Also ~6% TCB/Quidco available + £4.95 back in points.
I've been keeping an eye on this, still cannot decide between this edition or special edition but with this being £100+ everywhere, and the history of uncharted, I am sure it will pay itself back within a short time. So, I think I will eventually cancel my special edition order and placed an order with Rakuten!
Rakuten takes the money upfront, but it is only 2 weeks till release...
Blurbs:
Pre Order Item Release Date - 10th May 2016 - Please note this item will be despatched just before release date. Also payment will be taken at time of purchase.
Several years after his last adventure, retired fortune hunter Nathan Drake is forced back into the world of thieves. With the stakes much more personal, Drake embarks on his greatest adventure in a globe-trotting journey in pursuit of a historical conspiracy behind a fabled pirate treasure. Every treasure has its cost and this adventure will test Drake’s physical limits, his resolve, and ultimately what he’s willing to sacrifice to save the ones he loves.
Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End is the latest installment of the award winning Uncharted series from acclaimed developer Naughty Dog. Launching exclusively for the PlayStation 4 system, A Thief’s End delivers the most thrilling Uncharted adventure yet with new gameplay mechanics, larger, more open environments, and enhanced graphics and animations that showcase the power of the PS4 system.
Set three years after Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, Nathan Drake has presumably left the world of fortune hunting behind. It doesn’t take long for adventure to come calling when Drake’s brother, Sam, resurfaces seeking his help and offering an adventure Drake can’t resist. On the hunt for Captain Henry Avery’s long-lost treasure, Sam and Drake set off to find Libertalia, the pirate utopia deep in Madagascar. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End takes players on a journey through jungle isles, urban cities and snow-capped peaks on the search for Avery’s fortune.
Key Features:
Next-Gen Blockbuster Adventure: Uncharted 4 ushers in a more cinematic experience on the PS4 system with real-time cut scenes and new character animations to highlight Naughty Dog’s signature storytelling.
Dynamic Gameplay: Evolved mechanics give players many fresh approaches to gameplay, including new rope and grappling mechanics, added climbing moves and equipment, and seamless fluidity between melee, stealth, and combat.
Expansive Environments: Varied and richly detailed environments open up with multiple navigation paths to encourage exploration. Gameplay and enemy AI strategically leverage the wider design and added verticality.
Drivable Vehicles: For the first time in Uncharted history, drive vehicles during gameplay to make big moments even more spectacular and interactive.
Uncharted Multiplayer: Uncharted 4 will continue to evolve the franchise’s multiplayer experience on PS4.

Ughhhhh had played a few hours on another ps4 copy of uncharted. Sold that once this came - but my old saves won't load on this CD :disappointed:.

Nothing to congratulate me on, thanks for the initial deal.
I am guessing it was you who sent me a friend request on PSN right? I accepted last night.
Talking of PSN, Jesus I see this has got a 5 gig update :confused: really is a liberty how big these day one patches are!
Have you redeemed the DLC code that came included in between the game case and artbook, or has anyone else?
I put it in, it accepted and said about 13 individual bits to it but went a bit monkey after that and I didn't get anyone of them appearing on my downloads notifications :neutral_face: really hope they've not gone astray somewhere

Every guide I've ever bought that comes with any kind of eguide deal has been USD, par for the course that.
I have read some rather worrying reports of trojans in Prima eguides quite a few times.
To be honest even when I've had included codes that give you an extra eguide totally 100% on the Freddie Freeman's I ain't ever redeemed em so I can't speak from personal experience whatsoever.

No shrink wrap mate. Only sealed. I've bought the collector guide from wordery. I've also got that today. They despatched on Saturday. It seems to be the American print of the book or unsure if they're all the same? On the back of book there's a voucher for downloading a $10 eguide

That Book Depository mob from Holborn I bought the Uncharted Journal from are jokers I'm telling ya, bought it last Wednesday but they didn't ship it till yesterday :smirk: needless to say it ain't arrived today.

I emailed these guys yesterday and they said that their delivery to their warehouse had been delayed and that these editions would be sent out today for delivery tomorrow instead.
I had a bad feeling about these guys which is why I initially emailed them.
I notice on their listing page they got these back in stock, first 3 then 8 then back out of stock again...maybe they have them but just not updated yet....least that's what I'm hoping.....

