A few of us, yes.

That's the problem with being an Ultima fan in Blighty. You can
generally trust the FAQ, though -- I've heard it's pretty reliable.

This lot, for the Ultima 1-3 compilation, is in the States, but the
seller will ship to the UK:

>Is my only option to ebay a second hand copy from the states?

Basically, yes. < No conventional British retailers still stock the
Ultima Collection, I'm afraid. Given the high price the full UC can go
for, you might want to stick with searching for the above -- depending
on the final price it brings, of course. <

HTH!
