finalcut Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Received mine today in an opened package! The tin box was all dented to hell, but the disk and manual are intact. Guess the guys at the post office were using this one for target practice. The box is dented because it is made from pieces of an actual Sherman that saw action during Normandy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempered Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 The box is dented because it is made from pieces of an actual Sherman that saw action during Normandy. Then their loved ones have my sympathy. No way the crew could have survived. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerner Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Yup, got mine today too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ivan Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I received mine today in Phoenix. I ordered on March 10th. There is no activation code on the box or manual, you find it on the Battlefront site under Account and then your order information for the game. It really does look very nice! I do wish it came with a cheat sheet with all the keyboard shortcuts that I could mount next to my monitor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sluggo337 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Just got my email for order status changed to shipped. First time I ever got one of those. How long does it take to recieve the Steel box after getting the email? I got my shipped notification on the 18th. And the box came today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkmek Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Got my shipped notification and received the Steel Box here in Austin today. Be careful closing the box, if the hinge is forward, you could damage your disc. Luckily I did not, but I see how it could happen. Good to have a hard copy manual. Font is too small or my eyes are getting old. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I got mine today as well in Raleigh. I don't recall the post office ever being this quick. It usually takes about 5 days from something out of town here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Emrys Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Out of interest for the chaps in the UK, will it likely fit a standard letter box? I was rather hoping it would arrive before tomorrow but now it seems unlikely. I'm away for a couple of weeks and will miss the post! Can you leave a Hold Mail request with your PO? I do that whenever I am going to be out of town, and then give them a call when I get back to resume deliveries. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertram Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Kind of wondering why it takes longer to Groningen then to Amersfoort... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southpaw Samurai Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 I'm kind of wondering why it takes longer from a USA send off to Minnesota than it does to the Netherlands. Given the weather we've been having in the States, my Steel Box probably got swallowed by a tornado on the way up the country.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikko H. Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Here at Helsinki, Finland, I got today mail from the post office that I've got mail from Battlefront.com -- but I have to declare it first. Fortunately the Finnish customs have a web service I can use for declaring. All fine and dandy, but after finishing I got the message that the customs have to process my declaration and they will notify me by e-mail how the process unfolds. AAAAAARGH! BUREAUCRACY, WORSE THAN THE NAZIS! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