How much did it cost at Asda then?
Don't seem like supermarkets do those 'loss leaders' on big video games like they used to any more. I remember a massive queue outside Sainsbury's in Loughton at 7am on COD release day 8 or 9 years ago because they was doing it for a score or perhaps a 24 quid.
I'm waiting till lunchtime to call Boss Deals and if they say there's another delay I'm going to go via Harlow and collect the one I've got reserved from Game.
Got to take my mum's new dog, who we found dumoed in the street by some sicko a month ago by the way, to the vet's in Epping anyway and then I'll shoot down to Woodford to grab my PS4 to bring back up here.
Having watched vds of the first few chapters of gameplay from Zac Scott and GameRiot on Youtube last night I seriously need this in my life ASAP!

Just logged into shopto account and saw this message there. Makes me believe Boss Deals are not lying about the delay, it is a general issue with Sony:
***IMPORTANT UNCHARTED 4 SHIPPING INFORMATION***
We have just been advised by SONY that they have placed a shipping restriction on Uncharted 4 for all retailers, these will now be shipped on Monday the 9th. This should not affect delivery of the item for release but some delays can occur within the postal service on rare occasions.
mixmixi
9 May 16#77
I am sorry both, this was my first post/experience from Boss Deals. I have been told via email that this will be despatched tomorrow, too. A day of delay for me is not a big deal as I have had worse with pre-order of my all-time favourite game (MGSV) with shopto who sent me the game by 5 days delay. But I do understand for some of you this is really important to get the game on the day of release. :disappointed:
Raz
9 May 16#76
Lol you're right. I was running on a very tight schedule and so even a few hours late would mean no Uncharted for a few days! I'm going to pop by Asda later I think and try and flog it off after a day or two :wink:

Just received an email from Boss Deals. Order delayed by one day. Safe to say last time ordering with them!
Chasloyal to Raz
9 May 16#75
I wouldn't bite my nose off to spite my face as they say, 83 quid plays £110 is a big difference. I'm not very happy about it but as long as it comes through I'm prepared to let it go, even if it is a day late.
That said if tomorrow they end up cancelling our orders 'due to unforseen circumstances' on the other hand I'm going to pipe right up though.
How much are the supermarkets doing the bog standard copy for?
I'm tempted to drive up to Harlow tonight if they're doing a good deal on it with shopping but otherwise I'll leave it.
I'm back at my mum's now and I didn't bring the Playstation up with me so I'd have to go all the way down back to mine in Woodford and back up to Stortford via Harlow. It's a load of hassle for something I hope will get day after tomorrow anyway :neutral_face:

Hope you're right mate, the fella I spoke to said this edition had been delayed "right across the board" but the only other retailer I know of who has got it is Game and I even called the Harlow branch to find out how many they got and reserved one now in case this mob don't come up with it.

Chasloyal
5 May 16#56
Having just read some of the reviews I am bouncing round my mother's flat in frustration at the thought of having to wait another 5 days to get me hands on it so I just called Boss Deals to ask if they'd be sending them out early.....she said no.
Anyway though, she did point out that all these special editions will be going out Monday on next day service and because I am spending so much time at my mum's I asked if she could change the delivery address from mine to here but she again said no, because of fraud reasons.
So I am as satisfied as can be in our situation that those of us who have ordered this from them will be receiving it in 5 days time, feel free to shoot me down in flames and call me an utter Toby if it turns out I've called it wrong cometh the hour :smirk:

Used a normal debit card I believe! I ordered two days after you and then there was Bank holiday, hence the likely delay!
mixmixi

Well the thing is Rakuten is in charge for processing the payments. They do charge the payment card upon placing the order. What sort of card did you use that you were not charged until now? My payment was taken and was cleared in my account a few days ago!
Raz
4 May 16#53
I placed my order a little after you did I think. But perhaps they're just going through them in batches? But either way, it probably means they've processed the order! Which is good?! I hope lol

I should be more vigilant with my transactions but I never check them, when I use a selection of paypal, debit card and one of three credit cards I just cant be bothered but I was under the impression they took payment straight away anyway.

