RA, I'm in now the same condition as you. On Friday I checked my UPS tracking, only to see the dreaded "delivery exception." A call to UPS cleared it up... After going fine through three warp points (err... UPS hubs), my SE IV package was put on the *wrong truck* here in town. Aieee! So, it will be Monday before I get mine (no fault of Shrapnel's, and the UPS lady was nice and apologetic). Oh well, I'm used to early-week game arrivals disrupting my wake-up/work schedule....

...at least you're getting yours. I pre-ordered. I recieved an e-mail confirming my order (weeks ago). Now, no e-mail from shrapnel or malfador and no package. I believe my CC was billed but need to confirm...

Anyone else seem to have been "skipped" as I have ?

I ordered my copy Thursday and got it Friday by UPS overnight. Shrapnel did a great job. Sorry your game is mia.

Be happy at least UPS overnight exists for you. I can't belive there is no UPS shipping to Canada offered...

Well, if you'd pay the drivers in real money instead of just offering them beer, bacon, and furs, maybe that would change... Actually, I've ordered a couple of PC games *from* Canada that were no longer available in the States, as well as some SF paperbacks, and was quite glad to get them. Didn't use UPS, just ground post, but it only took a bit over a week each time. Sorry things haven't gone as well for you, but I'm glad to have Canada as a northern neighbor. Besides, this only adds to the mystical lustre of SE IV and means that you'll have less waiting for the first patch (already announced) .

Patience and Maple Leaf Power, oh former British colony (like us)!

Thnx rich. I sent shrpnel an e-mail with a copy of my order from Chips & Bits Inc. I realize now I only recieved an order summary and not a confirmation. I'm checking with C&B and may have to simply re-order. DOH I'm a newbie at Online ordering

I ordered on 10/24 but I've yet to receive my copy... or get any sort of notice from shrapnel about my order since the confirmation email which I got the same day... I even emailed shrapnel's 'mall' about my order & haven't heard back from them... Seeing as how I've already been waiting a long time I'm starting to get annoyed...

On the other hand I don't understand how preordering can save you any money as I paid $39.99 just like it lists to buy it right now, but I ordered mine well before the release date... sigh...

I'm glad most of you have received your copies, but I just a bit frustrated that mine doesn't seem to be coming...

Me too. Where is my game?!@# Yesterday I ordered _another_ copy from chips and bits because they offer 2 day shipping to Canada but they did not send it out yet...eek. Now I'm hoping one of the two will show up before the weekend.

I'm in the same boat...I emailed Shrapnel sunday and got no response.
