The Horror Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Hey, just curious, did anyone else order the codex edition from play.com and not receive it yet? It was despatched on Tuesday and I still don't have it. Starting to get really fucked off now as I've had a lot of mail go missing recently. If I don't get it today, someone is going to get fucking assassinated for real. Play.com seem to be going right down the shitter, I've had so many problems with them of late.

DarthTrist Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Mine arrived this morning and was also posted on tuesday, I hoped it would arrive yesterday though. If it helps it wasn't via normal mail, it was parcel delivery. They have been going downhill recently, last new game I ordered from them didn't get posted till the day before release and arrived 5 days later. I ordered a game in one of their sales and it arrived in 2 days so I have no idea wtf is up with them lately. Hope yours arrives soon, the chest is awesome and is going to be displayed next to my Ezio statue from ACII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Horror Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 Thanks for the quick reply. Really hope I get it today, I ordered it back in June and have been looking forward to it since then. So if I don't get it today on the fucking release like I should do, it's gona be a real kick in the teeth. Becoming increasingly wary of buying online now as they don't seem to give a shit about the customer anymore. Anyway thanks for the reply, it's given me some hope that I may still get it.

The Horror Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 Panic over, just got it. It's got some damage though, gona call Play now and see if I can get some money back, pretty fucking doubtful though. Chest looks awesome though, was a bit worried when I didn't see the game, but then noticed the ribbon for the hidden compartment. Time to go make some people bleed.

DarthTrist Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Cool, good news all round then I liked the game being in the false bottom of the chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Haven't received mine yet. Waiting with baited breath. And I hear you about Play going downhill too. It took them 3 weeks to give me my DJ Hero Renegade Edition when I pre ordered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevilinho Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 dont know about anyone else but mine came from a normal unmarked white van but had to sign for it had to fire an email to play.com though as the lid of the codex is shocing, the felt inside the lid isnt finished, the logo is extremely faint, the felt doesnt stick to the lid because theres nothing there to keep it in place it seems rushed, im extremly disapointed because i paid £70 for something that is broken and is 'limited' collectors edition, i will be disapointed if i dont get another oneor at very least a new lid so im going to hold off opening the game incase pla are dicks and want it returned or something, first dispaointment from play in 4 years of service EDIT!!!! - RECIEVED EMAIL FROM PLAY.COM AND I have to send it all back so they can get it all sorted out, been waiting for this game for months hell had this edition ordered since july so im very upset over this grrrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaniel Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Mine arrived yesterday and was posted on Tuesday, there was also some damage to the outer box. That's what they get for using a bag to post it in with no protection. At least the box is okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie86 Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I ordered mine from play (only because this TERRIBLE company somehow got the exclusive for the codex edition) I'm still waiting for mine to arrive and it shipped on tuesday, this is the first and last time I ever use play.

Quickdraw Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 got mine around 2hrs and 30 ago, it was poorly wrapped. outside package was dented all over im very disappointed but im too desperate to play so it will have to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyrlin Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 If I remember correctly the last exclusive I ordered from play (black edition AC2) arrived the day after release. I should have known better than to order something like this from them again, it's still not arrived and it's now 3pm. Perhaps we should all email Ubi and express our concern at choosing a company for an exclusive item that doesn't care about making sure it arrives early or even on the day of release. Had it been a Game exclusive we would all have had it on Thursday and it would have been packed properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemon300 Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Mine arrived today. There was some damage done to the outer box, but also the top of the chest lid was coming off. The only bad thing really. I'll email Play.com asking for a 5 -10% refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pumpkinstew Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Mine arrived about 20 minutes ago by Citipost, glad its here but it was packaged terribly, it was in a silver plastic postage bag with a single thin, loose sheet of bubble wrap to protect it which was loose in the bag and not even wrapped around the box when I opened it. I'm going to email play.com as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grey Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Well it's currently 4 o clock, and it just seems too late for it to come now. Play have gotten so sloppy over the years. Used to rely on them but that's going to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grey Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I wish I was as optimistic as you haha. I've been so excited for this these past few weeks, but now the excitements fading because of the sloppy service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyrlin Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Mine just arrived at 16:49. Was loosely wrapped in a single sheet of bubble wrap inside a standard grey courier bag (Large). Typical luck, the only damage to mine is a little crumpling of the cardboard sleeve on the top 4 corners, everything else is intact and pristine. Oh well at least I have it now and can play it.
