European retail ?

Hello all
This is my first post here, so I'll swiftly introduce myself.
In the past, I greatly enjoyed TBS games such as Age of Wonders and space sims like the Mac game Escape Velocity.
Unlike many of the MoO2 oldbies in here
, I have little experience with other games from smaller devellopers, or with the 4X genre for that matter.
When I was introduced to this little gig ( thx to Tycho @ Penny Arcade
) I nearly wet myself.
Two of my long lost loves combined in a single game : something like
Escape Velocity : The Age of Galactic Civilizations 2. Sweeeeeeeeeet
After removing excess quantities of saliva from my mousepad, I realised it wouldn't be easy getting all the pre-order preciousness (is that a real word ?) in my greedy paws.
The problem is, in Europe (or at least here in Flanders) credit cards are much less common then in the States. Last time I had to make an on-line order (4 years ago?) I contacted a friend of a friend of the neighbors. He recently passed away throwing stones at an angry bull. Or maybe I just lost track of him. Either way, it isn't easy for me to order stuff on-line (from the States). In Europe the (transcription / transfer / whatever / overschrijving in Dutch) system is commonly adapted, but not so in the States.
So after a lot of spam and lame jokes, I finally get to the point :
Can you give me a list of European retailers that will carry the game (and accept pre-orders! ) ?
The easiest way to get something is still ye good 'ol shop.
Thank you for your patience, and have a good day,
Jan
