Well for ShopTo purchasers there is this article : http://www.incgamers.com/News/26039/retailer-hires-weekend-warehouse-staff-to-fulfill-gt5-orders

posted today - 19th November, talks about ShopTos shipping policy and includes this :

"The online store, which previously told IncGamers it has seen pre-orders ‘go through the roof’, said today: “Our first consignment of Gran Turismo 5 will be arriving at our warehouse Saturday morning”.

So, if that is right, they aren't getting any stock deliverd until Saturday :/

Almost there! Yesterday my Play.com order said 'pre-order'. This morning it said 'ordered' and now it says 'packing'.

I think I'll wait patiently at my door for the postman and give him a cake when he arrives

Same here I'm on packing too. I can't wait. Hopefully if dispatches tomorrow I should have it by monday. But the when do I get my stealth cars, wednesday or will the code be with the game.
 
Does anyone know if stores like Game and Gamestation have CE edition in store because they don't seem to have them online. Only standard and signature editions are available...
 
wow, surely, they will be sending them out every day from saturday then? if they are planning to get them all out by release day?
 
ehhh i must w8 until 24 to go to my local game shop..... the game uk didnt want to send signature edition to ireland....

It says that they will dispatch the code by e-mail the week the game releases, so it seems we'll have them Monday at the earliest.
 
Mine is 'Packing' on Play.com.

Mind you I've had stuff 'Packing' on Play for days before, so I'm not holding my breath.


Scaff

I JUST HAD A HEART ATTACK.

Game sent me an e-mail saying my bank denied payment (No idea why, I have enough to buy like 100 copies.) and I thought maybe there would be no signature editions left...

Should have seen me panic trying to find my bank card to re-place the order haha. All done now though, just means I'll be at the back of the queue.

Kind of annoying since I ordered it the second it was available at game.co.uk, but it shouldn't change the date that I get it...providing the payment goes through before release I should get it on Wednesday.

Damn, what happened? Did your card expire between when you preordered and now?

I got a new card since pre-order so I guess the old one expired.

I thought the bank would automatically re-route it to my new card though. I didn't change accounts, just got a new card. Interesting.

Was worried about my order as well as I recently changed my address with the bank but the info registered with GAME is the old address.

However all went through well (guess that the bank is slow processing the address change) and they took payment already.
 
Well in some ways I both happy and sad at the same time,you see initially I order my GT5 standard edition back in august-september,then I play the demo and I find out that I coulnt understand a thing,so I held my copy of the JP version and writo to Amazon that I needed a US version instead,everything looking good so far until they sent me an e-mail saying that my copy will not arrive until December the 12-13,which sort of anoy me because I pay 60 buck for the thing(well 8730 yen),and they say that will be in my doors by nov 4,then nov 27(I dont have time to pick it up so they deliver at my house),but then they say that the deliver will be done on dec 13-14 because it will shipping some copies from the US.

I dont get it,they should have some copies of the thing on JP and still they dont have any,language settinfg will not be avaible for the JP ver,just the Pal I think(Kaz said 12 laguages,but it should be for the whole game,not one langauge per area).

In any case I wont be playing until December so :ouch:
 
For those of you in the USA who pre-ordered from newegg.com at a great deal of $48 shipped, well I've got news for you. I just spoke with customer service asking of when my GT5 will ship and they told me that orders will start to process the day of the release date & I will not be receiving on the release day :odd:...:(...:irked:...:mad:...:banghead:

Looks like I'll be going to Wal Mart 24 hour store and buying it at midnight and returning the pre-ordered copy
 
So I had to Nip out to do that four letter thing Today WORK...!!!!!!!!! , Whilst out Popped into my Local Tesco Superstore as I thought "hey if they have Pre-Orders and there Open 24 Hours I might get a Copy of GT5 at 00-01 💡

But would you believe it they've not got any GT5 Advertising , nothing whatsoever so I grabbed a Member of their Staff and asked about GT5

Me " Are you going to be selling GT5 on Pre-Order as I can't find any Information ?"

Staff Member "eh..!!"

Me "Oh never Mind"

Then I popped into Blockbuster...!!! On the Counter in a Handwritten Note taped artistcailly to the Desk (no expence spared huh)

"Its here at last GT5 Avialable on the 24/11/10 Pre-Order Now for Only"

So I asked the Manager if they Actually had it in Stock

Her Answer "I'm not allowed to say anything about our Stock , no one is"

ME "Well Game told me they have it Stock there just waiting till the Release Date , so why would I place a Pre-Order with you if you can't tell me if its even in stock ?"

Her "It's due for Release on....."

Me "Yes I know"

Her "If you pay for it you can Collect at 9 am on Wednesday"

Me " But why the hell am I supposed to give my Money in Advance for a Item you can't even tell if you have it in Stock ?"

Her No Comment

Hmm, I'd heard about this sort of thing happening more recently too. It's only happened to me once so far with Play - but that was an old(ish) film on offer at the time.

With so many rumours and potential early dispatch dates, plus the sheer quantity they must have to process, I'm thinking they'll dispatch over the weekend - it is Royal Mail they use after all, not the most reliable when it comes to predicting a precise delivery date :)
