indietrash Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I got it from http://www.elkjop.no - so if there are any other Norwegians in here - this is the site to get it from. it will be far cheaper than getting it from out of the country when you add shipping and all the stupid customs fees. =/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ommerson Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Ordered mine from amazon.co.uk, price € 30,75. No shipping cost from uk to holland, so thats almost €20,- cheaper than the dutch retail (and Steam download-) price of €49,95. Only catch was that I didn't see they don't ship it until november 4th (when using the free shipping option, which I did). Estimated date on my doormat around the 10th or 12th. So a week of agony for my €20,- "profit". I think I can handle that short delay.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andywoods Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 ordered from Shopto at 12 today. It still says they don't have it in stock. Hopefully will see a bit a movement before Wednesday to ensure a Friday delivery (Possibly even Thursday). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter G Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Someone I know has the game legally, lucky people I pre-ordered with ShopTo.net, hoping it comes early, it normally does for my friends, but not me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVS_Gooner4life Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I pre-ordered from a onlineshop here in Sweden (Webhallen) ,hopefully i get it on Friday. It cost £39 which seems pretty cheap compared to some prices other is paying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they really have it legally, then the retailer has released the game early, which they're not allowed to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makollig Jezvahted Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 What shop did they buy it from? If they really have it legally, then the retailer has released the game early, which they're not allowed to do. Some shops in Belgium were selling on Friday (I think they 'forgot' about the release date not being 29/10) Haven't seen any copies yet myself (tried 2 shops). Today is bank holiday; I'll try my luck tomorrow! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braundjoh Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 All of my shopto purchases have come on a thursday or friday. Keep an eye out on wednesday for movement on the site, if they have it in stock on wednesday you'll probably have it on thursday. That's what I'm hoping for, so bored at the moment. Then FM, Fa cup and Black Ops all in the space of 4 days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick_chelsea Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Ok, so now we're approaching that coveted time of the year when people receive their 'dispatched' emails from their pre-order companies.

Lucy :) Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I still haven't pre ordered as I'm going on holiday next Wednesday but I really want it before I go yet I keep putting off pre ordering but at this rate I'll end up paying £29.99 on Tuesday rather than saving a HUGE~!

Braundjoh Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I do hope they dispatch from shopto tomorrow then, although it depends entirely on when they get their stock. If it's not in tomorrow, I doubt they can dispatch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geooorge :) Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Pre-ordered from Amazon, £28 for game and delivery on release day. Thought it was the safest option... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Macklam Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I ordered mine from ShopTo. If as usual with ShopTo it comes early I'll have a look around after installing and have a good think as to whom I want to start with then come Friday patch the game and then start for real. In the meantime I'll carry on with Fallout New Vegas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Pre-ordered from Amazon, £28 for game and delivery on release day. Thought it was the safest option... Good luck with that.

Gypsum Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I've ordered from Amazon. I'd rather go with a company I trust to deliver on time, than risk it with another company for a few quid less or some crappy gift. And in the past I have got pre-ordered games before the release date with Amazon, which is always a nice surprise! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fergusq Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 logged on from work today and steam was charging $39.99 as I had a US IP but would not let me order it to Ireland. Price equates to €28.79 Irish price is €49.99. :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braundjoh Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 If they dispatch tomorrow they should arrive on wednesday. I would be surprise if they do dispatch tomorrow, but someone said they will.
