Dragon Age Inquisition: Inquisitor's Edition...HELP!
#1

I am a long time supporter of dragon age and to have missed this opportunity has left me devastated. Is there anything that can be done about this? I already bought the inquisitor strategy guide with all the bells and whistles, but it won't be the same with a deluxe edition. If their is anyone in the bioware company or anyone for the matter that can help me get one...I'd be truly happy. Ps3 or Ps4 all the way.
This edition is very important to me and my collection. My love for the games are real. I hope you see that while reading.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Limited run blues. You're most likely boned. Your best recourse is to go to your local Gamestop and see if you can grab an Inquisitor's edition someone didn't pick up, usually if you pre-order then have a chat, they'll let you hold for 48hours and if one becomes available, you can upgrade. It happens more often than you think, as people put down the min deposit (Usually $5) and then forget about the game entirely, or come up short release week and have to downgrade.
Either that or jump on Ebay and grab one at a considerable markup. There's bound to be ones there.

It's not the fault of the developers, but of some huge screw-up by a marketing department by choosing Gamestop as exclusive and having a very limited supply. Most of Europe has been screwed in advance by not having Gamestop stores in most countries (and shipping abroad is very hard, apparently...?) Actually, as far as I understood the whole world, apart from the US, were denied to get full access to all versions of DA:I.
Check the forum (especially news and announcements) for a lot of rage regarding the IE edition... At least you're not alone.

You can still buy the Inquisitor's Edition in several countries. They only ship within their own country, but if you know someone there, you could have it shipped to them and then ask them to ship to you. After a few quick searches, it seems Inquisitor's Editions are still available on Gamestop UK (all versions) and Italy (PC version only), EBgames Australia (PC, PS4, and Xbox One), and Micromania in France (owned by Gamestop). I'm sure it should also be available in other countries.
That's pretty much your only option besides Ebay. You can try to find some mail fowarding services. I don't know if they accept foreign credit cards though. I know Gamestop US doesn't accept non-american credit cards. You'll have to ask your acquaintance to pay for you and you'll have to pay him/her back.

From what I understand neither of the next gen consoles are region locked, so if you ordered here in Australia like on this link https://ebgames.com....n-PlayStation-4 it should work on your US PS4, though I don't know I they'll deliver internationally

The US Gamestop does ship some stuff internationally, but they do not ship internationally for the Inquisitor's Editions. It's written on the item page that the product can only be shipped within the US. Not that it matters, Gamestop US being out of stock for the Inquisitor's Edition.

You might get lucky to find a copy on an auction site for 300 to 500 dollars if your willing to pay that much for it.
I had a Inquisition copy pre ordered but Gamestop screwed me over saying they had over extended on sales with limited quantity's so they down graded me to deluxe. <Irritating to say the least> The gamestop that's about 15 minutes away from my house had a total of 6 Inquisitor editions to sell that's what the Manager informed me, I was like your joking no for some reason Bioware really limited the quantity's this round.

It wouldn't really be a limited edition, if they offered unlimited quantities, now would it?

Sadly, I too was burned. It took me months to gather up that money since you have to pay off the preorder on the spot with this one. Only when I had the cash I was told they sold out a month before. Was so angry because I waited and waited for a collector's edition of DA2 to be annouced and it never was. Thought I was going to get my wish with DAI, but no.

I wish if they did make some more CE's that they would remove the exclusive from Gamestop and allow places like Amazon and a couple other places we used to get CE's from in the past become available to buy. Gamestop is just to unreliable these days, IMO.

I'm just glad it doesn't have any digital items... I'd be pissed if it did.

i've become less and less gamestop heavy (especially since i got my ps4 since I've gone almost all digital with it aside from a couple games, this game however, I am purchasing digitally) too but I still feel obligated to buy games among other things from there since I have since I was a kid. But still, I find it extremely ridiculous that the edition was so super limited. I was so prepared to buy it when i heard news but didn't have the money for it. After I was able to put some money aside for it, bam, sold out and out of order for good. *sigh* I just wanted the damn tarot cards! Why won't Bioware just take my money?
But seriously, it does suck that there's no chance of getting the quizzy's edition now. I'm stuck with the digital deluxe for my ps4 and hopefully I can get the tarot cards elsewhere.

I believe in people who are entrepreneurial and want to get ahead but sometimes it's so aggravating that greed rules their motivation.
Found a PC listing for the DA:I CE on Ebay selling for $650 + $100 bucks for shipping and several others with phenomenal prices the game isn't even out yet, guess this is why Bioware went limited copy's so people could buy them up and sell them for even higher prices instead of actually buying them to play and have in their collection.
If they released more collectors editions to the stores those high prices on the auction sites would become moot, but when has a company ever used logic to offset the greedy people out there.
Sigh!!

I dont know if anyone else does this, but in NZ the post office have a service where you can set up a local adress in another country and then have it delivered to them and then NZ post will ship it to you.

I honestly do not like digital compared to the physical copy. Call me old fashioned but being able to hold it in your hand is soo much better and admiring it. Digital is super convienient and you dont have to worry about wearing it out.
I want those tarot cards!!!
EBay is a place to buy and sell, it'd be nice every once in a while if they decided to sell stuff at a certain percentage more...not hundreds of dollars more.
I've never heard about NZ's post office. Seems like a hassle.
