Game were selling the beta packs seperately for a short-time.

I think they were prices at £3

I suppect that they have sold out of them by now as people are paying upto £60 on ebay for the keys. Does seem a bit over the top when the records all get wiped when the game goes live.

not sure if it's just for the us, but blizzard had to tell retailers to stop selling the game because the popular servers were saturated

because the EU is in beta and the beta servers are saturated

You're missing the point. So they would tell retailers to stop selling the game in Europe? Oh, wait :P

That's true. Even now, the servers are completely overloaded - I have to wait to get onto my server at peak times :( I can only hope they've sorted out the server issues when the game goes live over here.
