Just called again :lol:

My coversation: (by the way the dudes name was Chris)

Chris: Hello my name is Chris how may I help?

Moi: Yeah, I'm just checking that the Nintendo Wii I pre-ordered would be delivered on the Launch date.

Chris: Could you please hold for a moment?

Moi: Yep

#Jaunty music

Chris: Hello?

Moi: Yeah

Chris: Have you heard anything back from us?

Moi: No

Chris: Then you should recieve the console on Friday morning as there have been no problems.

Moi: But I was told it wouldn't be delivered then.

Chris: It definately will be delivered to all Pre-Orders on the 8th of December.

Moi: Should I not have recieved a call to arrange delivery?

Chris: A few calls are yet to be made as the office closes at 10 so you will maybe get your tommorow.

Moi: Okay thanks alot. Good Luck!

Chris: Bye

Im reading posts om other sites of people getting mixed messages.

Some say it won't be delivered on the 8th
Others say it will
Everyone else is just as confused as me!


Read that if you didn't get a call you won't get it but I was told instore i would and have payed the full amount!



Launch shambles? I think so!
 
To be honest, I have always been very skeptical that I'd get it at launch, because it seemed a bit too good to be true.
 
Can't remember the exact date, but i know it was the first day they were taking pre-orders. My mate works there and checked on the system and we were the first two to pre-order it from that store :)
 
Ah okay. Judging by the other Argos thread, it doesn't look like they've been allocated on a first come, first serve basis anyway.
 
This part is classic....

Chris: Have you heard anything back from us?

Moi: No

Chris: Then you should recieve the console on Friday morning as there have been no problems.

Moi: But I was told it wouldn't be delivered then.

You just lied to the guy ahaha.
