Online Retailers That Have CiM Listed in Their Catalogues

[unmerged(252959)]

Yeah, it's early but...better that than late, eh?

Can't see too many of my favourite retailers listing the game yet. The only one I found, actually, was amazon.de (€ 29.99 + free P&P in Germany). Nothing on play.com or amazon.co.uk. Would rather NOT go buy from the high street game shops, always 10-20 Euros more expensive. Although, impatient as I am, I'd like to get the game the day it is released (and yeah, come boast about it on the forums )

Ooh...but now wait a minute! If thehut.com has accurate information...that's just ridiculous -- £ 11.93 for CiM! (+ P&P to countries outside Britain = slower delivery) Can that really be true? :wacko:

Well, it's listed there at 11.93 though pricing errors are possible... However, without Paypal (only credit card) I won't buy anything from a foreign store.

 

[TheCheeseMaster]

I would like to buy it at Amazon.co.uk or game.co.uk. Or maybe Gamersgate if its gonna be sold digitally as well.

 

[chrism2012]

Well, it's already listed here at a really reasonable price, I'm just not sure if I should pre-order it or wait for the first reviews...

Yep, was a bit curious about the low-low price as well.

Don't know how typical are credit card frauds in the country you live in but so far I've never really had any bigger problems with online retailers. Slow delivery at times, yes, but nothing undelivered really. Plus I thought I read somewhere thehut.com now accepts also PayPal.

If there's anything that makes me dislike Paypal it has to be their ridiculous exchange rates... Though play.com isn't much better with their "delivery included" Euro rate which is NO relation to the GBP => EUR conversion rate.

Nothing on Amazon.co.uk OR Game.co.uk yet, I think. Went today to a game store here in Sweden and the guy knew nothing about CiM... Though he was surprised to hear that it would be released so soon and that the game would be published by Paradox -- Swedes know Swedes. As for Swedish ONLINE retailers, no information on spelbutiken.se or webhallen.com. Only place I did find CiM was CDON (219 SEK + P&P).

Edit:
Nothing on discshop.se
ginza.se: 229 SEK + P&P
netonnet.se: Nope.
elgiganten.se: Nada.
onoff.se: Nej.

Media Markt and GameStop do not list their full selection/prices online.

Release date: February 22 (the North American one?) says GamersGate. Price € 19.95 \o/
(http://gamersgate.com/DD-CIM/cities-in-motion)

Because I'm unemployed/on sick pay at the moment I'm very happy EVEN I can afford the game. But then again I feel a bit for the devs and the efforts they've put towards this game... Usually for this price you'll get some dubious German-made "simulators" having to do with farming or driving bus in very much unreal environments.

 

[co_martsu]

We hope to reach a bigger audience with the price we have for Cities in Motion. I hope you will find the game worth the price. And to help the devs, just buy the game twice like one of the Forum member suggested ;D

 

[Rokugatsu]

Huh? The game cost just 20 euro?!
Was expecting something about 40-50, like most of the games! o.o

 

[Hendrikus]

I think this is a very well considered price.
After playing the demo I think is a very sharp and fair price where other games are extremely overprized.

 

[TheCheeseMaster]

horay for affordableness!

 

[KouDy]

It was added (today i think) to Impulse. Thumbs up for Paradox making it available there!

You should try BlahDvd, their conversion to Euro is not as much of a cow milk as so many others.

Good service. I usually receive games on day of release with them, contrary to play.com.

Already placed my order.

And you certainly did, after playing the beta this was on my list for "games I will get when they go on sale", but for 20 bucks this is a day one buy for me, well day one on steam. You guys are working on that right? Specially considering how well Magicka is doing there I believe the lowest I have seen it go on the top sales chart was number 3 and today it has been number one again for a couple of days...

Smart move.

 

[Poro-]

Smart move with the pricing! Especially since this game is such a "niche product", and it is first game in the series. This way, people can get to know the game, and hopefully devs keep going for further development.

Exactly! I was very pleasantly surprised to hear it's only 20€. Now I will most likely buy it. Probably wouldn't have bought it immediately if it have been like 35€.

 

[unmerged(252959)]

Decided to start updating the first message of the thread with retailers and prices listed.

 

[Liniert]

Disapointed GAME.co.uk dont have it, normally get stuff there a day early before official release

 

[unmerged(252959)]

Another *bump bump* -- if someone has not seen the thread. Finally found the time to update the Impulse price to the list as well (digital download). Thank you all for helping out.

Edit: Liniert, yeah, even though I'm not UK based I've ordered from them a couple of times. They seem to have a big catalogue. Perhaps Cities in Motion as what could said to be a budget title has not been marketed a lot?

cdwow.com.au – AUD 24.95? (thanks OzWally)

Update --- It's now $18.95 . Free delivery in Oz
plenty cdwow in other countries.

But someone gotta tell them that release date is 22nd not 25th.
