Gaming pre-orders... a few Questions

I Am planning on starting up my pre-orders again.... for EVERY release.

Anyway, my prices wouldn't be more than retail SHIPPED 1st class.
IE if a game is $49.99.... that would be my price shipped.

I know there is an instant gratification effect with buying from a brick and mortor store, besides that and money constraints.... what would keep you from buying online?

IF I started up pre-orders, would you all be interested? (please state why... and do not be afraid, I will not bite your head off if no, and I will not bug you if yes :lol)

See normally I wouldn't have a problem with pre-ordering online, But I just wish it would arrive at my house on the release date. But I know that's not possible.
 
I wouldn't mind doing pre-orders. To me there's little difference between brick-and-mortars versus online when it comes to hobbies. I am definately interested with DS titles when I finaly get my DS.

yeah... that is not possible... which sucks.  I used to get games early... but they don't do that anymore.

Even ordering Direct... AT BEST I get games on the day of launch to ship out.

I am working to see if I can change this.... but I doubt it FOR the time being... :-\  
Maybe in a year.

But my games would arrive within 2-3 days.... unless unfortunate crap happens (like what happeend to Bman)... and the game get s held up in mail.  It took 10 days.  98-99% of my packages arrive in 2-3 days.  80% of domestic packages arrive within 2 days.

yeah.. I personallly can get ANYTHING DS and PSP (even movies... although those come in waves... available sometimes and not others).

I am working to get Xbox 360 pre-orders as well.

heck, for some releases.... I might make deals for you all.. IE if over 10 are ordered (collectively) between you all (members of the store / forums) I might give $2-3... discount per game.

Man, BV I wish you had a lot more business. When EBgames comes to my house to get pre-order money, that will be a sign of the apocalypse :lol

But really, I think the collective discount thing is a good idea...with prices going up the way they are I'll sadly have to buy a lot less games...
 
Maybe if I didn't work at GameStop... :lol

It's just more convenient for me to pre-order them at work, since I'm there all the time and it's like 5 minutes from my house. I usually pick up my pre-order games the day they come in.

I still have a bunch of credit with you, though. I haven't decided what to do with it yet.
 
Are you going to get Tony Hawks American Wasteland ? If so how much would you have it for. I really want to get that game.
 
Bv, how much are you willing to sell a PSP?

Edit: I know this isn't concerning the pre-orders but I just was wondering.
