Just got off the phone with someone from Bol.

They don't have any copies of the PC CE as of right now and they don't know whether they'll be getting any. It's not known whether they can still deliver them.


Oh crikey. I'll move Bol.com into 'unconfirmed' then.

Please excuse me for a bit.

Potverdriedrubbeltjes.... That sucks. Also sucks that they don't send an e-mail or anything to inform us about this :\\

Updated my retailer list.

This whole situation is starting to get really annoying. EA's conduct is completely unacceptable.

I sent another e-mail to Bol.com, pointing them towards this thread and stating that there are many rumours regarding delivery problems of the CE. I just got one of those automated e-mails back (which I didn't get yesterday, so maybe this is a good sign?) so I hope to have an answer relatively soon.

I'll keep you guys posted.

Did you notice the OMFG It's here already!!!! (Europe) thread where a dutch guy seems to have gotten the CE from Bol.com yesterday?

Yeah, that was the PS3 version.

I just got off the phone too with bol.com. They didn't have the PC and Xbox CE's (yet), but the lady insisted they WILL get them and that they WILL deliver these CE's. It was unclear when they'd get them, tomorrow or maybe Friday (or maybe even later?). They didn't have them in stock right now, so I don't think we can expect them in the mail tomorrow.

I also pre-ordered the CE at bol.com, like I've always done with pre-orders. Bol.com usally handels them pretty well (they don't over order, they deliver on day of release etc..), but It's pretty worrying if they don't even have them in their warehouses right now o_0 I really hope they'll get them in supply by the end of the day. If I get an email confirming they've send my copy,and noone else before me confirmed so, I'll let you know.

Isn't the game on the right in the first picture the pc CE edition?
I could be wrong.

I'll post my correspondence with Bol.com here. It is still ongoing, so expect updates later on (that is, IF they get back to me).


Hallo,

Er gaan behoorlijk wat geruchten dat er leveringsproblemen
zijn met de PC-versie van de Mass Effect 3 Collectors' Edition. Er
wordt gezegd dat deze niet (voldoende) aangeleverd zijn en dat niet aan
alle reserveringen kan worden voldaan. Kunt u deze geruchten weerleggen?

(Bron:
op het officiële forum van Bioware wordt een lijst bijgehouden met
Nederlandse retailers en hoe hun leveringsverwachtingen zijn:
http://social.biowar...61845/3#9665612 )

In mijn persoonlijke geval zou ik graag willen weten of bestelling met nummer XXXXXXXXXXXXX nog gewoon doorgaat.

Ik
hoop dat u snel duidelijkheid kunt scheppen, zodat ik eventueel nog op
tijd kan beslissen om de Collectors' Edition ergens anders te halen,
waar ik een wellicht meer kans maak.


Met vriendelijke groet,


XXXXXXXX




Geachte heer XXXXX,

Hartelijk dank voor uw e-mail van 7 maart 2012.
U vraagt of het spel 'Mass Effect 3
Collectors' Edition' alsnog op vesrchijningsdatum wordt geleverd,
aangezien er voorraadproblemen zijn.
Wij hebben nog geen problemen over de
voorraad van dit spel ondernomen. Het verschil in leveranciers kan
hiervan de reden zijn. Wij gaan er vanuit dat u dit spel alsnog op de
verschijningsdatum ontvangt. Als u op 8 maart 2012 niks heeft ontvangen,
verzoeken wij u vriendelijk nogmaals contact op te nemen met ons.

Wij hopen u hiermee voldoende te hebben geïnformeerd.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Vera
 
bol.com Klantenservice

Foei Vera, daar zie ik wat spelfoutjes! 'vesrchijningsdatum'? 'Wij hebben nog geen problemen "ondernomen"'?

But oh well, at least SOME info. I didn't think it was quite enough, so I sent this back:

Hallo Vera,

Bedankt voor de informatie. Ik ben echter nog steeds
wel enigszins bezorgd. Ik heb namelijk ook van iemand gehoord dat hij de
klantenservice van Bol.com heeft gebeld en daar te horen heeft gekregen
dat de PC-versie van de Mass Effect 3 Collectors' Edition niet was
binnengekomen. Tenzij jullie binnen Bol.com met verschillende
leveranciers werken, vind ik dit een nogal zorgwekkend relaas. Hier is
een citaat:

"Just got off the phone with someone from Bol.

They don't have any
copies of the PC CE as of right now and they don't know whether they'll
be getting any. It's not known whether they can still deliver them."


