honestly EC hasn't made it down to my part of the world, infact I got blank looks from the Gaming Nerd at my F(NS)LGS till he looked it up and the distributor has it coming soon but with no release date, PoD isn't even on the Distributors Radar.

I know it's not MOP, FC & Mongooses fault, but their would be less of the problems being caused by folks further down the supply chain if we could just get More.
 
Brisbane Australia, My FLGS sold up and changed hands (as well as name) now dose just Cards, but is clearing the old owners Stock (if he can turn a profit , mostly just WotC stuff. an other store on my side of town also of late got out of the RPG business and their is a little hole in the wall that dose Merchandise and badly overcharges for it's limited RPG stock. I live an hour north of the City and that's the only place that has a single store that stocks RPG's.

from what I understand (so I may be wroung) their Domestic Games Distributor orders from a US Distributor that orders from an other larger US Distributor that orders from someone in the UK for most of their Non American stuff, So I know it's not Mongooses fault it's the long and drawn out Supply Chain that I have to deal with.

Knowing my luck I'll have to wait for Interstate Vendors to bring up their stock to Gen Con OZ to get up to date with not just my DW books but a lot of other Games as well.

It is not quite as bad as that. The main problem is that Australia has no centralised distribution system (if anyone has money to invest, this would be a good business to get into!!!).

A lot of Australian gamers are getting round this by direct mail order from us, but a longer term solution certainly needs to be found.
 
Down South and Regional Queensland both have Stores that source from multiple distributors and even strait from Publishers, but I doubt the store I shop at dose that except as a last resort.
