LOL - I was getting excited that there was another steelbook.

My CE shipped today from the US, hopefully it does arrive in about two weeks

I received my Collector's Edition 2 days ago, sadly there seems to be a huge production error, a lot of people are missing items, which are mostly the booklets which should be in the DVD case(this contains also the serial key on the manual), and i'm one of them, the collector's edition is quite nice though i didn't expect the statue to be stone, here's a picture:

More stores stocked this...seems this is not as "limited" as they claimed...I expect more price drops like Oblivion, to which I say ouch for those that bought it thinking its "truly limited".

I even went to the Best Buy near me and they have about 6 or 7 sitting on the shelves.

Newegg, Best Buy, Walmart, Kmart, QVC ($10 more expensive) stocked hundreds of these... Of course the price people have to wait for paying a few dollars less (say $50 at best case scenario ever) is waiting until next year...

In my opinion, as a collector, if you want something (especially a MMO that is so time dependent unlike Skyrim or singleplayer games), it's best to just get it now. In the end you save $50, but it's as if you just pay $1 a day to get it earlier. Besides, it's not like you aren't already paying $14.99 a month anyways for the game for however long you play it...

Titles like this I severely doubt will drop to $79.99 like Killzone 3 from 129.99 (which was also $50 at most and $60 drop at other retailers without tax). I can see Old Republic at $95-$99 at most price-drop wise unless it really remains on shelves THAT long.

Well, here in Spain this edition is really limited. You could get one only preordering it so...if you found one on the shelves of a store, consider yourself a truly lucky guy.

Oh! And I was one of those lucky guys because I got the last one in all Madrid because the ignorance of the seller. He didn´t know what was this "box" so he didn´t put it on the shelves, just stored it. I asked him about this edition and he showed me "something really rare that they received that morning that maybe could be what I was looking for".

But try looking for it in the rest of the country. You won´t have such luck because there are none of them. The only way to get one now is buying it on online shops. Price? "Just" 200 euros

I only saw this game available in store at Toysrus. It is weird because it was exclusive to Gamestop in Canada. I guess some of the shipment came from USA and the collector edition was available to preorder from Toysrus.com.

This won't be released until around March next year for Oz/NZ, so I'm wondering if they'll give us a CE to play with or just miss out on it?? [if they do release the CE here, it shouldn't be anymore than AU$200]

[Resseh]

I wonder if the price will drop on this soon - still for sale on Game.co.uk
