Question: Subject: Civilization III

I am living in Copenhagen, Denmark, and I am wondering if you at
EBgames are going to ship the computergame Civilization III Limited Edition Tin outside the USA, because I have pre-ordered the game two months ago from Amazon.com and they now say that they will not ship the game outside the USA. I am going to cancel my order with these bastards, and now I ask, if you are going to sell the game to people here in Europe? Then I will place my order at your fine store.
Thank you for your help.

So what do you get of this information? Perhaps EB will ship the
game to Europe - or what do you think?

That link is to the standard edition, although they do have a page for LE that does not mention any shipping restrictions. Good luck to you! When I tried to create an account, UK was not an option in the 'country' drop-down presumably because www.eb.uk.com exists - although of course that does not list the LE! AAAAARGH!

I feel sorry for you too; it is really so frustrating. If I am not going to have the LE then I will boycott the game - eh, just kidding!
It is so stupid and unfair that the people outside of the USA have almost no chances to get the LE, I really canīt understand why it has to be so... But soon the game will be easy to buy in SE but I want the LE now!

Well.... looks like EB is gonna get my LE order if my order at amazon hasn't slipped through on Nov 1st. Hoping for the best...

Reading La Russo's post, I'm surprised some enterprising American Apolytoner hasn't set up a business ordering the game for desperate Eurocoms - hell, I would have, for a small fee of $5 per game...

Perhaps if EUII comes out significantly earlier in Europe than America, it might be worth a shot....
