I have been waiting since we got our Eternal Love Packs for a pigment sale so that I can purchase pigments and colour it the colour I want.

Please can we have a sale?

The catshops have much choice in colours and what they are charging for white/black and red is ridiculous!

Please pwi.....see what you can do for us fashionistas b:kiss

    You realize that merchant prices are all gold value related?

    Event dyes cost quite a lot especially when you want a certain color and EL female needs 24 dyes just for the dress. That is like 50 gold just for 2 tries. Also some of us need those event golds for other stuff like charms...

    But I'm with OP, dye sale please! or put it back into bidding hall! D:

    And don't forget how much set dyes can be a pain. Sure it'll all be one color... but get a poor color and you feel like you've burned double the dyes for no reason.

    Late Night Coat costs 9 event gold and gives 20 pigments. I think that's a better deal in my opinion :o That's 45 event gold for 100 random pigments vs. 60 event gold for 105 random pigments.

    It still consumes a lot of event gold though if you don't get lucky with colours and people with a limited amount of event gold shouldn't waste the gold on pigments but save it for charms and/or refine aids.

    Then again, spending real gold on pigments (whether that is CS'd or bought via AH) is not that good either... I can understand when you really want certain fashion with certain colours though, hard to resist!

    I don't have a good comeback for you guys ^

    But I just want to say, I rather not use the event gold on RANDOM dyes. Like Desdi said, if you get unlucky that still cost a lot of event gold, not to mention the 100k COINS you have to spend to get those dyes from fashionista. Whether it's 45 event gold for 100 random pigments or 60 event gold for 105 random pigments, somewhere along those lines, you have to pay a few 100k already. Plus I'm a daily charm user, the event gold I got from the codes are almost completely gone, so I rather cherish them for charms than dyes.

    Now you might say that is better than spending real gold.

    How I see it is that, if I'm paying real gold, I'm getting what I want in one shot.
    Also, it's not even necessarily CS, because if there is a dye sale, cat shops most likely will lower their prices because ,come on, who will buy catshop stuff if it's cheaper in boutique. It eventually become cheaper to buy those pure dyes with coins than it is to waste coins on random dyes god knows how many times.

    I find it hard to believe we can buy mats and herbs etc in the Boutique
    but not colors that we need and want, would it be a money maker???

    personally I agree with the others...why spend gold or event gold on something
    when the odds say you wont get until many many tries with Random colors

    I dont know...how about...25 silver per color???

    Sure, if you want a particular color, especially white, normal dyes is the only way to go. I personally never ever seen pure white coming out of random dyes (black and different shades of red are quite possible)...
    It's only if you just like playing with dyes wearing your favorite dress in a new color every few weeks (I used to, when the DQ point system was live) or if you want rare colors - say, soft coral shades or midnight blue I can only get with random dyes - then this trick could be a temporary solution. Hope we get some stable source of random dyes again though.
