Epic Weapons / Razer promo (1 item) *Found by ExplodingRat + Lawyers Guns N Money
Ring [The Ring of Whispers]
--Ring is only for the 360 and PC versions of DA2.
Buy $15 of Dragon Age items from
http://www.epicweapons.com/ and get a code for an in-game ring. It improves cunning, attack speed, and raises the drop rate of gold from enemies. There are many things for sale on the site, but notice that the promotion says you must spend $15 on Dragon Age items. The collectors edition Grey Warden letter opener or the darkspawn letter opener are both just over the $15 price requirement.
The ring of whispers can also be obtained by buying any Dragon Age 2 item (except the messenger bag) from razer.

Ring [Evra's Might], Ring [Air of Confidence], Amulet [Ivo Family Crest], Amulet [Dura's Blue Flame], Belt [Evra's Trophy Belt]
*Not yet obtainable, I will update once the game leaves Beta
Play the Dragon Age Legends facebook game to unlock 5 more items. 2 rings, 2 amulets, and another belt; all sound usefull, heres what bioware has to say about them: The rings are Evra's Might, which is useful against demons, and Air of Confidence, the properties of which are "a subject of much speculation". The amulets are the Ivo Family Crest and Dura's Blue Flame. Neither are discussed in detail. The belt, Evra's Trophy Belt, is made from teeth, fur and fragments that mythical hero Evra collected on his adventures. Again, no statistic-related benefits are yet noted.

New copies of Game (Many items from an exclusive in-game store):
Store [Black Emporium]
All new copies of the game will have a code to unlock an in-game store called the Black Emporium. This code will be included with all new copies of the game for awhile, but later releases might not have it. If you buy the game used, you have almost no chance of getting a code for this content.
Here are some of the things the Black Emporium unlock code will give you access to:
--A magic item store that has some of the best equipment you’ll find in the game. It’s restocked with better items as you progress through the story.
--A loyal mabari hound that fights at your side in battle.
--The “Mirror of Transformation”. Gaze into it and you can change your very appearance. Hair, eyes, tattoos, and more can be changed with the click of a button.
--A crafting store which sells powerful unique recipes.
--Explore the Black Emporium and uncover its strange secrets and lore. Be sure to see its strange proprietor. It should prove most… memorable.

Staff [Apostate's Courage], Shield [Seeker's Bulwark], Bow [Adder of Antiva], Sword [Might of Sten]
Character and quest DLC [Sebastian Vael, The exiled prince]

If you did not have a signature edition pre-ordered, the only way you will be able to get the other signature edition in-game items is to buy an unused unlock code from someone selling theirs
