No cd key in my WOtLK slim case box

#0 - Jan. 24, 2010, 10:06 p.m.

I just bought a wotlk upgrade and it was a slim case
I checked the tape all around it to see if it was recently opened or anything and it wasn't so I bought it and when i opened it up there was no cd key on the cd case or anything
There wasn't any indication that it was removed or that it was even there so I need help to find out if it was placed somewhere else or should I bring this back to the Wal-Mart I bought it from.

I’m not quite sure what you mean by the “slim”case Saiyonara, but if you purchased the Wrath of the Lich King from an independent retailer, your best bet would be to return it to the store you purchased it from in exchange for a fresh copy. If you can inform me what you are speaking of in reference to the “slim case” you mentioned, I may be able to shed some more light on the situation.
