AustinN360 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 (edited) Ordered mine from Simware Simulations (http://www.simw.com/) in Belgium on Thursday night (13th August), was shipped via UPS on Friday (17th August) and after going through Cologne I received it at 13:47 GMT here in good old Redditch in the heart of England. Damn good quality and really informative read too. 1 downfall though (but I guess it might have added to the price) is the fact that all the pictures inside are black and white. Would have been nice if it were in colour. Edited August 17, 2009 by AustinN360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Team JimMack Posted August 18, 2009 ED Team Share Posted August 18, 2009 Ordered mine from Simware Simulations (http://www.simw.com/) in Belgium on Thursday night (13th August), was shipped via UPS on Friday (17th August) and after going through Cologne I received it at 13:47 GMT here in good old Redditch in the heart of England. Damn good quality and really informative read too. 1 downfall though (but I guess it might have added to the price) is the fact that all the pictures inside are black and white. Would have been nice if it were in colour. Yes - we looked at the colour option and it would have added £10 to the cost, which we did not think was reasonable for you all. A clip as opposed to coil bound would have added another £6. Having problems?

AustinN360 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) So basically saying to those not in the EU , "If you want a manual for Blackshark, move to Europe where you will have a better chance of getting one." LOL What about guys in Africa, Canada or Central / South America (Including the Caribbean Islands)? Can't they get one? Sorry guys.

SlapStik Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Does anyone know of any US Retailers that have the manual in Stock? Amazon never has it and GoGamer has been out of stock for quite awhile.

viper3two Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Does anyone know of any US Retailers that have the manual in Stock? Amazon never has it and GoGamer has been out of stock for quite awhile. Thanks I need to know that also, been checking amazon and gogamer for weeks...they don't have them. If we order from ED what is the delivery time to United states? Can anyone give an idea? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itkovian Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I ordered mine straight from DCS. I believe the order was listed as sent a day later (a few days ago). I hope I get it soon, it's very difficult to get anything done. I imagine having a laptop to read it on as you play is a good way to handle the pdf, but since I am playing it on my laptop in the first place, that option is not available. :) Itkovian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viper3two Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 hey thanks itkovian. I probably will order it. Does anybody know where ED is located? Maybe that way I can figure out how long a shipping time would be. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlapStik Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 The main problem with ordering from ED is it is shipped at a cost of @ $20 for a total cost for a printed Manual of close to $50.!! I'm sure it is worth it to many peeps and me I guess, but ouch!!!! SlapStik TM Warthog #1547, TM TPR Pedals, TM MFD pack & TIR4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itkovian Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Quite frankly, at 50$ it is worth it for me, given how many hours I can invest in the game. Besides, printing the F4 AP manual on normal paper in a 3 ring binder cost me around that price as well (at Staples). If for the same amount I get a well bound and easy to consult manual, I am more than willing to shell out the money. :) Itkovian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viper3two Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I think its worth the money as well, just like Itkovian, I did the same with F4 and it cost around 50 bux to do a manual in a binder, so that's cool. OH....and I got a response from gogamer.com, they said about 2 more weeks until they get stock! amazon won't reply lol..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callsign.Vega Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Is the quality pretty good? I think I might just print the .pdf out on a color printer after hours at work.

-fox- Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 It's black & white but the quality is fine. Printing it yourself probably won't save you much money. Make sure to print it double-sided because it's pretty big and heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viper3two Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 hey thanks fox, I went ahead and ordered mine from ED. I figure if it's gonna be another 2 weeks before gogamer gets it and then another week of shipping from california from them, thats 3 weeks, so surely I will get it before 3 weeks coming from ED. Appreciate it guys! I think the manual is worth 50 bux, doesn't matter, I'd pay $100 for the sim and the manual each, it's awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
