One would think the Wintersday items would be in the gem store until the event is over, but one would be wrong.

Sue me for not playing the game for a few weeks, I guess? Oh well, I hardly need more minis that I will barely ever use anyway. I’m not going to lose any sleep over it. I just don’t understand these decisions. That is all.

Therefore we proceed to write a sig.

I know why they have a time limit. What I don’t understand is why that limit was before the end of the event, like I said.

Probably a miscommunication between staff who manage different areas of the game. The event should be ending, but the LS schedule got pushed back.

It hasn’t even been the usual four weeks yet. Furthermore, content patches are on Tuesdays anymore, if I’m not mistaken, and I seriously doubt they ever intended to push one out on New Year’s Eve.

Which items do you mean? The Fancy Winter Clothing was still there a day or two ago.

The Wintersday Minis 3-Pack is one thing, which I hinted at in my first post.

That is what makes it even more odd, though: Some of the Wintersday stuff, like the finishers and Fancy Winter Outfit, still is in the store, and some isn’t.

Therefore we proceed to write a sig.

Yeah was planning to buy the Wintersday Mini 3 pack but was expecting it to dissappear when the event is over. Oh well their loss as im sure I’m not the only one who waits til the end to buy things specially since there was no notice that they where removing them so abruptly.

Not quite NO notice. If you looked at the Gem Store in-game, all the items that were removed did have the usual “Only X days remaining” notice on them prior to them being removed (they were removed at midnight on New Years Day). I just happened to be browsing the Gem Store on new years eve and saw they were all marked for only 8 hours remaining at the time.

There was no warning on the forums or the official website that I’ve seen, though.

Ok but most of us are used to limited time gem store items disappearing when the event ends. Like I haven’t missed buying any limited mini packs til this one. I’m sure I’m not the only one who missed buying it, probably hundreds of missed sales that they could have sold.
