Guild Wars 2

I’ve been on every day except maybe one day, specifically to check what’s on sale.

I found out while doing an random AC EXP that apparently there’s “Flash Sales” where keys HAVE gone on sale.

Arena Net, I’m supremely disappointed in your despicable business practices.

Do you know what that is?

It’s the picture from here:
https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/31-days-of-sales-in-the-gem-store/

Where you say:

Each day in March we’re putting a different item on sale in the Gem Store! Save from 15% to 40% on boosters, upgrades, consumables and more! Each sale begins and ends at midnight Pacific Standard Time, so make sure to check the Promotions tab in the Gem Store every day in March to see the daily savings!

There’s no nonsense about flash sales, and a KEY is clearly shown.

What, exactly, are we supposed to infer from this? Don’t play games, don’t play stupid. You want people online every day checking to see if keys are on sale to see if they’ll buy some of the other crap no one wants. Crafting boosters on sale today? I woulda got 20 more of them if keys ever went on sale.

You’ve got 4 more days to not end up as misleading jerks.

If I don’t see a key sale, legit, all day, by then, I’m probably not going to buy anything from the gem store for a long, long, long time. (And you probably wont put anything new in the store that isn’t stupid in that time, anyway)

News flash: BL keys were on sale for 20% off the other day. You must’ve missed it.

Yeah they were on sale yesterday, you missed it.

OP…..you’re right. These sales are silly. What Anet needs to do is stop putting things on sale….they’re only losing revenue when they do.

NO MORE SALES ARENANET!!!!! NO ONE LIKES THEM!!!!!

Does that about cover it?

Clearly were not on sale yesterday… I bought a ton of boxs and had no “sale”.

I believe it was actually 2-3 days ago.

There was a sale on keys I think two days ago, probably three now since it’s Wednesday.

I contemplated buying some while they were 5/360. (20% off) But I decided not to as I’m fairly disappointed with all the gambling for new items in BLC lately.

You missed it by a few days, nothing you can do now though.

I’m still waiting on the “upgrades”, which I assumed to be account upgrades.

I’m going to laugh if character slots are put on sale April 1st though. :P I just hope it’s not via another “flash” sale, especially since I can’t get Twitter to actually notify me of GW2 posts.

They went on sell a few day sago for 100 each and 360~ for 5. I bought nearly 24~ and ended up using 30~.

Everything in that picture has gone on sale except the mystic forge stones, unless I’m mistaken.

Ya big baby.

Forge Stones were on sale awhile back.

Funny stuff, since keys have gone on sale already.

A list of all things on sale so far.

Black Lion Keys were on sale all day on Saturday, March 23rd for 100 gems each, or 5 for 360 gems. It’s unfortunate that you missed it, and I do hope that you’ll still keep your eye out for sales that might interest you in the future. In order to offer considerable discounts on sales such as this one, we must limit them, whether by time or quantity.

I do, however, want to thank you for playing the game and for taking the time to follow sales in the Gem Store.

Who are you. You’re not John Smith. One of his minions?

Seeing several new faces in here lately ^^

Welcome to the forums Janson! It’s always nice to see someone from Anet shut down a complainer with facts. Although I do feel a tiny bit bad for the OP, seeing as how he pretty much pwn’d himself.

Hahahaahalololololobahwahahahaha – I have tears in my eyes…. That one day must have been the day the keys went on sale…. I swore I would never buy keys but sure enough I ended up buying quite a few on that day….

Well, I am disappointed. There has not been a single upgrade on sale all this month let alone “upgrades” as advertised.

Yeah, I know, there’s one day left. Course, that’s what I’ve been saying all week, “There’s still X days left” and every day is another non-upgrade sale.

Yep, I bought keys too, during the sale. I spent enough in the cash shop of GW1 to know that if something you think you might need goes on sale – buy it! I hope the revenues generated by the sales keep our world growing and healthy.

The Twitter flash sale on the BL salvage kits did annoy me, but I’m guessing forum the lack of further flash sales that it didn’t go over so well.

One more day left? Black Lion salvage kits. Do it!! You know it will be the highest revenue day of the month

Thanks again for the great work.

I would say keys was the highest, and more so after the release of the new skins ^^

I think we should back to the old mechanism… do all the events of the day, get enough to craft some, but not all, of the mini’s. Then… Oh My! What a surprise! You can use real world money to buy the rest of the mini’s!

Can we please try and make it not quite so obviously money gouging?

Well it is the end of a quarter. Daddy (NCSOFT) needs to look good.

Was saving to buy some salvage kits, but it seems that apart from that stealth flash sale they are never going to be on sale.
For the last day we get…revive orbs
…sigh

Still waiting for all those upgrade items to go on sale, since this is the 31st I have swiftly lost hope. I honestly dont care about the costume pieces just put the stuff people actually want on sale :/

Well, it’s official. Not a single “upgrade” on sale all month despite that being in the advertisement. Seems like it may have just been a ruse to get people to stock up on gems at the beginning of the month.

Wasn’t the sale on upgrades(slots) in February, or late Feb?

Edit: Looking online I think it might have been February 21. Having repeat sales isn’t something most companies do in such short of a time. That doesn’t mean however there won’t be more coming.

Or sorry it may have been Jan 5 and Feb ??-26th. Still can’t find an official page ^^;
