 - 11:02

        same thing basically just you wouldnt be able to use the nintendo points on your AU account (if it was a 3ds game)

        • Scaregdearimasu on 29/11/2013 - 11:06
          +1

          another way the purchase is devalued if they didn't outright state it being an import version.

        • rukia on 29/11/2013 - 11:06
          +3

          The things on club nintendo are rubbish anyway, no loss there

        • rukia on 29/11/2013 - 11:07
          +5

          Devalued? It's a $10 game. I'd be happy to buy brand new imports for $10 a game

        • theguyrules on 29/11/2013 - 11:09

          I bought the Game and Watch Collection with my Club Nintendo stars, and sold it for $55 inc shipping. Got the new Zelda with the money. Worth.

        • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:12

          Wait. That game is worth that much?

        • theguyrules on 29/11/2013 - 11:16

          I ordered it cause it was selling for ~$70. But I wanted to sell it quickly so I listed it for $50. Collectors are hardcore.

        • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:17

          How long did it take for you to receive it though? The nintendo hotline is absolutely useless. Told me 4 weeks for delivery even though they are shipping locally.

        • theguyrules on 29/11/2013 - 11:18

          About 2 weeks, maybe a bit less.

        • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:26

          Any idea why this game seems to be worth so much? Collector's item? Not purchasable anywhere else?

        • theguyrules on 29/11/2013 - 11:28

          The only way to get it is through Club Nintendo, with 2500 stars, which is a lot of games. I guess its just cheaper for some people to buy it, rather than buy the games to redeem it.

    • [Deactivated] on 29/11/2013 - 11:09

      So they can source more games from UK? Great!
      Also just had a thought, for games that can be sourced via download code/digital version, it should be cheaper to supply and hence a more affordable and easily available solution (esp. for xbox, ps3). Is this a possibility for orders where physical stock cannot be found at all?

      • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:14

        Nah, download codes breeds problems.

        TGG might claim they have emailed the codes, customers might claim they have not received it.

        Intangible goods have this problem

        • [Deactivated] on 29/11/2013 - 11:23

          Sorry I meant physical redemption tokens that have the code on them.

        • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:26

          Those would probably be even harder to source.

    • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:11

      The issue that I can concerned with is are AU retailers allowed to sell EU stock?

      I know that it is compatible but that's not of concern.

      Its a 3DS game that is not on the list.

      On another note, I also received Resident Evil Revelations. The box and Club Nintendo card shows AUS but on the game card itself, it says EUR… Just curious if anyone knows why a EUR game card is in AUS packaging.

      • rukia on 29/11/2013 - 11:17

        JB and EB often sell EU stock, they are the ones that have an Australian ratings sticker on the outside of the case.

        • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:19

          But underneath the Australian Ratings Sticker is the EU Pegi rating right?

          My copy of resident evil has a printed Australian rating and says distributed by nintedo australia behind. Just wondering why it has a EUR game card inside.

        • theguyrules on 29/11/2013 - 11:38

          Was your game sealed?

        • lamerthanlam on 29/11/2013 - 11:48

          Only the non-listed EU game was sealed.

          Resident Evil Revelations wasn't sealed.

          AFAIK, 3DS games are usually not sealed in AU retail stores.

      • carolinehaf on 29/11/2013 - 11:36
        +6

        I've had this happen with EB games etc… no big deal, I would be FAR happier getting an EU version than none at all! You're talking about $10 games that are brand new, wouldn't be arguing seriously…

          LOL reminds me of the time i bought a brand new nds game from fairfield eb. They gave me an unsealed game and said this was to ensure games aren't stolen from the shelves which is reasonable. I went home to find that there was a save file on it already. Took it back and saw the guy in the store room putting it into a store ds and disappeared for 10 mins. Came back out the said he got me a 'brand new' one (obviously he didn't).

          And if you are not happy with the UK game you can just send it back and get a refund in accordance with Australian consumer law as it is different to what you ordered.

      No. I've never received any more communication from the GG's other than the generic emails they spammed out to everyone a week ago.

      Despite the assurances I have never received a phone call, and Carla stated that would be the only way they would contact us earlier in the thread, despite email being quicker, personalised and, y'know, an actual record of what you are being told by GG customer care.

      Looks like GG aren't prepared to send anyone else into the lion's den of the OzBargain forums either. Guess we must make them all "shudder".

      • watty on 29/11/2013 - 12:11

        The call is useless anyway, the person on the phone didn't provide anymore information than what was on this thread.

    • R.R.P on 29/11/2013 - 12:10

      Nope. Just that email everyone else got.

    • [Deactivated] on 29/11/2013 - 12:16

      No however I called them and after 10 minutes on the waiting list I got pleasing results.
      I've gone from 0/7 to 1/7 (from the list) now to guaranteed 2/7 likely 7/7.

