So the 30 day boosters are on the marketplace, normally they would be 28k AUR but they are on sale for 21. Suppose they stay on the marketplace after the sale for normal price of 28k, how is that a even a deal if you buy four of them at 7k? 4 x 7= 28
Thoughts? |

Oh my GOD! They should hire you as their new sales and marketing manager!
/end sarcasm.
Who knows and who cares. Maybe it's not mean to be a "deal" just an option. I'm pretty sure they have people on staff to figure this stuff out and if they don't like the way it's working for them or the game they'll adjust it. |

Why don't you just buy a merc pack for $20 and get a 30 day booster on top of the 40k AUR? |

I don't understand your logic. It's a deal because you get 30 days for 21k Aurum. which normally would be 28k Aurum.
It's 25% off. There a good deal. |

I'm talking about after the sale, IF they leave it on the marketplace for full price. |

You also don't need to worry about plugging in new boosters every 7 days or so. |

Just another marketing scheme, say its "on sale" and the sheep will flock to buy it. Post a high price and then sell it for a lower one. It's just general marketing. Like when someone won't buy an item for 10,000 isk but 9999isk is a bargain!! |

In case you haven't been paying attention, it's a weekly deal, meaning it won't last forever. Case closed |

Finally put my AURUM to good use, tho it begs the question what happens when i use all my gamestop merc packs that still say i get all my aurum refunded and everything else refunded for reset and on commercial release(note language doesnt specifically state that commercial release includes a wipe of my character either)?
Not trying to be a troll this really isn't a good position for CCP to be in having that language still on them.

I think at the moment ccp are in a tight place if they dont reset the aurum there will be up roar with trades descriptions act and if they do, people may be annoyed as people will be using their boosters twice to get even more SP.
the only fair way to do it is a full character rest, which will annoy even more people( i like this option as i think the best part of this game is the begging)
so yeah i feel ccp are about to get some hate mail from the community which ever option they choose |

I've been reading about this reset and merc pack and I have no idea what people are mad about. If you get to keep the same items and get the same # of skill points, what is the problem?
I bought the merc pack by the way, from what I read I get all the items back and get to keep my SP. I would definately not be angry if I didn't get "another" booster if I got to keep my SP. Those people who would be mad about it are contract @$@#$ and should be slapped. You already got the implied benefit of the item, which is the SP. |

Buy a merc pack
1 30day booster and 40k AUR which can get you a months worth of passive to boot and a few more if you wish |
