I'm looking to get my hand on a full version US product key of LOTRO.

Was browsing the LOTOR webpages in search of a way to get it, and found This page.

A link here lead to a page with links to places i can buy the reatil verions of the game.

If I have to get the retail version I'm gonna need some help getting it, as I'm not sure I can get it myself even online.

I'll ask on the forums and let you know what i find out. I can only assume they have a relatively pain-free method of upgrading from trial to retail... just not sure what it is.

Faq says you have to buy a retail key but does not say if you can purchase an upgrade to your account.

Question is whether or not the key from EU retail version of the game works on the US client. If it does, you shoyld be able to pick the game up locally... if not, then we'll figure something out. Worst case scenario is one of us can pick your copy up locally and PM you the activation key.

a customer service rep responded with this...

=============================

Greetings Salvatoris,

For your friend to upgrade his US account, you will need a US product key, which are only available in boxes. Your friend can order the game online, and have it shipped, but I recommend checking different retailers policies regarding foreign orders. For a list of official retailers, click here.

If you have any other questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to reply.

So... looks like you will have to order a copy from someone that will ship it to you.. or ship it to one of us so we can send you the code then put the box in the mail... avoiding an interuption of service.

Placed and order at Amazon which seems to have gone through.

I use a Debit card for payment, and have had some issues with it previously, so I'll wait a day to see how it goes.

If all goes well I should have the game by the 29th

Just recived the confirmation E-mail today.

Package is on it's way.

Wow, You guys paid $45.00 for the game. I am assuming that it's pay to play too ?

I paid 53 after taxes and yes its 15 a month to play...

I paid 66.67 after tax and shipping

I got it on sale a few weeks ago for $39.99. You get the first 30 days "free" of a monthly charge.

I paid 49 bucks each for 2 coppies, but since we pre-ordered our monthly fee is only 9.99 each. :)

Game has arrived, and a day early even
Subscription has been upgraded.
It's time to rock.
