A couple of weeks ago, Amazon (or rather Royal Mail) lost my (UK) delivery of NWN2 and DoW:DC - it was a super saver thing. It was potentially very annoying but thankfully I had M2TW and so was not too bothered.
Kudos to Amazon though, they speedily sent a replacement. I thought I would just have to take the hit, losing my order/money.
Given my experience and de Monfort's point, maybe it's worth paying for the postage though?
