a.) they often charge 2-3 bucks less than retail price (i.e $56.99 instead of $59.99) b.) no tax (so you've saved 6-7 bucks already if you include 'a.)' c.) awesome preorder deals, especially for big games (im getting $30 in e-giftcards after preordering FFXIII and BFBC2) d.) the free shipping is fast (2-3 days, they also offer release date delivery) there really isn't any reason to go to gamestop unless they are running a special deal. | ||

I don't get 'no tax' from amazon... I'm guessing since I'm in NY State. Not sure about other states. Also, sometimes their free shipping is fast, and sometimes it isn't. I find them hit or miss. | ||

I live in Germany, but I want to buy an English version for SC2. What page do you prefer for pre-ordering the game? It would be nice if it's going to arrive at the release day ^^ | ||

US online sales charge you sales tax if the company has a major location (any location?) in your state. Anyway, I'm just going to the store and buying it the day of release. Got a best buy ~1 minute down the road. I doubt they'll sell out and it saves all the hassle of hoping for delivery on time, campus mail to sort through and deliver it, etc. | ||

Dunno if they will allow early downloading or something yea that would be cool if they do what Steam does somtimes.. Allowing you to install the game a few days early but not able to play the game until release day. | ||

DONT do it. lol gamestop will sell it at retail price (FINE) and it will have a midnight launch (earliest you can get the game legally) gamestop is best option imo. | ||
