Pre-Order games and the GCU

There seems to be 2 options.
Go to a store, print out the ticket, go to the register and pay $5 to hold your copy, or put money down.  Come back and relay on the system to give you the 20% discount.
Order online, get the discount right away, pay in full and have it shipped to you.
Is there an option I am missing somewhere such that I can pre-order online, pay in fulll and then pick it up in store on release day?
I pre-ordered Witcher 3 online, paid in full, and the only option was to get it shipped.  

Hi there bobberuchi-
I’m glad to hear that you joined us on the pre-order train for The Witcher 3!  All aboard the hunt train, choo choo!
It sounds like the store you initially choose had already reached their limit for in-store pre-orders which can happen with some titles, I’m glad to hear that you found a store near your office that still had availability.
I hope you enjoy the game; everything I’ve heard so far is that it’s amazing!

  • Why the long wait between the pre-order date and the shipping date of the Motorola Razr??????????

    I don't understand Why Verizon made the shipping date for the Motorola razr two full weeks after the pre-order date? Versus what it did with the iphone 4s where the dates were only 1 week a part. I order it on the 27th.

    I know I really can't wait to get the phone.  I was hoping it might come a little earlier than the 10th but probably not. 

  • Checked my Pre Order status and the expected date is no longer there.....what does this mean?

    the expected date as disappeared

        AngelDRamirez,
    I don't want you to feel alarmed by this change. I can review the status of your order. I have sent you a direct message. Please reply to my direct message so I can assist.

  • South Park Pre-Order and the GCU 20% off

    I was searching, but none of the topics came up with this.  I know if we pre-ordered it before it was lost we get the $20, will we get the GCU 20% on new games when we pick it up?

    Hi VetRaptor,
    Thank you for the question, and thank you for being a My Best Buy Gamers Club Unlocked member.  I can provide the answer to your question.  
    When we announced the Gamers Club Unlocked enhancements, including the 20% discount on new games, we provided an FAQ here on our forum.  One of the questions was regarding existing pre-orders.  Find the whole article here, but please see below for the answer to your question.
    Q: If I have already pre-ordered games, will the 20% off be applied to those orders?
    A: This will depend on whether you placed these pre-orders in-store or through BestBuy.com
    In-Store:
    If you pre-ordered in-store, you will receive the 20% off benefit as long as you are an active Gamers Club Unlocked member when you pick up your pre-order. You will need to ensure your My Best Buy account is added to the purchase when the game is picked up.
    BestBuy.com:
    If you pre-ordered on BestBuy.com for either Store Pickup or shipping, we are not able to add this benefit to your existing order. You will need to either cancel and re-do your pre-order or return and repurchase the game once it is fulfilled to get the 20% off. To receive this benefit going forward, you will need to ensure that you are signed in to your BestBuy.com account when you place an order and have your My Best Buy account linked to your BestBuy.com account.
    Thanks!

  • Pre-order purchased but not downloaded; no pre-order email and purchases not on cloud. Help?

    I purchased a pre-order for an album back in September, with a release date of Oct. 29. On Oct. 29, the album was displayed as "purchased" on the iTunes Store yet it did not download. I did not receive a pre-order email and the purchase was not on the cloud.

    I have the same problem :(
    Really wish someone would help

  • Pre-order points missing and pre-ordering problems at the store level.

    Hi
    During the week of July 6th-July 12 there was an ad for pre-ordering certain movies and getting 100 bonus points for each movie.  On July 12th I pre ordered Rio 2, The Amazing Spiderman 2, and Transformers:AOE (Steelbook edition).  The employee was able to successfully pre-order Rio 2 using the provided in store pre order card but had difficultly pre ordering Spiderman 2 and Transformers.  Rio 2 and Spiderman 2 had set release dates while at that time Transformers did NOT have a release date until recently.  These pre-orders were done in three different transactions. 
    Picking up Rio 2 on 7/15 was not a problem.  The employee did an exchange in the system.  The 100 bonus points never posted.
    The Amazing Spiderman 2 had a lot of problems.  The employee thought I already bought it and picked it up on 7/12 when I went to pick it up on 8/19 (the release date).  At the time of the pre order purchase, there was no announcement of the BB exclusive Magno pack for the same price as the regular blu ray release.  Again the employee did a return/rebuy.  This employee also stated that the employee who processed the pre-orders Spiderman and Transformers did it incorrectly since it looks like she did it as a normal transaction instead of a pre-order.  The points have yet to be posted.
    Transformers: AOE (Steelbook edition) now has an official release date of 9/30.  My question is will the system allow for employee to process the pre-order pick up since it is outside of the 45 day window?  I am hoping it won't be but seeing how the employees have been processing pre-orders incorrectly when picking them up I expect problems when doing so. 
    I have also noticed a price drop for transformers (6760435) from the time I pre-ordered it on 7/12.  Will the employees be able to adjust the price and give me the difference?
    Not all stores carry the pre-order cards making this a difficult process for everyone (it takes me on average 30 minutes to pick up 1 pre-order instead of in and out within 5 mins like usual) because someone didn't do it correctly the first time.  So my question is, how should employees process a pre-order if there is NO Pre-Order card in store??  I would love to continue to pre-order at best buy, but am getting tired of having employees screw up my pre-order.

