EVE General Discussion

Yes I did, OP. Everyone posting in this thread got it except you.

Your rant basically translates to

"I bought a product once and now that product is never allowed to drop in price or go on sale again."

There's really nothing more to it than that and I get it, I really do. It's one of the easiest fallacies to fall victim to. I've done it several times.

But you have to get over it. CCP is fully within their right to charge whatever they want for their products and you're fully within your right to accept or reject their offer. That's how the market works. They asked you for 150 euros and you paid it.

Now they're asking for 100 euros and someone else is paying it. Because the market for people who are willing to pay 150 euros is now saturated. Everyone who was willing to pay 150 already paid it. So now they work their way down.

And even implying that they don't have the right to is just acting entitled.

You mean that a company tries to maximize it's profit? *applaud*
For a second I thought you meant me with the 5 year old...

You sir absolutely miss the point. I feel sorry for you.

Wow this is really interesting. And because of that I can't complain about what they do?
I never said they do something illegal. I am just stating that I am not ok with it.
I don't have the power to force them to do anything about this. I am making a point and was hoping that others also think that this sales policy is in some way offending to the customers.

Why not tell them when you are not happy with what they do? How am I supposed to see politics changing if I don't tell them?

If you're such a free speech advocate, then you should probably tone down your snapping at people that tell you they disagree with your arguments.

You come to the forums, nostrils flaring, breathing fire and, if I may say, quite a bit hostile on top of all that.

And yet you expect to be given room to flail and thrash unrestricted.

The right to an opinion is not a one-way street. If you understood that you wouldn't be so hostile towards everyone who gave you a counter argument.

But I don't even know why the **** I'm even bothering to type all this since you'll just Ctrl+V the "You missed the point" you had in your clipboard since you started this thread.

Someone give me a Like, I'll feel less empty inside.

mine is still underway....

Tell me if I got this correct:

You complain about a special offer, which was offered at a special time. You also Complain about price cuts?
As someone who works in retail (I manage a videogame store), I will only say that the law is not with you in this case, regardless of your feelings.

I also do not agree with how you feel, since price cuts and discounts, and special offers are nothing new. You new xmas was coming, yet you chose to support CCP and buy it beforehand (I assume that was the case). Xmas is all about special offers.

Discounts happen instantly. One day an item is 150, the next it 100. This is how it happens. It's nothing personal, and no one cheated you out of anything. You want low prices? Next time you wait.

And sorry if I sound rude, but your post read rude to me.

I thought you pre-ordered so you could brag about how up-to-speed you are, and how behind-the-times everybody else is [was]. You buy the bragging rights then complain about the deal? NVM (as was mentioned) the later discounted package wasn't an exact duplicate of what you bought (which apparently you do), buying the discounted package has NO bragging rights attached. In fact, those people are tagged with "I'm cheap!"

Yet, you complain. Have you no sense of the modern market system? Can't you get screwed and like it, just as the rest of us do? What makes YOU so special, HUH??? Geez. You'd think you expect to get your money's worth! Who are you, GOD??
