I can't find it on the regular Amazon site but if you have prime now it's a good deal with free delivery
Even better if you have one of the £5 promotion discounts for buying a no rush item on Amazon (which I had)
Don't forget to remove the optional tip (what's with these tips anyway, aren't they being paid enough? It's not like we tip shop workers who serve us, or when we post an item in the post office or even the local postman)
Thanks op! Used VG5OFF35 and ordered it for £30.99 as "preorder", hopefully it'll go through!

How'd I miss that one! I could have used my £5 off the prime now for something else and used that one instead! Thanks, I'll add it to the post

"aren't they paid enough?" - well, unless you have details of their pay, let's stop speculating on a service where pay is clearly subsidised by tips.

You've misquoted me I said "aren't they being paid enough?" no speculation, just an honest question. The UK has a minimum wage so tips shouldn't be used to subsidise a salary
Anyway this is off topic, so let's just discuss the deal!

The word "being" that I missed out doesn't actually change the meaning. It was a speculative question.
Minimum wage doesn't mean they are paid the appropriate amount, especially in a delivery job like this where extra costs are incurred. I agree that tips shouldn't be something to subsidise a salary, but they are - simply by the fact Amazon are doing it.
If you make an "honest question" within your post, don't be surprised when people respond to it.

Amazon does not pay delivery drivers a salary.
They are hired as self employed contractors and are paid per delivery.
Without the tip system Prime Now is most likely unsustainable for the drivers.

I also don't like the option of tips, I am not going to use this service at all.

Tipping is an American thing, as that is how they make their money, as they do not have minimum wage and are paid tiny amounts per hour, the tips are relied upon. Here it should be paid for good service, asking for a tip prior to the service defeats the object!

Nice. Paid £30.99 including the code. Can't believe this game is still going for this much.

Ordered for £30.99 as pre-order. Let's hope it's not too long till they get stock.

My copy has shipped so only (?) took a couple of weeks, still better than the specified 1-2 months.
