God of War 3Shipped:
Gears Of War: Judgment
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
Darksiders 2 Limited Edition
Resident Evil 6
Castlevania: The Lords Of Shadow CollectionI ordered 2h after the deal was posted.
CANCELLED! I hope they provide stock in the order of who placed their orders first… Mine got cancelled and I ordered within minutes after this post was listed when there was only a dozen positive votes :(
Mine's still processing, I also ordered minutes after the post was made, but others who ordered later seem to be getting theirs shipped?! They need to do a better job recording their inventory.
EDIT: 2 of mine were cancelled: Metal Gear Rising and Invizimals so not too disappointed.
I hope so too. I ordered around 8:15 last night. Did you order earlier?
I ordered at 4:20 yesterday FYI
4.20 WA time? Is that 1min before my order was confirmed?
I ordered at 6:41pm yesterday, 6 mins after this bargain was posted
No hope for me then. Ah wells the ship is sinking
Just got a cancellation email for Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. Oh well.

i think all mine got cancelled but they threw in a 10% off voucher… thats nice of them at least :)
Will wait for the 20% off DVD/BD sale again, then combine the 10% above it.
Mine says 10% of gaming, not DVD
ahh yes, damn I don't really buy games from JB.
Edit: with the inconvenience caused, at least make it 10% off include dvd/BD too.
Same. Would have considered buying a game guide but can't even use it for that.
Edit: Yes it does work, just can't be used on preorders! They never mentioned that…
Boo urns cancelled :(. All I want is x com, anyone want to trade for it?
Where are you located?
Vic 3155
Im in Sydney… I could post it to you if you like….
My large order of 12 different games (no doubles) got cancelled as well. well mostly. Amusingly my order of Tokyo ghost hunters in it got shipped and in the cancellation message my Tales of xillia 2 wasn't mentioned so I guess I'm getting that too? Interested to see how they're going to handle the refund of my gift card as I used partial GC and partial debit card.
Also it's complete BS how they're fulfilling some orders but still saying orders are being cancelled due to it being an in store only promo and yet they are fulfilling some or most orders. Just own up to it and say you don't have enough stock or at least don't lie (obviously) and say it's being cancelled for a reason that implies all orders should be cancelled when they weren't.
In Brisbane, there was a bunch of Tales of Xilia 2 Day one editions out on the shelf at lunch so maybe you might still get it.
My own Tokyo twilight order got cancelled too but I managed to pick up a store copy luckily.Yea mate it's complete bullshit. My first order which consisted of five of the $1 games and one $5 game got cancelled along with the email saying it was meant to be an in store promotion. Couple of hours later and my second order which consisted of one $5 game has now been completed/shipped.
Which is it JB? Just man up and accept you stuffed up. Not worth crying over a couple cheap games but I wish there was something we could do. It's the principle of it more than anything.
Well my 2x $1 game order got cancelled, they did give me a 10% game voucher though which is nice. Oh well, can't get all the bargains ;) What to do with $3 remaining on a gift card though …
Find the 2 x $1 games you wanted in-store and use the 10% game voucher bargain on top of bargain. haha
All of my orders got cancelled as well. I'm sure by the time I visit any store tomorrow, there are no more good $1 games left…
Yup just got the rejection email now.
KUDOS to those who stepped up and went to the stores.
10 of my 11 cancelled
I placed 2 orders. One of the orders had only 1 game (GOW 3) which I received an email about tonight saying it has been cancelled.

Does anyone know if it is actually $1 in-store?My whole order got cancelled. Only got a few $1 games. I knew it was too good to be true lol

:( :(
:(
Still one shipped and the rest in progress, no cancellation yet. Might check out my local tomorrow and see what's on the shelf but at least they are honouring some orders
ahahaha I am a cocky (profanity), they just cancelled all but the one they shipped which was tokyo twilight ghost hunters, the rest were $1 but strangely they didn't mention a cancellation for one other game - NBA 2k14. I didn't even want any of them so much I just couldn't pass up a bargain, but I'm definitely going to raid my local tomorrow morning.
Can we revoke our positive vote if our order got cancelled?
My 2 PS3 games are cancelled, my sis 1 XBox360 game is available, but no point so she also cancelled her order too.
Revoked my positive vote :(
Man, Kratos is to blame for all these cancelled orders!
Got the order cancelled email but still showing "in progress" in my account, and have yet to receive my refund.
Same.
My order got cancelled, ordered a minute after the deal was posted. 5 $1 games cancelled. =[
I only wanted DBZ battle of Z. Just now found out i have to look for shenlong for a copy. Now have to find a cheap db radar
GoW3 = Cancelled
JB HiFi = DicksmithOrder cancelled. Ah wells. I was excited about ordering them but I guess I'm ok with it. I even created a JB Hi-Fi account just for this purchase.
Disappointing. Should have went in store I suppose but not with people broden the lot when the shop opens
They rather cancel orders then fulfilling them. Very bad service
Order canceled, offered a 10% off code.
Got the email to say 5 of my 10 Xbox 360 games cancelled. Had a shipping notice for the Skylanders trap crystal earlier today hence wonder if I'll receive the remaining 5 games not mentioned!?
All mine got cancelled got 10% 8 games
Yeah, what a waste of time. 10% off also
Save your vote until the vendor fulfils your order!
I got the cancellation notice but a few games were omitted out of the 13 (each different) I ordered. No mention whether they will also be cancelled.
P.S. The neg is for reneging on the deal. Clearly a lie and, at best, very bad customer service.
Also, the legal guy talking about lodging a claim: Not sure if that is correct information. It's happened plenty of times and Dell successfully defended against a class suit where customers were trying to get them honour an online pricing error.
Damn, got an email confirming that we won't get the deal.

