It doesn't make any sense having only 7-day boosters. I'm pretty sure it has been stated that it's mislabeled from the collector's edition.
Also, when you get the digital versions, I believe you get your activation key immediately. When I bought my digital deluxe from amazon I was able to redeem my key for the game and preorder bonuses.
I kinda figured that. since they said the extra boost time was to offset the cost of the stuff we don't get where it is a digital download. just got alittle scared when it don't match up.

If Trion pulled that crap, they would go down the drain very fast. Having 7-day boosters and a couple random items doesn't offset $40
Amazon lists that you would get this:
UPGRADE TO RECEIVE DELUXE EDITION ITEMS
Ark Hunter Infiltrator Outfit
Hydra Heavy Weapon
VBI Sentinel Shield
7 Day Scrip Boost
7 Day XP Boost Lock Box
+5 Inventory
In-Game Title: Badlands Drifter
But, that doesn't equate to $40.. the 30-day boosts do. I seriously doubt Trion can advertise the digital deluxe on their site as having 30-day boosts and listing retailers that don't get those. It's misleading and false marketing, they would get in trouble for that. If someone can verify, when I activated my cd key I remember it just saying Digital Deluxe, so I don't think the keys differ from place to place. The only difference is the preorder bonus key which was labeled as being from Amazon.
Before I pre-ordered my copy I had noticed this. What I noticed is the digital copies of the game will come with 30 day xp boosts, but the hard disc copies only get 7 day boosts. I i figured it had something to do with the extra real life swag you get with the hard copies.
Sadly, many console players would rather have the additional 23 days of bonuses, instead of the real life items. However, it simply is not an option for us and seems to be a gross oversight on the part of Trion. Needless to say, I dislike promotional 'junk' so much that I will likely purchase the standard edition just to avoid it.
This forum's got 99 problems and at least 99 of them are gamestop... lol

Also, I used to recruit for the Anarcho-Syndicalist Revolutionary Union <ASRU Ark Hunters> (on 360 NA), but no one was interested, and I don't know if I'll ever bother playing again.
I'm leaning towards GameStop having another one of their famous brain fart moments again.
I'll go in to Gamestop later and talk to my manager about this. But seriously, if Trion says they're giving you something, then chances are that you'll get it since retailers have no power over what they put in the box. (And this is why I get physical copies, no digital magic cloud storage device for my games).
