From what i hear they don't take long at all they try and clear all their outstanding orders every day so

It's realy up to where you live - I've hear people in canada  procaliming to have only had to wait 3 days.

It's a lot quicker to send stuff out of britan than to receive it (inland revenue allways wants their cut)
Errrr !!!!!!! Great Game ---- ?? Dam out of lines

I live in California (West USA), and got my copy after 7 days of waiting.  Of course, out here, the post office doesn't deliver on Saturday, Sunday, or "Columbus Day" (which happened to be on monday).  So 4-5 working days, I guess.  :)

Speaking of, this kicks arse.  I'm sorry, it just does.  I would have posted this thanks sooner, BUT I've been too busy on the game itself.  :)  Thanks to Introversion for this one.  :)
Ever wake up with the feeling that they're out to get you?  Well, it's not paranoia if they really are out to get you:

A nice, secure download would be an incredible godsend for high bandwith/low patience people.  I'd pay a couple extra bucks to be able to download it online AND have a CD shipped to me.

We wanted to do that, but its just a headache.  As soon as you start looking into it in detail it becomes almost impossible to sort out.

Have you thought about doing Paypal?  I recently helped set this up for one of my clients and it's a rather painless process.

Regardless, I'm ordering my copy tonight.  I can't remember the last time I found a game fun enough to purchase. Awesome job :)
