As some others on the SWTOR forums have realized, Amazon is now offering the Cartel Coins with “Umbral Blurrg” pet. However, there are some stipulations. For example, Amazon does not ship them outside of the US. But some players have found a workaround.
For example, if you are in Canada, you can use this service (http://www.cbiusa.com/) to have your items shipped to their address or to purchase digital items like this one.
Players in Europe are using a workaround with a gift card and US address to purchase it.
Here it is on Amazon:
And here is the official product description:
