Guild Wars 2

On the release notes Ascalonian Finisher is stated to cost 800 gems ( https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/updates/Game-Update-Notes-February-18-2014 ) but it costs 600 gems in Black Lion Trading Company. This means 25% off on this item.

The item announcement ( https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/incredible-new-items-in-the-gem-store-3/ ) does not state a limited time promotion on Ascalonian Finisher, nor that the item would itself be for a limited time in Black Lion Trading Post.

So, is this a bug or a bad info in release notes?
If I buy this item, will it be removed, modified or replaced because it was not intended to be sold for 25% off?

I don’t think anyone but CS could answer your question. And, then, maybe not even they would know, for sure.

This I can answer with absolute certainty. No, it will not be removed or replaced. If it’s their mistake, you just got it for 200 gems cheaper and you get to keep it.

I actually scratched my head and thought ‘’600 gems, really?’’ when I bought it. The Quaggan costed 800 gems, and I think the Ascalonian Captain finsiher is far more cooler. But if it was a mistake done by ArenaNet, all fine for me.

I still have no official answer on this topic.
