Remember you can pre-order your copy through the TL store and help support Team Liquid! It's also an easy way to get a beta key! | ||

Seems like no retailer in canada seems to be offering it. I'm also trying to hunt one down in Canada. For WoL Futureshop/Bestbuy did a first come first serve thing and I stood in line at the midnight release. I just got off the phone with EBgames and they said they do preorders for collector's editions and hold the copy for you for 3 days. They also said they would get the SKU to go along with the HotS collector's edition when it was "announced", so I would assume it would be soon. I'm tempted to order from Amazon.com and just pay the ridiculous import fees and extra shipping for peace of mind. I hope someday in the future amazon.ca sells all the good stuff that amazon.com sells. | ||

Amazon wants sales and giving them beta keys is a good way to secure them. If you are buying it from Blizzard, you are already on their site and were going to buy the game anyways. They want to reach the people who are NOT on the SC2 site or TL. That's actually a good marketing plan. Lots of people browse Amazon and just look at what kind of new deals are and what stuff there is. If Amazon gets exclusive beta keys for preorders, then they'll want to hype up the game on their front page (or at least of their PC Games section). Blizzard gets more advertising for the game, Amazon gets more preorders, win win for both of them. | ||
