Dear All,
Can someone clarify why there's a promo going on on the google store about getting the premiere edition for only 22.22€ when I have never seen it available. I was there when the promo was announced and have checked in on the store page every single day since (multiple times a day) and never seen it available.
I cannot help but wonder how many of these were available, if there even were some... maybe it is my frustration/disbelieve speaking here, but it does feel a lot like false advertising.
I asked support for possible availability again in near future and I can pretty much deduct that they won't be available again until promo ends... which is sad as the other promo's are still running, where you can get a premiere edition still...
I am looking at this from a Belgian customer point of view, maybe other countries have more stock...?
I am living in UK and told a friend of mine about the offer (for us it's £19.99 here in UK) and he had no problems to purchase one. This was some weeks ago though, yesterday he received the Premiere edition.
So yeah it might be that countries have different stock available, but it could also be a question of demand: Maybe in Belgium there was a crazy high demand for those premiere editions too? This is just a guess of mine, I do not have any insights.
If it's out of stock in Belgium though, I can imagine it's not coming back to the Google Store (which makes sense if they have none to offer anymore). So in your case maybe best to do is either to wait for another offer at some point in the future or check other alternatives if you prefer (some of my friends purchased theirs on Ebay for example, which was more than the current offer but still less than the original price), but those are at your own risk. It's just an option I see here for you.
Hi, thanks for your reply, you do have some valid perspective.
And it would not be that big of a deal if it was 100% genuine.
But it cannot be 'out of stock' as all seperate parts of the promo are still available, so why not the bundle? Ah because it was just a lure to get you to the store with a non-exisiting promo. I have a lot of friends also looked into buying this and none of them got it.
Apart from that, if you KNOW that it won't come available again, just remove the promo or product.
If it WILL come back into stock, let us reserve a copy with the promo, they do it at a lot of products, why not this one? Again, just a lure/false advertising.
Okay...okay, I am getting really salty, but it does just feel that you should not put up a product or promo when you don't have a decent amount of stock...
PS: I'm not going to buy it on ebay as I don't support this type of scamming/scalping.
They haven't even sent me a text just ignored me there's 2 days left if they don't do anything there may be a class act lawsuit cause they can't be selling something they supposedly don't have they are manipulating the consumer to buy a game for a free prize they never gift.
Out of stock
Completely agree that this was blatant false advertising - I also checked on the Belgian store every single day of the promotion - it was out of stock from start to end. Since the promotion is concluded, magically, more stock seems to have become available. If I got anything out of this it is the clear opinion that Google has of its customers - there are other services out there that are a lot more honest and transparent - I suggest spending your money elsewhere.
I'm from the UK and from the beginning of December until nearly Christmas day i brought 4 premier editions no false advertising they were on the store from early December until mid January on offer, must vary from country to country with availability im sorry guys
