Hey im ordering guitar hero 3 for the wii next week and i seem to want to order it of play.com, Seeming as my parents are only in on a friday and i would be on a saturday what day should i order it? Should I order it on a wednesday afternoon? Well you tell me if youve orderd from there before and on average most of the time how many days do they take? Seeming as they are a private courier, they wouldnt just give it to the post office if im not in.

I've always had quite speedy deliveries from them, I guess it depends what you order and when you order it.

I've used play.com before it was o-k but I prefer using Gameplay.co.uk I ordered a game with them and it arrived the next day =]

Do you get the "guitar" as well? If so then oh right, otherwise they will.

Becasue there was a waiting list... :rolleyes:


Play.com is brilliant imo, I usually get packages a day after I order them :) But GamePlay.co.uk have got to be the best cheap next day delivery ftw.

Anything I pre-order I usually get a few days early, never received anything that late from Play myself.

Im not a fan of Play.com's delivery times. I'll only order it if it saves me money, other than that i use amazon and pay the 1.40 for first class postage so its guaranteed within 2 working days to be with you.


If your willing to wait alittle longer you can't fault them.

The reason the delivery is slow is because it's free, so you really can't complain.
