As of today still not showing up on the Ubi shop (AU site) or EB games.

And even doing a Australian pages only google search is not real productive.

It is very frustrating. I really want to show my support for Oleg and Co by pre-ordering the Collectors edition, but can't.

I ended up buying ROF from ebay from over seas and it arrived a week or so before it got in the stores over here in WA. If Ubi can't get it's act into gear I may have to do the same for Bob!

Cheers!

Ahh, that familiar feeling as the rough end of the pineapple is applied. Still hoping for something special from EB. Must have that boxed set!

Looks like it will be fairly expensive. The Shogun 2 Total War Deluxe Set is coming in at $169 AUD, hopefully it won't be as much as that. Why are we charged so much especially with the Australian dollar being almost equal to the US dollar?

Exchange rates are not necessarily related to retail prices.

I used to work for Harvey Norman Electrical in NSW back in the 90's.

We were importing electrical goods in Yen -- against which the Aussie dollar was rising, so we were getting them cheaper than ever.

However the Aussie dollar was falling against the US dollar -- so we were able to put all our prices on electrical goods UP by 10% (even though we were importing them cheaper) and blamed the government and the "bad Aussie dollar" for the price hike.

We made a fortune for a while.
