This was posted this morning by BFG-Guy on the Big Fish forums: It is my pleasure to say we will now be offering the option to purchase Collector's Edition games with two of your Game Club credits this week! It is privately in place now and we are going through final testing before making it generally available to all. This has been a long requested feature but proved to be more complicated to deliver on than one would think.
Later this week, if you have two Game Club credits are available in your account, you will be able to place a Collector's Edition game in your cart and complete your transaction with your credits.
It has been a while since I last posted, but I wanted to share this news with you. My participation in the forums is more limited now. The forums are your venue and I felt too much like "big brother" being as active as I was. My time is scarce these days as well, we are working hard on new projects and my free (non-work) time is devoted to my family. They grow up fast and I need to make the most of it!
I will try to share with you any exciting developments that may come about in the future and in the meantime, I will whenever possible, continue to read all your wonderful contributions on the forums.
Cheers! I know a lot of you have been hoping for this feature, and I wanted to share this exciting news with everyone! Of note, we are talking about your monthly Game Club credits here, not your punch card credits.

Thanks Marian,
That was very good news. Sure will make it much easier for me to buy a CE during the month when they come available instead of having to wait until my monthly check comes. Although the downside is that now I may end up buying more than I should. LOL
Happy Gamming All, OldMan44

We would still be paying $6.99 x 2 = $13.98 where's the bargain? For someone who buys a lot of games in a month and never saves their Game Credits it not an advantage. It is mainly for those who save their monthly Game Credits, who can then use them to buy the Collector Editions. To be able to use Punch Card Credits is not really fair, because some of those credits didn't cost anything, or maybe only $2.99. When you really look at it, they didn't cost anything at all, because it was given to you as a token of thanks for buying a game. So to use these as if they were money, does not make good business sense. It wasn't meant to be a bargain, it was to make it easier to purchase CE by using Game Credits already purchased.

Just seen you can get a Collection Edition game for 2 credits, sounds OK with me.
Keep going, the feeling great at the end.
