Title: Anyone want a Collector's Ed box?
Post by: Stormwaltz on February 26, 2009, 07:25:12 PM
There's still seven or eight available at local stores. $80 CDN (~$64 US), I'll eat the shipping cost. I just like getting these things into the hands of those who want them.

Are we talking Moria or vanilla?

Personally, I think they failed big time on the CE. Nothing in it is worth paying extra for.

Yo - I may.  I need to clear it with the wife, first.

Moria. To be clear, here's what's in it (http://www.massively.com/2008/11/18/unboxing-the-mines-of-moria-collectors-edition/).

Actually, my quick Googling revealed that Amazon.com still has it for $60 (http://www.amazon.com/Lord-Rings-Mines-Moria-Collectors-Pc/dp/B001FS8XAK), which qualifies for free shipping. A bit cheaper if you can get it from there. For those without CCs or in places Amazon won't ship, my offer stands.

Personally, I think they failed big time on the CE. Nothing in it is worth paying extra for.

I'm a sucker for a soundtrack CD, especially ones with a chorus of manly men chanting in Khuzdul.

Stormwaltz, would you mind shipping it to Sweden? I understand the costs, I'd be more than willing to compensate you for the inconvenience. For some reason Amazon won't ship here;

It'd be fun to play with you guys on Brandywine, I'm a bit bored with my current kin. And having both collector's would be a giggle, I suppose. :grin:

For what it's worth, the Best buy stores in Minnesota have it in a 25% off bin right now.

Also interested in a couple for my wife and myself ince we're out of WoW at the moment, but again.. shipping to Australia is a bit more than to the US...

Anyone who wants, PM me with your shipping address. My payday is Friday. Since there seems to me more than one interested, I'd like to wait until then (having the rent check bounce would, um, suck).

Once I have the boxes in hand and ready to ship, I'll ask about reimbursement. I'd prefer PayPal, but I can take a personal check in the mail.

Tarami - I'll check to see how much shipping to Sweden is, if it's excessive (say over $20 CDN), I might ask for half.

Like I said, doin' it for the love, ya'll. Love. Whoo!

Go ahead and reserve me 1.  I will pay with either check or just get you an Amex card (if thats ok). 



edit.  I may just do the Amex card - would end up being 100USD pre paid, so would help with shipping cost for our overseas friends.  I will let you know.

No stress I believe, but how is this coming along? I'd love to have the US edition in time for Book 7. :-)

I will join you tomorrow after the patch with a spanking new Elven Warden. Around what time do the servers usually get back online?
