Default Where to get dom 3?

So, I've decided of purchasing dom3, but I came across a problem, how do I get it easily?

I bought dominions 2 a few years back from a bookstore, under the desk, heard about it from a friend (talk about underground stuff!) Loved it.

I tried dominions 3 and it rocks, but do I really have to order it from the us? Are there any european retailers? Or with good luck retailers in Finland? How did possible finns get it on this forum?

I tried googling, but only place I found it from was shrapnel games' own netstore.

I don't own a credit card or a paypal account, that's how international payment usually goes right?

Sorry if this was the billionth thread of same kind here, I tried searching.

Thank you.

There is also a possibility for mail-in cheques in the store. It feels strange, but it actually does work, I bought Dom2 that way (from Finland). For Dom1 I had a friend with credit card. Etsivä löytää.

I believe some game stores did have Dom2 in retail, but not sure about 3. Or whether they would have it anymore.

Shrapnel Games' own store is the place where most of the Finns got the game.

You might have some luck in shops specializing in Linux or Mac. The same CD works in all operator systems. Computer book shops also might have it; I got my Dominions II from DataClub several years ago, but they don't have Dom3.

Or just do what Atul did, same thing I used to do. Just give the money to one of your parents, or someone you know with a CC, and have them order it for you. They can even put your address for the shipping.

I bought Dom2 directly from Shrapnel with a check by mail. I placed the order, mailed the check, and received the game shortly after they received it.

By the time I bought Dom3 I had a debit card.

There is also Tux Games...

...but it looks like they are temporarily sold out.

Thanks for all the replies, I'm gonna try to get my friend to order it with his card, bit difficult tho cause he's in the army.

I need to agitate my old Dom2 friends to get it too.
