So I live in Perth, Western Australia. I'm looking at re-creating 3-4 accounts to multibox using the new RAF benefits (last night with 2 trial accounts I made 10 levels in 2h 30min) since it looks like Blizz are refusing to apply the changes retroactively I'm looking into creating the new accounts and cutting my losses on the old accounts. Obviously I'll have to purchase the 'upgrades' either online or via battlechest.
Online upgrade to vanilla wow:
28/07/2008BLIZZARD-ENT*ELECU 800-592-5499 CA USA
$21.46
28/07/2008BLIZZARD-ENT*ELECU 800-592-5499 CA USA
$21.46
28/07/2008BLIZZARD-ENT*ELECU 800-592-5499 CA USA
$21.46

Cheapest I've been able to find a battlechest is $ 44.30 + shipping.

If I upgrade online I can spend time levelling this weekend, probably hit 30 without an issue if I get the battlechest online I'll have to wait Until next week. If I can get it at a shop cheaper I'll probably get it tonight.
any help is appreciated :)

Although this may not be the best (nor most trusted) thing to do.
You could get a friend in the US to buy the games, e-mail you the codes and paypal him the cash. They are only $30 US at Best-Buy in the US atm. Or if you don't have any good friends in game to do this, possibly someone with a good reputation with a little bit extra thrown in from how much you're saving.

I previously bought 4 new accounts 2 weeks ago, no raf bonus, so off i went to get new accounts.

After alot of shopping around I bought 4x battlechests last night from JB hifi (adelaide) for only $39 each (EB games still has them at $69 lol)

Hey guys, I live in Sydney. I'm new to boxing but have created a fair few accounts in my time due to what I used to be into before boxing.....(this is the disclaimer so it doesnt appear that what I'm suggesting is an advertisement)

I always use shop4gaming for all my keys and gamecards. Delivery is always within an hour (by email) and prices are better than retail Australia, although $40 retail is cheap for battleshest IMO.

Dont be afraid of the online sites, the popular ones are legit and cheaper than Australian shops and you dont have to leave the house.

Vanilla WoW at AU$19 is cheapest by far I've yet seen.
The BC WoW at AU$34 is a little more expensive than ordering online

If the battle chest is AU$39 each then that is again by far the cheapest I've seen.
hrmm... "Offer ends Monday 28th Jul 2008." at the bottom of that page...

I might check it out tonight on my way home from work anyhow :)
