However, as a result of this, the retailer has issued a text message to anybody who had pre-ordered Diablo III from any of their Australian stores.
"Due to the appointment of an administrator to our business this morning, it is with regret that I inform you all that our stores will not be receiving any stock of diablo 3 (sic). Because of this, we regrettably will be unable to fulfill any pre-orders. Also, we will be unable to refund any deposits paid towards a pre-order of diablo 3. If you need any more info, please email customerrelations@game.com.au"
Australian law says that any company is allowed to not issue refunds for any reason provided. Customers may be refunded in time, but they are at the bottom of a very long list of creditors that need to be repaid first.
Perhaps if you pre-ordered using a credit card, you may have just one action to take here. That action is to contact your credit card company and try to issue a charge back for the amount you paid for your pre-order. There is, however, no guarantee that this will actually work.
