I see your point. How much AUR did the merc pack come with?
Also they kinda bought their way into the beta and might lose all this stuff when the wipe comes.
What CCP needs to do is sell more permanent weapons. I'm not gonna pay AUR for good weapons to get squished by a drop ship or get flanked by a bunch of people because my team mates decide to play rambo. |

Ok I just saw that the Merc pack comes with 4,000 Aur. That is not fair to the people who opened their wallets earlier. |

In the real world, stores will sometimes refund you the difference in sale price if you purchase an item that later goes on sale. However they are doing this out of the goodness of their heart and you are in no means entitled to get the reduced price. You bought something, and then a later deal came out. Its not "unfair", you just got unlucky, and that's just how businesses work.
So sick and tired of people whining "OMG THATS NOT FAIR GIVE ME MOOOAAAARRR" Just because you "opened your wallet" doesn't mean you're doing them a favor and are thus entitled to special treatment, you purchased and item for the listed price at the time and received something in return.
*facepalm* You people are going to be the death of me I swear...

I bet if it happened to you, you wouldn't be so logical. |

Most of us that aren't teenagers and actually have our own incomes have this happen to us constantly throughout our lives. I remodeled my kitchen, 3 months later a new model of the fridge I bought came out that I liked better for the same price. Do you think Lowes is just going to do a swap for me and take my now devalued, used product as a fair trade? I filled up the gas tank in my truck last week when gas was $3.70/gal and yesterday it was $3.02/gal. Edit: and, when I went to top off the tank this morning it was back up to $3.37/gal. Do you think the gas station is going to give me a refund in either case? It's part of life. Happens every single day. You can either throw a tantrum, realize it was something beyond anyone's control, or in the cases of some things learn to do better research before a purchase. I can only imagine someone's finally going to buy a PS3 the day before the PS4 comes out, completely unaware of the people outside setting up tents to wait overnight to buy it, and throw a tantrum on a forum over it.
Gas fluctuates constantly. That is not a similar premise to the situation. This is a digital product that is not effected by warmongering nations. (At least until the Corporations become involved from EVE )
So if your fridge cost 700. Then one month later they bring out the same fridge, WITH dishwasher, stove, and microwave for a bundle for the same price of 700. You wouldn't feel remorse?
Most stores have return periods of 60-90 days. Imagine if said store said too bad so sad. This is grownup land. Would you be inclined to return to that store? No, because it is bad business thought. If CCP adopts a Buyer Beware stance of business then they will loose peoples money, and this is what truly will keep the game running.
Why did Walmart become a massive retail giant? Not from inflating prices and telling customers too bad so sad. They focused on customer service. Good prices, good return policies, and fair deals.
Moral of the story: Don't be the first to open your wallet.
You are right though price inflation and deflation occurs in real life. The house some people bought for 500,000 won't even sell for 90,000 in the matter of a couple of years. |
