I purchased the GBA on 3/7/02 and they charged my card the next day. The site also said that it shipped on 3/8/02 and yesterday 3/13/02 I received it.

They don't seem to give you any warning that the item is coming your way, except for the little blurb about the ship date. But there was no e-mail saying that the item had shipped, nor was there any tracking # to see that it was coming.

I got an email when I first placed the order so I looked at that. It had a link to track the order and all it says there is that my order was accepted on 3/8.

Mine just got here. Great deal. Off to get some games.

Okay... I'm getting excited... but our mail doesn't get delivered until 4:30-5:00 PM (central time)... :(

But I've got games waiting... ;)

Shipped 030702, still waiting in Indy for my package to come. :grunt:

But ditto on the games-in-waiting ;)

Cool another Indy DVDTalker ... any great game or DVD stores you recommend here other than the big chains?

Goldberg74 03-14-02 03:59 PM

Nope, sorry but I'm not aware of any good ones. I'm probably not the best one to ask, as I've lived here only 2 yrs. I buy a lot of my stuff online (but buy.com and CDNow both charge 5% tax now in IN :( )

GBA came today
 
Purchased Arctic GBA on 3/8, recieved today. Thanks to original poster for this deal!

Got my glacier one today! Now I need to find some cheap accessories so my son doesn't steal all mine.

Received mine today. Successfully traded the Fuchsia for Indigo at Wal-Mart. Neither were the colors I wanted(Glacier) but that's all Wal-Mart in my area had(better than pink) and I couldn't convince myself to go try another store for something that is not that big of a deal in the first place. And I couldn't wait to play Super Mario World and F-Zero, which both are very nice games.

Decker 03-15-02 10:11 PM

Got mine today. Ugly-ass fuscia. I thought about swaping it out at my local Wal-Mart, but decided I've gone to that well too often already. No point in raising a red (or fuscia) flag over something as inconcequential as color. Besides, as Ross Gellar would say, it's not pink, it's LIGHT SALMON.

Really enjoying the new Crash game. Wow, they really did a nice job squeezing the power available out of this system for the game. Will try THPS3 tomorrow....

I ordered a pink one on the 7th, and still have nothing...

Same here... but I called them and they told me its in the mail and could take up to 3 weeks to get to me... darn media mail! (oh and I ordered games on the 8th and they shipped the 12th...)

Received mine today. The packing box was crushed, but luckily the Gameboy Advance box was fine.

Goldberg74 03-18-02 06:31 PM

IT CAME!!!!!!!
Now off to Wally World to excahnge it for a decent color...

Update: Went to Wal*Mart and got an Indigo (no flames please... it was either that or Glacier... I wanted Arctic)... I also traded in GT Racing (rang up as $40, I paid $16.50) and got Super Mario Advanced 1 ($30) and a Light-cover ($8)... all is well here!

Shuki 03-19-02 01:38 AM

mine came too along with my two zelda games and one other one (racing I think) that I will exchange for something else. Thanks for the original post :D :D :D
