I know but I only use paypal on ebay. Can't say I had any problems with deliveries either unless I count one ebay rookie, sent me something with Fedex, disaster! |

Yeah, can't say I have any experience with that. But I see how it can be hard for them, basically it's your word against mine and somebody is lying, not easy to determine who that is.

I had proof of the code being sent and all that. I talked to the person online, told them to look at the records, they pay 100 bucks for something it gets sent, then 5 minutes later exactly it's an unauthorized payment?
And on top of that, when paypal investigates they wait to hear from both sides, I was in constant contact, the other guy never even bothered to contact paypal after he filed the claim. |

It is strange, maybe he worked at paypal  that would be funny. |

To be honest, I don't ever recall an official announcement saying that they would. Just some vague forum post to which I never even saw a link.

getting the servers up and running if retail street date broken? i think thats dumb. "Heres your pack of borderlands dear gamestop" "will you break street date?" "of course" "all right then we get the activation servers up and running"
i dont think they give a shit about broken street dates.
if they break the street date we are all fuckin then.

Well you can say it was never officially announced, it was on the justin.tv livestream, i think it was on brandon's channel, anyways a dev joined and we had a pretty big Q&A, the quote itself is real, but obviously, as it turns out, he spoke with no authority.

Then perhaps it was taken out of context? Perhaps instead of "We will unlock the servers if there is enough demand" it was actually "well, I'd like to unlock the servers early if there is enough demand.. but...." etc etc

Imagine buying milk in a store with a lock&timer that opens it after one week when the milk turns sour.

Don't care who is responsible, maybe gearbox ordered them to do it. No reason not to flip the switch on the server and release the game, after all why did the games arrive much earlier then the activation date, they are responsible for that could have distributed them 2 days before activation date not one week.

looks like the complaining is getting somewhere.
A 2K games responded on their forums and at least said they were looking into the matter.
Then someone posted this in the official Gearbox Borderlands forum:
"If that community manager doesn't come through, and the game isn't unlocked tomorrow, you can post your complaints here. If you're a US citizen, that is. See, selling someone a product that intentionally is designed not to work is what's known as fraud. If they don't fix this, complaining to the FTC is about the best way to wake them up.
Here's some information you'll find useful in the process.

Any confirmation if it will require a legit cd-key to work with on-line co-op?

I always get a laugh out of the 17 year old wannabe lawyers that pop up Every time something doesn't go there way. And no Big Gun, not referring to you, you merely quoted someone else. Long and short of it, it is Not fraud, the game has not been released. Otherwise, following the same train of thought, everyone in the US can sue Steam for Every pre-purchased and preloaded game.
As to 2K "looking into it", well I would say that was a nice meaningless statement to make seeing as there are only 2 working days until the game Does release and then this is all moot.
