On the Delay of Mass Effect 2 Collector's Edition in Europe

/flaming The CE, according to our living standard in my country, isn't very cheap (my grandparents live a whole month with money, similar to the price of CE) and not many people can afford to pay such price for a GAME. When I tell someone that I buy original games he/she usually thinks I'm retarded or something worse - "Why buy something, when you can download it for free?". I try to support Bioware the best way I can (I have BG1-BG2-KOTOR-ME1-DA:O in my collection) but this delay really offends me - not because of the delay itself, **** happens all the time, but because no one explains what is going on... or just saying sorry to the affected customers...
In the end, the pirates will be playing ME2 14++ days ahead of me... for FREE. And I'll have to keep waiting, worrying, swearing and in the end to PAYing for my pre-ordered copy. Nice way to fight the piracy, I give you thumbs up!

BlackHawkBG has a valid point, feels really stupid to wait longer when you are paying more of the game.
My local GameStop didn't even inform me of the delay, I read about it yesterday by accident. I visited the shop today and the salesman told me that the quantity had been cut down drastically, only 3 out of 30 CE's will be delivered, 2 for PC and 1 for XBox. Fortunately I am the other PC guy
That kinda shows that they have heavy trouble with distributing. One would wish the delay is because of Bioware adding new content to CE due to the mishap on XBox downloads, but sadly that is just a dream
At least I have time to complete ME1 for the third time and to get my Shepard on level 60 (currently 57).
/Finland btw
EDIT: More positive points. Maybe they have fixed all the Cerberus network and account trouble by the release of the CE

Vanilla game is available, CE is not.
Of course, digital distribution is just fine.
Go figure.
Funny enough they didn't learn a thing from Dragon Age.
Sad, really, since pirates can play this game for several days now, but the honest buyer
is screwed by a miserable service from EA.

For Dutch fans:
I just called Free Record Shop. They say the CE isn't delayed. So I should get it tomorrow. Gamemania send me a message today that I could pick it up. I pre-ordered at two different shops just to be sure. If someone isn't able to get the CE and lives near Arnhem, they can pick up my pre-order from Gamemania
[edit] I also just called to FRS. And they said i will also recieve the CE tomorrow!

Well,. according to Amazon.de my ME2 CE can't be canceled anymore since it's now in the shipping process. And given all the apparent issues with the DLC codes and such I'm totally cool with waiting two more days....
Also, I wouldn't mind if the CE wasn't available at the retail stores.

As I hadn't received any message so far, I just called my local gamemania only to be told that they don't have the CE yet, but that they should get it tomorrow.

Yes, it has been kind of scary the first time when I heard Bioware would have been owned by this publisher.hannibal555 wrote...

I am not very happy saying this but I am less and less optimistic about EA and Bioware.
I'ts a long time I'm not expecting nothing good from EA. Not a surprise actually.
Another bad experience to spread around in gamers boards and wherever.
Besides, there is a lack of communication from BioWare that is going to be ridiculous. Congrats.

To all the Belgian and Dutch people who ordered the CE from gamemania and got the message that they could go pick it up today: I hate you!
As I hadn't received any message so far, I just called my local gamemania only to be told that they don't have the CE yet, but that they should get it tomorrow.
