Hey there.

I need peoples opinions on where I should order my guild wars factions Collectors Edition from.

I am completely canceling out simply games, as I want to have access 24hours early.

Heres the list of retailers i'm looking at.(taken from offical gw website)

http://www.gamestation.co.uk/
http://www.game.net/
http://www.play.com/
http://www.virginmegastores.co.uk/
http://www.gameplay.com/
http://www.gameseek.co.uk/
http://www.hmv.com/

Please remember i'm looking at the collectors edition.

Please give me suggestions on which is the most reliable retailer, and please give any feedback if you have any.

Thanks
Asheigh.

I know that amazon had the preoder disc for 4 dollars or something, this is the collectors edition

I got the regular vers plus the preorder stuff for $44 USD from amazon

I started with simply games.com and now i have cancel it and made my order with gameplay.co.uk.

To be honest I would have order from game.net but i just hate them cos they never know anything and lie like hell but I don’t have exp with them online so i just hope they are better than they are in the shops.

I have only order from gameplay.co.uk 2 times and never had a problem but never order a pre-order.

Once I placed my order with Gameplay.co.uk they send the 2 keys the next day. 1 key for the 24th event and another the pre-order key were u can join the game 24 hours before, and this key gives u 2 in game items one for the assassin the other for the Rit.

I done this Gameplay.co.uk Gameplay Price £44.99 CE + £0.99 P&P
Game.net £49.99 CE + £4.95 P&P

You can try getting the game in the Game Store but I would be surprise if they know anything about any pre-order pack. At least my local GAME doesn’t have a clue.

The diff between both is that you get the Pre-order pack from game.net and you don’t get it from Gameplay.co.uk.

And from GAME it’s like £10 more than gameplay.co.uk, so you need to decide do you really need that pre-order pack?

I can’t advise what’s best I can only say what I have done.

OK, I sent this as a PM to Ashleigh but it's good info for all you Brit preorderers

I paid for the pre-order from GAME.net a few weeks ago and the pre-order codes were emailed within a day or two.

Couple of days ago I got another email from GAME asking if I would like to upgrade my preorder to Collectors' Edition!

GG GAME!
