SBP PE shipping price

matxer · 04-04-07, 05:12 AM

When I fill the order form for SBP PE at the developper's site, shipping and tax are 0 $.

I live in France.

Does it mean shipping cost is included in the product price ($ 125) ?

the price you pay for the sim include the S&H , I receive my without paying tax. it just a bubble DVD size package, so La poste handle it like a letter.

Hi, officially taxes are excluded for international shipping costs. However, I yet wait to see somebody saying that taxes were added to his package. Probably because the sim comes not in a typical game box, and could easily be mistaken as a private gift.

Concerning wether I/we like the sim or not, I recommend to check the SBP ressources thread on top of the thread list, and the screenshot thread. There you find a lot of articles, and reviews, also links to the SB P home forum. If you are in for tanks, you will like it, but don'T expect a game, it is a sim meant to train military crews in real life. Support is excellent, with long term dedication shown by community and developer as well.

Concerning a comparison to T72 - forget it. Both programs are lightyears apart.

Read the review were I probably answered really all questions I could imagine to be on people's minds.

well I test tT72 demo but so far do not consider SBPSE to be a game it is a simulator and you have to practice a lot before enjoying it (it s my point of view).

The border line between game and simulation is often thin.

Is the Silent Hunter series a game or a simulation ?
And the Flight Simulator series ?
And rFactor in the car racing area ?

I paid only EUR 93 for SBP PE, including shipping and taxes. After all, in Euro countries it's only 1.5 the price of a console game.

From the little I have tested, it's well worth one and a half game.

Damn, I should remember that 125 refers to dollars, not euros. I too payed only 97 euros one year ago, I think.
