The /bonus command will spawn bonus items if you have a pre-ordered copy/collector's edition of the game, this I know.
I was wondering if it was possible for an account that was purchased before these came out (or that wasn't pre-ordered) to obtain these items. I mean, is it possible for me to go out and buy a collector's edition of prohpecies/factions/whatever, add it to my account (even if I already have factions or whatnot) and get the command?

Long answer: Yes, but it'll be a pain to find them. Especially the NF/Faction pre-order items. I've been looking for those for quite a while. I got lucky with the EOTN and found it on amazon.

You mean the collector editions right? 2 questions:
1) If I get a collector's edition for any campaign, will it unlock it account-wide, or for characters native to that campaign?
2) Say I buy the EotN collector's edition version. I already have that key added to my account. Can I still add this one and overwrite it somehow?
Thanks.

Don't think they made CE for EotN, but for the others, you'll get the bonus features for your account just as anyone else with a CE would. Just don't buy opened/second-hand items, as those key's will be in use already, so you won't be able to add them.

Thank you very much, I'll keep that in mind. That ought to be it.

Like others if you buy ... if your N/A... trilogy pack will also give you items /bonus items plus fire imp also
EU its compilation pack..... the EU are better they get eye of north included also unlike NA.
So a player with only one campaign this is the way to go.
Works out a long way cheaper than buying individual ones and adding

I'd say yes because the key adder recognizes keys not in use already, and unique, that do not match ones you already have used (or anyone else for that matter). So being that, I'm almost 100% sure it will still add to your account. It would be a bit of a waste, but it's your money, not mine.
(More into detail
say the code is "oA95" for your current acc.
the CE is "oB96".
oB
and oA are different.
95 and 96 are different. They don't match so it should add. It's like filling in the blanks sorta.

When you add an access key from a CE edition to your account it adds the CE-only features without changing anything else.
The same if you add a key from Game of the Year Prophecies or a pre-order pack. You get the special items, but your characters otherwise are the same.

Does not matter in what order you add the access keys. If its added onto your account(be it a CE, GoTY or pre-order key), you will get the bonuses from them.
And yes, a key from a CE will overwrite a key from a standard edition. You will get all the bonuses from said CE, but the original key will be treated as if it never existed(can't use it again on another account either).
Bonus items are also account-wide, but they will be spawned customized to the character you're on when you type /bonus(except the special bonus items, like mini-pets, those are on time only and received through /special).

The in-game store sells the GotY Upgrade pack. It gives you the /bonus items that came with the GotY edition, without having to buy the campaign again.
The only way to get the /bonus stuff from the CE's, however, would be to buy them somewhere (if you can find one with an unused key) and add the key(s) to your account.

The CE's however have some dance special glowing thing and are REALLY REALLY EXPENSIVE nowadays, if you even can find one still!!!!!!!!!
