I too just have been scammed from them. My story: I first bought a month gametime from them and all went perfect.I think there is a post in this thread where I say that all went smooth. Then... I bought a year pass + Diablo 3. Back then, I specifically asked if there could have been problems from Blizzard and he/she said no, that I just needed to give him the codes and every month he would have used them without me asking to him. And everything worked fine the first few months... then I started to receive billing on my credit card from blizzard. I contacted precious and he said that it was due on how blizzard changed how "refer a friend" worked and he would have needed more RAF codes for the next months. I then asked for a refund of those months (which I was not supposed to pay) and he refused to do it. So... now I paid him for a year that I WON'T HAVE fully, and I'm also paying Blizzard every month. For a game that I'm NOT playing and have no intention to play (I bought the annual just for Diablo 3). So... be careful, because he may scam you too. DON'T TRUST HIM.

I'm with you. After reading the skype logs precious was clearly offering to fullfill the 12 month purchase , just resume it from the 5 already used and add 7 more. Anyways, I've had good relations with precious on past GTC.
Be one of the lucky US accounts that don't get investigated for account merger. Basically blizzard will sometimes "notice" that you merged a non-battle.net account under name Johnny Douche-bag to a battle.net account with the name Peter Griffin and then lock the account that you merged until you can prove you own said account, which in most cases , you can't.
hmmm..i;m interested in this SoR thing with Pr3cious... but i;m confised how it works... 1. I paypal this precious person XX euros. 2. He gives me the logins for a wow account? or what? How does the account end up in my hands?
i bought of pr3cious many times and not for small amounts no way pr3cious would scam anyone imo badbvupm pay him for what u want he gives u login details you merge it with your own account all added all yours he has all instructions on what to do and not what do on his sale page i have 2 *****ing accounts off him worth every penny.
I would just buy it on ebay. There are sellers that are trustworth 99,x - 100% positive feedback. You pay and few minutes later you get the account information. But be careful as blizz obviously has an eye on sor accounts. The sellers always give the advice to wait 2 days with botting, after merging the accounts.
Precious is legit, his respond time kinda sucks, sometimes takes an hour. but 100% legit. and I wouldn't buy SOR accounts, its a 99% ban rate, even before your 7 days are up most of the time. and that does not matter who you purchase them from. If all names don't match up under a Battlenet account = Accounts Locked/ Investigation. Now, you can get what a sor account gives you minus the free lvl 80 but plus 23 days game time. Just buy a battlechest, and lvl a toon to 80. takes a day w/ raf, takes 3 without raf w/ quest bot and in terms of the first post on here Sounds like he did not scam you. He gave you what you purchased. He cannot control that Blizz fixed raf time, so however they cheated the system does not 100% work anymore. Now it only works like 10% of the time. 12 raf times = 12 months = he gave you what you purchased. If you got a car and 4 months later it fell apart, but it was sold as is, would you really say they scammed you?
I'd like to input my experiences with buying SoR accounts off Pr3cious or anyone at all. I purchased two account recently... EU servers. Paid my money. Merged the accounts into my main bnet account. Over the next couple of days i dealt with the SoR and managed to get some desireable lvl 80 chars in that account. Including successfuly using of the SoR to boost a char. All seemed well. I hadn't paid for any gametime. This morning however.... BOOM! "Account Banned" notice. "Exploitative Activity: Abuse of the Economy". Its a kicker because obviously... i wanted those chars and had planned to move them to my main bnet account. My word of warning/advice to other looking to work around the SoR acocunt system is ... DON'T 1. The accounts you buy will all be on other realms/factions so you'd have to pay EXTRA money to have those chars moved to your main account. 2. You have no idea what this account has been up to... so even suggesting that you do open it successfully, chances are you will only get sniffed out eventually anyway. 3. Save the money guys! Its quite a large number of Euros to pay for something which is likley to get banned anyways. Its not that we're being "mis-sold" by the SoR seller. Its just that there are too many unknown factors for the venture to be safe.
More people went and got sor accounts after reading this? Really? WoW. You can just send me all your $$, if you want to waste it. to be more clear. DO NOT BUY SOR ACCOUNTS, YOUR WASTING YOUR MONEY/GOLD!!
Not a TOTAL waste of time. Nah...i don;t agree with that. The only reason it was a bit of a waste of money for me is because i didn;t have the brains to transfer the chars immediately. I left it too late, and the account got banned. Transferring characters immediately could have unforseen consequences, i.e. association of your main account to naughty accounts...but i would suggest that as long as you boost and transfer as quickly as possible then you should be ok. Ofc that is just my 2c worth, and ymmv.
