Thanks for the response.
Unfortunately, like I said customs usually doubles the cost of games from the US for me.
I leave this message letting you know that I won't purchase this game or any other from Shrapnel without a downloadable option.
Nothing personal to you, rather actually, an attempt to help you convince your distributor that customers are indeed being lost because of this.
There could be reasons beyond their control - if not, hopefully this message might help to add the option.
