I preordered through amazon with prime. I contacted customer support about this and was told that anything other than standard shipping would be guaranteed arrival on release day. It only says 17th until it actually ships.

Who are they shipping with? As far as I know places like UPS don't generally do residential deliveries on Saturdays without an additional fee.

Minimum wage is $400 monthly.

Don't you ever go to a bank or post office ?
How do you pay for the things you buy online and how are they delivered to you ?
Don't you come in contact with people in these situations ?

well good luck putting your hopes in whatever a customer service agent have told you. He probably didn't mention that amazon policies are to deliver on business days. They are probably just trying to keep as much people preordering from them because everyone is switching to gamestop's by hiding important info regarding their shipping policies..

from /a/'s favorite website:

>Amazon has a policy for Prime customers that guarantees delivery of pre-order items like games or movies on their release date. Pokemon X/Y comes out on a Saturday, which is a day Amazon doesn't normally deliver on, so I asked their customer support team to see how shipping and delivery of the game would go

>Basically I was told that even though the game's release date is October 12th, and I'm a prime customer, since it's a Saturday release date they will consider the following business day as the official release date (in this case, Monday, October 14th) which is their guarantee.

I have to go to the bank rarely, yes. It's frightening. I pay for things with the little bit of leftover cash I have from college grants, which has lasted me a while because I'm pretty good with money. I also occasionally so small favors for people for small amounts of money. Normally the delivery people just leave the stuff on the doorstep and I can pick it up whenever.

Man it's nice knowing I'll go outside on Friday night, come home at sunrise, sleep until noon, then take a 5 minutes walk to a store and buy the game without even having to wait in lines.

I don't know any neets personally and wasn't even familiar with the term, until I started reading mangas.
So I guess I find it interesting since it's something I don't come across often if not ever.

Not that I haven't met people Not in Education, Employment or Training, but actual shut-ins with extreme social anxiety/social phobia.
I guess in actuall 1st world countries it's a less rare sight.

Any place that's in amazon delivery should have a supermarket available too. They don't sell games at your local supermarket? Mine did the preorder just like any specialized cidya store, and even had the limited edition 3DS.