How come?! They've taken the money from my account when I placed the order?
Raz
4 May 16#49
Lol! Sorry to set off a trend. You're right - the fact that they marked it OOS is reassuring. I've never ordered from them before hence the hesitancy. It's my first collectors item I've ever bought so I'll be really disappointed! HERE'S TO NEXT WEEK!
Chasloyal
3 May 16#48
Hmmm I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt on the strength of me having spoke to them on the phone last week, though I must admit I've still not cancelled my prior pre-order from Amazon France yet.
I'd like to think the fact they're marking it as sold out would suggest they're responsible traders who won't keep taking orders for something they know they won't have stock, which alas many others out there seem to do all the time.
I shall most likely give them another bell tomorrow but at the end of the day we're not going to know for certain till this time next week, fingers crossed :confused:

Nothing to thank me for mate, I wanted to bell them anyway and I feel all the more comfortable for doing so plus their reviews seem excellent bar the odd one here n there but then again that is the same with all third party sellers from ebay to amazon.
I had the same issue myself. Just used my second account to use the code and placed the order.
TomBoyNI
29 Apr 16#38
I needed to contact them as I was unable to place an order, as per my comment, and that of the person before me.
For all I know their link with the payment system may be down, and who knows, maybe they don't even know it.
Also I contacted Rakuten as well. The fact is the payment was never even getting as far as making a request to my bank, so it is a problem with Rakuten or the sellers side of things, when you couple that with an address that is returning undelivered (the address as displayed on the Rakuten page) I though I would share that information.
Thankfully helpful replies have been received, removing my concerns but still no order...
TomBoyNI

Hivanh91
26 Apr 161#22
This is a really poor collectors edition, especialy when compared to the Uncharted 3 collectors edition - deffo not worth this price for the sake of some DLC and a statue - I'll stick to my £22.00 standard edition preorder :smiley:
cicobuff to Hivanh91
26 Apr 16#26
Not at this price it is far from poor. We are talking about a 12" statue made by Gentle Giant who are known for their collectable statues, easily valuing it at around £40. Consider the cost of the standalone game (you were fortunate enough to get the regular edition pre-order for £22) and the regular collectors edition whether or not you personally are into collectable figurines or not it is good value.

HOT! Had this ordered at game for £105 but cancelled after the preordering at TGC for £37, couldn't justify a £70 difference. Had a few points so got this for £83 total. £45 extra for the biggest edition of my favourite series is well worth it in my eyes! Have some heat!

I was tempted myself too up until 5 minutes ago. The thing is, I've pre-ordered the special edition for £45 before which is a good price, but now I am not tempted anymore.... because I cancelled my special edition and went for this! LOL

I am still unsure. I know their ebay store is fine but their Rakuten store has been unclear so far. I can see a hot deal being posted today and not taken down so I assume it is fine now? A mod can clarify, I think.

Opening post
Also ~6% TCB/Quidco available + £4.95 back in points.
I've been keeping an eye on this, still cannot decide between this edition or special edition but with this being £100+ everywhere, and the history of uncharted, I am sure it will pay itself back within a short time. So, I think I will eventually cancel my special edition order and placed an order with Rakuten!
Rakuten takes the money upfront, but it is only 2 weeks till release...
Blurbs:
Pre Order Item Release Date - 10th May 2016 - Please note this item will be despatched just before release date. Also payment will be taken at time of purchase.
Several years after his last adventure, retired fortune hunter Nathan Drake is forced back into the world of thieves. With the stakes much more personal, Drake embarks on his greatest adventure in a globe-trotting journey in pursuit of a historical conspiracy behind a fabled pirate treasure. Every treasure has its cost and this adventure will test Drake’s physical limits, his resolve, and ultimately what he’s willing to sacrifice to save the ones he loves.
Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End is the latest installment of the award winning Uncharted series from acclaimed developer Naughty Dog. Launching exclusively for the PlayStation 4 system, A Thief’s End delivers the most thrilling Uncharted adventure yet with new gameplay mechanics, larger, more open environments, and enhanced graphics and animations that showcase the power of the PS4 system.
Set three years after Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, Nathan Drake has presumably left the world of fortune hunting behind. It doesn’t take long for adventure to come calling when Drake’s brother, Sam, resurfaces seeking his help and offering an adventure Drake can’t resist. On the hunt for Captain Henry Avery’s long-lost treasure, Sam and Drake set off to find Libertalia, the pirate utopia deep in Madagascar. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End takes players on a journey through jungle isles, urban cities and snow-capped peaks on the search for Avery’s fortune.
Key Features:
Next-Gen Blockbuster Adventure: Uncharted 4 ushers in a more cinematic experience on the PS4 system with real-time cut scenes and new character animations to highlight Naughty Dog’s signature storytelling.
Dynamic Gameplay: Evolved mechanics give players many fresh approaches to gameplay, including new rope and grappling mechanics, added climbing moves and equipment, and seamless fluidity between melee, stealth, and combat.
Expansive Environments: Varied and richly detailed environments open up with multiple navigation paths to encourage exploration. Gameplay and enemy AI strategically leverage the wider design and added verticality.
Drivable Vehicles: For the first time in Uncharted history, drive vehicles during gameplay to make big moments even more spectacular and interactive.
Uncharted Multiplayer: Uncharted 4 will continue to evolve the franchise’s multiplayer experience on PS4.

