You are not correct, sir. If I say 'no, I don't accept the charge' I get an error message which says 'International shipping confirmation required'.

Yeah, maybe I should. Feels like they've got so much on their hands right now tho, but I probably will one of these days.
Just for the record, I don't think they are unfair in asking for another $10 for international shipping, I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up costing them more than that to send it.

I have seen it, and it is pretty rad, but I may also end up paying duty and service charges on it, which means another like $10-15.
I just think they've missed a pretty obvious option for us foreigners.

OK, so I guess most people signing up for the yearly subscription thinks the T-shirt is cool, and I don't necessarily disagree, but if you, like me, live outside of the US, maybe there should be an option to say 'no, I don't want to pay the extra $10 for the T-shirt, but I want the other stuff." For me, that's the only reason I haven't signed up for a subscription yet. I want to go for a full year, I want to be rid of ads, but I don't feel like paying an extra $10 for the T-shirt.
 
Maybe I'm unique in all this, but i highly doubt it.

What I've seen so far of Medal of Honor looks really good, and I've always been kind of a fan of the series (I'm such a sucker for Steven Spielberg), but there are things that do look a bit worrying. What it comes down to is basically the fact that DICE is heavily involved in the creation of the game, leading to the game looking more like a Bad Company 2 port than its own game.
 
I'm not sure how true this will be for the single player component, but what they showed in the multiplayer trailer at the EA press conference looked a whole lot like it was more or less taken straight out of Bad Company 2.  OK, so I, as many, think that Bad Company 2 has very good multiplayer, but that doesn't mean that I want it replicated in other games.
 
For me, Medal of Honor means something different than Battlefield, or Bad Company, and to see the same types of messages when killing an enemy, for example, more or less in the exact same font, I start to get a bit worried. The same thing goes for the hand grenade icon.  I think the fact that the new game takes place in a modern setting doesn't help.
 
Maybe I'm just being crazy, maybe they change it along the way, or maybe it feels totally different when you play the game, but for now my view of Medal of Honor is shrouded in a fair amount of skepticism.

This happened to me when I deleted an unread message. Now I have no unread messages, and it still says 1 unread.
