Default Official sellers

Due to the fact I have problems with unofficial sellers I would like to get the game from official sellers..

Now the price for the game already is a bit highish $55 but ok.. but that gamersfront shop also need another $11.50 to ship it to the netherlands and that is really going a bit over the top for a game for me really.

Are there other official sellers (or at least trustworthy) that don't ask 66.5 combined for a game that is not that graphically advanced

yeah I know I'm *****ing a bit about the cash but wtf if I only paid like half of this for oblivion then this is a bit overpricing the game

I got mine on Amazon for $49.99 and free shipping. The kicker was it shipped out of the Amazon warehouse 4 miles from my house. Instant gratification ftw.

Enter "Dominions 3 store" in google for some shops... Here are a bunch of german ones, sorted by unit price:

http://www.pseudonym.org/shop/articl...minions-3.html
http://www.ixsoft.de/cgi-bin/web_sto...LDO0300BX.html
http://www.linux-onlineshop.de/produ...awakening.html
http://www.linux-discount.de/Store/sp99/SP99-03T-EN

Maybe you can get the VAT back from your order? But the Amazon.com deal really sounds very good, to be honest.

I bought mine from http://www.tuxgames.com/, they're in England so perhaps shipping would come to less? Not sure if they have it in stock though, or what the current price is.

You might just try looking in your local game store too. I'm pretty sure that here in the US, you can buy it over the counter. I know you could buy Dom 2 that way here.

66.5 US Dollar = 46.85045 Euro


You won't get it cheaper from anywhere in the EU, I'm sure.
Simply order 2 or more games and shipping costs will be considerably lower per piece

This post is completely offtopic. ;p

You know, it's kinda funny that the price of Dominions 1 (and 2) hasn't gone down AT ALL since the days they were new.

Well, same's technically true for D3 (it wasn't released yesterday), but it's excused because it's the newest installment of Dominions, it has great support (in the form of massive patches, helpful people in the community etc), a very much alive community and so forth - D3 has a lot going for it. I bought it like I bought all the earlier Dominions games because I knew it'd be awesome, and so it is. But... Is anyone actually BUYING D1 or 2 anymore, to even try out the series? Especially with those prices? I don't think D1 and D2 are quite worth the amount they used to be when they were released. We are, after all, at Dominions 3 now!
