Communicated time period was WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3 10:00 AM Pacific, as noted just above you.
It's quite possible that the sale was always meant to end on Monday, as most of the weekend sales do. But someone had to type not only the day of the week, but the date -- and they both said the sale was supposed to end in two days.
I've notified the team. The packs are indeed supposed to be on sale until June 3. I didn't make a typo

Please, add the Feywild Starter Pack which according to ARC is supposed to be on sale too but it's not in the Zen Market! ;(
WHAT? holy sh...Yesterday i finally got Zen through AD/Zen...and then saw the sale is over,so i sold it
They should add a couple days to give people a chance to get their Zen orders filled.

If you want to take advantage of sales, keep a reserve of Zen. Don't count on the exchange coming through for you when the corporate overlords decide to slap a discount on something everyone wants, because everybody else who didn't plan for eventualities is placing their orders the same as you.

You seem to misinterpret Cryptic's intention behind those sales: It's not to please the players, or to remove AD from the game economy, but to fill their RL bank account...
...which is an absolutely valid point they have there. Just, the ways to "entice" players to comply to that wish, and the product one gets for the money, have been well below my expectations lately.
Here is a list of things I'd pay for, none of which would be the least bit unbalancing, mostly all quality of life improvements...some are already in the game they just need to be enabled.
- Shared Storage for Resources
- Ability to share resources between characters at will, without having to mail them around (maybe new profession, Supervisor?)
- Guild Resources tab
- Fashion Storage tab
- Individual dye colors beyond what is available.
- Weapon dyes
- Enchant visual Remover
- Larger Celestial Coin storage
- Mail or Bank Access bot (craftable maybe?)
- Increased stack size (sold in 10%, 20%, etc).
- Temporary avatar changes (visual only) - cats, wolves, other races, etc
- Mount customizations
Thats a few minutes though, and that would make them a fortune.

Also, the sale is back up allright.
