argh, this thread makes me cry !
I pre-ordered from Amazon 6 weeks ago, then they cancelled collectors ed, so i ordered from play.com, then amazon said cancellation as a mistake, but i didnt worry cos play.com was ordered, then when it didnt come yesterday or today, i called play.com to be told they hadn;t received any. I inquired as to whether it might have been expedient to inform customers of this, and was informed that 'we can't hunt down every supplier'. :/
So i am off to store to buy a copy now, wish me luck!
