There are several other threads. They have been pushing back the release date. If they realized they made a price mistake, I don't think they would have done that. Others believe they will push the release date back until we all cancel, but I don't think that makes a ton of sense since Overstock can just cancel for us if they did in fact make a price mistake.

This seems to be Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game, for those of us scratching our heads....

I'm in a similar boat with Amazon--no release date, etc. They've made good on my other stuff, so I'll just wait. If I didn't have such a good price locked in, I'd cancel.

Those non-game web stores often have delays on games -- I think they might be a low priority for distributors or something. I ordered a couple of games through Deep Discount a few months ago and am still waiting. (I've ordered games from them before, and have had waits, but not like this.)

I ordered this on Jan.3 and was charged on my card. The ship date has been pushed back from original Jan28 to now Feb. 28. I emailed my concerns about shipping date and they basically said, that happens and youll have to wait, or cancel. At that price, Im sittin on it.

Ditto here, I think they will stick to the price, otherwise they would have already canceled.

Yeah, I ordered two copies, paid via PayPal. They debited my PayPal account within hours, but it's been weeks and no sign that they're shipping. However, my experience with my Amazon Cosmic Encounter order taught me to be patient and eventually the game will ship.

My package arrived today. Inside was "The Spawn of the Sleeper Asylum Pack." Bummer. I would have rather they canceled the order. Here's my chat with Jonathan. I guess I should just take the refund and ship the thing back to them. That's about as good as it gets.
...
you: the order was supposed to be "Call of Cthulhu Card Game Core Set (Cards) "
you: but the package came with a tiny one deck thing that says "Call of Cthulhu the card game 'the spawn of the sleeper asylum pack'"
Jonathan: I am sorry that you have received the wrong item, I will check and see in what way I can help you today.
...
you: I know the price seemed super low for what it was supposed to be, but I definitely didn't expect to get this asylum pack
you: I was trying to buy the "Core" game
Jonathan: I can certainly understand the way you feel. Even I would have felt the same if I were in your position.
Jonathan: Are you referring to the 'Call of Cthulhu Card Game Core Set (Cards)' purchased on 01-01-2009?
you: Yes, that's the one
you: I'm assuming that's what this delivery was supposed to be. I definitely didn't order "The Spawn of the Sleeper Asylum Pack" which is what was delivered
Jonathan: Thank you for confirming.
Jonathan: Would you please give me 3 - 5 minutes while I check on that for you?
...
Jonathan: I have reviewed your account and see that you order for 'Call of Cthulhu Card Game Core Set (Cards)' but received "Call of Cthulhu the card game 'the spawn of the sleeper asylum pack'' as you said.
you: Yes
Jonathan: Hence I will initiate return on this item, shall I initiate for a refund since this item is currently out of stock?
you: no, i'd still like to get the item.
Jonathan: Eric, I am really sorry, this item is out of stock and we don't know when it will be re-stock as we deal on liquidation business.
you: I ordered over a month ago though. Why take the order if the
overstock doesn't have the product?
you: I mean -- I know the publisher still makes this game.
Jonathan: I can certainly understand the inconvenience caused to you.
you: okay, my kids are asking for me -- I need to go soon. What do we do next?
Jonathan: I apologize for the trouble you are facing with your item and what I can help you is initiate return for a full refund and send you a free return shipping label.
Jonathan: Is that okay with you?
you: Not really. I need to go help my son. I'll try again later/tomorrow. Thanks.
Jonathan: Okay, not a problem, you can contact us anytime.

Just did a track on my package...the weight is 0.347 lbs.
I'm pretty sure the Core Game weighs much more than that...
There's gonna be a lot of upset Overstock.com customers me thinks

I just went to overstock to see status of my order. Now it says Processing expected ship date March 28, 2009. I ordered Jan 3. I wonder how many months they can keep delaying this order.

I complain to them every time they push it back and a few days later I get a notification that my order has been delayed. I think they are morons. No offense to actual morons out there.

I also received an Asylum Pack. I used the Overstock live chat feature to obtain a refund. It took about 10 minutes. They also said I could keep the Asylum Pack. No need to ship back. I had another order in for 2 more that had not shipped. The online associate ensured me that it would ship with the correct product. Despite such assurances, I went head and canceled that order as well.
So, in the end, I'm out some of my time and now have an Asylum Pack for trade which I did not spend any money on. Not, what I expected going in, but since this wasn't a must have game for me. I decided to get out while the gettin is good.
