    The cahs shop currency will be called ZEN on these servers.

    No payment methods were divulged yet, but they said many and the most current ones should be available.

    Read this thread : http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=6281 It's a compendium of most of the anwers the admins gave to our questions so far.

    And welcome aboard.

    Anybody who has ever been suckered into texting the singer they wanted to win to American Idol, or any other such "crowd participation" scam which has the fine print at the bottom of the screen.

    I like how in Big Brother (a reality tv show), when it's time to cast a vote, the disclaimer says it will cost $0.99 per vote, and that it's possible to vote ten times from the same number. Voting is like 3 times a week, so in one month (four weeks), a person could spend around $120 just on voting! And psychologically, people think it's only 99 cents, not even a dollar, until they see their phone bill the next month.

    The ads have said there will be all sorts of payment methods. I think Paypal is okay, as is Google checkout, and the cards from Target, Walmart, etc. My favorite would be just using Visa/MasterCard directly to Perfect World Entertainment, but that may be a liability, and why a lot of other online companies go through third party payment systems.

    If that's the pricing I'm never buying anything from the cash shop here. Especially if they keep the gold prices that the MY servers have. I know karmelia has it in her sticky FAQ that the CS items will be adjusted to be optimal in the US, but there's no saying what that means. If it turns out like Flyff where the best flying mounts are $80, I'm not going to bother.

    The best flying devices released on the MY_EN servers so far were sold at 99 cubi, meaning around us$31.

    They can't hope to attract players here if they sell items higher than their competitors.

    Also, remember that to buy Cubi, you had to use the services of a middleman (Offgamer or such others), thus raising the prices of the cubi (both had to make a profit), Since we we'll be buying directly from the game's owner, I have good confidence that all in all it will cost us less here.

    But like they say : wait and see... (and hope I'm not wrong :p)

    10 bucks for 1 gold? I do hope you've pulled that out of your nether regions cause if it goes through... nah....

    You'd have very very few people buying stuff, and the whole ideea of this micro-transaction-thing is to lull us all into a false sense of security so as to caugh up small ammounts of cash, but do it a lot.

    So how about 1$ = 10g? ;)

    By itself, the price of one ZEN in real money means nothing. You also need to know the price of the items in the cash shop.

    For exemple, let's pretend that one ZEN is sold $10.

    But then in the cash shop, if you could buy 50 dolls for 1 ZEN, it would be cheaper than what you pay currently in the Malaysian engris servers....

    Yes, first party sales of ZEN only please. I tried to buy cubigold from offgamers once, and they denied my debit card 33 times for a $1 fee each time. it was insane. I hope i can use my ChaCha card to buy ZEN.