      Apparently Luigi is in transit to their processing hub while the other 6 including one from the magic list are all as likely as each other.

      He also said that all information should be known by close today regarding all orders. If you don't get anything today try tomorrow if the number is open.

    Honestly, if we don't hear something by the end of the day it might be worth taking this en masse to their Twitter and Facebook pages. This has pretty much flown under the radar and just been contained to OzBargain, might be time to go wider with the whole thing. Especially the shiny customer care aspect of it all. Broken promises and spin are all I've seen from GG.

  • ow on 29/11/2013 - 12:45

    Got a call and staff said I'll be getting 2 pokemon games and the rest of the other 12 games they don't know but will give me call back early next week.

    I got a call this afternoon and was told that I would definitely be getting Pokémon White Version 2. He said there will be a follow up call if they can't supply the rest and that if I don't hear from them then I would be getting everything. The other games I ordered were PS3 games plus Kid Icarus Uprising. The PS3 games I don't really care about but I was hoping to get the Kid Icarus.

    He said if they can't supply everything in my order that I would receive a gift card as well as a refund. The gift card will be emailed.

  • Dominus on 29/11/2013 - 14:37

    Hey guys,

    Just want to let everyone know I received a call from their call centre who was really quite helpful and patient. He ran me through both my orders and was apologetic about the first order having 3 of 5 games cancelled without my consent (although no offer of a giftcard - games were Luigi U, kid icarus and the prof layton game). He informed me that 4 of the 12 games I ordered in my larger order had been allocated to me and they were just waiting for the stock to be on hand - it sounded like they were consolidating everything before sending out orders instead of letting individual stores/franchisees handle the mess.

    The four games I had allocated to me were Forza 4, Super Street Fighter 4, Black Ops 2 (PS3) and Lego City Undercover on 3DS as per the email sent to everyone. He couldn't tell me what the status of the other 8 games were but said hopefully they would know by early next week what they'd been able to secure. There's no duplicates in either order and if people are curious I'm happy to list the other 8 games if it helps them with their own orders and understanding what may be backorder only

    Honestly I was pretty happy with the phone call, so be patient guys hopefully you'll be contacted shortly if you haven't been already. I don't think there's any real order to it (my order was placed about 6:35am on the day the deal was ozbargain'd)

    I got 2 of my 3 games just then.

    Both unsealed, display stock, loaded with stickers, scratches cases, one is cracked and has chunks missing.

    One of the games (Gears of War 3) is UK stock with Aus OFLC stickers. The disc is also dirty and has marks on it.

    No idea when I'm getting the 3rd game, it says back-ordered on the invoice so I guess I'll have to wait and see.

    Not impressed, if I had of known I was getting 2nd hand quality stock I wouldn't have bothered.

PS3 Dance party (no case/sleeve) & UFC move trainer (box looking a little beat up) – still waiting for BF3 & COD 2 – invoice shows status as backorder – don’t like the chances of seeing these but you never know. Should receive a refund and $40 gift card if they don’t arrive so really can't complain.

    Why is everyone getting second hand copies of the games?

    This isn't going to end well.

    Wait a minute, so the games being delivered aren't even new? It wasn't stated that these were pre-owned. What kind of condition are they coming in? Because no cases, no sleeves and beaten up boxes sounds dodgy as.

      Well because the stock has been sitting on shelf with no protection, cases and booklets can get stolen. And the cases will get scratched with everyone picking them up and stock being moved. Minor surface scratches may be forgiveable but they should really be putting them in security cases and not opening them at all.

    3.30pm here and no sign of any delivery trucks and still no email or call. I guess will have to wait another week for more news. ZZzzzzZzZzz

    i actually feel like homer simpson right now.

    been at my computer all day, mobile phone next to me assuming that i'll get a call from the good guys at some point.

    take a 2minute bathroom break.

    come back and find a missed call from one of their outbound numbers.

    why.. why? aaaaah.

    what should i do from here? ring up their 1300 number?

    I've been well and truly blown away. Courier Please just delivered 2 of the 3 vita games I ordered, and one on back order. And just to think last Saturday i had a call saying i wouldn't get anything, Now that's what happens when OZBargain members stand our ground together and not take no for an answer. Well done everyone, and I'm still here as support if it helps any.

    Bashed up, scratched up, missing sleeves, dozens of stickers and broken cases?!?!?

    I'm not expecting prefect sealed games… but this is starting to sound like they are sourcing their back order stock from Cash Converters…

    Each time I come back to read this thread and read of all the blunders - I imagine this song playing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WZha_LHVS8

    It really is Amateur Hour at The 'Good' Guys.
