Pre ordering things through amazon

[Mandos]

How is the shipping? I pre-ordered ROTK:EE a great while back and I was wondering, should I expect my parcel on the date the movie is released or a week or two after?

I've had things arrive before street date, on the street date and some times a day or two later. It varies some but it's never more than a day or two later.

Excellent. Thanks man

Did you get free shipping, or standard? With standard shipping, they usually send it 1 day before the release date, so you get it a day or 2 after. With free shipping, they sit on it for a few days, and then ship it, so you get it about a week later.

Hmm, I preordered from buy.com.

Dunno about Amazon. What shipping method did you buy?

I chose the free shipping.

You can still edit your order, if you need it sooner. Check the status, and it will tell you the approx ship date, which is usually pretty close.
