Hi

I was wondering where i could buy another GW Account? - When im in the GW shop, it just says "Already purchased" ...

Do i really have to buy another GW copy, or can i just pay Anet for another account?

Oh thank god I thought for a moment it was about Cannabis...

Anyways, go to your nearest local retailer shop or your dearest e-dealer and buy the game, as in a box.

WHEN YOU LOG INGTO YOUR ACCOUNT AND GO TO GW SHOP ITS FOR THATACCOUTN ONLY.

if youwant another accoutn you must kae a new one as in
new email
new keys, as in go to the store and buy it or the ncsoft website, please not you must make a new account there too

buyng accounts from anyone is wrgon and you willbe banned for it , so do not buy accounts already made you must make a new one yourself

And about 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of the time its a scam, so stay away from guys in-game. But ya, go hit up your local Target or Best Buy or something of that sort.

or better yet buy the collectors/trilogy edition and get all three for the price of less than NF was.

Reeeeeally? You're trying to say that if I have 2 gw accounts and I tell my buddy that he can have one for $20 or a case of beer or a naked pic of his old lady, I'd get banned or he'd get banned? Or were you just refering to people who buy/sell accounts in game? Cuz if that's the case, ya, it's a scam in game for sure. How could it not be?

"Hey can I buy your proph account for 100k?"
"Sure! That'd be super!"
"K, just trade me the 100k and I'll pm you the account info."
"Awesome!" (clicks trade, puts in 100k, clicks ok)
"Thanks Buddy."
"So, umm about that account info...."
This player has placed you on his ignored list.

In answer to the op though, just go to your local store and buy the Trilogy, it'll still be cheaper than buying gw from plaync store, and then getting half off either factions or nightfall.

Actually, yes, you both could get banned, though it's not that likely to happen in most cases.

This is intended to keep people from selling maxed out accounts for real-world money. Like if you made an account, ran a character up to level20, accumulated a bunch of gold, weapons, etc., and then sold it on eBay. (I know a guy who sold his WoW account for $500)

If you simply had an extra, unused, account, there wouldn't be anything morally wrong with selling/giving it to a buddy (and it's not "illegal" in the legal sense), but it would still, technically, be against the EULA, and, therefore, could get you banned. (EULA - End User License Agreement - the thing you don't read, but click "accept" on.

)

If you simply want a 2nd account, but don't really care which/how many campaigns are on it, then shop the sales. Last year I picked up a 2nd account during the Black Friday sale (day after Thanksgiving in USA) for $9.99. It contained Prophecies and EotN.

Just hit the mall next Friday. Uh, bring combat gear....you'll need it.
