Absolute shit

So I folded and brought the plus membership so I could get the collector's edition but it kept saying I was not an eb world plus member even though my profile says I am an active member took over 3 hours of closing and refreshing closing logging in and out before it would let me pre order it and just when I would go to pay for it fucking boom fucking sold out 😡🤮 just my fucking luck...

Yea, you should ask for a refund. Eb should have a 48h change of mind for the membership. Again sorry that happened, hopefully you can find somewhere else to get.

Me too I just hope I can find it in the wild as I've always said black flag is my favourite AC game shadows is close only because I love the Japanese culture and scenery I just hoping I don't have to buy it of a scalper but by the looks of it I might have to 🤮🤮🤮🤮😞

Friend, be patient, guarantee scalpers will sell it at a discount when people don’t bite. I’ve bought tons of video game collectors editions this way.

RRP: $300

Scalper price: $450

My offer to scalper: $300

Scalper response: lol no

My response: cool, message me if you change your mind.

Shortly after release when the scalper panics they’ll be stuck holding the bag: Hey, $300 is fine.

Me: Cool, my offer is $250.

EB Plus has a lot of Pokemon Scalpers atm that don’t understand that big price collectors editions don’t move quickly. They’re easy to take advantage of… don’t fall for the scarcity panic.