     Hello ITDEFX101,
    Pre-ordering your movies during these 100 My Best Buy™ Bonus Point promotions is a great way to ensure that you are able to get your hands on some great movies as soon as possible after release, while simultaneously earning extra points. It is regrettable to hear that your pre-order experience with Rio 2 and The Amazing Spiderman 2 were not as smooth as we strive for these processes to be, and in the end, you state you didn’t even get the bonus points you expected.
    Using the information you registered with the forum, I was able to review your pre-orders for all three movies, as well as your My Best Buy™ account. Sadly, it does appear that there may have been some issues with your pre-orders, and I would like to address these with you privately, especially concerning your pre-order for Transformers: Age of Extinction. I am sending you a private message, which you may view once you’ve signed into the forum and clicked the envelope icon in the top right corner of the page.
    Sincerely,

  • I just downloaded a pre-ordered album and one song is corrupted and stopping just after a minute in. Can I redownload the song for free?

    I just downloaded a pre-ordered album and one song is corrupted and stopping just after a minute in. Can I redownload the song for free?

    If you delete the song from your PC you can redownload it.  Make sure you actually remove it from the computer, and not just from the library (select "Move to Recycle Bin" when deleting).  To redownload you can go to the itunes Store->Purchased-> Download Previous Purchases.  Within there you have the option to view all songs purchased, as well as all songs which are "Not In My Libraray".
    If you don't feel comfortable deleting the song, you can just move copy/paste it somewhere else so that you've got it backed up in case the re-download doesn't work.

  • How to recover hp pre-installed games and office after system restore for HP Mini 210-4127se?

    how to recover hp pre-installed games and office after system restore for HP Mini 210-4127se?

    Hi,
    You can reinstall them from Recovery Manager by clicking on Start=> All Programs.
    If you have performed a complete HP Recovery using F11 then all the software should be there. If you have performed a minimized recovery then you can install applications from recovery manager...If none of these works then you'll need USB recovery..
    Here are the links that will guide you through the process:
    Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7)
    Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
    Order USB Recovery
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
    Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.
    **Click on “Kudos” Star if you think this reply helped** Or Mark it as "Solved" if issue got fixed.

  • Pre-order 4s and Deposit is Required @ Apple Store

    Hi,
    I am a first time AT&T customer and tried to pre-order iPhone 4s last night. I put my information (address, ssn, etc), and it said "Pick up a new iPhone at an Apple Retail Store" and "$150 deposit is required before the purchases."
    I have not gave my credit card info yet, and I have not got any resevation number.
    Does this mean I could not pre-order iPhone, and I need to line up in the morning 10/14 to get it? Or, will they keep my iPhone at the store?
    Thank you for your advice in advance.

    I found that this means the phone is not reserved.  I called AT&T and finally reserved it!

  • 10$ certificat​e for pre orders on MLB The Show 15?

    I was told by the clerk to pre order online and get a 10$ certificate for MLB The Show 2015 for PS4 but I do not see this onine anywhere stating 10$ certificate

    Hey MutantMike,
    Thanks for writing in.  MLB 15 looks good so I can understand your interest.
    At this time it is not a part of our "Get $10" promotion, nor am I aware of any online-exclusive offer for a $10 value.  However, as a Gamers Club Unlocked member I still think you've got a great release-day price through Best Buy or BestBuy.com!
    Pre-order your copy here!

  • Collect a pre-ordered watch from the apple store?

    Hi all,
    Do you think you can collect a pre-ordered watch from the your nearest apple store? They may have the one you want in stock possibly?

    No. They do not have them in stock available for sale now at all and will not have any until at least June.

  • I pre-ordered PS4 and Killzone game, can I upgrade to the bundle when I pick up?

    Hello,
    I pre-ordered a PS4 console and the game, Killzone: Shadow Fall separately.  When I go to pick up my PS4, can I upgrade to this bundle when I pick it up?  PS4 Killzone Bundle
    Looking at the SKUs for the items included in the bundle, it looks like it is just the individual items that you are selling as a bundle with a $10 discount.
    Thanks

    Hello mkivsuptt-
    I am sure that you are hugely excited for your PlayStation 4 now that Sony has announced their release date of November 15th!
    It’s possible that you might be able to change out your pre-order for the bundle at the time of release, but there really is no way we can guarantee that those bundles will be available.  If you are really interested in that bundle, I would recommend pre-ordering one now, while they are still available.
    Thanks!

  • Pre-Order Price Adjusted without GCU discount

    I had pre-ordered a 3DS game awhile back and the original price had been $39.99.  With the Gamer's Club Unlocked discount, my discounted price was $31.99.  The price of the game eventually lowered to $29.99.  Once my order ({Removed per Forum Guidelines}) shipped, my price was adjusted from $31.99 to $29.99.  Shouldn't it be adjusting to $23.99 to account for the GCU discount?

    Hi again brandonjf72,
    Like enuf mentioned, your Gamers' Club Unlocked discount should have automatically applied to your order, even after the lower launch week pricing had been taken into consideration. No need to worry though! I've had the chance to review your order and it looks like the missing difference was credited earlier today. If you haven't already done so, I'd encourage you to check both your inbox and junk mail folders for a message confirming this adjustment. Please also keep in mind that the funds may not post to the paying card right away -- the exact timeframe required varies by financial institution.
    Thanks for being a Gamers' Club Unlocked member, as well as for ordering with us!

  • Can i use bestbuy 10.00 rewards towards pre order games?

    i know at the store i cant use it towards pre order til i go pick it up and use it there but can i use the 10.00 right way for pre ordering and ship it to the house?

    Hello Tony2k,
    We're always happy to have you pre-ordering your games at Best Buy!  Thanks for being a My Best Buy member.  I can answer your question for you today.
    As you mentioned, pre-orders can't be placed with My Best Buy certificates in-store.  However, if you would like to place an order on BestBuy.com for in-store pickup, then you can submit the certificate as payment ahead of the game's release.
    Certificates traditionally have a 60 day expiration period so it is important that you check that when you receive your email notification of a certificate being issued so you don't let them go unspent.
    Thank you for writing in.  Please let me know if you have additional questions.
    Regards,
