So I looked at the sale and noticed all that the plex cost for real life money has gone up? Is this intended CCP? Are you raising the real life cost of Plex?

I haven't kept tabs on it, but it might be a local exhange rate issue. CCP often adjust PLEX prices to match shifts in global exchange rates.

Could be the old jack up the regular price and then make the 'sale' price what the regular price used to be trick. It wouldn't be the first time CCP marketing tried something like that.

I'll need to take look though, before I rant with any righteous fervor about it.

I see the price of PLEX as $19.95, this is the price it has always been. What "sale" are you referring to?

Price for 2 PLEX on showing as $33.99 discounted from $39.99. Regular price used to be $34.99 and $31.99 on sale.

6 PLEX old regular price was $104.97 new regular price is $119.70

1 PLEX appears to be the same price but no more volume discounts!

But the 2 pack was regular price of 35 like other dude said.
Thats the entire reason why there exists 2 packs and 6 packs.
You buy more it is cheaper than just doing like 2 or 6 separate single plex trasnactions.

So yes the discount package prices are now gone or equivalent to just making 2 or 6 or 12 single 19.99 plex purchases.

I'm sorry if it wasn't clear before. Currently plex are on sale. Underneath the sale price is the normal price for plex. This normal nonsale price has increased from what it used to be. Does this compute for you now?

So no it didn't go up they changed the volume discount, that is two different things. I don't watch too closely but AFAIK, those discounts are fluctuating regularly.

Changing the volume discount is an increase in price for volume.

Buying in bulk is no longer as good of a deal as it use to be.

But wasn't this what people wanted in the first place?

If CCP were lacking money, they should just increase sub prices or plex prices, instead of figuring out other ways to attract new players into the game?

I suppose, when all is said and done, people really weren't honest about that.

It's not a huge deal, I was just asking them if it's intended or not.

Its literally ZERO deal now.

They should just get rid of the bundles then and make a Buy Plex 19.99 each box. With a little scroll down so you can select how many you want, each at 19.99 exact same price.
