Ruroken wroteNemesis, pcandparts are buying the digital version, not even the real version with the box. Don't think there is a shortage when it comes to the digital downloadable versions, and that's why im saying they're ripping people off. The fact they didn't email me or anything is also a negative sign and bad service.

By the way, i'm an old customer of pcandparts and i always purchase things from them, first time i get disappointed by their service.

hey booboo, rules of thumb, high demand prices go up, should be back to normal when demand is back to normal
check USA websites that sells online games price is now $85 , best thing to do is get directly from blizzard if you have the means , the only thing ripping you off is your mind :O

i think im having tears of joy

You didn't read what i wrote? The price for the US version on Blizzard website is still $59.99. It doesn't make sense that pcandparts raised the price of the US version, especially since its a digital version. Please, read all my comments before replying. You live in Lebanon, the only thing ripping you off is EVERYONE ;).

what the hell, this sucks, collectors edition is only available in limited quantity, and its already sold out on websites, only a few in retail stores,i hate it when they won't ship to middle east, no store here gets the collectors edition either :(

Anddddd just purchased my copies from the Blizzard store. US version for $60. And yes, price hasn't increased despite the high demand.

Wise guy, you completely missed my point. Sigh.

Pcandparts are selling the digital version of the game. You do realize what that means, right? If the price increased on Blizzard's website then it makes sense for pcandparts to increase the price by that much. But prices are still the same, so it makes no sense to me to pay extra if i'm getting the same digital version. I would completely understand if it was a hard copy with it's box. Not to mention that i pre-ordered the game so i can play it on launch day and so far pcandparts didn't even drop me an email concerning the price increase, so if i wait for them, most probably i won't be playing it this week.

Anyways, purchased the game for $60 last night from the official website, downloaded the client in one night and now i'm ready to play.

Why do i keep checking this thread? <.< i haven't received my key yet, i'll get it in a few hours and all these posts are teasing me to death:(
About the pcandparts thing, i'm surprised they didn't you an email Ruroken, i myself received 2 emails actually, i remember i sent them 2 emails regarding the game, one for a question and one for pre-order, and i ordered asap when i received the email, i guess i got lucky getting it for a low price now, to be honest, i personally would have preferred not getting it this way, but i was having bad issues downloading the installer, and i wasn't sure if virgin was gonna get it or not so i decided to go the safe road. Unfortunately, pre-ordering it through pcandparts still makes u wait 2 days till u get the game, and there's already people who are level 60 :(

can we buy a pirated version and then purchase a key from blizzard guys?

Well actually, i can't purchase the game digitally and i had trouble with the installer download, so my only option was to get it through pcandparts for my part as i said in the above post, i personally wouldn't pay 70+ for it, i'd just wait the price to drop low till end of week as they suggested or search virgin for a boxed copy. Some people like me have no way of buying the game digitally and it's only way to get the game via sites like pcandparts, are we getting scammed? yes maybe, but if there's an easier and faster choice, people would take it. We live in "bad" country, it's sadly expected of things like this to happen, and if someone is desperate enough they would pay the extra lot.

Well that's kinda what pissed me off. I pre-ordered the game long ago and i expected them to inform me of any updates, even if it's price increase. I had to know from some friends in Tripoly that pcandparts increased prices. Not to mention, that on the website, it didn't mention that it's the digital version, pcandparts mentioned that few days ago which also came as a surprise to me but didn't change my mind back then. But now with the delay and increase in price, it didn't make sense to me to wait for them any longer so i purchased it from the official site.

I'm angry cz i'm disappointed, and that's basically cz i love pcandparts and i've been a customer for a long time now. Anyways, hope they send you your copy soon so you can join the fun :)

ballad wrotecan we buy a pirated version and then purchase a key from blizzard guys?

Your question is a little bit vague. Not sure if i understood it, but what i know is that the key is what costs $60. As for the client it's for free and you can even download it now. Hope i didn't misunderstood what you said.

A couple of friends received their copies from pcandparts yesterday at 10.30AM,same day as release
i ended buying it from blizzard

that's odd, i had to confirm my order like 5 times with each price change on pre-release, and i had to give final confirmation when they had it release which i did asap when i got the emails from them yesterday early morning, and i actually asked pcandparts to send me the copy yesterday, they actually ignored that line and told me i'll receive it today anyway, not too happy about this part, but doesn't matter now, what's done is done i guess.
