Why should people who bought the merc pack have to choose which one of CCP's promises get kept to them?
One way they are put at a disadvantage to players who CCP didn't make the agreement with, greatly in excess of value of this AUR, the other they lose out on a purchase they made. |

There are plenty of other solutions to look at:
Give players who were promised future products to the value of a full merc pack non-AUR/booster items to the value of a merc pack.
A full SP refund for everyone, coupled with a merc pack for those purchased under those terms. Players who receive this merc pack have the SP which can be directly tied to their merc pack purchase deducted from their total.
CCP actually don't break any of their promises and on commercial release players are given another merc pack if they bought it under an agreement that said they could have another.
...trying to find a solution based on "oh, well this SEEMS fair" while disregarding the technical details of the issue isn't a good approach. |

One way they are put at a disadvantage to players who CCP didn't make the agreement with, greatly in excess of value of this AUR, the other they lose out on a purchase they made. Can you come up with a better solution? A solution that satisfies both sides. "Both sides?" Meaning "players" and "CCP?" No. The two sides are: Side 1: The pro-refund crowd of players. Side 2: The anti-refund crowd of players.
The pro-refund players are consumers who want exactly what they paid for.
The anti-refund players don't actually get a say in whether these consumers get what CCP agreed to give them and are free to stamp their feet and express their discontent but their opinions on what is fair have no bearing on the legal agreement between CCP and the players who are entitled to products to the value of a merc pack. |
