I can't wait for my copy :D
I feel for them as well but they aren't quite in a helpless position. Being part of the EU has its benefits, freedom of movement for goods really does help. With the nordic countries,italy,netherlands,belgium,ect all getting the ce in english it means that if you are in the UK you could and you should order the CE from one of their retailers and not a UK retailer.Quote:

UK is such a huge market for games though, why of all places would the UK get short changed?
Anyway Guys got excellent news. Even thought BT has been pretty useless in getting back to me on info concerning the memory band I have confirmation that they will be getting the codes for it. Last night I pm Fernando Melo (Dragon Age Origins Producer) and he confirmed to me that they have been asked to provide BT games with codes for the memory band and guild masters belt. I was really impressed with how fast he responded to my question.

Hi Stefan,
I admit, I don't have a lot of info on RSA, however - we were asked to supply codes to BT Games for Memory Band and Guildmaster's Belt, so I would check with them if that helps.
I'm still putting all the info together for known retailers that are participating in this pre-order program and will put that on the forums as soon as I can wrap that up this week.

Hi Fernando.
I know you are a very busy guy. But while you are checking the info on the different regions and their ce's.ect. Could it be possible for you to try and find out whether we in South Africa get the memory band for preordering as well. I know you guys announced that everyone that preorders get it but when asking at my locally retailers everyone has a different story on whether we are getting it. I tried contacting EA first but the email contact for them at the SA store is the uk support and they told me they have no info on specific regions.
Any info would really be appreciated.
Kind regards
Stefan
Theories goes its more expensive to produce tin cases and maps. Others blame the exchange rate.Quote:

Game is a uk supplier no. Gamestop.de did have it but have apparently sold out of their CE allotment.Quote:

Just in case you missed or misunderstood the link to the Polish (Empik) shop I posted on the previous page... their prices converted to GBP (at today's rates):Quote:

Which means you have quite some countries you could pick. I'm pretty sure some urls will come up the coming days (since the CE is rolled out now in the smaller european countries).
CE (with metal box and cloth map) - around £43 !
shipping: around £15
Total: £58 (which is about the same price the CE costs in the rest of *without* the shipping charges)
Anyone know a cheaper link (including shipping)?
The Polish shop is selling DA in Polish (translated, I imagine). Even the box cover is in Polish and Google Translate:Quote:

Since I have already stated my opinion on UK, I won't do that here again.

Rest of World (yes, incl rest of Europe, Nordic countries, Oz, etc)
- steel book (aka. metal tin), map, etc as per our page.
- English only box & docs
Which means you have quite some countries you could pick. I'm pretty sure some urls will come up the coming days (since the CE is rolled out now in the smaller european countries).
Thanks again :3
