Canadian buyers who are on the fence...

[Richard]

Guys,

As you know we already have distributors in different countries who carry our games. We are also now very close to signing a deal with compusmart to start carrying our titles, but they are on the fence. If you are interested in helping us let them know that folks would love to have a local alternative to buying SE4 in Canada, then you might want to send them an email asking why they don't stock our products http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif .

Just my tip to you guys http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif .

email CompuSmart you say...
consider it done http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Also, stop buy the store themselves and ask them to carry the game. Going in person carries more weight as it can't be brushed off with a delete key.

Richard,

This is good news. Could you let us know the outcome of your efforts on this forum and in the strategic newsGroups? (In case I forget to check one or the other)

I will contact CompuSmart as well.

There is a similar discussion over at Matrix Games about the availabilty of STUN in Canada.
While our market may be small relative to the USA, I think both games may be missing excellent opportunites by not having a Canadian distributor.

We shipped our first shipment to them, but we'll be making a larger announcement next week.

Right now we have:

Chips and Bits
Store 4 War (France)
Strategic Plus (UK)
Compusmart (Canada)

Too bad I already ordered my copy of SE:IV Gold Last month. I might have been able to save some money on the shipping! Oh well...I can still get my rebate for my original copy so I guess it all balances out.
