Me n my frnds are really running out of patience waiting it out, and seeing the xfire status of our frnds from other countries playing MW2 multiplayer is rubbin salt to the ever aggravating injuries:@

Found this on e-bay India :

eBay India: Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (Original New PC Game) (item 180442996801 end time 18-Dec-2009 08:53:18 IST)

we need around 10 copies of the game, so here are my few queries:

1)Is it sensible to shell out this much for the game now(late already)?...will there be problems registering the game frm India as its not released here yet?

2)can we heckle with e-bay dealers?:P , afterall we will be buying 10 units at a time

3)can any of our in-house dealers provide for a better deal?

TIA

mithun da desperate:rofl: .....i heard it gonna release in india with a very high price tag, if thats the case then no need to wait :hap2:
 
Yes, you can message the dealer and ask him for a discount since you'll be buying 10 pieces and further on that use the 10%/15%/20% off discount coupons, since the discount coupons don't affect the seller and he gets his sale price, it doesn't matter to him.

But ask him whether the game will be in original packaging, after all, this is India, we do have people peddling pirated copies openly on Ebay. I'd be sketchy if I was you.
 
A friend of a friend got the Prestige edition for 10k. Dunno where he got it from, don't wanna know either. lol :P
 
well final price we have got is 2.5k. Still not sure if there'll b any probs registering the game from India. The dealer has offered a jenerous 14 days money back offer though
 
its not gonna release this year in india (CHECK IVG). but you already waited a month, wait one more, maybe you'll get it for half the price na?

2599 is a good price if you are getting discs , but just keys can be bought for 2344/- from this link .. G2PLAY.net :: Call of Duty :: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 UNCUT VERSION Steam Key

downloading from steam maynot be a issue as one of you can dl it and rest of you can copy it to steamapps directory.

if you are buying 10 copies then going for key makes sense as that will save you ~255x1=2550 rs.

Keys purchased from such sites keep facing the ban-hammer regularly.
 
actually g2play is a fairly legit site. i've used it quite a few times and i know friends who have used it even more than me. it seems to work just fine. i even know people who bought mw2 from this site with no problems. however, right around launch, some people did in fact have problems with mw2 keys from here.

of course, as a general rule, you're right that buying cd keys falls into a grey area and there is always an element of risk involved. ymmv.
