Well, that didn't work either.

For some reason they would not process the purchase. So off to another store who was selling the same software online, they took the sale no problem and said they would ship it to me. Whatever, I need it. I can wait a week or two. Lets just do it and get it on the way.

I should have insisted they sent it FedEx but I didn't. Nor did I think much of it when they sent me a tracking number for the US Postal Service. I just thought anyone who ships internationally would know better than to send it on the slow boat to China.

So almost two weeks later I looked into the shipment and noticed they used the US Postal Service and the package has been fucking off in New York all this time for reasons unknown. And the tracking stopped there.

I call the USPS to see what the hold up is and they inform me that it did leave the USA yesterday, but once the package has left the USA, they can usually no longer track it and maybe they will get info, maybe not, they can only really keep track until it leaves the USA, which is did.

Where is it now? They don't know.

When will it get here? Between 6 business days and 1 month or MORE. They don't know. It could be a while. They can't see it anymore.

It's already been over 6 business days, any ideas? Nope. Sorry, can't help you.



It would be much, much, easier just to go buy a cracked copy CD from the local bootleg store.

This is what you get when you try to do the right thing.

Isn't it nuts how shopping malls in 3rd world countries just flat out sell bootleg shit like its cool? It really is harder to find the real deal.
