We had originally been advised by Blizzard that we should expect these around the 18th, but have now been told to expect them this Friday (Xmas Eve). Unfortunately, our warehouse will be closed until after Xmas, so we can't dispatch until then.
We apologise for the delay, we have been assured that the BETA won't start until early Jan 2005, so you should all get them in time.

For those of us lucky enough to snag a CE WoW.

I can't see anything that makes it official, but seems reasonable enough - warehouses being shut over xmas etc.

Thanks

Finally we have some concrete news on whats going on instead of all the speculation and people searching for pre order packs elsewhere.

I guess I won't be messing with WOW some during my time off work over Christmas then :/
