I didn't order from Amazon, I ordered from Bestbuy and I feel a little cheated, I ordered from them over 3 months ago, with "Estimated Time of Arrival: Day of release" and now I found out it is just sitting in Indiana for the last 2 days with a delivery date of 5/16...I am not happy at all.
I pre-ordered the CE from wal-mart a long time ago and they canceled my order, claiming I did not have adequate funds (total bullshit). I physically went to the bank and they said I had enough money and the order would go through but it never did. I ordered another one a few days ago and they still havent billed my credit card or sent any confirmation email. I hate wal-mart. I think they are just going to fuck me over again. It's all a big joke but there is nowhere else I can get a CE. They are holding my game hostage!!!
I'm really agitated now, and I hope the customer rep was full of shit. Pre-ordered the CE on 25th of March. Since 10am this morning my order has been stuck on Shipping Soon. I just got off the phone with the rep and he said, we'll get it to you soon, but unfortunately we don't have any more right now. What the hell, so much for pre-order, release day shipping, and amazon prime, and they charged my account already, I thought they couldn't do that unless it shipped... I think next game release I am going to order from somewhere else. I want to call back, but I better cool down for a bit
Edit: Just got done with online chat with a representative:

Me:I was wondering whether this order for the Diablo III: CE would be shipping today, as I had it pre-ordered, and if not, why am I paying for Amazon Prime and why has the charge for the order been posted to my credit card?5:31:57 PM
Rep:Hello. My name is Rep. I'll be happy to help you today. 5:32:05 PM
Me:Thank you5:32:10 PM
Me:I was wondering if Amazon would be able to fulfill my pre-order. I just talked to a representative on the phone, and he was hard to hear, but it sounded like he was saying the order would not be sent soon5:33:57 PM
Rep:I checked that release day delivery has been applied to your order and it has entered the shipping process. I would suggest you to wait and you'll get the order by March 15.5:34:10 PM
Rep:Within 24 hours, you'll be emailed the tracking number as well.5:34:33 PM
Me:Alrighty, thank you5:34:48 PM
Rep:You're welcome. Is there anything else I can assist you with today? 5:35:07 PM
Me:That should be all5:35:38 PM
Me:Have a good day, and thank you again5:35:56 PM
Rep:My pleasure.5:36:07 PM
Rep:Thanks for visiting Amazon.com. We hope to see you again soon! 5:36:08 PM
Rep:Goodbye and take care. 5:36:08 PM
I guess there's still cause, for hope, but I'm beyond being optimistic

I think you'll be fine, looking at the tracking details of my order, mine sat in "Shipping Soon" for over 4 hours after the fact that it was already shipped. Amazon is just a little slow changing it over to Shipped and giving you a Tracking#. From 8am-4pm it stated Shipping Soon for me, but UPS already had the package by noon.

Man that is jacked up, mine is also stuck on "shipping soon" I just honestly don't know how they could oversell and drop the ball on a title this big, they should have been shipping these freaking things DAYS ago, there is no reason not to.
eh, well at least I won't be missing much. I'm reading the RPS forums (is probably on here too, but this site is much more taxing on my work computer) and apparently the servers are very unstable, and down last I read, over in Europe
Well mine apparently just left Arizona, no clue if it'll actually make it here tomorrow though =/
As to the server instabilities: This was my biggest loathing towards the online only play for D3. We're at the whims of Blizzard to try and get servers they didn't really test for large pops apart from a very small windowed stress test, to actually play the game.

If it left today it should be there tomorrow. Amazon is pretty good with getting stuff to people on release date in my experience. I remember the first time I ordered something from them with RDD. It was Mass Effect 2, I ordered it around 4pm on the monday before it came out and it shipped a few hours later. I was nearly in shock.
Both of my CE copies are in Parsons, KS. In transit.
(Carrier is FedEx, which sucks, they don't deliver to my house till nearly 5, whereas ups delivers around 10am.)
Ha! Opposite for me. It's shipping from IN, so it should actually arrive tomorrow, but its shipping through UPS, and they have never delivered before I leave for work (around noon for second shift)
I am able to track my package now, but the order disappeared from the Your Orders page and about gave me a heart attack, but I was able to get my tracking number by finding the order in payments

Mine arrives tomorrow but is there anyway i could download D3 to have it ready for when my CE arrives?
I'll be watching Southpark, the episode where Cartman freezes himself and goes into the future, to relieve some time on my hands.

No. I'm not. It'll still be here tomorrow. There have been times where a game has said "Shipping Soon" until 3AM the day it was delivered. lol
