Default PC Gamer in Canda?

Hey All,
I know that PC gamer is sold in canada but i was curious to know if there's a publishing delay up here. I've been waiting around eagerly for april 3rd to role around to get a copy of the new edition and then when i went to stores today they still had the old edition. can any of my fellow canucks share some light on this for me. did i just go to the wrong store(i checked at a 7-11) or is there a delay for us up here in the great wide north.
thanks

I talked to a stock boy at Chapters. He said they usually get the shippments for new rags on Wednesday. Now get ready for a flood of "Stitch" rip-offs. I have no idea how Anet doesn't get sued by Disney. LMAO.

A good friend of mine got 4 copies as they were being unloaded at a local 7-11 here in Edmonton.

I happen to be stuck in Canada this week (Ontario), but I think the release date was April 4th, not 3rd. So you might have some better luck today. I'll be taking a stroll down to the mall today to see if they have it. Otherwise I'll just pick it up a couple of days when I'm back in good ol' NJ .



edit: CRAP it is the 3rd...just checked the website :'( oh well, hope I find it.

Blah, I didn't think they were sold at the Archambault... I'd have picked it up yesterday, happened to go to the Complexe Les Ailes and they have an Archambault -_-'...

... I'll just check the Renaud-Bray close to the university >_>.

< in Montreal as well

Picked up my copy on the 26th as the clerk was stacking the new magazines on the floor to stock the shelves at the local corner store. Hamilton.

Took me 3 Targets and a Borders bookstore to find mine yesterday. With work in-between. (This is in the states.)

One of the target Stock boys said that it's PC Gamer's Vendors who actually stock the magazine on the shelves. So there may be delays in some areas, because of the vendors being few and far between.

Coles bookstore in Edmonton had opened and unopened ones yesterday (Apr. 3) for $10.99. Heck, even Petro Canada gas stations carry PC Gamer so there shouldn't be problems finding them here. I know Costco also gets them and the price might be cheaper there.

I just wanted to check in so that I didn't waist my time taking the long way home from university every day if it usually is a few weeks late.

it's so true about the stitch thing though...so funny.
