Title: Wrath of the Lich King Beta Key up for auction
Post by: Malygris on October 15, 2008, 07:46:49 PM
Okay, here's the deal: I have one official World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King beta key. Long story short, I don't play the game and have no use for the key, so after giving it a wee tiny bit of thought I decided to turn this little string of text to a good purpose. Thus, this.

The plan here is to put the key up for a few days, say until this weekend, for auction. Winner makes a donation to RFG in the amount of the winning bid, and when I get the word from the admins that the donation has gone through, you get the key. Quick and easy.

Send bids to me in PM, if you happen to have any questions you can PM them too or post them here. Bid amounts (but not names) will be posted in this thread as they come.

And if you have any concerns about this being on the up-and-up, feel free to drop by our (almost) official RF Generation chat channel at #rfgeneration on QuakeNet and say hello. I'm kind of a fixture. (You can also check with TraderJake, St0rmTK421 or most of the other admins, but that's not nearly as social.)

Bidding starts at ten bucks. It's for a good cause, so don't be cheap!

Great initiative! Anything's good to get more people to donate. :)

But I think this should be moved to Sales Extravaganza. ;)

A little bit late, WoTLK is out in a month.

Cool with me. I asked another RFG honcho who shall go unnamed (but but it rhymes with JaderTrake) and he either didn't know or ignored me. I can't remember. Anyway, I blame him.

So can we get it moved?

As for it being too late, it happens when it happens. A few bucks gets you a month's preview of the thing. Otherwise, it'll just go to waste.

Lmao! :D The way you wrote that just cracked me up.  :laugh:

If nobody thinks it's worth $10 then just lower the price to $5, I'm sure sombody will bite. :)
(Don't look at me though, I don't play WoW)

Come on, it's a cheap donation! Surely somebody out there was going to pony up anyway could squeeze in a few more bucks for a Lich King beta key!

it's kinda late to try to get a key out but just to let you know i had an ex guildie try to give me his key and it is bound to your acct so unless you are ponying up your acct info its not worth it aye.

I don't have an account, this one is free to be tied to any account.

But as you say, it's a bit late in the game and apparently there's no interest, so... sorry RFG. :( Guess I'll have to throw some copper your way myself.
