Ok guys, i tried posting this in other topic but got no results, so here it go:

Just got this email from cduniverse...

"Order Status Change - Item Discontinued

Hello Diego,

We are writing to let you know that the following items which you ordered on 11/02/11 have experienced a status change.

At the time you placed this order, the item was available from our vendors. Since then, our vendors have discontinued supplying this item.

You do not need to respond. We ask for your patience. We may be able to obtain this item as a special order. Additionally, it is very likely that other retailers are experiencing the same issues with this particular item.

If we do not receive your item by 04/20/12, it will be cancelled. There will be no charge to you unless this item ships."

The bad thing is, I pre ordered the game on august on cduniverse, but on november they were giving 20% coupons, so i cancelled my first order and did this new one.

Now i have no game -_-

Can you guys help me find a new store that ships internationaly? I need the PC version.

Amazon wants to charge me 111$ of "Import Fees Deposit", wich is crazy (IF I am taxed, the amount is 60% of the valour - 80$ the game + 35$ shipment = 115$ = aprox 70$ taxes, again, IF i get taxed).
Gamestop charge 60$ to ship o.O (the normal is around 30$ for priority shipment)
Game.co and shopto.net are out stock so... help!!!


what about the digital CE from Origin as you get all preorder bonuses as well as everything in the CE.... It might all be Digital but at least youll have it all and they even let you download it early probably a couple of days before release so its ready to be played on release date. If mine gets cancelled im gonna go for Origin's nowhere else to get it.


nah, i want the physical edition, i have ME1 and ME2 this way...

Also i want because of the alluminium cover, the litho, artbook and so on.

I dont want a litho transformed in wallpaper and an artbook transformed in a pdf file. :(


ok the only place i know of and they are more expensive are

shop.gameplay.co.uk/webstore/advanced_search.asp

not sure how long its still gonna be on there or if to will ship to you but you can always check before buying...there isnt anywhere else sorry


Yeah i saw this site, but the price is a less expensive isnt it?

I'm considering using a redirection service, so i could bypass this 111$ import fee deposit that amazon charges.

The problem is i never used one, so i'm kinda worried about it...


nah they are about £10 more expansive than what it was on game.co.uk

Ive never used a redirection service before but i doubt itll be cheap tho plus what if the game gets lost in transit? isnt it hard to track a parcel using a redirection service

to be honest it hink anyone who ordered this month may be in trouble of loosing there order, the pre order for the CE has been months in advance and game wouldn't of had the figures of how many copys of the CE they could get, and it possible they only just got notice for the numbers, see over the next few days if other retail places follow the same path

I simulated a purchase on gameplay.co, and even with the game being more expensive, in the end it would become the same price as getting from cduniverse and cheaper then amazon (without the fee taxes).

Why? There is only 1 international shipping option, that costs about 5 pounds.

The problem is, the site doesn't give any info if i will get a tracking number, estimated dates and so on. Not even when the credit card is charged (i'm guessing it will be when is shipped)

I send them an email, but at this time, i will only get a reply tomorrow...

@DiegoRaphael As they are the same company as game.co.uk im guessing the way they do shipping is the same. they dont charge your card until it is dispatched, for an international order you wont know a tracking number until then if there is one, you should get an estimated delivery date nearer the time not sure when exactly. Basically until they ship it you probably wont get anymore info on when you will get it but you will if the order goes through. They try to ship preorders in plenty of time so you get the game on release date but im not too sure how that works for international orders. Id say as you want the physical edition to order it now while you still can

Ditto. Thats why my friend waited so long before pre-ordering. GAME did not list on their site at all they had any bonuses so she kept checking back overtime then I found out for her on here they were getting them but are not informing the customers on their site. Thats when she pre-ordered last week and got messed around after order accepted they cancelled on her today.

Can Chris answer this or someone who has in past ordered through Origin a CE.

Would it be possible do you think if I pre-ordered the digital copy of CE through Origin, that I could then give her the code if has one which can let her have the N7 Warfare pack on her 360 CE copy (non Game.co.uk if orders CE from elsewhere)? In the past when registered content on one format it unlocked it on all formats of account own. So wondering if digital comes with code I can give her so she has the pack instead of me


Imho it is really bad practice for them to not tell customers on their site when have bonuses as not everyone reads BSN or rings them up to ask that very specific question as opposed to looking on their site listings. Then do not list such bonuses right up past the time when cannot any longer even get aforementioned bonuses. Such is life I guess but I hope Ebay isn't the only way to get codes in the end because there is paying slightly more and then there is being bent over and having your bank balance raped by other Ebay users on price.

I plan on importing it from Amazon.com, the previous Mass Effects were region free on 360.  It's about a tenner  more expensive, what with delivery and all, maybe your friend would like to do the same.

I thought 360 all games were region locked? Which is why never considered doing such or advising it to her.

Depends on the game, here's  a link   http://gaming.wikia...._Xbox_360_Games
I could be wrong however, I'm just basing this on the previous Mass effects.

Not sure what to make of that site since doesn't seem to explain the table itself, whether "Yes" means that title was not region locked for that region listed or "No" means it is not region locked for that region.

In which case I would like answer from Chris or someone on the development team to say whether 360 version of ME3 is region locked since ME3 is not on the list and would pose risk of ordering something cannot play if turns out to be region locked.

Well here's another site, confirms that the previous were region free. However ME3 is marked as unknown at the minute, perhaps someone at bioware could confirm.

Yes I will need confirmation before I advise her on this, while I am happy to take risks and gamble on it if was my own money I won't do same with her. Telling her of something which she then goes and spends her very hard earned money on, gets hopes up only to have them smashed if turns out ME3 is region locked for the 360 version is not something willing to gamble on.

If turns out not to be region locked confirmed by developer then I will let her know about it but not before then, though I do thank you for mentioning it so can seek a developer answer about it now. Can any devs answer this please.

OK, getting a bit paranoid now, still haven't put down an order for the CE yet .... GameStop (In Ireland, not sure if it's the same in the UK?) have exclusivity when it comes to the N7 items so I'll head into tomorrow and do it.

They better have it ... :o

Don't remember seeing any GameStops anywhere on the mainland though granted I haven't been to the biggest cities London/Edinburgh/Manchester sort of place etc to look. Game and Gamestations, seen many but GameStops seen none personally.

Can we get a developer to answer what the regional lock status of CE's (Xbox360) are for ME3 and if it is possible to transfer the N7 Warfare Pack (code?) from a digital or retail (PC) version to a friend with 360 copy of the game who has a different account?

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know why EA Games doesn't simply print enough copies to meet the demand?

The CE hardcopy contains a lot of material that would be rather expensive to Mass-Effect produce, such as the tin itself, artbook, lithograph, and N7 patch. Limited means limited.
