I love guars.

I also would maybe be willing to pay for an in-game guar.

But I don't like this plush guar and wouldn't want it.
They should be selling the in-game guar seperately.

Cute. Can we get guar pets in game without buying it?

This!

I got so tired of SWTOR selling mini-pets and vanity items I wanted in the game only via purchases out of the game. Agreed for them it was made yet worse by the items being time cards via US Amazon only.

I have no problem with vanity items in a cash ship like pets, mounts, costumes (no stats disguise ones) etc. but please make these purchasable via your cash shop stand alone and not exclusive to physical items we don't want.

Edit.

ApantosMithe GamingHeads The in-game #ESO Guar pet code is on located on the tag that comes with the plush itself.

So that's a no you have to buy this thing to have every collectable in the game.
Also in regards to the EU shipping, please don't go down the route so many US based MMO companies do where you give a giant FU to anyone outside the states. $16 shipping is just wow... thanks for caring.

I have seen so many different products sold over the years with "in-game" codes attached. I don't understand all the fuss. There MMO magazines that have given away exclusive appearance gear for years. It's the same idea. It's not an in-game cash store or anything, just a nice little freebie thrown in if you buy the plushie.

The problem is there are a lot of people (like myself) who want to collect all the little in game item extras that exist for a game. However when items in game are attached only to an out of game product you don't want, is only within a single region or shipping outside of that region is expensive it really sucks.

I personally have no problems at all with an in game cash shop for vanity items, however I want all in game items to be something I can get from the game itself either via gameplay rewards or the games cash shop, not an out of game exclusive code.

Question, is the In-Game guar an actual size of a guar or is it like my profile picture, a bantam guar.
I really would not mind either one

I do wish companies offering stuff like this would think outside America. I would have happily considered this if I wasn't going to be punished monetarily for living anywhere but America. It's not really fair to ask non-Americans to pay nearly twice as much for the same item.

I'll pass for now and stick with my monkey and crabs!

So there's no way this will come in the cash shop? I really don't feel like buying a plush Guar, however cute it is, i do want a Guar vanity pet though.

So getting the ingame one without buying this would be wonderful.

I'm in Alaska and I had to pay $12 for shipping, but I guess no one is forcing me to buy it, probably would have to wait a month for the redeem code.

eew, I don't find it cute, Iam the only one who thinks it's ugly. I've ordered plenty of things online from Australia and generally get a $10+ charge for postage on overseas orders. It's because of distance it has to travel to get to you.

A great antidote for spouse agro!

$16 for shipping and then don't forget that Customs will slap VAT on the *total* price and demand you cough up the extra before you can have it. I ordered a shirt from Jinx once. Never again - find a UK importer.

Had this same thing also once. Ordered from .co.uk site but the stuff came from US. So there was nice bill waiting for me in customs to pick stuff up (customs fee+vat).

For a global game like this I'm also hoping that they do open up some distribution centers outside US so us EU people would not get so screwed.

Limit in Finland to buy outside EU is about 22eur (30 USD) anything over that and you will get at least VAT 24% added based on full price.

I know! Pack the servers with plushie guars when you move them to Frankfurt and distribute them from there!

Wow, I had no idea how badly people in Europe and elsewhere are getting screwed because of VAT taxes. I hope for your sakes I hope they do open up some sort of shipping/ distribution center in Europe for you guys.

No one is curious if this "guar" code is just a scuttler?

Oh, I definitely am. The plushie is cute, but I'm not buying until there's some sort of confirmation that the in-game pet is also a guar. I haven't seen that explicitly anywhere yet.