i'm on chapter 13 now, unlucky for some :smile:
I am guessing it was you who sent me a friend request on PSN right? I accepted last night.
Talking of PSN, Jesus I see this has got a 5 gig update :confused: really is a liberty how big these day one patches are!
Have you redeemed the DLC code that came included in between the game case and artbook, or has anyone else?
I put it in, it accepted and said about 13 individual bits to it but went a bit monkey after that and I didn't get anyone of them appearing on my downloads notifications :neutral_face: really hope they've not gone astray somewhere
I have read some rather worrying reports of trojans in Prima eguides quite a few times.
To be honest even when I've had included codes that give you an extra eguide totally 100% on the Freddie Freeman's I ain't ever redeemed em so I can't speak from personal experience whatsoever.
Look what's finally arrived, being guarded by our very poorly ickle waif and stray who wandered in to our world last month
That Book Depository mob from Holborn I bought the Uncharted Journal from are jokers I'm telling ya, bought it last Wednesday but they didn't ship it till yesterday :smirk: needless to say it ain't arrived today.
The strategy guide is preparing for despatch so I may get that tomorrow but they still quoting 17th.
Got to pop down to Stortford now to do a bit of supply shopping from Aldi and Waitrose before DPD show up
Just to make you jealous lol.
When eventually we move out to the yokel plains of Suffolkshire or Norfolkshire and I get a fully functioning brat bin again I may well open up a few more and have all the figurines inside proper display cabinets.
God I've become such a nerd in my middle age when you think of the proud young ASBO I once was :confused:
I've never ever had a problem with DPD, touch wood, so have got no reason to doubt them showing tomorrow.
Afer my whining like a big girl's blouse yesterday I have to back track and say Boss Deals been as good as their word and even better agreed to change delivery address last minute.
The Chas is a happy bunny at this moment in time, over to you DPD to make my day tomorrow :smirk:
I had a bad feeling about these guys which is why I initially emailed them.
I notice on their listing page they got these back in stock, first 3 then 8 then back out of stock again...maybe they have them but just not updated yet....least that's what I'm hoping.....
Unless they've already been handed over to DPD but they are just late on sending the dispatch email out.
All I had to do was mail them through Rakuten with the request so that is a right result.
Edit: just received this
"Dear Mr./Mrs./Ms. CHARLES xxxxx,
Thanks for this, I can confirm i have now updated your address to the one you have requested.
Thanks
Lucy
In response to"
So all I can say is thank you Lucy in the sky with diamonds :smile:
Good woork though, did they 100% confirm they got it in stock now?
I might give em a bell and try talking them in to changing the delivery address to my mother's again, all the more seeing they've messed us around for a day now :smirk:
Phoned them just now and they said they've two vans today from DPD collecting the orders for delivery tomorrow. They also added my phone number to the order for a delivery slot tomorrow that DPD will notify me of. They said we should receive a despatch confirmation by 3:30PM today.
Don't seem like supermarkets do those 'loss leaders' on big video games like they used to any more. I remember a massive queue outside Sainsbury's in Loughton at 7am on COD release day 8 or 9 years ago because they was doing it for a score or perhaps a 24 quid.
I'm waiting till lunchtime to call Boss Deals and if they say there's another delay I'm going to go via Harlow and collect the one I've got reserved from Game.
Got to take my mum's new dog, who we found dumoed in the street by some sicko a month ago by the way, to the vet's in Epping anyway and then I'll shoot down to Woodford to grab my PS4 to bring back up here.
Having watched vds of the first few chapters of gameplay from Zac Scott and GameRiot on Youtube last night I seriously need this in my life ASAP!
Here's hoping they sort it tomorrow though :man:
Just logged into shopto account and saw this message there. Makes me believe Boss Deals are not lying about the delay, it is a general issue with Sony:
