From the fires of a cursed earth comes the latest horror story to hit the financial pages on Wall Street as behemoths roam far and wide sowing seeds of magical discomfort and utter destruction. Will the might of Azeroth withstand the evil of the US banking sector.....

Price Increase
Sadly due to the falling Rand we have run into problems with pricing on several titles and unfortunately one of them is World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King. With immediate effect the pre-order price on this title has increased by a maximum of R90.00. I can assure you we have done everything to minimise this increase. Attached please find an updated order confirmation relating the price increase.

:(:(
 
Blah.
Where is the source ??
If BT Games are going to charge me more they can stuff it up their naught.
I mean i have paid the full price already for 2 copies "pre-order" when it was 1st possible to do a pre-order.
 
Haha

I placed my order yesterday for 2 copies at a total of R718. I got the same email this morning... new price R718 (R359X2)
 
And that's why i never pre-order. I have no clue why people fall for this "pre-order" crap when

a] It's late
b] They change the price

and
c] You will find the same thing for cheaper in a random store the day before.


As for it being R500, i guess it's fair if you buy it -right now-, the box is probably $50 @ R10/$ . It's hard to say if the rand will still be like that in a month, might be back to normal, and then what?

No its not R500 unless you're buying the Collector's edition (big w@nk) in which case its like over R600 already.

The R359 is still ok from BT - lets face it: the rand ain't what it used to be. I used to be able to buy a loaf of bread with a million zim dollars... now its a billion!

Click to expand...

I'll pay max R 390 for a copy of the game. Anything more and I'll just move on to other things
 
I havent heard great things about it but then again i havent seen warhammer either.
 
One for me and one for my house mate.

What hacks me though is the orginal wow was around the same price and it included a months game time, the expansion is more expensive and does not include any game time.

hmm, me thinks I should look into just buying a CD if possible if the cd's and crap are not needed. Might work out cheaper...(and quicker)
 
huh

I paid R269 preordered
plus 90 is R360 which is kinda steep but i dont know where u get R500
 
Just got my SMS...goes up with R90 per game...not that bad, but I wish we didn't need to pay it :p
