    After they let me down with Monster Hunter yesterday I decided to preorder elsewhere with Spidey. They still haven't shipped to any monster hunter preorders afaik. I ended up getting JB to price match them. TheGamesmen have always been good in the past with this stuff and they're a family run Aussie business.

      JB price matched Amazon? That's great!

      • +1

        Yep, lots of us at WP done this.

      • Called up JB (that's where my pre-order's at at the moment) and they say you'd match it on release date meaning if Amazon jumps back to $69 on release date we're SOL. Are we taking this risk? /gulp

        • Worth the risk if you think Amazon wont be able to deliver it on release day and you want to play as soon as possible.

        • Amazon won't jump the price day one but day two is possible.

        • +1

          @yummycoot: Nevermind cancelled JB. 10% cashback is just too good.

        • +1

          @Where's_That_Cake: They just did.

    • Wait they don't ship preorders before the release date?
      Might cancel mine in that case.

      • I've had 2 preorders from them, neither shipped before release but Monster Hunter still hasn't shipped for anyone I know which released yesterday.

        • Screw that ill just buy on release day then from JB.

        • My MonHun just shipped today and is coming tomorrow apparently, but I pre-ordered Dragon Quest and Tomb Raider and those were saying they were going to arrive at least 3 days after the release date, so I cancelled them. Not going to bother with pre-orders from Amazon anymore

      • I see release date delivery explicitly stated under Free Expedited Delivery. Is that for Prime members only?

  • So this pretty much apply to FIFA19 too.

  • Amazon AU usually price matches with OZgameshop, but haven't done so with Shenmue 1&2 Xbox One ($49) but only with the PS4 version ($43.99).

    It's like Amazon is watching ozbargain and price-matching when deals get posted here

  • +1

    (profanity), now I'm a bit bummed.

    Let's hope EB will match, otherwise I might can the order.

    • Curious what success you’ll have. My preorder is there too.

      • Hopefully they'll do it, but I doubt they will.

        Problem is, I'll have to wait until release day to find out, meaning if they don't do it, I'll be "forced" to pay 69, either at EB there, or at Big W or JB anyway, the only way to get it for this price might then be through Amazon. And if I place the order on release day, it won't get to me for 2 or 3 more days minimum, and at that point, I'd rather just pay the few bucks extra and get the "free" day one preorder DLC.

        Options are either cancel the EB order now, end up with money on a gift card as I paid it off with trade credit from the preorder promotion, and then end up spending 60 odd bucks out of actual money on Amazon anyway, all to just save a few bucks, and miss out on the DLC as well, shit. I might just stick with EB anyway, but when they ask me to give them the remaining 31 bucks (paid off exactly 69) I'll try to match Amazon first, failing that, then JB's next I guess.

        Good luck either way if you're gonna give it a crack.

        • $69 vs $56.45, I'm going $56.45. All those DLC add on's can be unlocked in game. The DLC is kinda like a small cheat for $13.55 PTNEW, (Pay To Not Even Win). I'd prefer EB Games as well, but I doubt I'll be returning this and any benefit to Carrots is outweighed by the savings.

        • +1

          @FabMan: Yeah, I'm thinking that too.

          Not only did their stupid carrots never mean anything to me, but I'm a few thousand over the amount for level 4 anyway, so unless they decide to bring in a level 5 for everyone, they ain't of any use to me.

  • +1

    Nice price but cautious about this game. Going to wait for some reviews.

    • I'm diving the edge off a tall building expecting the web slinger to save me.

    • -1

      Wow damn if you're cautious about this one you must trust no one at all. Hopefully it'll be good man.

      • I have a gut feeling this will be mostly swing all over the city to collect things and do repetitive side quests with about 6-9 hours of other missions.

        • go read the review, embargo lifted. It's Arkham City in a much lighter setting. aka an epic game.

  • dam if they cant ship out on release day might as well get retail shops early in the morning … disappointed but not going to lose sleep still cheap for anyone who wants it cheap and not in a rush.

    • Thanks for letting us know if it's a deal or not 😂

  • This is Ozbargain, not Ozimpatience ;)

    Nice work OP.

    No coupons/discounts for new Amazon signups is there?

    • If you have amazon prime its faster 30day free trial :) used mine though :L

  • Don't forget 10% cash back via NAB credit card.

  • Am I missing something here? Showing as $69

    • Try again perhaps, still showing $62.70 for me across multiple devices.

      • Thanks, did the trick, not sure what was going on. Going to roll the dice and see how an Amazon Preorder goes re: delivering to Perth on day of launch. I have the day off though so if it doesn't look like it's on it's way on the day I might just pop into EB and pick up a copy or something

        • hm what was the trick? I'm seeing $69… maybe I left it too late?

