Haha, not in the USA though.
It is only an offer for: Austria,Baltic States, Belgium, Croatia, Czech & Slovak Republic, Denmark, Finland, FYROM, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Yugoslavia, Russia.
Bbut I really want that shoulder bag, it'd be awesome to use as schoolbag
Edit: @1310haZzZaRd: Read the small letters, it is a direct copy from my inbox.
I noticed that to... always look out for the small print.
BOO I say!
Although, I understand they want to generate more interest in the smaller markets (even though a few of those nations aren't small MtG markets...at least, I didn't think Germany was a small MtG market...).
At any rate, BOO I say!

(about the English language) It's kinda like a raft that was cobbled together from parts of three different boats and since then has been kept barely afloat with crude repairs every time a leak appeared.
In Seattle, we've been doing that theme deck battle for several pre-releases. Not only do we get another pack, we get another pre-release card, which is choice when it's Lotus Bloom and Korlash. It's fun, and I recommend it for in between matches if you're not doing too much that day.
I have not seen the booster box offer before (wondering if it's still only in Europe, sad), and the shoulder bag offer (which is what I carry my Magic goods in) really intrigues me. If anyone gets one of those and they might want to sell it, I would be interested in buying it.
So you get only one free booster, or do you get 1 free booster to add to your deck,a nd after playing against 4 different players, you get another additional free booster?
What Seattle has done is you get a pre-con to play against other people with other pre-cons, see the new cards, test them out. After you play one, sign their paper, and they sign yours. Once you get your 4 (or in our area 5) signatures, return it to where you got it, and you get a free promo card and a booster. Plus, you keep the pre-con. Hope that helps.
well, considering the fact that a booster pack in Israel costs us almost 6$ (no, I'm not kidding... the exact price is 5.8$), then buying a booster box means spending tons of cash...(209$ for those who can't do the math) so, 6 boosters aren't really a "gift" here... are they?

Seems like it's a gift worth almost $40. Really, complaining about free stuff is just not polite, whether you plan to take advantage of the offer or not.

whe they charge us for almost double the price of the US price, something tells me that we can lightly complain now seriously, yes... it should be said that it may be a nice jesture, but I rather see some decent prices for boosters instead of some extra boosters when buying a box (for 209$!!!)
I have a feeling they will be doing something of this sort in the large markets, but they really wanted to push it elsewhere. The last two prereleases (not Xth) here had the theme deck challenge even though I never saw any promotions for it. I only actually played at the PC release, did a 2HG game where we had matching decks on both sides (Mono-Blue and the B/R one) and it was pretty fun, even though I didn't get to play many games. If they have it this next time I am definitely taking advantage of it.
