    Somehow I doubt it was to say sorry - more likely 'cause their pre-orders were so messed up they don't who is and isn't eligible for a code :)

    That was Amazon's (and HMV's) original price for the special edition.

    Ditto. I ordered it the minute it went up on the site, when it was called the SE, not the GE. Pretty damned good deal if you ask me, considering they cranked the price up after I ordered!

    Pre-order bonuses don't stack so you couldn't get two that way.
