Yup, Norway (at least where I live), has picked up on this sales day as well.

Well it is evening in EU, so it is a fair question

What part of the U.S. Is that?

Just kidding. ^^

ANet goes by their time, in the Pacific coast, so most updates are evening/night over in the far reaches of the universe where Europeans live.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

We got a bunch of items on sale a few days ago. Since ANet stopped doing any kind of sales since the announcement of HoT in January, you could consider someone screwed up and started the Black Friday sales a week or so earlier, because the greed is strong in them, so many items on sale at once couldn’t be something normal.

Same, I have 2001 gems because I was ready when That_Shaman leaked a few things plus the excitement for Black Friday. What a let down. I think if we hold gems, the price to gold goes down too, which just sucks because we get less gold for our gems because more people have gems.

What sucks is that’s true. They probably got so much money from people buying gems ready for Black Friday. The problem is on them though. Without a sale, more people are going to have gems; they won’t make as much money when they actually do have a sale because we all held on to our gems.

Not exactly.

Gems sitting unspent are gems that are not replaced by buying more gems. A one time purchase is nowhere as good as a steady flow of purchases.

Well, REI chose not to, electing to let their employees have a vacation. Granted, a gem store sale could likely be programmed to go off automatically and not need nearly so much human effort as manning a retail store, but apparently ANet isn’t the only one balking.

Also note they did tweet they’d be thanking us “this weekend” with things in the gem store, so the next two days could hold more than did today. The tweet was "We’re thankful for #GW2 players for being part of our journey–visit the gem store this weekend for thank-you gifts! "

There was a twitter post saying there would be free items in the gem store this weekend. As for Black Friday… that’s mostly a U.S. thing, as any other country that does celebrate some form of Thanksgiving do so in a different day.

The items are there now… a single TP and an XP booster.

I’m only here because sometimes I just like to watch things burn.

No, I mean for that specific person. It also may not matter based on the player turn over. they may cycle through players fast enough & steadily enough to just sell gems.

It may be one person, but that one person is a member of all the players who are sitting on unspent gems and that is not an irrelevant consideration. All those unspent gems are a profit lost to them when they aren’t spent and replaced. There’s no reason they should pass up a sale to a willing customer on the grounds that there will be more customers later.

$200 worth of gem store items for $100, but you only want maybe $20 or $30 of it.

And they’re all exclusive to the bundle.

And you need a mastery to buy it.

Until they re-release all of the outfits as armor sets that can be mixed and matched in the weight class used to build them (some are quite obvious…) there’s really not much they can put in the Gem store for me to buy…

I rarely buy minis. I bought tools (have plenty). I bought bank and bag space (have plenty). I will never buy outfits (blech!). I WOULD buy more armor sets. Pretty simple really.

Their marketing genius who came up with ‘no more armor in the store’ needs something a lot nastier than a lump of coal in her stocking this year.
