I'm mainly interested in knowing if the Collecters Edition will be for sale in Europe?
And, very important, WHEN?

Rendelius, didn't you hear something about that from Ubisoft?

I want to buy the CE but don't want to wait another month or something like that to get it.
*Sighs deeply* ...guess I can always order in the US and pay more...

I'd also like to know if/when the CE edition of Morrowind will be available in europe and
if not, where is the best/cheapest place to get it from outside of europe.
by the way, can anyone answer any of these questions I have regarding Morrowind?

1. What do you get with the CE version of Morrowind?

2. Will the TES instruction manual be included in the box?

3. How many pages will the Morrowind manual have and will it be in colour?

4. Roughly how many quests/missions will there be in Morrowind?

thanx for the help guys :smile:

I know that UbiSoft will bring out following in Germany:
- the "normal" US-Version with german manual
- the US-CE
- a complete german version
- maybe a german CE

So that's pretty good for an austrian like me I only have to choose one (that'll be the US-CE of course)...

It is very unlikely that the collectors edition of Morrowind will be released in the UK. I dont know why but publishers pretty much never bother to release anything other than the bog standard game in the UK.

If you want it though dont hesitate to buy it from the US, I have bought many games from US companies and had them shipped to the UK without any problem, and there is pretty much no price difference. (You might even get it cheaper)

Could you tell me what websites in the US you buy your stuff from and how much customs/duty tax I'll have to pay?

ta..

I buy from various people. The one I am buying Morrowind from (Ordered it today actually) is http://www.chumbo.com, but thats because they offer cheap shipping in the US (I live there now).

You should go to other sites too like http://www.ebworld.com, http://www.dragon.ca, http://www.mysimon.com and see if they are better for you.

All of the stuff I have ever ordered from the US to the UK has never incurred any taxes, but I think its just pot luck whether or not customs checks your package.

I presume if they catch it they will put on the whole 17.5% VAT. You will most likely get away without paying that but dont quote me on it.

I will probably go pre-order at the gamestop store since Morrowind will arrive at least a few weeks later here in Europe.
http://www.gamestop.com/default.asp

They charge $15,99 to ship it to The Netherlands (Belgium, Germany and the UK also have the same amount of S&H, btw)

Im thinking about preordering Morrowind from either gamestop or the cd-rom shop (cdrom shop delivery is only 1-2 days)
just wanted to know if anyone has ordered stuff from these companys before and if you have what's the delivery/service like?
