For the likes of Big W, on release day, you'd have to call up to hold a copy when the store opens or be there at opening time... they don't do preorders or holds until they have stock so it's a matter of beating everyone else to it on the day.

In saying that, I preordered the CE from JB and they're doing overnight deliveries. As it's going to my PO Box, my post office will pick it up for me so I'll probably check it on Tues arvo and hope that a pick up slip is in my PO Box.

If it's anything like SC2, it's going to sell out everywhere except for EB where they will jack the price by $30

Dick Smith has dropped their price to $59 and stuck free delivery on it if anyone hasn't pre-ordered yet. Online only though by the look of it, unless the click and collect option only becomes available after the release date or something.

Hopefully JB follows through as well as they have a price guarantee and my bro got the standard ed... they'd gonna lose a lot of money though if they do.
