50$ for a +10 Ocean orb

Fuzzy sees no need for this thread to continue.


-closed-

There is no reason at all we shouldn't have a thread about this.

The panda saw no need for the obvious troll thread on this same issue to continue, hence he closed that one. As to why the one started yesterday was closed, Fuzzy does not know. It does indeed hurt that the Ocean Orbs are 50 gold, the panda was hoping to buy a few for himself.

The thing is, they have probably sold 20 Ocean Orbs for every single negtive post about this. No matter what the price, there will always be people buying em.

While yes, for those of us who have been merchanting and grinding and waiting for the "normal" sale it is easy to be frustrated when seeing this. However, to Fuzzy it just means that when the sale we are used to does indeed roll around, and dollars to doughnuts it will, there will just be an even bigger stack of coin to buy em with. (The panda is aware that statement will be little consolation to anyone.)

for fuzzy to talk in third person.
Fuzzy has big stacks of coins.
Fuzzy does not complain.
Fuzzy love this game.
Fuzzy love to be forum mod.
Fuzzy wuzz is not a wuzz when it comes to closing threads.

Fuzzy loves to change topic of forum thread and then close them.

This thread is about 10 star ocean orb and why the original thread was gone.

Ocean orb for 50 gold is very expensive. Only the richest player can enjoy the sale.

Hmmm.

Frankie makes a post about an issue with people not getting their blinking poultices that they should have gotten when they purchased ocean orbs.

Hey all,


We're having an issue with the Dragon Orb Ocean/Blinking Poultice promotion (http://pwi.perfectworld.com/news/?p=517211) -- Blinking Poultices were slated to be sent out starting yesterday at 2pm PDT, but they did not go out as planned. We'll have this fixed asap, and those who bought Oceans since yesterday will have their missing Poultices sent to them by next week.


We apologize for the inconvenience.

Ooooh boy. We all know what those are used for. b:shocked

Copied from other thread:

Honestly this company seems to believe "increasing prices" on something will balance the game, yet they fail to remember the people who were unfortunate to miss the last sale which puts them at a serious disadvantage.

Do you people not read the forums frankie? We have been begging for a 10* orb sale, and we even SPECIFIED that we WANTED the 5 for 100 gold package. Honestly, pwi thinks we complain too much but gee i wonder why cause you never EVER listen to the player base. We have been begging for 2 months and still what do you give us? Overpriced stuff. How is a non cser suppose to pay 66mil for one ocean orb? I been farming my buttcheeks off so that i could get enough gold to +10 the rest of my gear with a PROPER sale.

PWI always wants to make money, so how is it that they cannot see that the 100gold package will result in people buying MORE. Only fools will buy an ocean orb for 50gold. Get with the program!

To the players who refused to exploit the glitch, we're sorry that we cannot deliver the justice that you were waiting for, but we can promise that we will work to improve all facets of community, engineering, and customer service to ensure that something like this doesn't happen again.

Is the 50 gold per ocean orb the improvement you promised? If so you failing this course.

Also Fuzzy if there are people buying it, aka merchants probably they really fail at economics. Also, if pwi makes it cheaper as i said, more people will buy it, its basic merchant knowledge.

10 people buy these orbs at 50 gold:
10*50= $500 oh profit?
100 people buy 100gold package: would probably be more
100*100= $10000

Yes, the 50 gold is definitely more profitable derp.b:bye

you people ever get off PWI Forums?Same old a-holes complaining.Am going to make another We want 2x drops thread just so you all freak out and attack me.Q_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Q moar moar moar moar q________________Q b:bye

1-Game is too old and getting older as we speak.
2-Old games dont increase prices on Mall items they lower them as they are on their last legs.
3-Theres so much competition out there.

Going against this logic in mmos is like shooting an old sick person.

I heard about those two guilds, i hear they will be playing on the US server on the Henge of Denravi world in like, 8 hours time! b:chuckle

Don't know what world this Norn Guardian will be joining just yet, but as soon as I get off work tonight I'll be all up in it.

Strategy of company is pretty obvious, but WRONG.
They loosing players=less gold sold. So to maintain the same profit from past, they increase prices. This is very wrong strategy which will lead to the end, if they don't change it soon.

It`s a shame they are seemingly killing their game. The higher things are priced, the lesser amount of ppl are willing to buy the items hence the higher price you need to achieve the same profit. Now had the gone cheaper, there would of been more ppl willing to buy the said items, hence they`ll be making same profit with lower prices. The ones that are going to buy orbs with this sht sale mostly have their refines already - Additionally PWE is angering the playerbase when major MMO is coming out. Unless PWE is intentionally killing the game, they really should fire whoever is running their marketing.
