Exactly the same thoughts as me. I'll stick with the CV1 Pre-order.

Me too. £680 seems a lot, £750 is excessive. Sorry, but no.

So you're not going to buy something which is £700 quid because of a £58 shipping fee??? Seems perfectly reasonable for me given the size of the package, and it'll be couriered.

I am not complaining, it is what it is, but we all have to draw the line somewhere. TBH the fact i was even considering getting one was barmy anyway. The postage just made the decision easier. had it been postage included for instance, I would have gotten it, and quite possibly ended up with buyers remorse. I said before ordering if it was more than £30 i was most definitely out.... no point making rules if you break them (like i did with the not paying more than £450 delivered for CV1 <shhhhh dont tell my wife > )

good luck to all how did bite however, I am not ranting about the price or anything.

It's the straw that breaks the camels back. Something that's pushing closer to £1000 than it is £500 for one game is just not what I'm after. Scoff at me if it makes you feel better, but It's just to rich for my blood.

Ordered. I guess I own both now. which ever one is best ill sale the other...

Not scoffing, just interested how the P&P affected your decision. If you were up for dropping the £700, I wouldn't have thought the £58 would have made much difference. Just wondering is all.

Anyways - we should all probably keep the Vive chat in the Vive discussion topic here:

It is £58 for EXPRESS shipping. Simply select the standard shipping for £4. That's what I did anyway.

 

[Gray Lensman]

i think it is just a turn of phrase.

You failed to detect my subtle (irritated) sarcasm. It's a very very annoying turn of phrase that is spreading like a virus!

yeah i just noticed people saying that on reddit.... cant believe this now but i am back in on the pre-order page.. its struggling tho.

apparently some get offered cheap postage and some not, it seems a postcode lottery :/
