This I would like to know - Somalion - 03-28-2007

Is it easy for a 15 year old (soon 16) like me to buy Penumbra (box) from Finland? I'm asking this because I don't see any webstores in Finland that have it on preorder and I don't believe that you can buy the game with Visa Electron (at least the download). So is there a way to buy the download or the box with Electron or do I have to ruin my chances of getting it by asking my parents (and they'll say no). If I can pay it with Electron but it's not available in Finland, where would be the best location to order it (if ordered from the US it would cost me something about 50€ and that's IF the Electron is a paying option).

why dont you ask your parents?
i cant buy it off internet to and im 17
or just get the boxed version, its much cooler to have a box with your game :p

I don't ask my parents since they always say no to this kind of stuff. But anyways I'll get the box if it's available in Finland. If not then the closest place to order it would be Germany and I can't understand German at all so it's kinda sad.

German box should come with english support, when the game is out perhaps some german user can report in to make 100% sure!

Hi, i'm from Finland too.

Currently as far as i know, only Sampo Visa electron cards seem to work online. Don't know about Nordea etc.
I have one and i have never had a problem ordering stuff online. It works like a typical credit card. It works even if it's not listed.

Thanks for the info. Now I should be able to get it when I decide to buy it ^^

I asked from my bank (Osuuspankki) about it and it seems that I have to activate "verified by Visa" service first. Then it shouldn't be a problem I think

By the way. If I'd order the box from UK would they accept euros as a payment. Anyone know?

Yeah that should be okay. Your bank automatically converts the currency.

That helps really much Smile. Then I can order it from a English site which I can understand Big Grin
