You can buy it direct from Blizzard directly online, get the cd key online and download the cd from their server as well.

just buy locally la.. cheaper what.. if u buy from US.. the shipping lagi.. waste of money imo..

if u still want to buy from US.. for 1 item only.. i think kastam wont kacau.. but if its multiple box.. they might do so..

How much does a 6 month time card cost? With credit card, it's US$12.99 per month or $77.94 (~RM257)

It is only payable through credit card, no?

I thought time card only sells in the form of 2 months?

ive imported a buncha collector editions, WoW, war3 and many other various blizz titles directly from the US of A. no problem ever though customs will sometimes tax you especially if ur importing like 3 boxes of CE (big package and custom will def nail you for it lol)

credit card is always better if you buy 3 months/6months thanks to the currency exchange. even if its just 1-2 US dollar saving per month, multiply it by 3/6 then multiply it by aprox. 3.5, it'll add up.

Some people get "special offers" for wow stuff in US so its dirt cheap. like 60 rm for 90 day card and stuff.

dont think kastam will stop you.

frm my personal experience and a very bad one,

no taxation unless item is more than rm500 in a total receipt/courier
rm500 k? not usd 500.. if convert d is rm500 more then will kena.. subject to item..
if kena also got "rayuan" legit way k? not under-table or teh drinking lol
