No Collectors Boxed Sets For Australia
 

Spoke to Ubisoft Head Office today and they stated that they will not be supplying any Collectors or Boxed Sets for Australia!:evil: You can contact Ubisoft on 02 85871800. Sorry about the bad news, get your overseas orders in quick

WTF?? that's &*!! $#*! :mad:

that means $100 (on top of purchase price) at least, to ship it in... < grumble, grumble, stomp, grimace, FFS whinge, throw arms in air, more grumble >

that sucks. let's make a fuss. don't they want to sell this bloody product or what?

Seriously, does Ubisoft ever make a good decision? This is pathetic.

Even trying to post on the ubi forum is a mess.I cant understand these guys.

Yeah and they reported an operating profit loss of $55.5mil for March 2010!

If they spent less money on crappy protection systems that, lets be honest, don't work, then they may actually turn over a profit, keep paying customer's happy and maybe be able to put more $$$ into better development of their in house titles and GIVE US AUSSIES THE FRIGGEN COLLECTOR EDITION!

But I know there's some department manager or CEO at UBI looking for ways to try and justify their job by concocting a smoke screen on paper that they can present to their stakeholder which says "hey we lost money but we're on track to make a profit "in the near furture" as we winning the in pirated software war."

Some people just can't admit they're wrong.

Well! Damn!

Given the choice I would have prefered to put my money through a local company, But I would rather have the boxed copy. It seems a bit short sighted by Ubi Australia.

Cheers and thanks for the heads up.

I would rather bye the box copy than down loading it. I hate down loading games it takes to long, the box give 1 hr installing and patching and your playing.
Down loading you waiting 6 or more hour then may have a power outage or some so you may have to re down load the 6hrs again, it a pain in the sun dont shine

You would think that someone at Ubisoft Australia could pick up the phone and get the warehouse to send a few sets sent out for sale through their Ubishop. Apparently not! So, what are our alternatives? Can anyone suggest a reliable UK site or similiar, boostep.com looks like a possibility. Must be a way to sort something out.:)
