Pre-order not Delivered

<p>I have pre-ordered the Switch more than a month ago and I have not received it today. That is kind of the idea of a pre-order- to receive the item on the day of release.</p> <p> </p> <p>Everybody who ordered at other places got theirs and they have either not pre-ordered and bought it directly in store or ordered it after I ordered mine. I ordered it in the beginning of February already and still you cannot deliver it on time.</p> <p> </p> <p>I am very dissappointed because the website and my order confirmation all say the date of delivery is the 3rd of March, same as the release date world-wide. I checked the status since early and called a few times and they said the expected date is the date that is shown on the order status.</p> <p> </p> <p>I have been waiting at work (since it was to be delivered there) till now and still nothing. Kept being assured that the customer service guys will 'escalate' the matter and still nothing. I have now gone home because I am very dissappointed.</p> <p> </p> <p>What is the point of a preorder if you cannot deliver it on time?</p> <p> </p> <p>I am strongly considering cancelling everything and just taking my business elsewhere and buying the thing in store since the whole point of preordering is now rendered moot.</p> <p> </p> <p>Very dissappointing service. This is now the 3rd time in less than 2 months that I am having issues with Takealot.</p>