  • How can I confirm whether Cashrewards has worked? the "My Rewards" section of the Cashrewards website hasn't updated, but perhaps this is because it is a pre-order and it won't update until next Friday?

    • +1

      The actual cashback doesn't show up until after a few days. If you want, you could go to the 'Click History' tab to confirm that it did register your click through and eventual purchase on Amazon.

      tl;dr: It doesn't show up instantly.

      • I did notice that after I posted the comment. I also received an e-mail this morning confirming it worked.

  • +1

    How does the cashback work on preorders? Doesn't your credit card only get charged once the item has been sent?

    • In my case, I pre-ordered this late yesterday night and received an e-mail from Cashrewards this morning stating that the cashback has been added to my rewards balance. Looking at the item in the list on Cashrewards, it shows that it is still pending with the following message: The rewards for this transaction are currently pending and is within the confirmation period for this store.

    Amazon put it back up at $69 so all you suckers looking to price match at JB on day one to support local business etc etc SOFL LOL. Good on ya.

  • Has anyone's order status changed to 'shipped'? Mine hasn't shipped yet…not sure if it'll arrive tomorrow anymore :(

    • Not yet. At the same time it says to be delivered by tomorrow 8pm. Not ideal but still the same day!

    • Nope, and I'm going to filthy about it if it doesn't show up tomorrow. It specifically said release day delivery, so I shipped it to where I'll be tomorrow; not my home address. If it doesn't show up tomorrow; I'll have to wait a week to play the bastard thing, as that's the next time I'll be at the address I shipped to.

      Also, can't cancel and change address as of yesterday as they've already processed the payment.

      • I hit up chat.

        "Taduri: I see that shipment ID is generated for the order and it will be shipped soon and I could also confirm you that there is no other issue with the order. So, please don't worry that the order hasn't been shipped yet.

        Me: It's just it usually takes two days for Amazon parcels to arrive to me; not one. Are they being sent via a different method?

        Taduri: I could relate to your concern Brad, actually the thing is we have many orders for this particular product, so as a special case, we are using air freight to ship these products. It will be with you tomorrow."

        • That's kinda reassuring. To be fair something similar to this happened to me last time during the Prime Day sales. My package was never marked as "Shipped", but I received it anyway on the day it was expected to arrive. Maybe it was sent via air freight and they have different processes to Aus Post, just as the rep described…

        • Amazon is VERY experienced in dealing with next day delivery man don't panic.

        • @Penpinch: Just got a TOLL shipping notice. I'm not stressed anymore. Haha.

        • @Penpinch:
          In the US yes but we're in slow Aus here

        • @BradH13: Where are you located? They're using AusPost with mine.

        • @Penpinch: 90km south of Adelaide.

    • It's been shipped as of 4:46pm!

    • Mine shipped also!

  • +2

    Mine got shipped at 4.27pm via Fastway. My mate and next door neighbour is the Fastway driver for my area, I might get mine delivered first thing in the morning.

    • +1

      Called in sick yet?

      • Delivered at 7.15am. Hell yeah, I'm off working waiting for some furniture delivery anyway. I just dropped my wife at the train station, my son at childcare and the game is installing. 43GB by the way + whatever update that will come after the installation. Have fun fellows!

        • 43gb….. fk me silly.

        • @Penpinch: … and 3.345GB update.

        • +1

          @rodtp: Mine just arrived. Let the download begin.

  • +1

    Mine status says out for delivery this morning :)

    • Mine should arrive before 10am as it's marked as "out for delivery" in my suburb as of 5:44am.

  • Mine was delivered at 9am this morning, coulfn't have got it faster from the shops. Good game, amazing engine.

  • After seeing multiple comments on people receiving theirs even as early as 7 am, I guess we don't need to be worried about Amazon shipping it after release date…

    • I never did but I understand why some would worry if they had bad prior experience.

      From my experience with Amazon US (in the US), Amazon CA (in Canada), and Amazon AU here, they have NEVER missed a delivery promise.

      • Mine didn’t arrive via Australia Post. Last tracking update was at 5:58AM when it got processed at the chullora depot in sydney.

        • so it's still MIA? Amazon's delivery promise is before 8pm so it's either coming real soon or completely MIA.

        • @Penpinch:

          Still no update, might be MIA. Will pick up a copy from bigw and return the amazon one if it does end up arriving

    • 7:23pm here and mine hasn't been delivered sadly. It got shipped via Fastway yesterday (Thursday) afternoon so I'll hold out for another 40 minutes but otherwise quite disappointed. Sydney based here and the facility was only a few suburbs away.

      • 8:16pm - It didn't come. Not sure if they'll deliver over the weekend..
