Actually, the headquarters are based in a duty-free island (don't exactly know its name). That is why they've got all the stuff for much cheaper than their RRP.

Because they haven't got home to pick up the mail yet?

There are logical reasons for (almost...) everything, take a breathe and step back. Just wait.

I happily stand corrected and am happy that they are branching out

They are a great company and I've used them for a few years now and never had an issues with them and hadn't noticed that they have now expanded

Or maybe the magazine was cursed, and anyone who read it have to show it to someone within 1 day. If you don't you will receive a phone call and there will be a scary little girl with black hair and red cape, come out of the magazine and eat you..................yeah I think the magazine just late.

Peter Griffin made me do it!

Why don't you get your family postman to nick a copy from the post office, or at least get the GW part on microfilm using a spy camera hidden in a potato

Does it not just demonstrate that US postmen are lazy?

I started to assume the "delay" yesterday when I was like, wait, this is a bulk shipped mag, I feel exceedingly happy when I get a PACKAGE early, let alone regular mail. Thats when I realized we will see it most likely towards the end of the week. Still driving me crazy lol. I haven't even felt this anxious for christmas!

No they are not. They are both hardworking folks. Its the service that PC Gamer has signed up for, which is the cheapest and slowest postal service around.
