Guild Wars 2

Now I’m very, very positive I am not the only one wondering about this, especially since we already know this is going to be done. But with gem store cards that we can buy from retailers, when can we expect to see those go onto shelves at our local walmarts/gamestops/best buys?

So far the only information we have on them is “More information will be posted about this at a later date” but when exactly is that? We are over a month into the game’s release and I’m getting a little antsy because I do want to go out and spend like $20-$40 on some of those cards.

All I’m suggesting is give us an update or something, even if it just involves you telling us the order for them is going through to such and such companies to produce them or whatever.

They will have these things? Woo hoo! Too late for today (I’m asking my husband for gems for my birthday and I guess he’ll have to transfer some money into my account to make that work) but I have guildies I’d love to give gems without having to do money transfers.

Will these be physical cards or will it be possible to do them online? It would be awesome to be able to do it via the ANet account, just put in the other person’s account name and have gems show up in their account after I pay for them.

If there’s some way that could be abused, please weigh in.

Well the cards would be able to be bought from a retailer, like Gamestop, which means they would come with a code that you put into a box in the Gem Store to redeem it and get the gems.

With the way that works it would be fairly easy to just give someone you want to buy gems for the code from that card and poof, all set.

My local gamestop already has those so I think it’s not a problem for game stores to get them.

What state are you in? Because here in MN those gem cards are not available at the following stores I have called Best Buy, Game Stop, Target and Walmart.
