Sins: Rebellion Collector's Edition Upgade

from Sins Forums

So I got an email about the upgrade to Sins Collector's Edition... According to the email, only 2,600 are available... and the price of the "upgrage" is $69.99 plus S/H. 

I already own Rebellion on steam. Does it mean that I still have to pay $69.99 plus S/H for a toy and dog tags? 

Check out what’s included below:

  • Painted Kol Battleship Model
  • Set of Rebellion dog tags
  • Metal imaged mouse pad with Rebellion artwork
  • Steelbook DVD Case with game DVD and 2 music CDs
  • Two 18x26" Rebellion posters

I checked and after taxes and shipping, the so-called "upgrade" will come to roughly $109... 

Now I would be happy to own this stuff, but for at least 2x cheaper... considering I already own the game and all previous sins games.

We tried our best on the shipping, and the game does not come with a serial, so you aren't re-paying for the game. If you live in the US, the shipping will only be around $10, and we are selling these at cost...this Collector's Edition is for the fans!

The package just contains a game DVD, there's not a new Steam key for it.  This is the upgrade pricing and is at cost.

Ordered it. :)

But there seems to be a problem with the email, as the pre-order button didn't work (no link). I had to open the page source to find the url.

hmm... I live in the US and it said my shipping would be about $40...

$70!!!  Considering we already own the game this is simply too much.  I truly thought that the offer to pre-order fans would only be perhaps $30-$40 ADDITIONAL over the game cost, not a further $69.99.  It may be at cost, but it has lost appeal to me now.

Any chance the music CDs will be available sperately at some point? That is what I really wanted anyhow.

Early pre-order customers get them first, even then the mail server takes time.  There was a lot of you. :D

This collector's edition is unlike any we've ever done before. It's def worth the money.

Probably not.  I converted the music from Rebellion into .mp3 a long time ago, so you could just do that.  Don't ask me how, because I won't tell you until Stardock has run out of CEs.

nvm.  I logged in, now it has lower price.

Yes, logging in dropped my shipping from $40 to $11.

I got my email at 1:16, saw it at 1:35, and had to fight the deluged store for 12 minutes to get my very own Kol.

Totally worth it.

Just a reminder, you must be logged in and have registered Rebellion to your account. :)

Just got mine, shipping in US is $11.11, pretty rock bottom considering all that weight.

Besides, I need something to show for the years I've put into this.

118$ to get it shipped here in Canada. You know what? It was my birthday Friday. I think I deserve to spend a little for myself.

Pre-ordered.

One More, for the EU shipping cost are around 30€ ouch! I hope no regret it later...

Reply #22 from Sins Forums Top

Still no mail for me.  If we did preorder but don't get a mail at all, what should we do?

Reply #23 from Sins Forums Top

Zomg....I have the game already and played it in beta.  

 

So can someone boil this down for me?  I want the collectors edition stuff like the battleship and all that, but I already have the game.  What do i do to get the ancillary stuff, and what will the cost be?