***IMPORTANT UNCHARTED 4 SHIPPING INFORMATION***
We have just been advised by SONY that they have placed a shipping restriction on Uncharted 4 for all retailers, these will now be shipped on Monday the 9th. This should not affect delivery of the item for release but some delays can occur within the postal service on rare occasions.
I am sorry both, this was my first post/experience from Boss Deals. I have been told via email that this will be despatched tomorrow, too. A day of delay for me is not a big deal as I have had worse with pre-order of my all-time favourite game (MGSV) with shopto who sent me the game by 5 days delay. But I do understand for some of you this is really important to get the game on the day of release. :disappointed:
That said if tomorrow they end up cancelling our orders 'due to unforseen circumstances' on the other hand I'm going to pipe right up though.
How much are the supermarkets doing the bog standard copy for?
I'm tempted to drive up to Harlow tonight if they're doing a good deal on it with shopping but otherwise I'll leave it.
I'm back at my mum's now and I didn't bring the Playstation up with me so I'd have to go all the way down back to mine in Woodford and back up to Stortford via Harlow. It's a load of hassle for something I hope will get day after tomorrow anyway :neutral_face:
I was in Barbados once, our flight to St Lucia and the return to Gatwick stopped there for an hour or so :sunglasses: very nice tarmac on the runway so it was
Looking for Late to the party Pre-Order... Going for the Special at £53 as I'm so 2000 & late!
We all pre-ordered at this price at the end of April mate
That other book thing I ordered still ain't been despatched and I mailed them asking when it would yet no reply hmmmm they got excellent feedback though so will give 'em the benefit of the doubt.
My PSN ID is the same as my username on here if you or anyone else wants to add me by the way
God I'm just such a brat I know but this wait is getting painful now :smile:
Anyway though, she did point out that all these special editions will be going out Monday on next day service and because I am spending so much time at my mum's I asked if she could change the delivery address from mine to here but she again said no, because of fraud reasons.
So I am as satisfied as can be in our situation that those of us who have ordered this from them will be receiving it in 5 days time, feel free to shoot me down in flames and call me an utter Toby if it turns out I've called it wrong cometh the hour :smirk:
I will have a nosey later but it's just not possible at the minute with so much going on. I not even got round to calling them yet like I said I would :confused:
I'd like to think the fact they're marking it as sold out would suggest they're responsible traders who won't keep taking orders for something they know they won't have stock, which alas many others out there seem to do all the time.
I shall most likely give them another bell tomorrow but at the end of the day we're not going to know for certain till this time next week, fingers crossed :confused:
http://www.rakuten.co.uk/shop/bossdeals/review/
For all I know their link with the payment system may be down, and who knows, maybe they don't even know it.
Also I contacted Rakuten as well. The fact is the payment was never even getting as far as making a request to my bank, so it is a problem with Rakuten or the sellers side of things, when you couple that with an address that is returning undelivered (the address as displayed on the Rakuten page) I though I would share that information.
Thankfully helpful replies have been received, removing my concerns but still no order...
Asked for my order number double checked everything and guaranteed me 100% they still had more ordered than what they'd sold.
They don't strike me as shady like say them Scouse wrong'uns from videogamebox, cue someone from up that manor digging me out saying Wirral folk are 'woolybacks' now :smirk:

Now I am not so sure I want to order from them at all!
Code worked fine for me and I had a wee bit loyalty credit too so 83 n half quid, thank you most kindly OP.
I've never used Boss Deals before but they seem to have top feedback and I had this pre-ordered from Amazon France for around €130 so very happy with this....have some heat
. just a heads up if you haven't ordered mate.
...they are different retailers and so I could not use MAYDAY within the overall shopping basket.
