Was on the hunt for Heart of the Swarm on the cheap and didn't want to mess around with improper regioning. Came across HotS for $37 and jumped on it!
There are a number of different payment options available, however there is a 3% surcharge with all credit/debit cards.
I can verify that the code will work if you originally bought Starcraft II in Australia or South East Asia. I bought off this site and thought I'd give you lovely OzBargainers the heads up. Enjoy!
yeap and yeap
wasn't the rrp suppose to be 40usd?
its more like $50
48 at EB
44 and JB big W etc
$38 at Video Ezy/WOWHD
these are all boxed versions im talking about not cd key prices
You still need to download a 7gig update as soon as you install though, so it's kind of negligible (for me at least).
Just waiting on my key now, what's the estimated wait?
Received my key after a call from the guys at the website. Didn't realise I had to confirm my number so if you don't receive your key contact them in Live Chat.
It's up to you if the CC surcharge and phone call are worth the $5 discount from the Big W price…
EDIT: It's a 13.7 gig download for those interested.
You can also do it through the integrated customer service chat IM
Or you can just buy it through Battle.net for AUD$44.95 and save yourself a trip to Big W.
However you miss out on the massive $8 saving.
SEA is South East Asia, yes?
And SC2: Wings of Liberty is required for this?
