I usually preorder from Amazon if I'm really anticipating a game because I have prime so it guarantees same day delivery and they normally have some bonus thing that I'll either keep or sell on Ebay. Like I sold the LoU artbook and GoW Ascension statue for $40 each on ebay so the Collector's Editions only ended up costing $40 and I got those sweet steel cases and season passes. GTA5 I got the CE preordered so I get same day delivery. I ordered Beyond from Gamestop because they had an actual GAMEPLAY bonus of 30 minutes which is usually the only incentive that will make me switch from one retailer to the other. If it's plastic crap I don't care which is why I got the GTA edition with just the bonus codes and steel case that's only $20 more instead of the one with all the useless physical crap that's $150.

So wait. Let's say a game's release date is on the 20th. Does Amazon actually ship on the 18/19th to get to you on the 20th? Or do they ship on the 20th?

They ship it early cause it's always on my doorstep on release day if I preorder. Never been late for me though I've only preordered 3 games from there since I got prime last year (Sly, GoW CE, LoU CE)