Is it legal to store my credit card details? If not legal, how can they refund to my credit card without asking me?
Your credit card information would remain encrypted on their severs. It would be as simple as pressing a button.
The thing is I Did not click save my credit card for future purchase on their website so it should not by any means to store my cc numbers. Am I correct?
Nope, not correct, and I already answered that question. They can issue a refund at the press of a button. No one needs to know your credit card numbers.
Boo. I only ordered 5 and all got cancelled. Should've gone in store but I doubt there would've been any left by the time I made it.
Poor custoMer experience
You can t reply to that cancellation email
Some went through, and the rest cancelled. Cancel them all then, don't just select what you want! Disappointing customer service.
I ordered 13 games and 7 were cancelled in the email. I hope this means that the remaining 6 were shipped.
Not sure to which way to vote on this deal.
Lol my first order was cancelled however my castlevania order was shipped
all mine got cancelled :(
its sad to see those who ordered later than me got it and mine got cancelled
Strangely, I'm yet to be hit with any sort of cancellation email. I ordered 10PM-ish last night, and have only had one shipped so far, the rest "In Progress". Would be good if I get em, but I'm not really that hopeful lol. Might try local store tomorrow (Strathpine, hopefully it hasn't been picked clean) and will cancel online if I find em at the same price there. For anyone curious about what I still have pending:
Xbox 360:
Watch Dogs Vigilante Edition (this is the one that got shipped out today)
Gears Of War: Judgment
Need For Speed Most Wanted
Resident Evil 6
Medal Of Honor Warfighter (Limited Edition)
Dark Souls IIPS3:
Deception IV: Blood Ties
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
Tales of Xillia 2 Day One Edition9 of my 13 was cancelled. Two $1 games not cancelled and two $10 games not cancelled.
Really wanted Ninja Gaiden :( guess ill look instore tomorrow
I haven't received any emails yet ,but logging into my account one is showing as shipped and the other as waiting for collection.
Still wouldn't be surprised if it falls through, but perhaps there was benefit to only ordering a couple if items… Time will tell!
Successfully picked up my C&C order today :) thanks OP and sorry to the others who has theirs cancelled!
Cancelled.
Anyone know if the 10% off code (received from order being cancelled) can be used after price matching? I doubt I'll use mine otherwise.
Unlikely mate, I think the code is directed at games only as well. I got all my orders cancelled and they didn't give me anything nor did they admit there was no stock. Held JB pretty highly up to this point really, always purchased my expensive electronics there (ipad, macbook etc.). If they decide to send me the voucher I'd just throw it on a Vita game or something.
saw a lot of jbhifi stickered ps3 and xbox360 games on ebay
some listing even have multiple quantities.
those titles appearing on ebay are the same titles from JB, so can't deny it's not JB stock.Links? Very disappointing and annoying when people do this.
Just start scrolling down until you see a bunch of JB Hi-Fi stickers. This user is absolutely shameless. This one as well.
Suddenly listing a bunch of PS3/X360 games, coincidentally with JB Hi-Fi stickers? Bloody hoarders. I'm sure there are more as well.
Godzilla was in the JB sale, look at how much is selling for.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Brand-New-Sealed-Godzilla-Ps3-Pal…God Damn!
My order still "in progress". Don't know if I should take it as cancelled and go in store to try my luck tomorrow.
FFS. I just got the cancellation email too. This is the third time I've tried to order from JB, and the third time they've cancelled my order. This is beyond a joke.
same for me. but we never learn :p
1st one was they cancel the dvd I bought for my son….. chipmunks 1&2 boxset after 6 weeks!
Following up on an earlier post, my order was showing as Completed with both games 'Picked Up'. I drove down to the store last night and everything was okay. The games (PS3 Borderlands 2 and Tales of Xillia 2) were waiting behind the counter. The manager said the computers were going crazy and some orders were incorrectly showing Completed.
Not too many sale games left at Glendale NSW for those interested. I did see South Park Stick of Truth and Tales of Symphonia:Chronicles PS3 - which I'm assuming will scan at $10 if anyone is interested.
5 of 8 games i ordered cancelled…
6 out of 7 cancelled - poor form. JB you've done it again!
3 out of 10 cancelled. I can live with that as long as they ship the rest.
$1 God of War cancelled. $5 Need for speed remains.
10 out of 10 cancelled. They gave me a 10% off discount voucher that can only be used on games and is only active for 1 month. A bit weak.
Cancelled, for some reason they cancelled my single order into two so I got two 10% off codes :)
Can you stack the code?
Unfortunately no and it applies to softwares only not consoles :(
"This coupon is valid from 9th December 2015 until the 9th January 2016, it may be redeemed in-store or online, and cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer."
My entire order was cancelled last night, walked into my local store and bought 80% of it straight off the shelf, so it's well worth going in for a look if you can be bothered!
All my 12 games got cancelled! That's some bullshit man >:(
That's not really our fault and they should fulfill their part.
Not on JB!
I just walked into Forest Hill JB, VIC and bought 8 of the 9 Xbox 360 that were in my order online. 6 of them were the only copy in the store and only 1 of them had a $1 price tag on it.
Here's my 10% off code for anyone who may want to use it:

Went in store and bought a few more $1 games already mentioned, the one that surprise me is Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 360 for $1.
I found their reason for cancellation is not acceptable. If they said they have made an error causing clearance game stock in-store only appeared for a short time online for purchase they should have cancelled all online order. However some people are still getting their online order fulfilled either in full or partially. To me this is more like JB has oversold the products and can't fulfilled them and just cancel the order with that reason. Very unprofessional. Very valid ground to go to CAT and complaint
I went into my local store and found a bunch of $1 360 and PS3 games, so I bought a few :)
Tales of Xillia 2 and Tokyo Twilight shipped, others still in progress.
