  Still a shortage, eh?  To tell you the truth, they have a TON around here in Chicago.

  Yeah I eventually had to break down and order it off EBgames myself. Circuit City, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Game Stop, everywhere been dry since before Christmas.  I ordered it next day air and and it actually got here the next day! I thought it might take longer for the 24 hour processing but it got here on Friday! Thank god, I would have cried if I woulda had to wait till Monday. Watch out though, they ship it FedEx so be careful.

  All the EB game stores around me have it as well as 1/2 of the Best Buy stores.  I believe that certain stores and certain cities they sent too many copies too.  Essentially the larger the metro area the more copies they got.  However, there are not as many people here that wanted WoW as other places.  So no copies in one city (or state) and plenty in places like Chicgo, Houston, LA, San Diego, etc.

  you are probably right, problem is in all the areas that did sell out Blizzard isn't sending them any new copies. So that leaves alot of us in a bind.

  Bought mine the fourth day it came out and I even had a hard time finding a copy. Considering I live in southern texas where there isn't much of an audience for these types of games, I was surprised I didn't have to travel a bit before I could get the game.3 of my friends just got it recently and are super pissed they cannot create an account.

  I would be, too considering I spent $50 to get the game in the first place.
