1) there is 12000 AUR worth right/gold monocle in NeX on Tranquility;

2) there is almost identical left/gold monocle on Singularity which probably will be implemented on Tranquility in 1.1 update (tomorrow?);

3) quote from dev blog:

Quote:
we are going to be adding a number of items to the Nex store but at somewhat lower Aurum prices than we have in the past. Items will be available at 100, 300 and 500 AUR prices.


Does that mean left/gold monocle will cost 500AUR - 24 times less than right/gold monocle?

What's the matter, OP, did we run out of things to whine and ***** about?

I am perfectly cool with the new NEX changes, when virtual accessories and clothes cost 70 euros, you know something is bullshit right there.

It's to keep as an extra. You know, for those embarrassing times when you get to the restaurant, and realize "I seem to have left my monocle in my other body."

anybody who bought a monocle for last years price is pretty special.

The Monocle as 'Sauron's Eye peeking through The Door' pic still makes me laugh.

The left/gold may become one of those rare officer drops and is only in NEX to make sure the model was working well.
BUT, if it is one of the cheep ones. el, oh, el.

If prices come much closer to 5-20$ for novelty items, I may be willing to spend more than I intend to for a monthly subscription. Micro transaction mind f****. Smile

So close...

It will just give the righties another group of people to look down on - the lefties.

On an odd note, righties does not pass the spell check whereas lefties does. Elitism has already begun.

The rates you quoted are purchase prices for AUR directly with real monies, not the item purchase cost.

I was hoping this would be about male earring positioning and sexuality.

Monocle - mono meaning one, ocle in regards to sight.

If you wear two it's a bicycle.
