Does any know where to find Rayman Collector? I know a couple french websites, but they don't ship to where I live. I use goggle translator to help me on these websites. I use major buying websites like amazon and ebay.fr. Can someone help me on this, cause I'm a collector of rayman games?

You'll probably have to use eBay France or something to find such editions of Rayman, and while a few in France may do ship to the US, you'll probably have to pay quite a bit for shipping.

According to syntheticgerbil, Rayman Collector is an edition of Rayman 1 for PC, and it includes Rayman Designer, as well as all the music (I think) and the intro and outro sequences. And it's only available in French...

Yeah, but does anyone knowa website that ships to where I live which is North TX. :? Plus I can't read French.
Even with google translator, I can't read French. Priceminister, Amazon, and eBay doesn't ship to where I live.I don't know about international rates and shipping. I tried buying something from the U.K., but they wouldn't ship to where I live. I searched over 600 websites that are english, french, italian, and russian! What am I to do? Maybe someone of you who speaks english and french can read these sights that can find international shipping prices and rates go come and tell me online! :? :tssk: But I'm not trying to complain, and I'm a big fan and collector of Rayman games. So can someone still help me out there? thank you!

Maybe you should just download it? That is, if you can find an ISO of it anywhere.

eBay is auction service, so it doesn't ship anywhere.

I can't help you with my home in Poland. I have even problems with buying PS2 and rayman 10th Anniiversary without letting parents know about it! And how hard would it be to buy R1 here? Arrrr.......

I use a Windows Vista, so my windows 98 doesn't have internet and I already have rayman 1 for pc and psx. :confus: I've done some research and ebay for france, italy, and spain share the same product for unlimited amount of time until the two games of rayman collector is bought. Someone who can read one of these three languages find out on international rates? Thanks again!

Like SpiralDoor was saying, I bought Rayman Collector brand new from a seller Ebay.fr. You just have to find someone who sends to the US. But you have to pay shipping for it, which is probably more expensive than the game. I bought my copy like 4 years ago though, so shipping has went up since then. You can ask sellers questions in English if you have an ebay account if they will ship to the US and how much it will be. Most people in France speak English even if their auction is only in French. I went to Paris a few months back, this was about how it was there.

I don't remember if it had the full outro or intro, and all the music in the right place. Rayman Forever was the screw up game. I am pretty sure Rayman Collector is very well made, but I will double check when I get home for you.

It only plays in French though, so be forewarned, but it's pretty easy to get by if you have played any version of Rayman 1. It's the only place to get Rayman 60 Levels though, although they are much better than Rayman by His Fans, they are not as ingenious as the 24 levels that come with Rayman Designer. It also has 3 crappy flash-like minigames. And a Rayman 2 Making of video, only in French, and encoded in some stupid outdated video format I had to download a separate program to even watch.

So I see one on Ebay.fr for 6 Euros, which is roughly 8 dollars, plus the shipping will probably end up being 10 Euros, so it depends how much you love Rayman 1 and how much of a completist you are. I do see they don't take Paypal, which is a super hassle if you have to send them Euros overseas or a international money order, both which I have done multiple times, but try to avoid whenever possible. There's a few more on Amazon.fr, which will roughly cost the same, but if you have a credit card, it will save you the hassle. It's not like tons of people are rushing out to buy Rayman Collector anyways, so you have time.

If your just wanting the 60 levels, I can probably just E-mail you the files for it, but I don't think there is a way to rip the 3 flash-type games, and the videos of the making of Rayman 2 are too big to send around.

I think the same videos were found on another Ubisoft game at the time. Tonic Trouble perhaps?

I can put the files onto an audio CD, but my windows 98 wouldn't reconize it.

You could just rip the ISO and upload it somewhere.

Well like I said, your only choice is to buy it from France, either on Ebay, Amazon, or any other second hand site, as the game is out of print and never came out in the United States in the first place, since it's only in French.

Your only way around it would be to wait for someone who imported it that lives in the US to sell it to you personally, or see if it one day appears on Ebay US.

But I will probably still make an ISO sooner or later, since others will probably want to play Rayman 60 Levels, which I don't think many have, while most have Rayman for his Fans, and the 24 that came with the Designer.

I've been playing R1 for nearly ten years now, and am at the stage where I find it quite easy. Yet I still have difficulty with the 24 in Designer, and have managed to finish less that half of them. :|

So does anyone know someone that can buy it from France, (for ebay) spain, or italy or even the U.K and personally ship the game to where I live once I buy it from him or her? :? I can only use cash or maybe even a check.