U
begrijpt dat dit nogal wat gemixte signalen zijn! Ik hoop natuurlijk
ten volste dat u gelijk heeft en dat het spel gewoon op 8 maart wordt
afgeleverd. Bij mijn bestelstatus staat echter nog steeds dat de
bestelling 'verwerkt' wordt, en we zitten al redelijk dicht tegen de
achtste aan. Des te zorgwekkender dat sommige mensen wel al hun Bol.com
bestelling binnen hebben gekregen (niet de PC-versie); waarom zijn die
artikelen wel reeds verstuurd maar de PC-versies nog niet?

Alvast bedankt voor uw antwoord!


Met vriendelijke groet,


XXXXXXXXXXXX





Now I'm waiting for a reply back. As always, I'll keep you guys posted.

balgium or the netherlands?
I think I'm going to pay them a visit today :)


The Netherlands, sorry. I did pre-order (actually, my boyfriend did) but that wasn't too long ago. Our original order was with GameMania but they didn't mail a confirmation and send the money back.. that was in December I guess.

Anyhow, both CE copies got delivered about an hour ago.

Thanks for the answer, but I'm going to check here anyway, had the same problem with gamemania, and you may never know, perhaps I can get it today :)


Good luck, you might get lucky.

I did read somewhere, that even if you have your copy, you still can't play it untill the 9th in Europe.. Not sure if that's true though, it's almost done installing here.



I went to the store and they showed me my copy but told me they couldn't give it to me until tomorrow, I'm just glad I'm certain now that I'll get one, even though I did order it a bit late :)

That's the most extreme cruelty imaginable! Show someone his/her copy of ME3 CE and then refuse to sell it! :P

Gamehappen instead of koekhappen? :P

I pre-ordered both PC and Xbox CE with bol.com and have decided to cancel the PC version and get it through Origin. I ordered both so my boyfriend and I could play at the same time, but since I'll be playing PC first, the PC version has my priority of course :P. Hopefully for him, the Xbox version will arrive tomorrow or Friday.

Just ordered at Free Record Shop online status: Helaas niet leverbaar (Sadly not available)
Still sites working? Is Amazon.fr working?

Gamehappen would be an awesome game, and I will definitely push for its inclusion in the very next party I will attend. Of course I will credit you for the idea. ;)

Good luck with your game then! I'll stick with Bol.com for now, but I'm starting to be more inclined towards Origin as well. I'll root for your boyfriend's order to be on time as well! :P

From what I can see it works and they should have it in stock (my French is terribad though so don't take my word for it). I think it would be wise though to consider the possibility that the game might be entirely in French, with no option to switch to English. The French are chauvinistic enough to do something like that :P

After a look in the forum I see that the French version also supports English...If it's correct.

Amazon seems not to ship the CE in Germany yet and there are rumors, they don´t have enough copies. We feel with you my european brothers...

 I went to my GameMania today and he looked into the box and said "Yep, your copy is right here. You can come get it tomorrow."
The Agony! :pinched:

So I went to the MediaMarkt and asked if they were selling ME3 yet and the guy glanced over to a boxed up pallet and said "Yep, on sale tomorrow." To which I asked if there were CE editions amongst those and he said that they didn't recieve any CE, just !300! regulars (I'm guessing 100 Xbox/PS/PC)

Thanks for your investigation thus far, Von Lipwig. Reading all this, I too am starting to incline more and more towards an Origin copy now. Their customer service has been really finicky as usual, even though their deliveries in the past were generally fine. It's something with PC versions that has a tendency to mess up a lot.

Anyone know when we'll be able to actually play the PC versions? Besides shipping and availability, the exact date of release seems fuzzy.

Someone from the Bol.com customer service just called me to clarify the situation. He stated that if there are any issues regarding the supply of any item, the customer service is the first to be notified, and they would communicate it to the customers ASAP. So far, though, they have received absolutely no news that they will not be able to fulfill the ME3 CE pre-orders on any platform, meaning that we should all receive our pre-orders on release.


He did state that he had heard some rumours himself, mostly because they have been getting quite a few calls and e-mails from people about this very issue, but he had received no official word so everything should be fine.


And we all know that Bol.com can deliver items on very short notice. I mean, just look at the 'voor 9 uur besteld? morgen in huis!' sign on most articles! They should be able to deliver even if they get it in late today.



Most of my worries have been alleviated, but that small nagging feeling of doubt will only dissipate when I finally hold that CE in my hands! :P He did state that if they would not receive enough supply to fulfill all pre-orders, they would likely be able to deliver later, or offer an alternative option.

Ik heb de CE maar via Origins gekocht, ik weet vrijwel zeker dat weinig winkels het hebben.

Just bought the CE trough Origins, pretty sure not many shops have it.
