Guild Wars 2

Just wondering why we don’t have any $5 transactions. I sometimes find that i don’t need the full 800 gems and would have a much easier time spending 5 dollars here and there. Maybe there’s some transaction fee I don’t know about that would make them lose profit with this?
I don’t know.. I just find that i have 5 dollars hanging around more often than I do 10

A lot of there items are under 400 diamonds. They can wiggle another 5 from you by not adding that option. You think this inflation happening right now was an accident? Anet has more control over their profit than you think

I don’t think this is really correct, if arena net is giving us only a 10$/€ option in my opinion is because items with a prica of 400 or less gems can be buyed easily with in game money…

Also i will not care so much about the 5$/€ option simply because you have to ask yourselvess this question:
“do i want to buy more things from gem store in the future?”
yes → so 10$/€ allows me to get 400 more gems for the future → no problem
no → so maybe i can buy this item with golds this time → no problem

The situation is the right contrary: Arena Net has all the controll it wants over our payments but the simple fact they they allow us to decide between golds or real money and that the shop is only for aesthetic make all more polite than you think.

All other game with minitransaction system sales good stuff for half the price as we have in GW2 – not to mention how very useless the items are.

If AN wants profit, they need to take mutch mutch more effort on the Gemstore…
