    Default Big issue!

    I just noticed that the pinks awarded from the promo codes are sellable in the cs and it needs to stop. People can take a huge advantage of this and try selling them for a lot.

    To sell them would be like scamming a person IMO

    Sorry but that's like saying selling drops is the same as scamming due to the fact that they could just go get those own drops....lol

    How is it an issue when they are only getting 350 gold out of it? O.o Instead of the gold prices inflating, they are just very affordable for low level players.

    This is waaay different. You don't have to spend time and energy (lol energy makes sense now in DL ) to get these pinks. All you have to do is copy and paste the promo and *ding* instant pink enters your inventory. I did not say AT ALL that selling pinks that drop are scams. This is a scam because all you have to do is just type in a code for them.

    It would only be a scam if you were telling the people who were buying the items that they were not promo items, but when you put it in the AH, you don't say if it is or is not a promo. Also, if someone looks in the AH, sees 50 of the same weapon listed and does not wonder how so many people got them so quickly, then that person is a bit clueless.

    This is not a major issue i agree with others this is not any diffrent then getting them in a drop.... However the lack of ability to scroll your stash items is a major issue

    They should be made untradeable anyway. I don't want this thread to burst, but these pinks need to stop being able to be sold 1 gold over it's liquidation price: 0

    You can only use it once per account anyway even if you have more than one character so people can't stock up and sell a bunch.

    Then report them & let StS handle them. You can even check the AC before buying from a player.

    Its like buying a car off the street verses buying it from a dealer. Don't let yourself get hustled either way.

    Not a big issue. Promo codes won't be forever so once they're done new players who never had the chance to get them can buy in the auction and eventually they will all sell out and become rare. :3 Just my 2 cents of course.
