Default august mistake?
I ordered Pets from Amazon, and this is what came up after I ordered.

Items not yet shipped:
Delivery estimate: August 3, 2006 - August 7, 2006

* 1 of: The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack

Is this a mistake? I know it's not coming out until the 17th of October, says Maxis.

But Amazon says:
Availability: This item will be released on October 3, 2006. You may order it now and we will ship it to you when it arrives. Ships from and sold by Amazon.com.

What's going on?

I'd guess it's just a default delivery estimate. For example, if you ordered something that was available *now* it might ship between those dates.

LOL, Maxis isn't even done making this expanson yet! It wouldn't be done so shortly after they only announced it!

Yeah, its probably like discord said - a standard waiting time. Or it could have been for another game or something, and they forgot to change the page? :P
Either way, I doubt you'll get it until october

Just hope that you don't end up with Unleashed from Sims 1.

I'm going to cryogenically freeze myself until October.
So it will seem like August to me, when I wake up, only a few days will have passed in my mind.
Suckers!!

Maxis states in their official press release announcement that it ships OCt 17. so amazon made a mistake on the date, the delivery confirmation email is a automated estimate that is failing to take the pre-order time into consideration
#19 Old 9th Aug 2006 at 12:17 AM
Haha, discordkitty already said that in the fourth post in this thread...
