Still no sign of the new Spartacus release in the U.K. over a week since release.

I dealer in Germany has had it since last week so why has the U.K. not received it yet? Or is this another release not for U.K. release?

It's getting to the stage that UK money is like a dirty secret. The manufacturers want it, but don't want to admit they take it. I often wonder how many of the recent releases are not restricted to the UK by the copywrite owners, but because the manufacturers know the product is going to be a sell-out, so don't bother getting a UK licence.

Very Depressing - Although there is a market in UK companies don't deem it worthy of bothering about. Can't even send in for thr Free internet promo's

As far as I know Spartacus has a worldwide licence not just US/Canada.

It appears that the few dealers who purchased Spartacus in the U.K. are not selling on THAT U.K. site yet.

Rittenhouse have produced an Excellent set which surely would have appealed to the U.K. market.

I suppose there is still time for it appear over here.

May'be most of the U.K. dealers are getting it from sources other than direct from Rittenhouse and this is causing the delay.

I suspect in todays economy most dealers can only afford to order the quantity that has been pre-ordered by their customers.

It's expensive to buy from the USA what with all the customs and VAT fees.Most people have not got the reserve capital to buy cards they are not guaranteed to sell.
