I got my pre-release pack automatically after ordering Nightfall CE.

Hummm ... any Portuguese that managed to order/buy the pre-release pack ? I emailed CD-Wow asking for this, since it's free shiping worldwide and they actually send to Portugal.

Maybe all the lorry drivers in this country are a bit lax?

ALSO, just to add to your notes, Alex, I recieved a full boxed preorder pack in the post from GAME on Saturday as well. (I preordered the CE from them online last month, but I need another pack or 2, as I have 3 accounts, hence my going hunting for one on friday. ) - The thing that strikes me as unusual about that is that according to the information you were given, GAME were not sending out the box for online pre-orders, were they?

Default Nightfall Pre-Release Pack in online european stores

Here's my situation:

I live in Portugal (and I'm portuguese), I'm totally addicted to GW and when this pre-order pack was annouced and only thought of getting it. But in Portugal our retailers really, REALLY suck. So probably we're never going to have the pre-release pack over here (we had factions pre-order pack in FNAC stores, but Nightfall prerelease cant be seen anywhere) I checked all stores with ramifications in UK: Fnac, Game, Virgin, etc. None has the Pre-release pack.
So now I was thinking of ordering it online. But, since I want the physical pre-release pack and not just a damn key, it seems that there inst any UK Online Site that could send me my physical pre-release pack. Any one here knows a website (preferably UK's) that can send me a pre-release pack while pre-ordering the CE, or Nightfall Simple Edition?

Like i have mentioned in my post, i sent an email to CD-Wow.com (who ship games to Portugal with free shiping and much cheaper than anywhere here in Portugal ) but i'm still waiting for an answer. If they do reply to my email, i'll be sure to put here the answer.

Waiting for that information also. And yes stores in Portugal sucks. I've Buyed both (Prophecies and Factions) online from UK sites.
I want to buy a pre-order, key only, don't want the box, if anybody knows where, i apreciate. I read the post from Alex Weekes, but i want the information from someone who really got the key emailed to.

If you want just the cd-key for the pre-release pack, go here
but you must pre-order Nightfall.

Manager, when you get that mail plz post it, thought I already got an idea of what they're going to answer you...

Amazon - OB

Amazon don't have the pre-order pack listed yet and PC World don't have Nightfall listed at all.

I have also pre-ordered from Amazon.co.uk ... does the pre-release pack come with it or not? There is no mention of it anywhere. Can anyone who ordered from Amazon.co.uk confirm they got the pre-release pack?

I know a mate ordered from Game and got the disc though. TBH I went into Game shop and saw the disc in store for £1.99. Bargain imo.

Amazon.co.uk still have no knowledge of it, but Amazon.com now have it up for sale, so maybe we'll see some information soon.

No sign of the boxes in Norway. A few of the listed sites now have GWN up for preorder - but no mention of the bonus key - mostly they have the box art and nothing more.

I really want this PBP box. ANet - what's up?!

As I understand it, the three options are stores selling the boxed pack, online stores selling the boxed pack and online stores giving just the keys.

Amazon are down as only selling/giving the boxed pack so they shouldn't have sent any keys out by email.

I'm portuguese too, went to Forum Almada Fnac, and they said that they would have the game this month (i went there in September). I want the Pre-Release too just for the free slot and now im desperate because 27 October is coming and they don't have the damm Pre-Release...

P.S: I'm not talking in Portuguese for obvious reasons...

No it's free if you buy the full game too, they only charge the £24.99 if you cancel the full game pre-order after.

Pre-order Guild Wars: Nightfall and get a Guild Wars: Nightfall Pre-order Pack for free. Conditions Apply--see here for details and instructions on how to get your free pre-order pack.

Myself, I get fed up with waiting for store's other than expensive ones like Game to get it listed and stuck with my £17.89 pre-order from sendit and picked up a sealed bonus pack on ebay for a fiver delivered so saved a couple of quid on amazon's price.
