TOS Value Bundle expiry time

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
May we please have an exact expiry time for the 1400 point TOS Super-Value bundle offer containing all the goodies?

Specifically, is 'TODAY' marketing-talk for 'BUY NOW'; or does that mean specifically the next 24 hours?

If the latter; when will the 24-hour period end?

Thanks!

    This is not a one day sale, but it is for a limited time. We will give everyone plenty of notice for when the bundle is no longer available.

    So does that mean that once it expires, nobody will be able to obtain the TOS Ship interior again?

    I was curious if that means the TOS pack is a limited time thing, or just the cheap price its got right now? I assume the latter.

    Cryptic Marketing is Cryptic. :(

    The wording is:
    This pack includes:
    - Federation Starship Interior: The Original Series
    - Federation Bridge: The Original Series
    - Access to the Federation Shuttlecraft Class F with pet
    - Black-and-white TOS-style Type 2 Phaser Variant that increases in effectiveness as you level!

    Purchase the Value Bundle TODAY and you'll also receive:
    - 3 Federation Costume Packs: TOS Dress Uniform, Medical Uniform and Command Tunic

    The limited-time offer bundles the costume packs as well as the other stuff. Afterwards, it's just the first block of things.

    Word from Dstahl is that the offer will be around for at least a few weeks.

    so the only part that's today only is the inclusion of the costumes?

    Today will mean tomorrow if your read the same sentence then. You just failed temporal mechanics.:p

    Temporal Mechanics? I thought this was cooking school! No wonder people looked at me strange when my soup kept phase variating....

    The costume packs are free for the limited time. When its over you still get everything besides them for 1400, they just got 240 extra a piece.

    I'd just like to thank the marketing team for changing the description of the offer:
    The TOS Value Bundle limited time offer includes:

    I may be a harsh curmudgeon at times, but that's because I want a fair deal for everyone. This rewording is far less ambiguous than the previous description.

    I think I'll be making a purchase tonight.


    Edit: The in-game C-Store still lists it as 'TODAY'.

    oh? so i can not wait for the next 20% sale to buy it?

    the ENT pack is still here, why would this one go away?

    and more importantly, if it goes away how do you get the stuff from the C-Store on a new char if the button is gone?

    *confused*

    the pack is not going anywhere (bridge, interiors, phaser, shuttle) but there are uniforms that are attached to the pack that are currently there for free for a limited time.

    after a few weeks those uniforms will only be available via separate purchases.

    you can still buy everything at any time but if you want the best deal price-wise then buy the pack in the next few weeks whilst the offer is on.
