Can't use 100% off T6 discount coupon to buy the Somerville

As title. I've been saving my 100% discount T6 ship coupon and when the Somerville popped up in the store today I wanted to buy it but apparently it's unable to be purchased with the coupon? Is this intended?

    Yeah, give it a couple of months and once it gets moved out of the "NEW" tab, it should be available to get using the 100% discount coupon.

    I would guess that 50% off coupon that came with one of the recent bundles would work the exact same way.

    It might be intentional, but it still isn't nice given that those two new ships are the *only* ones i don't yet own. Maybe it could be changed under this condition? It will not save or make them any money if they let me wait on the ship, i'll not be paying for it when i have a 100% discount coupon i can't use on others. All it did right now was annoy me into closing the game. And it'll likely keep nagging me whenever i look at the store, aka make me *not* look there...

    First of all, why should Cryptic miss out on a profit when the ship has just been released? As well what about those who are going to purchase the ship with zen? What you propose would not be fair for those players and would also affect Cryptic's profits. No, it should not be changed under this condition. You can use the coupon on the others instead of this one, when they are not in the new section anymore. You are the one choosing to be annoyed to close the game. You are the one that is allowing yourself to feel that they are nagging you. Take a deep breath and wait. Thanks. :)

    Was always KNOWN from the info released..The 100% discount token was never ever meant for NEW ships..

    And as rightly mentioned above by sthe91, why should cryptic give a new ship added to the line from which they earn a profit initially, for free?? There are already quite a few that have purchased the new ship and are fine with it..SO..If you don't want to purchase it, relax, chill and wait till it falls out of the New tab which maybe a few months..The game needs to make some money in order to keep running..
