I live in an EB Game....so theres alot of copies....

Well, around here no game shops have even heard of the pre-release pack let alone have any in stock. All you get is a blank stare and an offer to pre-order the game. A few very nearly accused me of lying when I explained what the pre-release pack is.
thelessa
Not a single copy to be had in my town.
Petrus
well here in norway they still have it on cdon.com if you buy the ce edition. they also mail the keys to you..(got mine yesterday)..
Sora
Not even a single copy here as well, so a friend bought me one somewhere in US.
Knightsaber Sith
Well on release day, I got to Compusa an hour after they opened and my copy was the third to last. But I went to Bestbuy a few days ago and now they have like three shelves of the things.

CA.. bestbuy was saying they aren't doing presale anymore.. lol, just gunna order it online~
Terra Xin
at the time I had pre-ordered mine, they had none in stock, it took them a week though. I'm from NZ so its no big deal.

No where near to be found in Belgium.

Where I am (victoria, australia) there wasn't enough pre-orders for Factions, but there were much more of them for Nightfall, so I was happy when I picked up mine
Phoenix_Darkwater
I pre ordered Nightfall from EB about 3 weeks ago (The pre-release packs are not even available off the shelf here), apparently they ran out of pre release packs and would "try to get more in". Rang them up several times and no luck, there now claiming it was a limited edition deal and its likely I will miss out on it now.. More then slightly pissed off about this to be honest. This is in Queensland Australia BTW.
FalconDance
None in central Missouri that I've been able to find. And Amazon is only carrying those from outside sellers which are ranging from $9.99 to $24.99, depending on the week.
So far, major suckage value. Not looking good for this family's three copies.....

That's funny, my local game mania store had several, and my local Fnac ( in Leuven ) sold them at 1 eurocent each, if you buy 100...you can play 1000 hours of CH1 and 2 for just 1 euro. My friend went to buy 1, and the guy asked:wanna have the rest too? There are plenty in my town...( Fnac was a bit late though )

I got accidently two pre-order packs with CE copy reservation for free. The store is located in Finland. They said that they have plenty of them but didn't expect them to send two. Giving another key to one of my guild members.

GAME in sweden has(had?) pre-order disks for free. But there where no signs or pre-order boxes on the sales-floor.
And the nearby EB-games closed down (now only one EB-games left in town).
So could be an abundance of pre-order disks (at GAME) or very few so only those interested (aka ask for pre-order) in Nightfall get one.

Fry's in Concord, CA had about 10 last week, but the local Best Buy had a big fat zero last time I was there. When Factions came out, the situation was similar: they had nothing until release day, and really didn't seem prepared. I would love to do a local survey, but my husband would disapprove. lol
Edit: Went to the local BB today, and as usual, and as expected, they had nothing. Loads of WOW stuff, but nothing for NF. Electronics Boutique, in the mall, is a sad joke when it comes to PC games.

I live in IL and the Fry's where i got mine had around 10 left. I just went to a BB by me and they had around 5 of them just laying their. So Chi town had plenty of Pre-release pack, at least in my part of town.
Lord Aro
Found none until yesterday, cost 35 bucks. Didn't ask if it was applied like a preorder should be, just left the Best Buy. Will probably have to go back seeing as no other places have any. Alberta, Ca. [Edit: It does count to the final cost, called to asked. Would have been silly if it didn't...]
When I called around people didn't have a clue what I was talking about.
Just checked, bestbuy.ca finally has Nightfall listed.

Fry's Electronics in Oxnard California has several Pre Order Packs.
EB Games (6 locations in Ventura County California) has no clue.
Best Buy said they have them ordered but has not received them.
Comp USA has them listed in inventory but does not see them on the shelves.
Outpost.com won't send the pre order packs until Nightfall release Oct 26.
I live in Ventura County so the listings I have here are for Ventura County Areas only.

Pensacola, Fl EB Games got theirs in about a week after the actual PBP release. To those that pre-ordered, or possibly the regulars as I'm always there bothering them, they were given free. They now started charging $5 for them.
The local Best Buy has two things offered. The Pre-Order for $10, which does go towards your copy of NF. And they offer the PBP serperately for $9 which does not give you credit towards purchase of NF. Not sure if the PBP are still stocked, but they did offer the pre-order till about 2 weeks ago and the PBP has only been avaliable for around 1 week there.
Target hasnt gotten theirs in yet, I work there and know when the preorder packs come in. Theirs usually sit on the new release end-cap and pre-orders and trials run from $.99-$1.99.

Wollongong, NSW, Australia EB. Claimed they got no additional pre-release packs to hand out. They received one for someone who pre-ordered earlier and they send a pack especially for him but as it was "first come first served" they couldn't get me one. All other stores on in South Coast/South Sydney had very few or none to begin with so had none by the time I got there one week after the pre-release pack was available (stores: Shellharbour, Warrawong, Miranda).
I took Hurstville's last pack about a week after failing to get one in Wollongong. I was able to get a second from a Sydney Pitt St store just last weekend.
All displayed the "get a pre-order bonus" poster even if they had no pre-order packs remaining.
It seems that the distribution in Sydney was based on store location/popularity rather than previous preorders from the location.

There were plenty in my part of the UK. About 20 in both Game(£1.99 ea), 10 in GameStation(free), and a few in HMV. And that was only a few days ago, so they havnt been running out really.
Amity and Truth
Saturn in Gummersbach (Germany / NRW) had 3 pieces of it. 1 after we left the store. But supply seemed to be pretty low on Guildwars there. They had however like 30 pieces of WoW but not a single piece of Guildwars Prophecies and only one of Factions.
It's actually quite hard to buy GuildWars in Germany outside of the large cities and even there, it's often sold out after half an hour.

Neither of the GameStops in Chico, CA had any idea what I was talking about... one then proceeded to try to sell me an xbox game... I don't own an xbox...
The bestbuy didn't have any when I last checked.
I just decided to buy online... Sure, I wont recieve it until the 28th, but oh well. Have midterms the next week anyways.
Should study probably.

Well, that depends on If Wal-Mart is supposed to be carrying them or not. Personally, I live a long ways away from any actual electronics stores, the only places I have access to (And I am not making a 1-2 hour drive for a prerelease pack, unless I have another reason to be making that drive in the first place) are Wal-Mart, Fred Meyer, etc.
Quid Pro Quo
Got one at best buy but then ended up getting one for free with my pre-order, hah! I will probably just give it to a friend or somesuch.
