    My CD2 is wacked as it has been running a bit in my CD during the last years not to mention that I dont take the best of care of my discs.

    I frigging bought the game even as I am receiving CD2 from a buddy. I just want to have it completely legit. 41€ for it all, those damn Germans better come through! ;)

    It was HB. They had 3 copies and seemed to be trying to get rid of them. I would have bought one but I already have the game obviously :p

    For crying out loud! I just got a mail from Computoz the German company I ordered the game from through Amazon and they lamented that they were all out of copies!. Atleast that is what I interpreted their mail to with my rusty junior high German. They mumbled something about new games coming in September 7th but seeing as everywhere else games have been ordered they have yet to show I doubt they too will get some.

    So now I am pondering whether get my money back which they offered and wait for the game to not show up in a Swedish store where I can get it cheaper and with no shipping or to just let them have the money and wait for them not to get any more games but supporting SP a bit.

    Here is the mail so a proper German speaker can see if I understood it correctly and perhaps help me with a reply:
    Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
    bitte entschuldigen Sie das Deutsch in der folgenden Nachricht, wir sind Engländer und nutzen unsere begrenzten Sprachkenntnisse unter zur Hilfenahme von Internet Übersetzungsprogrammen. Wir hoffen, dass Sie uns verstehen können und bedanken uns für Ihre Geduld.

    Sie bestellen vor kurzem "Baldur's Gate 2 incl. Thron des Bhaal" von uns über Amazon.de. Wir sind sehr traurig, aber wir sind nicht vorrätig von diesem Produkt gelaufen und können nicht neuen Vorrat bis September 3. erhalten. Wir halten an zu Ihren Aufträgen bis dann, es sei denn Sie nicht warten möchten, wenn dieses der Fall dann ist, bitte email wir und wir erstatten Ihr Geld so bald wie möglich zurück.

    Wir entschuldigen uns noch einmal für diese Störung,
    Computoz.

    Hmm, I just saw that they are English if I understood it correctly. I am going to send them a mail in English to see what they say.

    Please excuse our German because we are English and translate this into German with a translating-program. Great! :thumb:

    It also says, you can have your money back immediately, if you don't want to wait until their stocks with BG2 are refilled on the 03.09.... Oh, sorry, I've made a mistake. That's not immediately, that's as soon as possible.

    Somehow I think to get the English-original of that letter will be a rather complicated process.

    Depending on whether it is available. I have found it for 20 bucks here but they didnt have it in. Just like every other single place.
