Dragonfly scout is the same price as Valor (but without reqs... unless it doesn't benefit from skills, that's wonky). Syndicate and Toxin 14k Aurum or so I think, |

CCP seriously screwed themselves by not marketing the omega booster better. I delayed purchasing it since I still had 3 weeks left on my current booster. Had CCP stated that it was a limited time offer I would have bought 12 of them. I'm probably not the only one. CCP missed an opportunity to get a nice boost in revenue to end the quarter. |

Had no idea the "Omega Passive Booster" was a limited time item.
I bought one on my alt account by mistake instead of on my main account, so had put in a ticket to get it transferred to my main account or if they couldn't do that refunded the AUR so i could buy the Omega on my main account where i wanted it.
Except today I got the AUR refunded and went to market to get the Omega..... and its GONE off the Market. BUMMER! My GM Ticket is still open, so wonder if they can work me some magic on my main account for the Omega Passive Booster. |

I read these forums a lot and I must have missed it. I'm sure there are a ton of potential buyers who never read these forums at all. CCP could have done better; i.e. it should have been shown in-game in the market.

I read the forums and took it as a simple necro thread from the deep past.
I had no idea they were actually marketing them. Oh well... |

IT clearly stated "This week only!" on the Store Front. |

Dragonfly scout and toxin smg are on the market you say?
Not very exclusive items then, despite what was stated in the description back when they sold the merc pack... And further reinforced by the "availability notice" when it was about to be removed:
CCP Frame wrote: In case you havenGÇÖt purchased one yet, this is your chance to be part of DUST 514 history, and own Dragonfly Scout dropsuit and Toxin Submachine Gun together in this pack!
Well played! Seems CCP enjoys forum rage and drama just as much as we do ;).
...but isn't it kinda stupid to discourage collectors from, well, collecting "exclusive" virtual items? |

I don't recall seeing it, but I play in 480p.

I noticed that coming. About a week after CCP Frame's statement some other CCP employee said that they would be available on the market. At least now we can see that buying a merc pack was a good deal. It was over 100,000 AUR value for $20.
It would be cool to see some more collectible gear in game but only if CCP keeps the availability limited and not play games like they do with the Genelution implants in Eve. Every time the supply seems to be drying up they give more away. Also, collectible gear should be BPCs not BPOs. That way if you lose them they become more valuable to the rest of the collectors.
