It seems nobody has it here, in Canada. And most of online shops either don't have it or don't ship it to Canada. I could only find http://shop.game.net in UK. Are there better options and what are experiences with shop.game.net? Thanks in advance, Alex.

I live in Canada and got it from that place (Game UK). It arrived within a week IIRC. I probably get all of my Europe-only game from them in the future. - F50 GT alexti wrote:

Are there better options and what are experiences with shop.game.net? I bought my RBR from that outfit too. Took about 2 weeks to arrive, but it might have been delayed due to the CCRA strike. Of course, only *after* I ordered it from there, I found a link to another, cheaper place called SendIt.com. Here's a direct link to RBR: http://www.sendit.com/game/item/6000000000948 Since I got mine from Game.net, I don't have any personal experience with SendIt.com, maybe somebody else can chime in with their views. Assuming I don't hear anything horrible in the forums or this NG, I think I will give them a try the next time I need to import something. Hopefully their cheaper prices doesn't mean cheaper service. ...Klinn

Got mine from Sendit.com. Low initial price, ridiculously cheap shipping and fast delivery. I will use them for GTR for sure (assuming they don't have a North American release right away). Marc "Klinn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:QBD9d.2748$[email hidden]...

I live in Canada too, and I was just thinking about this for a minute... Ideally, if the game gets released in Canada, I'd LOVE for it to sell as many copies as possible.. so people realize there's a market for this kind of thing here. But, all the hardcores are just buying it from the UK online anyways to get it ASAP. So when the game does come to Canada, who is gonna buy it? I'm not ashamed at all to say that I've been playing a pirated version this whole time, and as soon as it gets released here, they'll have my money!
