    I don't think you missed much. I ordered my copy on 6/11, & all confirmed, but today I got this e-mail :mad:

    RE: Sonic Heroes

    Unfortunately when your order was about to be dispatched we found that the item was damaged and not suitable to send. I have raised a credit for the charge made for this item which will be refunded to your account within 7 working days. I am very sorry to inform you that this product is now unavailable, I have therefore cancelled your order. Please accept our sincere apologies for this unforeseen problem in dispatching your order.

    I haven't had any cancellation order yet.
    I guess it's just a matter of time?

    Although I ordered the Nemo and Sonic at the same time, so maybe they are taking longer with these as the order is for two items?

    Have checked my status online and it says "on order" for sonic
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.

    Please do not buy animals from a pet store. Visit your local sanctuary or centre and give a good home to an unloved or abandoned animal.
  • Got a cancellation as well..

    I told them that all they are doing is showing their incompetence and further encouraging people to use their more reliable competitors.
  • got my email too. never mind u win some...

    Just got my email also and more or less told them the same as you.

    Would have been nice to get it at that price.
    Its better to be late in this life than early in the next one.

    Slow down speed kills.
  • Me too. Cancellation received by email. I wonder how we would stand if we could find the game in the store we are supposed to collect from.

    Its funny how they have the same product here: http://www.whsmith.co.uk/WHS/Go.asp?isbn=63658&DB=621&Menu=Games

    In stock, ok it’s a platinum version, but still the same game.
