The delivery time also depends on where you are in the world. I think dirk ships them out himself in the mail so the time can vary...

If it takes more than a month, then I'd get start to get worried...3.gif

Maybe the STEX Collections page needs to be updated to reflect that the average wait time has gotten somewhat longer than the 7-12 days advertised. I don't have a problem with waiting a few weeks, but it would be nice to at least get some acknowledgment that my donation was received.

Just to clarify things, i donated a week and a half ago, and received an e-mail telling me that my donation was indeed received and the shipment of my disks would take a little longer than expected.

So i suggest if you have donated and did not receive an e-mail with in a week or two you should contact him your self to verify your donation.

Thanks for the e-mail Dirk

Ideally, use the Donate page to donate to Simtropolis. If you want to donate via regular mail(sending a money order or whatever), contact Dirk.

Hi

On 11 May I purchased, via Paypal, the two-disc STEX set. I have not yet received that purchase, and am curious to know the status.

Regards,

I live in Taipei, Taiwan

It's been about 3 months now, unfortunately, since I received the disks, after making a 45 dollar contribution to the website. However, when the disks came, my "Essential Classics" disk (Vol.1) came with a massive crack through one entire radius of the CD. I contacted the person the sheet of paper that came with the disks said to contact if their was a problem (the Simtropolis webmaster) but I never received a response. I'm aware of the long period where I have left this problem unsolved, but I still have evidence I ordered them legitimately and would like to now get what I, in essence, paid for. I was curious as to if anyone could direct me to a source where I could get a reliable response to this problem, or advice on the situation at all. Should I try contacting the webmaster again, or search for someone else to bring my complaint to?

Question, Is there a place where I can purchase and legally download a digital copy of STEX Vol. 1 and 2? As an ISO image or something? I live in Switzerland so it would take about 10 days for STEX to get here by snail mail. Thanks, Sendark

I am 99.99% sure that it is not available as a digital download. Your best bet is getting the CD's through the mail and just being patient, or downloading files one-by-one from the STEX.

Hi guys,

I made a donation of $45 through PayPal for STEX collections 1 and 2 on November 10th of last month and have not yet received anything. I emailed stexcd@simtropolis.com through several email addresses but received no responses. I was just wondering if anyone here can help with whom I should contact for an update.

Thanks!

Yang

Hmm, well it really depends on where you live. If you reside outside of Canada, international shipping takes time. I would just hang in there Iron Eagle, it should come sometime soon!

Best,

Thanks for your reply Haljackey!

Yeah, though I live outside of Canada, I don't live far away (U.S.) so the fact that it would soon be a month got me worried...

Hang tight.  These issues always clear up eventually, usually sooner rather than later.  2.gif
