Anyone ever buy a game from Barnes and Noble.com
So I had a $25 GC to Barnes and Noble and I noticed that on their website (though not in store) they have games in a partnership with Gamestop.com . I ordered Perfect Dark Zero the day I got my 360 (1/3/06) and was able to use my giftcard and it supposedely shipped out the same day. I chose standard shipping which they say could take 5-10 business days. Here it is the 14th and the game hasn't come yet. I've sent an email to Gamestop (the Barnes and Noble web site says to do so) and have not recieved a response. I can't imagine why it would be taking this long if it really did ship on 1/3. Even media mail isn't this slow! So any ideas what I can do? If the game isn't here by Monday I may dispute the charge on my Credit Card but then I'm out my Gift Card. At the same time I don't want to be waiting forever for something that might not show. Anyone ever used BN.com for a game purchase? Did it take a long time to get it?
Mods-can I get my typo in the subject line corrected? thanks

gamestop.com has awful customer service. I have been trying for 2 weeks to contact them about the missing warranty from my 360 bundle and have received no response.

No mail today since it's MLK day but if it doesn't come tomorrow I think I'm going to try calling them to see WTF is up. Had I have known the shipping would've taken this long I probably would have used the giftcard on something else in the brick and mortar store instead. Though my brother let me borrow his PDZ for like two weeks so atleast I've had a chance to play it enough for a while.
