    Yes, I normally pay around $112 for an $89.99 pack.

    I am in Ontario. I never get tax on my purchases. I just get conversion of currency.

    I see the same prices from chrome, it shows up in usd, instead android app, which shows in huf much higher. You can see on my paypal email, that i paid 8464 huf for the 600 plat(which is 1 usd=282 huf exchange rate, 1 usd is 270 on the hungarian national bank central rate now, so 282 is acceptable), instead of paying 10.306 huf. Even with this high exchange rate, the 1700 plat packs should be 15500 Huf not that insane 18890!

    This wasnt the case in december, something happened since then..

    That might since STS didn't put the whole 40%. I think they made a mistake there

    When you go in a store the regular price is always next to the sale price so you know what kind of deal your getting. It makes perfect sense lol.

    Mistake...well I think it's time to fix it? Or is this 40% discount BS? I'm sorry for the word but as a customer a reply from a mod/dev would be welcome.

    I'm having a moan here....

    Whoah! A price hike! I normally buy 2 x 1700 plat packs in a 40% sale. I saw the new prices and was like...nah one will do XD

    You charging a lot of real money for just 1700 plat (virtual currency). Is it a coincidence that this price hike has come at the time of the imminent release of the new game - Call of PvP trashtalkers.

    Also, I know I suck at maths, but I doubt that is 40% off. I think you gave me 30% discount.

    The normal price of 1700 plat is now O.O

    Gold is hard to come by ingame, as most loot is either trash or devalued. The one and only vanity I gained via LB, you guys decided it would be untradable later on! I can't make any money from it, it will be rotting away in my inventory. Thank you for catering for the exclusive vanity crowd.

    So come new expansion and I'll be looking to sell stuff to gear up (instead of crying 'NERF pls, it's too hard' with level 41 gears). I will look at this untradable thing I can't sell for diddly squat, sitting in my inventory. And before anyone comes out with that cliche of 'money isn't everything', this is a game not real life, you need gold to progress your toon in this game. It's the reason why some of us are part of elite farming guilds.

    Well, my future investment and play time within this game shall be heavily reliant on farming in the new expansion. I hope my lepre starts working, it's about time it did!

    I gotta spend upto approx 100 quid for 1700 plat *spits out tea*

    Yea, honestly platinum is freaking expensive as hell. $89 for 1700? If you go to a game like clash of clans, I can get the gems that I need for $5-$10. Here, that won't do anything for you. And what's interesting is that JustG has edited the thread title, but he hasn't said anything about the fake discount.

    Hi all. The way these sales work is we define a price in US Dollars and then Apple and Google convert the prices to local currency and apply any necessary taxes. We don't control those things and those will change the price you see in the game depending on your location. It sounds like most of you are not paying in US Dollars so I think that's what's going on here.

    That said if you think you've encountered a pricing error please do contact Customer Support or PM me.

    That bring said.....you guys set a base price, it's still too damn high to pay for 1700 plat.

    80-100 quid can get you a lot irl, here it can't even get you a mythic weapon.

    They charge what people will pay; nothing more, nothing less.

    This issue was never happen, thats why we discuss here. Ikr converting dollars to local currency is unstable now bcoz the global economy condition isnt stable too, but like i said it was never happen. U always talk about make constructive post, but u always throw away your issues to others, u blaming our device before when lag issues come out, now u throw away this issues to google and apple. Sigh, cant u read carefully this thread from the beginning?
    1st. Why did u remove the original price?
    2nd. Why price in google, apple, and web (paypal) r different significanly?


    I'll skip this offer, i wont drink potion too.

    The only way to find out if this is google's or IOS's problem, is to see if it happens in other games. But you just can't say, oh well, you don't use USD you'll pay more. A lot of the game population is not in the US.
