Archonsod - 20 GBP Import duties are supposed to be due on everything valued over 20 GBP which is not a gift. I guess that your game was less than that or Customs missed one.

Aaagh. Still nothing out there in the UK except bizarrely a Linux only stockist.

I'd be very grateful if anyone who is trying to import direct into the UK will post their experiences of Customs charges and stoppages when their game arrives.

If customs are letting some through then I will risk ordering direct myself.

Thanks.

I'm assuming you mean Tuxgames, who have carried all the Dominions titles, including PPP. They will have the same version of Dominions 3 as offered at our store - all three installations on one CD.

Oh nice, I've just asked about this in a previous thread. Thanks for the infos. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Hi,

I have pre-ordered and live in the UK. If my order gets processed today then it should be Tuesday or Wednesday that it gets to me, barring a customs intercept.

Will tell you what happens.

Going by the fact that shipping of pre-orders will take until Thursday 5th October - and I only ordered on Monday means I probably won't get the game until the 10th or so at the earliest.

Wow, that could be the answer. There is no mention on their site that the game is Windoze compatable, but now I've emailed them to confirm the Windoze version is on the disk too.

Meanwhile I'm waiting to hear how GamerMan12 gets on. It could be cheaper to order direct IF HbloodyM Customs are asleep. So thanks to you both, it's appreciated.

Tuxgames have not even placed an order for Dom3 yet,according to Tim Brooks.
