I guess the Fins do speak English.
Still unsure? Drop them a line and see if they reply.

no offence to the fins! from experience they usually do speak better english than the average ozzie!

i'm just looking for a better known seller.

Same here, torn between options to get CoD in Australia. I saw the boostep pre-order and I'm still not sure about it, it sounds a little bit fishy

So is there some sort of official word that the Collector's Edition will be available to US?

RE: using boostep.com

I'm not worried, weather using VISA or PayPal you can always get your money back. If using a Credit Card always ring the bank who issued the card and lodge a dispute, you'll get your money ... its the law ;)

If it's any reassurance, when I emailed boostep.com I had a reply back on both occasions within 24 hours. The sales department speak very good English and took the time to answer the questions I had asked. Which is more than Ubisoft ever did! I am still waiting, haha, for a reply to my email of several weeks ago asking about the availability of box sets for Australia! Had to call them to get that answer.:-x
And now the stores are getting annoyed because they are still selling copies of IL 2 1946 off the shelves, and they would very much like to have Cliffs Of Dover in stock. I even saw a young kid in a hobby shop buying a model kit of, guess what....., a Spitfire.
Ubisoft have their heads in the sand, which just makes it easier to kick them in the @#*!:-) This is such good therapy.

Steam is a store, and actually takes a higher % of price than retail stores.

So, no more money does not automatically go to the developpers in that case.

When steam acts as both publisher/retailers, they sometimes take 85% of price leaving peanuts to the dev.

Thanks for the info, think I will buy mine there also. Download is NZ$100 in NZ, so only works out about $20 more for collectors edition.

And what case is this? Do you have documented cases? So far I have more confidence in Steam being more beneficial for 1C:Maddox than a game sold off the shelf.

JAMF,

Vev knows of what he says.

Really he does.
