Guild Wars 2

The Valentine’s Bundle sale was ending in an hour. When it got to 0 seconds left, it just reset, and is back up again.

Same for the Bandit Sniper Bundle.

Also, uh. Why is everything always 20-50% off it seems? Do they ever sell Bundles at the normal price, or is it always a certain percent off until it gets taken down?

I believe the discount is often vs. what the items would cost separately. Whether that be bundled or in multiples.

The same reason why in various countries, there are certain companies that are ALWAYS running 50% off sales. It’s just marketing. You see it, you think “oooh, that’s a good deal, maybe i will get it” and they get an impulse buy

Anyone know if anything new is going up today in the Gem Store?

I don’t, but who knows. I thought it was always a two week gap, or am I wrong?

Yep that was strange. I was wondering about it too (and I like it, because now I have more time to grind the gold for it).

About the other stuff: Common anet marketing/sell technic.

… They were on sale last week… (I think last friday?)

Don’t think they were. I had to buy one and it cost me 125g / 500g for 5.

That would still be a ripoff. 5/100gems, and maybe it’d be acceptable for the garbage those bags spit out.

^^ Fair comment

One man’s garbage is another man’s treasure. I have been very fortunate with my RNG from BL Chests.

I don’t have a problem with the price. Even better when they are on sale.

Your RNG isn’t my RNG. And my garbage, sadly, remains my garbage, because it’s account bound.
I’m really hoping that the EU and US come down on this predatory practice of gambling boxes.
