Quake3 For $33.95

Ok guys, it looks like my work with the Gamedealer.com guys to get a special pre-order special on Quake3 has worked out. I've set up this page with a link and instructions on how you can get one of the first copies of Quake3 for $33.95. This is the full game, I couldnt get a hold of the tin-box edition but what the hell, it's only a box. You arent dying to play with the box anyways right? You want the GAME. Gamedealer deals directly with Activision, so they will be the first to be able to get the game in your hands. note: I do not get any money out of these sales, I wanted the price as low as possible as a thank you to all of the readers who have supported my website through the years. Thanks! :)

  • No shit sTeve.
    There are TONS of people who took it up the ass on this Gamedealer thing. Most of us realize it\'s not your fault, but most of us also realize that we wouldnt have ordered from them if you hadnt mentioned it.
    So who is to blame, Gamedealer, UGO, or whatever the fuck they are called. And you should be spanked for not mentioning on your main page about a WEEK ago that those Gamedealer people are ignorant jackoffs and we all should cancel our orders. I had to drive 220 fucking miles round trip to get this game last Friday. GODDAMMITTT !!!!
    RESPECT MY AUTHORITAAAAAAAAH.
    FUcking Gamedealer/UGO. If you guys are reading this, I pray that you all get testicular cancer and your girlfriend/wives/sisters get the fucking herpes virus.
    Im not bitter tho.
    FUCK YOU GAMEDEALER,
    Phil
    ps Merry Christmas to All

  • #112, i got that same email yesterday. they actually were making a $3 profit per box, so losing money was not the issue. im not quite sure what the problem was but it is the absolute last time i ever attempt to work with another company on something like this.

    they make me a promise/guarantee and i relay that to my readers. when they dont come through all the blame falls on me although i have no control over the matter.

    cancel your order, never order from gamedealer again. it\'s your choice and i couldnt blame you at this point.








  • Hey, i was one of the probably many who ordered through your UGO deal(thank you very much). However for those who ordered that first day, some orders have been lost! I called to inquire about my order and they couldnt find it because apparently they switched systems or upgraded or something and have \"lost a few orders\" according to my customer representative. Calling the 1-800-335-0046 number wont get you anywhere, you have to call 1-800-610-2614, wait an hour for someone to pick up, and you can then ask for the manager Garth who is tracking down the lost orders. Now apparently not a whole lot have been lost, just a select \"lucky\" few of us.

    Im not trying create a panic, but rather make those who did order, aware of this problem. I believe you can check your status on the webpage and if it shows up, then you\'re ok. However i wouldnt know, since mine is lost and i dont exist to the web status stuff.
