WR10 Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Am about to get the standard edition of BF3 from cjs...has anyone ever shopped from that site? Is it reliable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven Angel Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Reliable - 50-50. Recommended - no. You can get it cheaper on Steamtrades as the game was already available in Humble Bundle for $5 Check: http://www.steamtrades.com/forum/search/Battlefield%203 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WR10 Posted November 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I am not looking to get a digital download (23 GB is phew )...I need the physical copy and none of the stores seems to have stock of the game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven Angel Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Check local eBay? Here: http://www.ebay.in/itm/BATTLEFIELD-3-PC-/221319166955#ht_500wt_1414 FYI: CJS is digital store. Plus, there are lot of updates. Retail base disc doesn't contain any. So, you'll need to download ~8-16GB of updates even if you opt for retail box.

WR10 Posted November 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I have already seen that and it showed no stock available when i checked again...seems it was newly listed...so are you saying that i wont get the retail box if i buy it at cjs?

Heaven Angel Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Yes, you don't get retail box if you order from CJS. It's UK based digital store. 1) You sure it's not available on eBay? Item condition: New Time left: 4d 09h 2) Get ahem copy from local bazaar for $1-2. Then buy original key from Steamtrades or cheaper place. Use ahem dvd to install the game. 3) Post here and see if anybody can help you with retail box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WR10 Posted November 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Yeah i can see the item listed in Ebay..Thanks a ton...Also see this : http://www.cjs-cdkeys.com/products/Battlefield-3-CD-Key-for-Origin-%252d-Scan.html It says you can also opt to get the boxed copy via mail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spindoctor Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 cjs cdkeys, in case the name didn't give it away, is a grey market site that sells cd keys. If you do in fact end up ordering the box copy, you will effectively be importing the game and it will cost a lot more than you expect to pay. Just download the game and it'll be over before you know it (and definitely before an overpriced imported box copy shows up at your doorstep). Besides, their price on BF3 is terrible, especially after the humble bundle. Heck I'd sell you a key for a quarter of what they're asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spindoctor Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Subtle. Not. Already donated my humble bundle key to a friend but they're worth nothing in the trading market. Paying $20 for it now is absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WR10 Posted November 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 How big will the updates be for Bf3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Boss Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 How big will the updates be for Bf3? No idea, but if Bandwidth is the problem, dont bother. My current game size is 34.3 GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spindoctor Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 20gb for the base game, 15gb odd if you buy the 5 DLCs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
