Try contacting them through the online chat feature to see if they could add the additional titles so you could qualify for the free shipping discount.

It might be a longshot but it's worth a try. I've found their chat line folks to be very helpful and friendly. Have your order number ready so that they can look it up.

Good luck!

I'm actually going to try that, and since I've found another $50 worth of titles I'd like to have, they might be willing to accomodate me. :)

Yay--they were able to cancel my order. Time to place a new, bigger order including stuff for family and friends--so I guess we both win :)

That's great news! :)

Get your order submitted quickly in the event they start selling out of titles.

How do you get free shipping? I tried to place an order over $50 and it was still charging me.

From the related thread at FW, try using coupon code 'FREE9090'

kyle 06-06-08 03:36 PM

It automatically applied that FREE9090 for me at checkout--I used Visa as the payment option. If you look at the checkout summary screen, you see where it charges you the shipping and then removes it due to that coupon. There is still a $1.75 insurance charge that you can also remove if you want it to be totally free. At the top left of the page that shows all these charges, there is a link to edit the shipping options--where you can choose another method and/or remove the insurance option.
