Just tried to order Skyrim at Game and got 'Your billing address is invalid. Please either amend this address, or choose a different one'. Now this is the address I've been using for years and is the address my credit card is (and always has been linked with). Tried to give customer services a ring, got told 'Their lines were busy' and placed in an autotune hell queue, then noticed that it was a 10p a minute line and thought sod this.

EDIT: Persevered, because I want this game. Got through to a customer service 'agent'.

Me: Hi, I'm getting a message saying my billing address is invalid when I try to buy something on your site.
Game: I apologise for our site being down sir.
Me: No, the site itself is working, I'm looking at it and browsing around right now.
Game: We've been told that it's down.
Me: Like I say it's not.
Game: It's a bit wishy-washy at the moment, I'm sure our tech team will fix these problems.
Me: Erm, thanks?
Game: Goodbye!

So really helpful.

I have ordered one. If you cannot get one then I'll send it on to you for £22.49 as the deal stated. I can move this to classified. I won't be playing so it'll be wrapped.

Thanks for the offer. I may try the nearest Gamestation instore at the weekend. Hopefully Amazon will drop the price of the 360 version as well as the PS3 one and then I can give my money to a retailer that actually deserves custom.

No worries, as I just discovered that CEX gives £24 cash and more if I trade it in another game that I actually do want...

Bah! This is the other game I wanted for xmas but I'm going to hold off or the girlfriend will go mental, spent too much already! Will wait until it's sub £20 in the January sales, I'm sure Skyrim will tide me over the xmas period.

Also at Gamestation. Limited Editions also £22.99 at both (and Gameplay), but not always in stock.

Have people received their Skyrim copy from gamestation yet? Mine said it was shipped the day I ordered, which was the day the offer came up but nothing has arrived yet.

Nope, I should have waited for the Amazon price match.
