Just saw this on JB Hifi website, seems they still have some CE available. Also pretty good price for standard edition too.

    THANK YOU A MILLION!!
    I've been looking for one
    All the retail stores are out of stock.
    All the online stock was out of stock.

    Now I found this at cheaper price than others
    I feel like I've been redeemed xD

      hey people,

      Diablo CE might seem like it's SOLD OUT but it isn't when you click 'order online' it just takes you to the standard edition page.

      what you need to do is search the jb website for Diablo and then find the Diablo CE. then click ADD cart.

      or just click this link
      http://www.jbhifionline.com.au/game/pc-games/diablo-3-collec...

      mod please update.

    YES! For lazy bastards such as myself who forget about pre-ordering.

    Can anyone tell me how long I should expect to wait for delivery considering this item is "On Order" and JB are awaiting stock?

      Well given the game is released on 15 May you should be waiting until at least then - you just pre-ordered.

    •  
      elamo on 25/04/2012 - 11:37

      I don't think it will be on release day. Best bet is the next day or day after that. I'd put money on the next day.

      US$60 doesn't include tax, so you're already at $66 if you buy it in Australia, and that doesn't even take into account the higher cost of handling from Australian workers. $69 is more than reasonable.

        lostn on 25/04/2012 - 14:46

        OZBers don't really care about reasons for why things are priced as such. They just want the cheapest price possible.

        I agree that $69 is a reasonable price for a locally purchased title.

        Although, Starcraft 2 launched for $60 shipped at Dick Smith. I'd probably look there when it comes out if buying locally.

        •  
          batiudrami on 25/04/2012 - 19:39

          Well, sure, but if all you care about is price, buy it from PlayAsia and get it over with. This is local stock, and you're barely paying any extra compared to the US. We're not getting ripped off for video games like usual.

          Dick Smith amputated their games division, or has everyone forgotten the recent debacle already?

          tommyc on 30/04/2012 - 17:16

          Agree for consumer products, for 'things' - electronics, gifts and luxury items.

          However this line of thinking should not be the same for food. Specifically unprocessed food items you'd traditionally buy from a greengrocer or frozen section.

          You can now buy 1KG of Heinz baked beans from Coles. The product has "Made in Germany from imported ingredients". Imported from where and under what conditions? How does purchasing that affect local producers and Australia's ability to produce the same item?

          Enjoy Diablo :P

        It's more accurate to say that the frothing loons who post about how "Australian games are expensive! GRRR!!!" completely ignore how Sales Tax in almost every American State adds 10% while ours includes GST, amongst many other expenses to ship to Australians.

        •  
          alwayseric on 25/04/2012 - 17:41

          Add 10% and shipping, buying from America is still much cheaper than from local, most of time. I am talking about everything, not just D3

    How many of you pre-purchased from Zavii http://www.zavvi.com/games/platforms/pc/diablo-3/10042969.ht...?

    They have £38.94 (~$60) incl. shipping - but not sure when i will receive it? Although i know their delivery time is fast, ~5-7 days.

    •  
      jazoom on 25/04/2012 - 08:47

      Or you can go here: http://www.ozgameshop.com/pc-games/diablo-iii-3-game-pc-and-...

      They have it for $54.99 (~$54.99) incl. shipping. Also delivered from UK. I bought it for $52.99 a little while ago, but they've since increased the price a bit.

      •  
        viento on 25/04/2012 - 09:00

        Aha. I have bought so many dvds and few games and few accessories from zavii with great delivery time, rarely waiting for 6 or more than 7 days, that's why i refer to them. How is ozgameshop's delivery time?

          I don't know about delivery time. This is the first time I've ordered with them, but I hope it's fast.

          @cap_n: You can choose which server to play on. You will be region-locked with the RMAH. As there will be no Australian server the RMAH for us is North America's server, I believe.

          I'm under the impression that the RMAH will lock to the region in which you ACTIVATE the game.

    Just looking at my T&Cs on the receipt:

    "Order Now - On Order
    If your item is marked "ORDER NOW " at the time of ordering and is listed as "ON ORDER" on this email, it will need to be ordered directly from supplier. Most local suppliers deliver to us within 4 business days. Smaller suppliers can take 1-2 weeks and import items can take up to 12 weeks. Once arrived, we will aim to have your item picked and packed within 1-2 business days. You will receive an email confirmation once it ships. Please then allow for standard Australia Post. Delays may occur around Christmas, Easter and public holidays.
    "

    how would we know if JB would honor this and have this sent out on-time? would they hold onto my money for weeks?
