Ladies and gentlemen, I have a CD key for the Explorer's Pack.
I've discovered that if you legitimately purchase these keys from retailers who stockpiled them, you can have the Explorer's Pack applied to your account as though you pre-Ordered the game yourself. I know this because I did it myself a couple of days ago. I'll admit it sounds very fishy, but as the keys cost like five dollars or so from internet retailers I decided, what is the harm, I could give it a shot. So I did.
It did require a call to the customer service desk, but they're rather helpful. When I called, they verified the CD key for me, and then applied it to my account, just like that. Took less than twenty minutes start to finish. Now, I get the benefits.
I'm not 100% sure of the ethics, but they seemed fine with it when I explained I'd gone to the trouble of tracking one of the keys down and after they'd verified it was a valid key. And the ability to make ANY race for ANY alliance is certainly an RP boon that I greatly appreciate.
The reason I am mentioning all this (and giving brief instructions) is because I bought one too many codes and am feeling reasonably generous.
Is there anyone who would be interested in this? I only have one more.
