I'm trying to give you guys money, but you don't seem to want it :'(

from GalCiv2 Forums
I want to pre-order Dark Avatar, however I can only pay using PayPal and you do not have that option enabled because PayPal doesn't do pre-orders.
I don't care! Please take my money now. The thought that I will lose 5 bucks because you don't want my money is making my head spin

So pretty please, take my money, I'm sure you want it As an added incentive, I'll transfer it directly from my paypal account so you're not charged any credit fees (what more could you want)

You can pre-order and pay via Paypal

To do this you need to do the following: -

Click the TGN logo at the bottom left of this website.
This opens the TGN website.
Find Galciv II Dark Avatar.
Click 'Pre-order'
Click 'checkout'
Log in with your Stardock Store id if you have one (this is not your id for here). If you don't have an ID just fill in the relevant fields.
Click continue.
This takes you to the 'Verify your order' page. In the middle of this page is a section that says.. "If you have a PayPal account and would like to process your payment through PayPal click on the PayPal button or click here." Click this!
This will open up the paypal page where you can enter the relevant details for your paypal account.

Hope that helps

NB For TGN subscription holders & people with TGN tokens, you can pre-order DA using the method above but instead of clicking 'Unit Price' you click the token link.

I'm having trouble following these instructions.

"Log in with your Stardock Store id if you have one (this is not your id for here). If you don't have an ID just fill in the relevant fields.
Click continue.
This takes you to the 'Verify your order' page. In the middle of this page is a section that says.. "If you have a PayPal account and would like to process your payment through PayPal click on the PayPal button or click here." Click this!"

After logging into Stardock store and completing Step 1, customer information, I click continue which takes me to payment info. I see NO option for paypal and I can't even proceed to the third step without providing a credit card.

I'm still stuck, anyone?

Greetings old bat!! One of the Evil Empire finally made it over here then!! If you are the Baka from the old days that is!!

Best bet would be to contact Sales on - [email protected] and ask them how you pre-order via paypal.

Sorry i cant help you more but paypal section comes up for me immediately.

Ahh, I see, the paypal section works perfectly when you're NOT trying pre-order stuff. How infuriating... this must be a conspiracy to stop people without credit cards from buying items from stardock. (The snathii maybe?)

Stardock, take my money, please

Paypal can't be used for preorders. However, if you contact [email protected] you may be able to arrange something such as sending a cheque by mail (can't say as they'll let you do that specifically, but they can probably work something out).

I've mailed Stardock with my request. I don't see the problem with stardock refusing to take my money until the game is released .
I have no fears that SD will take my money and run not for $24.
