I hate to keep bugging you John, I just DL'ed WITP, will SS be available, it's not listed in the store?

Look in the Strategy section. Think the site is got some caching issues.

I'm 65% through the download.

Grell,

We're still working on all the non-US stores, but it will be up soon.

Beautiful Erik!

I'll wait!

Erik, in case it's a problem and I know I jumped the gun ... just for your info in case it matters.

The order :

4.0.0 1 Digital Download/CD on Demand Digital River Can$ 53.37

Not Starshatter ... just 4.0.0

I got it fine, just the invoice is not got the proper name.

Thanks, yep we spotted the 4.0.0 problem, it's on their fix list. Glad to hear it worked for you, I think we're very close.

Damn! It's not there... I have to wait [:(]
No StarShatter for Europe, nor for UK... yet.

Please answer this: besides the digital download, can I already order the boxed game?
I don't really want to wait August to buy SS in stores... and considering italian lame distributors that August would easily become September and I'd still have to be lucky to find SS anywhere before October............ (no kidding)

Can I order the box online now? Please?
Thank you very much.

Ciao [:)]

Bartender, I'll have two of whatever that man under the table was drinking... [8D]

Sorry, the only options right now are Direct Download and CD delivery. Box delivery won't be available at all until August. My apologies, we have to work with Digital River's schedule on this one.

On the positive side, we're in the final stages on the UK/Euro store. The Canadian and US stores are fully updated.

No need to apologize [:)]
I think I understand the situation.
After all, things like this are complex to handle and require time and efforts.

Well, everyone waited for years... I can wait a month or two [;)]
(I want the box! [:D])

Let's enjoy the demo some more =)

Best regards and good night (03:00 am here)

Erik,

You really MUST get the VAT sorted on the UK/Euro store. I mentioned this regarding CotD a while ago, but nothing seems to have changed.

Euros (unless in a business context, when VAT can be reclaimed) expect the headline price to be VAT inclusive - i.e if it SAYS "£24.99" I PAY £24.99 NOT £29.37. I would have bought the game anyway of course, but sooner or later someone coming "cold" to Matrix is going to bitch like hell about this, and have every right so to do. I only noticed the extra charge once the download had already started.

You need to look at the VAT in considering your ".99" headline price. For example, with VAT at 17.5%, the price would be £29.99 gross, £25.52 net, £4.47 VAT.

Hertston,

Thank you, I'll forward this on. Did you notice at all that the store mentions that VAT will be included and offers a detailed VAT receipt? Perhaps making that more obvious would help in the short term?

Regards,

- Erik

Hehe.. no, I didn't.... always read the small print [;)] I'd only say in my own defence that it is the middle of the night here, and I'm not at my sharpest [:D]

In a way though, it emphasises my point - it just isn't something we look for. VAT inclusivity is just assumed for non-business purchases.
