Anyone know a way to order the Encyclopedia Eorzea 2 if you live in AUS?

I know this isn't technically about lore but I figured you guys would have the best chance of knowing.

I got the first Encyclopedia thanks to a friend who lived in Europe however that option isn't open to me this time round. As a resident of Australia the US and European SE stores won't ship to my country and the AU store doesn't have it on the site.

Anyone got any ideas on a proper way to pre order it or is it just not available in Oceania?

I’m not sure about pre-orders, but after it’s released, maybe you can find a seller on Amazon or eBay that will ship it to Australia? I don’t know if there are any sellers on either platform currently offering pre-order sales for it, but it could be an option for buying it after the release date.

Aussie friend of mine uses me as a proxy, so I pre-ordered 2 copies and will then forward one of them to him. Downside is the additional shipping costs for him: half the pretty pricy shipping fee from SE store to me + then shipping from me to him

Your best bet is an amazon seller if the pre-order page on Square's site doesn't list your country as a shipping option.

I live in in the Middle East(more specifically Saudi Arabia) which Square doesn't ship to on their site which is why I'm waiting them to restock on the first book so I can get it from amazon before I pre-order the second one

Oh well. Looks like there isn't a way to get it straight from the source. That is frustrating. I will have to wait for release and then see what I can find. Thanks for the answers.

I used a mail forwarding service to ship the first Encyclopaedia from the NA store to New Zealand, and I will be doing the same for the second one. It'll just cost a bit extra.

Yeah, same here. Mail forwarding service (vPost) to ship to Singapore. Did this for pre-order, for both the first and now the second Encyclopedia Eorzea.

The issue was that the "billing address" field didn't have a Singapore option, so I just put in the NA address of the vPost warehouse and hoped for the best, while actually putting the payment through Paypal. (Then I added US$100 to my Paypal account, because that's about how much the whole thing would cost, shipping and all.)

I'm not sure if Australia has mail forwarding services available for this sort of thing. vPost is a Singapore Post service, and they delivered the first Encyclopedia Eorzea to me successfully, so they do work for me. Hope that gives a starting point.

Unsure about pre-ordering, but I was able to buy the Encyclopedia Eorzea 1 from CDJapan (they eventually got around to selling the English book).

At the moment they only have the Japanese volume for pre-order.

Square enix store aus needs some major work or update
We have to rely on scalpers with there borderline insane prices to buy this stuff

And here I am, kicking myself for not knowing about such services.

For those who remain unaware, mail-forwarding services are easy to find. My Google search threw up ReShip right away. It gives you a US mailing address in Oregon. The Singapore vPost service uses a warehouse address in the same state. You'll have to pay more for shipping, but that's the cost non-NA customers inevitably have to bear to get American products that ship only in the US.
