The answer is simple... I play World of Warcraft (WOW) and the brand new expansion pack came out in America today called: Wrath of the Lich King. I can't get it here in China... So what do you do? You realize that your birthday is coming up and ask for it as a gift since you're halfway across the world!
Basically all I you'd have to do is for someone to purchase the game (Regular version is $39.99 / Collector's Edition is $69.99) open it, EMAIL me the cdkey which is what upgrades my account and then store the game box somewhere until I get back to the States next-year.
I REALLY really really want the Collector's Edition, but as a birthday gift, I'd be fine w/ the Regular edition too.
So how bout it? :)
