$39.95 is the correct price. The page here has not been updated yet since the change was very recent.

We do want to make it a fair deal to those to preordered earlier in the beta and paid $44.95, but are still determining how we will compensate them. Details should be forthcoming when we have a plan ready.

so if i preordered but after the beta closed i should eventually be charged 39.95 since my credit card hasn't been charged yet, correct?

Should be, yup. You can contact sales@stardock.com to be sure.

On an unrelated note, if we pre-ordered the 'digital copy + shipping' on impulse after beta entry has closed, do we still get the CE version? Thanks.

just a quick question regarding the "download + retail box" option.

 

Am i to assume this means that on the day of release i can download and play it - and i will also recive a standard retail boxed version with CD and Manual that you might expect to find in a store ?

 

thanks

Yup.

Is that another 10$ for Shipping/Handling (I think that's what it says)?

 

I'm trying to figure out the best way to Preorder, and the site confuses me.

S/H costs (varies by location) will be in addition to the $49.95 for the boxed CE itself.
