Sins Shipping Rates Adjustment

from Sins Forums

Good news everyone!  We've received our own samples of the Collector's Edition box and it's nowhere near the 3lbs we were told it was!

What this means is that we're able to lower shipping rates:

$10 to anywhere in the United States

$20 to anywhere else in the world

We're automatically adjusting everyone's pre-order who was hit by the higher shipping rate to the ones above. So if you're in the U.S. you just saved $5 and outside the U.S. you just saved $15.

So i preordered just a little while ago, don't suppose that there actually won't be a charge of that much or there will be a refund?

None of the preorders post-Beta 4 have been charged (and won't be until release), so it will be automatically adjusted with the new lower shipping rate. ;)

To ship to Norway they have to use specially heated trucks, thus adding to the shipping cost. >.>

Prices went up when we were told that the box would be 3 lbs. Anyone who checked out prior to that at the $5/$10 rate will be charged the old rate. So the new prices listed here only apply to those who were quoted at the $15/$30 rate.

Fantastic!

So then, next question: I've purchased the Digital Download version. When can I update that for the $5 extra plus the shipping rate to acquire the box as well? I can't seem to find any viable method of doing that yet.

Yes, you will be able to do that on Feb 4th by emailing [email protected] with your request.
