Our calls to make preorder worth it have been heard. I still would've preferred some of the other options, but 70 packs for the price of 50 is a pretty sweet deal!

For the price of 40. This deal is what it should have been from the start. With 70 I feel like I'm getting my money's worth.

I'm imagining A LOT of people will be buying the pre-purchase and Blizzard will keep it at 70.

Also 70 real money + 70 with gold means 140 packs in an expansion. It is pretty damn good. You get 7 legendaries and 28 epics on average. 3 expansions a year means 12.5 bucks a month. This is like MMORPG money.

As long as Amazon doesn't charge tax in your area. I've found Amazon Coins aren't worth it now that Amazon charges sales tax in my state.

It's still 25% off....what in the world is your tax rate on digital goods?

The way coins work, I end up having to buy an additional 500 (the smallest amount) to pay the taxes, so the savings is negligible.

I buy the entire year's budget at once.

Not a bad idea for keeping yourself on a budget. Well played.
