Purchase Dom2 in Europe
 

Does anybody know of a possibility to purchase the game in Europe?

If not, maybe there are some Germans around, who consider ordering it from Shrapnel, but do not comply with the methods of payment. If so, we could order several boxes at once and save some post & package money.

Where in Germany? I know the game is available in Ulm... no, wait, I think that's backwards http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Although this seems like a logical place to post this question, you might have better luck here:

http://www.shrapnelgames.com/cgi-bin...ubb=forum;f=67

Shrapnel Games sells Dominions, and that's the forum to ask them questions about buying stuff, while this forum is filled more with fans and the developers (who may or may not know).

P.S.

Don't believe what the game designers tell you!
Ulm resp. Germany is not inhabited by stocky people! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif

Re: Purchase Dom2 in Europe
 

Being stocky is good (+2 HP), it's the low magic resistance you should worry about.

I believe that www.tuxgames.com is located in Great Brittain but it is quite hard to make out since it's an Online shop.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I just tryed to order Dominions 2 from Tuxgames and got the following message:
"These games are only for use with the Linux operating system"

Any other idéa?

Maybe the developers could confirm that there is only one CD for all the platforms?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Sence Shrapnel are a US company so the custom vill add 25% tax + a fee. It will approximately cost $60 to get it here is Sweden. If i can get it for the same price from a EU reseller i avoid the Swedish tax and custom fee. See why i want it buy it from a EU reseller?

Have a look here:

Sure, It's the same CD for all platforms.

Re: Purchase Dom2 in Europe
 

Adressing Germans and our neighbors, who are looking forward to buy Dom2 I found a Online-reseller, who offers Dom2 for 49,50 EUR:
http://ixsoft.de/

For Europeans p&p range from 5,95 to 16,95 depending on where you live.
Date of availability: 6.12.03

Re: Purchase Dom2 in Europe
 

Ouch, that's expensive.

I paid 40? in total including delivery, from Shrapnel, but then again, I preordered with a friend of mine to save shipping costs.

German here, too. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">This isn't always true. If you order Global Priority from us and the package weight is under 16 ounces (1 copy of DOM II is 12 ounces) then it goes as documents and there is no customs fee.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I just got the latest issue of a French mag (PC4War) with an ad in it for a (French) store that seems to sell Doms2. They do mail-order, and ship to Europe, if one believes their ad.

They have a Website (www.store4war.com), advertise the game at 49 Euros, and shipping inside Europe seems to cost 8 Euros for orders under 80. I've never ordered anything from them, and have no personal interest in them. Just providing a pointer to those in need...

Don't hesitate to buy from them ! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
But honestly IMHO there isn't much point in buying the game in Europe on the Web rather than direct from Shrapnel's : you need a CC anyway, and with 1 Euro now over 1.2 $ it's cheaper... (maybe you'll gain a couple days for delivery, but that's all)
