BLSTK Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Outrageous! It would cost me an additional $23 for the hardcopy sent to Canada. WTF? At this rate, it might be cheaper to move to Belgium. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War RaVeN Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 Yes, outrageous! You must pay for the "hardcopy" 23$ I must pay for the download 17$ so stay please in Canada 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLSTK Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I've been to Belgium. And going there would be worth the trip for the beer alone! But I digress. You seem to misunderstand the offer: you will be charged an additional $17 for BOTH the download and hardcopy. The "download only" option is not offered at this time. I hope this helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slysniper Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 People, its the Dollar! Its worth nothing!! Now that was funny:D Of course the dollar seems to be just fine here, as long as you still have a job and can have some of them to spend. Vacations need to be planned to third world countries, thus you can still feel like a filthy rich American. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

War RaVeN Posted February 4, 2014 Author Share Posted February 4, 2014 More strange! I got now a email for ordering the game... but I never gave my fiat via PayPal... leave the fields blank! But... who's says not possible for ordering a download now? https://imageshack.com/i/mkyp8cj 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offshoot Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Where to find that statement? https://imageshack.com/i/mkyp8cj In the pre-orders fine print at the bottom of the screenshot you posted: *You will have to pay for Shipping & Handling since the pre-order comes with a mail component. *If you do not want the mail components of the pre-order or do not want to pay now, please don't pre-order and wait until the game is released, at which time a "Download Only" delivery option will be available 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLSTK Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Decision time, Raven. How will you spend the extra $6 dollars? I know, you could raise a glass to your less fortunate brethren. Failing that, we (Canadians) could apply for charitable status. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bergerbitz Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Well, I just coughed up $78.00 for this lovely bit of stuff in a lovely tin box. At first, I hesitated over the order button but decided to click it anyway. I've been itching for this game since 2002. Heck, these are the only games I buy and the pay-per-play value of the $80.00-ish (gotta remember the exchange rate) is worth it. So, in a few months' time, I reckon it will all work out to 5 cents for every hour spent when I get my greasy mitts on that game. ...unt Ich kenne spiel it nekkid if Ich vants to...ja? Hell, ja. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offshoot Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Maybe correct! But the choice for downloading is available... The possibility is not greyed out ? The only option I see is "Download and Mail". This is not two alternative options - it is only one option. If you buy this you get both a mailed version and a download version. The fine print makes this clear. When a download-only option becomes available the list of delivery options will look like those for their other games: *Download Only *Mail Only *Download and Mail 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Right on the main announcement page: For international customers, additional VAT and customs fees may apply... ...If you do not want the mail components of the pre-order or do not want to pay now, please don't pre-order and wait until the game is released, at which time a "Download Only" delivery option will be available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnart Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Your blaming BF for shipping cost? They are not the post office, or UPS. They are the ones that make the shipping prices, not BF. I had a guy in Germany buy some posters recently, and it cost $35 for the mailing tube from USA to him, and I did not add anything to the shipping cost. Just download it, and back up the installer on CD with a read me of licence code. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenris Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Is this one coming in a tin case a la CMBN? Might have to get a physical copy if that be the case (haha). -F 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Just to chime in... we don't make a penny off the shipping costs. In fact, we lose a little to some countries. Costs have gone up a lot over the years. Try sending something to/from Australia and the US. Talk about some pain in the wallet!
