So I pre ordered GTA V in July this summer from ebgames.ca and I did the order where they ship it to you. I was wondering because it said it will deliver within 10 business days. Will it come in late because of all the hype with GTA V and the many pre orders there are? I am sure many people have it pre ordered and I was wondering if my copy will get delivered quicker than someone else who, lets say, pre ordered it today. Ju

no, that won't make a difference. it only takes a day or two to ship a game via first class usps.

you probably wont get it on release day, as the 10 days means from the release day.

I want to say most places should ship it a few days before release day, but they might ship it on release day.

You will get it whenever the UPS guy has finished it.

Might be a good idea to give them a call or send an email and ask approximately when it can be delivered to you?

The logistics of shipping pre-ordered games to thousands of individuals and have them all get there the same day must be mind-boggling. A few lucky souls get it a day early, and more likely a day late. That's just the day it is.

He'll get the same answer - 10 business days. Once the seller hands it off to the shipper it's out of their hands. It probably won't take 10 business days, that's just a standard estimate so that people aren't harrassing the seller and/or shipper when their package hasn't arrived the day after they ordered it.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I guess I most likely won't be getting it the first day :(. I should have done the pick up pre order where I can just go to the closest ebgames and pick it up rather than having it shipped to me which takes longer.
