So you are able to now buy GsT's in Cash Shop for 60 Gold.
Was this a mistake or is it 100% legit? Because its still far cheaper to just buy the Myst. Chips...

I know PWI is nothing more than a cash cow, but come on. Thats just disrespectful to your players.
12,300 Gold JUST for the GsT's... Thats currently 43,050,000,000 coins in TT server... That is near impossible for your general player to get.

I really believe this needs some solid re-thinking. Also im sure everyone would like a GsT sale. Has not been one in the last 3 or 4 MoG sales >.<

What are everyone elses thoughts on the new price gouging?


-UPDATE-

The 60 Gold price tag for 1 GsT is not a mistake. The marketing department chose this as the "correct" price.

Direct quote from a response to my ticket "yes the pricing set by the developers for the GST's are correct. Unfortunately Customer Support and the GM's are not involved in the decision making process."

So in short. PWI are saying **** you to its players.

    The price makes no logical sense as you can buy the chips and make it for FAR less. Players also sell them for such and so the 60 gold price is absolutely ridiculous. PWE must have either been trolling or can't do basic math.

    I'm thinking it has to be a mistake, that 60 gold might be for 10 of them or something. If not, PWI might want to reconsider their pricing lol

    I always want to believe it's a mistake. I only wonder why such mistakes are never the other way around...

    I got a response from PWE to share with yall.
    GST--- wrong price for sure. If we release this item for boutique later, I will reimburse players who bought it during this time period.

    So, if you bought one, open a ticket.

    If someone bought one for 60 gold when one has the ability to make one for almost 5 gold now something is seriously wrong
