As I write this (April 27, 4:30pm EDT), there is no mention of Factions being buyable online at PlayNC's site. Their "store" page doesn't even seem to have been updated in weeks. Does anyone know for certain when they will start selling Factions retail keys?

The prophecies campaign can be bought online. I think it is just a matter of time until they make it available for Factions.

They will sell a access key for Factions.
This Is From An Email From Thier Support Staff To Me About The Key.

"(name),

Thank you for contacting the Guild Wars Support Team. Yes, the option to purchase a Guild Wars Factions Access Key will be available from the "PURCHASE CODE" link in the "Online Serial Codes" section of your PlayNC account management page. However, that option will not be available until Factions has officially been released.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Regards,
The Guild Wars Support Team"

They just sent me this message. All bad news, I'm afraid.

Thank you for contacting us.

At this time we are not offering Guild Wars Factions serial codes through our PlayNC store or through the PURCHASE CODE link in your PlayNC master account. We would like to recommend to keep an eye on the PlayNC store for any updates or changes to this.

Well, the factions keys are up now, unfortunately PlayNC is a bunch of idiots.

I bought 1 copy of GuildWars several months ago using my Visa. I then bought another copy of guildwars 2 days ago, and it wouldn't let me buy it with my Visa so I had to use my MasterCard. For whatever reason, they won't let you buy more than ONE cd-key per credit card. Now I want to buy Factions (a 3rd cd-key) and I'm out of credit cards...here's the message I get:

You have exceeded the maximum number of online code purchases. Please contact [email protected] if you have a need to purchase additional codes.

Apparently PlayNC is making so much money they don't have a need for repeat customers. REDICULOUS!

Where did you find Factions on the PlayNC site? The only links I can find take me to sites for the pre-order...

Go to the "PURCHASE CODE" LINK from your master account management page (edit: from the http://www.plaync.com page, click on "account", then "sign in", and then the "PURCHASE CODE" link will be right about your old GW keys). You can buy a retail key and add it now. I just did it.

YAY!!!!
