There is if you want that CE! (It will last 1 day at best, 30min at worst) Its like the Batmobile edition of that new Batman game, it sold out (over 10,000 copies) in 30 minutes.

depends on what edition you want entirely.
i'll be opting for the dragon statue and the collectors stuff with it lol so pre-order to me is better the earliest possible.
I'll check with GAME / Grainger Games tomorrow as well before live letter.
Did they say specifically that the CE was a LIMITED collector's edition, though? Pretty sure they must have planned for a LOT of people wanting that CE.
"I'm OK. This rock broke my fall."
Collector's Edition kind of imply that it will be limited in quantity. If everyone can get the collector's edition then it wouldn't be a collector's item. :P
Not always true, sometime it just get attached to something so they can slap a higher price tag on it, also depends what included have found come CEs that can still find months after release.
Just got an email from SE saying the quantity for the CE will be limited...so not everyone gonna get one.
Also side note:
Collector's Editions tend to be extremely limited to the number of total sales of a game and not available to just "pick up" after game launch
Limited Editions tend to cost more than standard but are available in quantity after game launch
Standard Editions are always available until the publication has expired.
I have yet to find anything stating if the Collector's Edition will be available in the EU, let alone in the UK. From the way the email was read, it would be sold in limited supplies.
I am in the UK and have put money aside ever since they announced the CE so will be extremely disappointed if they forget the fanbase in the EU. Have to wait until 16th March I guess. I so want that dragon figurine.
People collect things that aren't rare all the time.. I think you're kidding yourself if you think that they will only have a small quantity. I mean I could be wrong but they were selling physical collectors edition for both 1.0 and 2.0 for a while still after the game was launched and they still have the physical PS4 2.0 CE available now. They know a lot of people are going to want the CE and I doubt they're stupid enough to limit sales to such a small quantity that nobody has a chance to buy it after day 1 pre-orders.
Obviously they are going to send out emails and imply that the CE will be "limited" because that will increase overall sales by making people think they're special. The fact that it's limited doesn't mean there is only a small quantity of them however, sounds like business as usual to me.

Collector's editions tend to not exceed 10,000-15,000 units. Just because you collect something doesn't mean its a collectible item. What makes it a collectible item is the fact that there is a proportionally limited amount to the number of normal items (ie: holographic cards for example are considered collectibles, antiques are considered collectibles, sand is not a collectible item, water is not a collectible item, cat pictures are not a collectible item). Now that being said it no one bites on the collector's edition of games there are chances they will be available for a bit but not because they are making a bunch.
