I just joined gamefly about 2 weeks ago. I rented Assassin's Creed as my first game. I sent it back on July 3, a Thursday, right before the Independence Day weekend. They just received my game on July 10, the next Thursday. Does it usually take this long? I live in New York City and my Gamefly games ship back to the Pittsburg center. Not that far away if you look at a map. I thought it might have something to do with the holiday weekend but does anyone else have this problem? I would think that if you live closer to the distribution center it would be faster. Another question I have is: Is there a difference in shipping time if you put it in a blue collection box as opposed to walking into a post office and handing the mail to them directly? Any answers would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to give up on Gamefly just yet.
Well not usually but there are some ways it might have taken that long. 1st off postal is closed memorial day and sundays so they game didn't move the 4th or 6th. So it probably got there the 7th. Then the next game you had on your game Q probably had an avaliblity level and they had to wait a day to see if they were going to get a copy to send to you. So the next day after the game has either come or not. They send out the next game to you and off course it take 2 days to get there
Thanks for the feedback so far. Ill try it a little while longer and see if this problem still occurs. Any more experiences would still be appreciated.
Oh yeah theres been a few times they've been full of it too. Where they list your game as sent. Weeks go by and nothing, report it, takes few days for them to handle it. Then they send another. But if you go to your account, shows they never even sent that game in the first place.
Only good thing they are worth for is testing games and buying from them at better prices than in the stores.
