Special pre-order bonuses based on where you pre-order the game is something that's been used a lot in recent games and usually, they are the only way you will get those items. You used to get little goodies like strategy guides for pre-ordering a game but the marketing people figured out that giving people in-game bonuses that you can't get through normal gameplay is more effective at 1. getting people to buy the game and 2. advertising to people where they got the game. It's a dirty way to get people to place more pre-orders and you're just helping to promote the strategy by posting about it. I think it's a great idea for a thread but please don't post about pre-order bonuses. I mean, they're not really free, anyway.
