The only problem with buying online from the Blizzard site is if it doesn't work! The EU one has been down for a while now, with no indication as to when it'll come back:



We're sorry but there has been an error with your request.

If you are attempting to purchase World or Warcraft online, please be advised that the online upgrade feature is unavailable while some improvements are being made to the system. However, accounts can still easily be upgraded to retail accounts by purchasing a boxed copy of World of Warcraft- available at retailers everywhere.
*sigh*
I created and upgraded my refer a friend accounts last night with no problem (EU server).
