Mentioned this in another thread, but going to re-post it here.

Just to clarify for everyone that ordered from Play.com:

- The Dispatch email will not contain a tracking number, even if it was dispatched today and sent via Courier.
- If your order was sent today (or yesterday, I believe) it should have been dispatched via DPD, even if there was only the option for 3-5 working days (free) delivery when ordering.

To check if it was sent via Courier:

- You have to login to your Play account and go to Order History to see if you have a tracking number.

When you view your Order History, if it has been dispatched via DPD you will see something similar to this:

Dispatched : 08 March 2012
Tracking number: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Delivery option: Free Delivery
Delivery estimate: 3-5 working days

If there is no Tracking number line, then it was dispatched via Royal Mail.

Click the Tracking number and it will take you to the DPD tracking page.

Note: Your DPD tracking number will not be active yet, should work just fine later/tomorrow though. People that already have their tracking number working have mentioned it is next day delivery via DPD, so someone will need to be in to sign for it. You can safely ignore the delivery estimate, that is for when dispatched via Royal Mail.


Very helpful, thank you.

Been trying to find a place to order the Collector's Edition for PC for 2 days now... Having no luck at all... I pre-ordered this with GAME months ago. I so so sooooo disappoint.

Well, this was my first time pre-ordering a game, and I'm not very impressed. The game's been in stores in Finland since today morning, and I'm still waiting on my me3. Would have gotten it faster had I not pre-ordered.

Got a message from verkkokauppa.com (the place where I bought it from) on monday saying that it's in the post, so I was expecting to get it yesterday, today at the very latest. Called them today, and apparently they jumped the gun a bit with that text message - all the preorders were posted on tuesday, not monday, and while they aimed to get it to everyone on the 8th, I am apparently among the unlucky souls that have to wait another day. <_<

If I don't have it by 4 p.m. tomorrow, I'll go to another store and buy it off the shelf, and return my pre-order for a refund.

My play.com order has also recently acquired a tracking number (inactive at the moment), but the dispatch date has moved from the 6th to the 8th. Bah.

Postman came (along with 2 couriers), after sorting through 8 parcels none of them were for me. Not worried really, I'm working today and tomorrow but have all of Saturday off. My wife is taking the kids out and I'll be able to properly immerse myself in the ME3 universe. As long as I get it tomorrow, that is! Come on DPD...

Congratulations to everyone who has received their copy thus far!

Damn! They won't deliver to my frakkin' address!! And you can't reserve it in store... Hmm, I may have to go on long quest to get to the Argos store and hope they still have some when I get there.

Do you have any friends in a different location whose shipping address you could use? You wouldn't get it on release, but you would get it.

No problem.

DPD? Yes, they offer Saturday delivery, but only if the sender pays extra for it (it's more expensive than next day).

You should get an email from DPD at some point this evening confirming the parcel's arival date, then the morning of delivery you should get another email containing their estimated "1 hour delivery slot", in my experience these estimated slots are very accurate.

If it arrives on Friday and you're not in, they should leave a delivery card. In which case you should be able to "Upgrade your delivery" by following the instructions on the website, in which case I beleive you should be able to get Saturday delivery though you'll be charged extra.

It states on their website ME3 is an online exclusive. Pretty sure that means they're not selling it in store.

Well my order from Gamestop has shipped at last, by recorded signed for. With any luck it will turn up tomorrow. I'm still a bit annoyed that I could have got it £10 cheaper if I'd placed the order today rather than last week, though.

Ahhh! I wish I'd seen that sooner, I already went ahead and pre-ordered the DDE on Origin after GAME let me down. Seems like a complete waste of money without anything physical to show for it, but I figured it was so late there'd be no stock left.

Think i'll load up my ME2 saves and reset their skill points so i can distribute them freely at the start of ME3.

Whilei think of it while waiting for delivery tomorrow, i think i'll google for any info on import bonuses like para/rep and credit bonus from importing ala ME2.

Nope... Tried my friends addresses and they refuse to deliver there too... That's what I get for living in the ass-end of nowhere in Scotland.

I'm tempted to head down to the Argos Store but would they actually be selling it today? Or would they officially start selling tomorrow?  It's telling me online it's in stock, tried the Customer Service number but the catalog number they ask for is seven digits long... But the ME: CE is only six! Argh!
