Yeah that extra cost kinda sucks. I have an iPhone 4 so I was just able to download the authenticator. They are totally worth it! Plus you get an adorable corehound pet. :3

It's very much worth it. It will block all but a super, super, super determined hacker (And frankly with the legions of unprotected accounts and computers... why bother?). Plus, free minipet.

Why not have had a petopian order it for you and ship it? Aria did it for me for an authenticator for a birthday present, if belated, last year. There's also the free download ones too.

Also there is a thing called supply and demand, there might just not be enough demand, where you live, for a store to be built. Demand = money, no demand, no money.

I think it's the 20 dollar shipping that does it. I'm kinda surprised - I know LOTS of Aussie zone players/oceanic players, personally.

No Ryai theres heaps of people who are in the oceanic servers . I mean that covers new zealand.aussie most of asia and the islands thats heaps of servers. Heaps of demand, I'm not the only one who wants a oceanic blizz store I mean they have a europe one so why not one for us? I'd be fine if it was in Aussie cash that would not be as costly.If I got someone esle to ship it to me it proberly would of costed more for shipping.

But then again this is a US game company we are talking about and most of the time they don't give a flying rats ass about people from down here.

The download is only for Iphones I can't afford one of those.

That because they use express mail and it's probably insured, tracked etc etc.

It does run on the iPod Touch as well, which would be a bit cheaper at least.

if you have an Android smartphone, there's an Authenticator app in the Android Marketplace.
