I didn't get charged shipping for either of my 2 (purchased at the same time). $6.50 each, $13.00 total charge, Rhode Island destination. Not sure what the difference will be between yes/no on shipping charge.

And Blizzard certainly isn't making a 'cash haul' profit on these. They -MIGHT- be breaking even, but likely are taking a loss up-front in order to saturate as much of their player base as possible with them to relieve customer service costs associated with hacked accounts.

And I have never been hacked, neither has my wife. I practice safe surfing, regular scans, etc... The simple fact remains however, no amount of safe surfing practices, software blockers, scanners, or sweepers will ever protect you against your bitter ex-girlfriend/wife that hates you for ignoring her to raid, and had previously gotten or guessed your password.

Having the ID fob on your key chain at work while she hacks up your room with your frost-mourne replica will at least keep your account safe... and hopefully you have homeowners insurance for the rest.

(Yes, I know someone that this happened to...except she deleted his toons, parental-locked the account for 24hr lockout, and canceled the subscription)
