Right. But in the meantime just kill file me so you won't be subject
to any unwanted responses from me.

Damn, those Mercedes SLK's have a delivery time of about 2 years. I think,
I steal one until my own copy arrives...

Are you actually trying to make the Internet a place for kids?
It's not, and (hopefully) never will be...

Ahh, quite. But the supply is not restricted... build number are not
limited.... we're talking about half-assed non-consecutive release dates.

I'm sure not goign to spend excess $$$s on UPS or fedex to buy from the
states, either.

May a *** virus be included in the warez version and your hard drive catch
fire.

Price wise, as pretty much always, US game prices are the same as UK prices,
like for like. IOTW, $35 = 35. So actually as always we get ripped off. I
have bought a couple of games from the states, and with shipping they only
cost me as much as they would here. I bought Viper Racing, 4 months before
ot came out here, and SCGT a couple of weeks before here. Actually had that
one on pre-order for over a month. Guess i'm just too impatient.
