Rewarded FREE expedited shipping not valid on BLUE GOW4 bundle @ microsoftstore.com

Hello. My day one console bricked after the latest preview build (November 4, 2016) as referenced

here

Console bricked after failed System Update stuck at 0%. #BlackScreenofDeath

...and I saw that Xbox Live Rewards was offering FREE expedited shipping on the purchase of an Xbox One S from microsoftstore.com. I spent 30 minutes by myself and with MS chat only to find out that the only shipping option for the Blue Gears of War 4 Xbox
One S bundle is standard shipping.

The excuse given by the support agent was that since this Blue console is limited in quantity they cannot ship Overnight or Expedited.

It is extremely bizarre that limited quantities of a product somehow being prevent it from getting shipped overnight or 2 day delivery versus ground once the order has entered processing/fulfillment.

This is something that should be stated on the product page and rewards promotion page or addressed by allowing it to be shipped faster since the only terms on the promotion is that it's a new console purchase of the S, that you haven't purchased an S before
and that it's not a pre-ordered console and is in stock. Even people not using this coupon code would likely want to be able to ship the console faster than standard/ground shipping.

The Blue Gears of War 4 Xbox One S bundle does not appear to fall outside of those terms.

Never received codes for Gears of War collection

I purchased Xbox S Gears of War 4 bundle.
https://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msaus/en_AU/pdp/Xbox-One-S-Gears-of-War-4-Bundles/productID.506...

Downloaded the game several weeks ago.

Have played Gears of War 4 online on 19/12/16.

How do I download the rest of the Gears of War collection for free? They are not showing up for free on the Store.

 

Can't imagine they're going to release it before the 6th/7th. Shipping ETAs vary and sometimes they arrive sooner than expected. So, if they ship it out before release date and arrives before the 6th/7th, then that's a big no no. I'd like to assume you'll
receive it a few days after release date.
