It doesn't matter whether you will sell the minidragon. It matters that you and every other CE owner can, and at least one will.
Addition: Do you even know what cynic means?

and if that one person does... will it affect you?
answer: only if your the one buying it.

Are you trying to say someone shouldn't argue for or against something that doesn't affect them, or are you saying there's some reason I, specifically, shouldn't?

Well I just called Gamestop and they said they will NOT be getting the CE for quite some time. Said none of their stores in the valley are getting them. (Salt lake city Utah) Does anybody know for sure what stores have them? Like Best Buy or some other major stores?

You've either (a) not read all my posts or (b) blatantly ignored what I've said.

As for those who say it's unfair, guess what? It's not. I paid more than you did for my CE, and I had to wait a week later than to play the game, I deserve a little something extra in return.
TY Anet, and I can't wait to get my CE, which should be tomorrow according to EB Games .
ps. plz don't customize it. I'd never sell mine, but it would just lose it's value if it became a customized plain old blue item, like the preorder weapons.

no, the better solution, two mini pet, one dragon, and one glint!

You wanted a true argument, so i'm giving it to you...
I'm not saying either of those... I'll put it this way... Why would you argue something so aggressively if it doesnt affect you?
So far the only affect i'm seeing that its having on you is jealousy. Or is there something else your hiding?

hey, ooga booga, your location is way near mine. The salt lake best buy has them in right now... not even kidding. call them up, and grab your copy. i think they only had a few.
use this link if you need a confirmation of it. Linky
in fact you'll notice the best buy in riverdale, salt lake, murray, and logan all have them.

All you getting CEs: I hate you all.
(Just kidding.)
agentnull: I've read every post from you, and still don't get your point. For the last time, the Dragons don't do anything.
For that matter, neither does Gold. Drop rates are increasing. Green items are getting more common. Craftable items are very nice.
In short, there's no reason to complain about people being rich (or, more to the point, people with the potential to be rich).
And who here doubts the Kuunavang Dragon could be a Green next year? (well, I hope anyway)

Honestly there's a good chance it'll be a green next year. but then again... I'm not sure they'd give out collector items as gifts to random 2 year old charaters. That would be kinda a slap in the face to the ones who had to wait for the CE to come out to play factions. But then again, it was kinda a gift for us as well... Anyway it's up to them. BTW, thanks again for the gift.
ok, now i got another point to argue. this is for agentnull, and anyone else worried how this dragon will affect the eco:
Farming new items in factions could very well have made me just as much as selling one of these dragons would make me. We all know how highly priced new found items can be in a game like this. But, since we hanvt been able to play factions as of yet, a dragon that does nothing should be an okay gift for us right?
Just yesterday a friend of mine was filling me in on the money he's been able to make just since factions came out, and I was amazed at the large sum he quoted me. If he was interested (which he's not), i'm sure he could purchase a dragon mini with the gold he's made in that short period of time.
Yes, the eco will be bumpy for a while, but it wont be because of theese mini's, it's becasue of the new chapter, and how hard it is to mix new with old.

no null i did read and here is your rant

That was me being too angry to post without triggering the filter. What about the people who were going to buy the CE, but then decided not to because of the delay? I didn't want to be teased for a couple of days, then have to wait a couple days, etc... Now, of course people are going to tell me I should have, that I'm not a hardcore fan because I'm impatient, but oh well.
Why doesn't A-Net allow people to buy (for like $5-$10) the dances and/or the presents?

Dances are only for Ritualists and Assassins.
Gift will be available in about 10 days.
Read before you post.

^^ also the /dance emote doesn't give you the backup dancers.
On your assassins and ritualists, use /dancenew to see the backup dancers.
But be warned, if you do this on a male ritualist, your brain will melt. Please notify your next of kin before doing /dancenew (or /dance) on a male ritualist.

My opinion: Those of us that paid for more than 1 accnt (such as two chp 1 and two chp 2 which can be verified with keys) should get some kind of recognition since they are saying that CE account holders are supporting Guildwars, what are we doing?

Am I the only one who thinks a certain someone has become a troll, and thus, should be ignored?
This is as fair as it get's. Get over it.
Am I complaining that I wasn't around when unconditional 15% damage weapons we're dropping. Which I might add are worth a hell of a lot more than any baby dragon? No.
The 20/20 Rockmolder didn't drop for me? No
I didn't find any more than 3 Superior Absorptions and sell then when they we're worth 100K+? No.
Should I also be upset about coming into the game relatively late and having all the 'cool' names for characters/guilds already taken? No.
That is the nature of materialism. It would not be valuable if everyone had said item. Re-sellable or not. The fact is, your only pissed because you want one and can't have one. Either because you don't want to pay extra or you couldn't wait in the first place. The fact that you can 'still' get 1 anyway, 20 bucks extra or not is something you should be thanking Anet for.
Jealousy and envy have many faces.
BTW Anet/Gaile. For my b' day (coming soon, I want a baby Bladed Attxe. Thanks, luv' ya' :P )
