I did this for 32 years of my life, and it was the worst decision I have ever made. Having a reasonable amount of debt is more beneficial than paying cash for everything.

this^ debt is good, as long as you pay it off. can't get a mortgage without credit. can't build credit without debt. it's when you get too much debt that things go bad.

oh, and, i entered the code, but am not seeing anything redeemable on my account. it's been several hours, do we have to wait until dt?

Hi guys, I've entered my code to redeem items, but keep getting an error message that the code is invalid/been used.......

Any idea how I can sort this out?


Thanks

The codes (one for EVE and one for DUST) will be sent to your email address. The EVE code is redeemable immediately, while the DUST code will be sent out (and made redeemable) very shortly after May 6, when Uprising is deployed.


That will be the email address attached to our Amazon account correct?

Better let my woman know not to delete that one, since we have one account with Prime.

I've got the confirmation email from amazon, but I didn't see any redemption codes or a second email or anything.

If we want the other items but not the pod, is there an option not to use it when the code is used? Are the pod and the non-ship items "consumables" that can be traded?


That's a good question. I'll check with the people implementing the codes for in-game items,

I'll check with Amazon today; it should be sent out in a separate email later this week. Will post here as soon as I know the exact date.

So what's with Australian players being forced to buy it in eur rather than us dollars. It makes it a lot more expensive for us.

Hello.

Any word on allowing out-of-US shipping for the Collector's Edition via Amazon?

IIRC this is a merchant instruction and not an Amazon limitation. Plenty of Amazon stores support overseas shipping. Got my D3 and Skyrim Collector's editions and many other games this way.

I have emailed the folk running the eve store, and their response is that they will not be adding my country to their list of supported destinations in the foreseeable future. They even asked me to get someone in the US to buy it for me.

I do not have that luxury.

Can you put it on the UK amazon, I don't want to buy it in Euros. Horrible currency, looking forward to its collapse.

I was wondering if it will be released on amazon.ca someday, as amazon.com does not ship to Canada.

I'm also interested if the pod is a one-time item. It doesn't make much sense if it's a one-time thing since you would see it for a fraction of a second but again, confirmation either way would be wonderful


It is a permanent modification.

Is it account- or character-based?

When can we expect the codes? If we order today from Amazon, will we get the codes in a matter of hours/days/months?

Let's say that I wanted to hang onto the codes to sell them i the future. Do the codes ever expire? Or if I decide to redeem a code for a gold pod during, say, Eve's 20th anniversary, will it still work?

There's the link to the buy page if anyone needs to know.


Yes it will -- same preorder items as on our store.

Correct preorder descriptions will be set up very shortly Smile

Hi Kristopher,
thank you for your message.
The pre-order bonus items are only available for Eve Store customers.
Sorry.

Best regards,
Henning

Your Musterbrand Service Team




Is he misinformed or has the policy on the pre-order bonus for amazon changed?

So any chance of this coming to Game or Amazon.co.uk for UK customers, eventually?
