I really want to buy this game, but the shipping costs, to South Africa, are just insane.
Is there any other way to buy and get this game shipped?

Yikes. It *might* be cheaper to ship to a friend and have them send it to you, if that's an option.

I have been sitting this thread out, but...

For Australia the shipping is unbelievably good, $32 on Rookie plus some extras.

In comparison, the last few CMON kickstarters were around $150 for shipping (which is why I will not go near them with the proverbial 10 foot pole).
Sanity is a curse.

That's a lot.

Ithilalqua's right that your only other option is to ship it to someone in another country and see if they can re-ship it to you.

I did the math on doing that from the US and it isn't even close, it's almost $50 for the first shipment to the US and then Fedex quoted me like $500 on the second shipment from the US to South Africa.

But it seems like Australia or something could be a better bet.

There are services that do this if you don't have any international friends, but obviously they're making a cut, so that's even less likely to save money.

I think, sadly, you may be stuck :pinch:

Hi, sadly I didn't order. I just couldn't make myself lay out $178 on shipping alone.

insert huge sigh here, well it wouldn't be called service if everyone did it
