chris talpas Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 Woohoo! Guys, The mail carrier has just dropped off my copies of Combat Mission. It is in the GTA! As an added bonus, I was not dinged by the GST or Canada Post handling fee. There is Hope! I preordered May 16th 2000 Postmarked June 23rd A very happy Chris [This message has been edited by chris talpas (edited 06-29-2000).] [This message has been edited by chris talpas (edited 06-29-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaffertape Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 YAAAY! There is hope for us all!!! I KNEW there was a reason why the Billy Bragg show got cancelled tonight - it was so I could play CM! Well, that is if I'm part of today's Toronto equation. GAFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris talpas Posted June 29, 2000 Author Share Posted June 29, 2000 Boris, Yes I lucked out. No taxes or duty. I sincerely hope you all get it today as well. It looks like it went out with the last bunch according to the final shipment update of Steve (or was that Charles?). They stated all orders had gone out by the 22nd. That is the ship date indicated on the package. The postmark from Williston is dated the 23rd. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There certainly is no duty to be collected. Combat Mission is a US-made product, and is therefore covered under the Free Trade Agreement. ------------------ -- Toad Ontario, Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stodge Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 Maybe they felt guilty for holding the game up so long at the border while they played it, that they didnt charge you? Ya lucky bugger! Where's mine!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shriker Posted June 30, 2000 Share Posted June 30, 2000 >There is Hope! >I preordered May 16th 2000 >Postmarked June 23rd Bloody 'ell ! I preordered mine on April 11 and haven't received mine (I live about 2 hrs from where you do (You're in Toronto, right?)). If the preorders were sent out in the order they were received, I shoulda received mine before you methinks. ..not that I'm complaining... Normally I'm a very patient guy, but after reading through the chatter on here, I'm starting to catch the impaitence fever! -"please arrive before the long weekend" Shriker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
