Hey guys and girls

So this week we have been working behind the scenes to get the testing phase of our latest project up and running.

Basically, we are launching an online games store.

Our objectives are simple: excellent service and good pricing.

Please feel free to try the shop out, you can find it here: http://mygamingshop.co.za/

Stock is still limited, and we are still testing our systems.

We do have a couple of copies of Dragon Age 2, Rift, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Mafia 2 in stock.

You can get R200 off any purchase by entering "mygaming" into the voucher box when checking out.

I just bought Dragon Age 2 PC for R129 :D

Update

The voucher codes are now worth R100

Could you not take pre-orders Tinman? So that you know how much to order?

DenSweeP
11-03-2011, 11:43 AM
I also think you should list more games with the option to backorder them once they have been paid for. Will generate more sales this way also.

ie list games like Borderlands for instance and tell people it will take x days to arrive. I'm really quite keen on getting Borderlands GOTY edition including the DLC. Can you not make a plan please?

Ja guys, give the n00b king a break :p. The site has only just started, so there is obviously still a lot to be added and all that :)

Dan
11-03-2011, 03:01 PM
Geez, easy kids, I'm sure the stuff will be added as it becomes available. Demanding ain't gonna make it happen any faster.

Anyway, I'm still occasionally having the same issue as syco with the fatal error. Trying to replicate the problem now.

Consider it positive pressure! hahaha!

But in all honesty, I love the look and feel of the site. I'm sure there will be one or two small niggles, but those will be sorted fairly quickly I imagine.

So the free coupon we got, how long will it last? Wanna wait for more content, but if it's a use it or lose it situation, assassins creed or a t-shirt might be the only option lol.

I think just the T-Shirt remains. Assasins is gone.

So i tried buying Bulletstorm earlier and it kick my order twice, something about 3d secure not available for the CC transaction... Weird... Yeah try again when i wake up but doubt there will be copies left...

Just thought id let you know...

Wyvern
16-03-2011, 09:00 AM
Ive had that issue as well, I need to phone the bank tho cos what happend to me is I got a new CC since my old one expired, but now I cant update the info of the new card so I cant buy anything online with my CC.

Btw Tinman are you getting more Rift in?

ZAP_Tech
16-03-2011, 09:24 AM
the card doesnt expire until 2013 so i don't it that... mmmh.. i think i am going to try now i see there is one left.

16-03-2011, 09:27 AM
Still doing the same, weird... Think i am going to need a different card...

problem comes in with 3d secure itself.

this is what happens:
according to the great beast i need to update my 3d secure password after successfully using the original one, then i do update, then transaction fails. 3d secure fails. try transaction again, same thing, same fail.

i never ever had 100% smooth dealings with 3d secure. imho it's not customer or "cart" friendly. only solution i've found to the above one is to yet again make another 3d secure account on my master CC. (cause this is what the helpful helpdesk as well suggested.)

MrG
16-03-2011, 07:06 PM
hmm. sounds annoying. luckily I havent experienced any issues as of yet with 3d secure. Used it a few times now.

i really really really don't know why it happens. it's not like i don't get the "original" one wrong, it's when either it say fail for some stupid reason or then it all of a sudden must update password, when that completes, transaction fails.

/sigh

maybe i should apply for vesa rather.

MrG
16-03-2011, 07:19 PM
When I bought something via the store a few days ago it didn't actually ask me to enter my password come to think of it. It wanted me to recreate my password and then asked me to verify my details. ID number etc. Interesting....

It already had my username locked in.

Tinman
17-03-2011, 12:49 AM
Sigh. We tried really hard to get around having to use 3D Secure, but it is a new standard, and as annoying as it is, it does ultimately provide another layer of security for customers. Unfortunately, there is not a thing we can do if it's acting wonky. :(

ZAP_Tech
17-03-2011, 01:04 AM
Its okay i guess, i would like to shop at mygaming, it make me look a around way less... I just wait till my mastercard is working again and try with that.

I ask because it says one left in stock, but when you choose five it says not enough stock left to place the order...

we reinstalled the shop to upgrade to a new version of the software we are using.

It always happens, you research the software for months, make a final decision and download it, install it on the server, do some testing, create a few test accounts and BAM they release a new version of the software:rolleyes:

So Crysis 2 will only be up for grabs next week? So there's no point in me sitting at my PC all day hitting refresh in my browser, to be among the few who will get a copy? ;)

Is it possible to arrange for orders outside of SA, to other SADC countries such as Namibia?

We will have to look into this, currently I'm afraid not.

R70 for this kinda service it is beyond worth it. Had my order waaay within 17 hours after I ordered it. Friend and I both had our orders before like 9am the morning after ordering,... that even beats Kalahari.net's "release date" delivery for pre-orders and their "24 hour" delivery.

To answer your question, you can pay upfront or you can choose EFT as your payment method. Then you will be required to pay a week before the game is released as this is when we place our final order with the distributor.

Hey guys and girls

So this week we have been working behind the scenes to get the testing phase of our latest project up and running.

Basically, we are launching an online games store.

Our objectives are simple: excellent service and good pricing.

Please feel free to try the shop out, you can find it here: http://mygamingshop.co.za/

Stock is still limited, and we are still testing our systems.

We do have a couple of copies of Dragon Age 2, Rift, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Mafia 2 in stock.

You can get R200 off any purchase by entering "mygaming" into the voucher box when checking out.

I just bought Dragon Age 2 PC for R129 :D

Update

The voucher codes are now worth R100So... i haven't been keeping up with this thread since it was started. Are the days of voucher codes being handed out long gone?

Hey Simon

Thanks for the feedback. Just been swamped with E3 at the moment. Regarding your request, we will typically focus on the big titles and pre-orders, as ordering less popular stuff is likely to land us with unsold stock. So in cases like yours, it will be best to go to BT/Kalahari, for now. Glad you got what you were after :)
