    Official Where and How

    It's that time of year again. I figured I would get it started. I have gotten NCAA early for the last 4 years from this wonderful community called OS! Let's make it a 5th year. Any info I get I will pass on. I'm in NYC area, so I'll be checking all the boroughs and Jersey aswell as upstate.

        Is that going to be our official thread or are the mods going to make an official one for us? We should start seeing people who have it that are not under the Embargo restriction today or tomorrrow..

            re: Official Where and How

            I will have it Friday at noon if nothing else (from the NW ohio store), I'm hoping it shows up here in Cbus somewhere though on Thursday so I can ship it out then instead of the Saturday delivery thing though.

              Any idea if the store on the west side of Cbus will be getting it early? I got it there last year, but the last few games they didn't sell early (NBA 2k10, MLB: The Show).

                I have not called them but the people I know that have said they indicate they won't get it early. However, they said that to me the last 2 years, right up until when I called and they said they had it and was selling it early.

                I did talk to another shop here another OSer told me about and he said he planned to sell his copies as soon as they came in. However, he said he was having difficulty finding any distributor willing to sell it to him early. He said most say they won't even ship until July 12th so he'd get them on July 13th.

                This place I speak of is about 2 miles from my house so I've been down there twice. I believe the guy is telling the truth about the distributors. This worries me a bit to be honest because if EA is putting pressure on the distributors to not ship to non-chain stores until July 12th then the moms and pops store early release each year could be a thing of the past.

                I'm going to check again with him and the west side place on Thursday.

                  Unfortunately, I think you're right. Please post if you find out anything new.

                    ODogg, have you spoken with the NWO spot to confirm Friday? Just saving myself a call.=) I DO know it is in lockup at my local Wal-Mart, I had a copy in my hands last night but couldn't the night manager wouldn't sell it.

                      The above thread has served as an informal precursor to this official thread which is established annually. That said, this thread should be strictly dedicated to posters who have the game confirmed in hand and want to share their sources.

                          I'd like to say I will run into you up there, but I have to work, so unless I leave early, I won't be able to start my journey up until 4PM.=) If I get a solid time, I may go in early so I can leave at 11 or noon.
