[QUOTE=Shoe Phone;29219896]It may be because I ordered it for the PC and you got it for the 360.[/QUOTE]
Possibly. But it's weird that it's $9 extra for an item the same size.
[QUOTE=Shoe Phone;29219896]It may be because I ordered it for the PC and you got it for the 360.[/QUOTE]
I got release date shipping even though I ordered the pc version.
Weird, it's isn't giving me the option for release date shipping when I went into the ordering process for the PC version.

Really? Hmm, I recall seeing something about release date shipping when I first ordered it so I'm going to cancel the current order and try again. Also, I'm from U.S. so there shouldn't be any trouble with shipping.

I believe you need Amazon Prime for that.
Hmm, well you probably selected One-Day shipping because:
Standard Shipping: $4.98
Two-Day Shipping: $7.98
One-Day Shipping: $9.98
Release Date Shipping: The option isn't available.
This might do you some good:

Here's a chart that shows all of the Shipping prices:

[QUOTE=Shugo;29220139]I believe you need Amazon Prime for that.[/QUOTE]
I guess so. I just went back and ordered it again but release date shipping wasn't there, maybe flapjack and tank can confirm if they have Amazon Prime.
Nevermind, I have Prime and these are the shipping options I got (AKA the usual Prime options):

If anyone without Prime wants free two-day shipping, I could do it for you, but you'd have to trust me with your credit card info and address. :fuckyou:

I don't.
I don't have prime either.
Although it Release Date Shipping is list on all of the versions pages, I am only getting the option for PS3 and Xbox. Here is the PS3's shipping options:

Weird it doesn't give me release date option anymore if I try to order it again (I wanted to try a second time to see if I could walk you through it). Here's what it looks like in my cart (original order)

Just started a support live chat with Amazon.
Maybe too many people were trying to do release date shipping? Strange.
This support rep is taking forever!

[quote]Me:I am looking at the Portal 2 for PC info page and it says that it is eligible for Release Date shipping. However, when I go to check out, the option isn't listed. I tried this for the PS3 and Xbox versions of the game, and Release Date shipping is an option during checkout. What is the problem?
Raghavender:Hello, my name is Raghavender. I'll be happy to help you today.
Can you hold for a minute or two while I look in to this for you?
Me:Sure
Raghavender:I'm sorry but as of now this option is not available for you because of some reason. I request you to Place the order with one day shipping and I'll follow up with you and refund the shipping for you.
Me:No thanks. But thanks for checking.
Raghavender:You’re welcome. Is there anything else I can help you with today?[/quote]
So if anyone wants Release day shipping, contact support through [url]https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/contact-us/general-questions.html[/url]
Neat. Who knew Amazon had good customer support.
To me the guy said that the deadline for release date delivery is 5 days from release, so i guess a few hours ago was the deadline then.
[editline]16th April 2011[/editline]
fuck that for free shipping it'll take 15 days
I'm a bit worried that since the option isn't available anymore, that my game will be shipped later.

As long as yours still says Release Date shipping selected it shouldn't matter.
I've been sitting in customer support chat for awhile now... Yeah, they take their time.

Rage.
Halfway through I realized she sound eerily like GLaDOS. Anyway, I'm going to try again and hopefully I'll get Raghavender.
You guys may want to copy and paste my question, or tell that you've been talking on a forum and another rep gave me the option for free one day shipping.
And they obviously can't afford to do release date shipping for $1 like one day before the release.
A dude named Vivek is going to refund me the shipping cost when it's shipped.
Does 1 day shipping mean basically same day? It says estimated April 21st but that just makes no sense.
Would it be like Ship(19)>1 day(20)> arrival(21)? That's three days, basically. Or do they ship before release?
