This is the official discussion thread for the web article, "So You Want to Own a Netch."

The adorable bull netch is the latest plush available from GamingHeads and the Bethesda Store! Do you plan on adding the cuddly creature to your collection?

Siguno · March 2015

!!!.

Does it include a pet?

newtinmpls · March 2015

Netches in-game are way too small (like mud crabs, cliff racers and nix hounds). I used to play Morrowind ... well on occasion I still do. And my tiny little Breton could probably ride a slightly-bigger-than-average nix hound.

Hey, @gurluasb16_ESO. The bull netch plush does not include a vanity pet.

We're glad you're digging it, @Siguno! If you end up grabbing one, be sure to show us some pictures so we can show them on a future ESO Live.

Dear netchhead,

As king of the netches, help me and other Australians adopt one of your kin. There is a drastic shortage of netches down under, due to the unaffordable transportation cost.

I can afford $20 usd (even though it's $25 australian) in order to happily rehome one of these magnificent creatures.

Sadly the transportation cost is very prohibitive.

It would cost me an additional $23 U.S. dollars for my netch to reach Australia!

While I understand that my netch would have to be fed, watered and cuddled on its journey, this cost is more than I can afford. May I suggest hiring argonians to transport my netch as they surely would be more affordable then the merchants currently hired. Additional travel time would be fine if I could only transport my netch at a reduced cost.

Thanks you for you consideration my liege,
Yours patiently, Ashlee

Spain has even a worst transportation fee, the daedras of shipping ask us 28 dollar for the transportation!
So, a single netchi costs us near 50 dollar. I'd really like having the netchi or the guar plush so much, but the high cost of transportations is prohibitive to me. Shipping to the United Kingdom in the Gaming Heads store costs around 8 dollar. Why that significative difference? Spain is not that far from the UK, why do we have to pay more than living in Australia?

Please allow a french store distributing your products. I already had this issue when I bought the retail imperial edition of ESO. A UK store asked me 45 euro for the shipping (after cancelling my order 3 times, and the last time 5 days before the start of open beta). I finally had to buy the game in Amazon France, which gave me an excellent service and asked me only 11 euro for the shipping.

Another fact I don't get is duplicating the item also duplicates the shipping cost. How can two plushes have a 56 dollar transportation fee?

I wanted to report a bug on the Store.

The netch is missing in the headwear category:

I've only bought plushies for the in game pet. No vanity pet= no netch plushie to join its mates on my bed.

That said- I'm happy no in game netches eating or dangling over my face whilst at banker. Now for a in game flamethrower for iced slaughter fish.

O.o
I see that buying a netch on another website (GH) gets you the guar in game code.

Is that also available up there ^ ^ ^ in store @ZOS_JasonLeavey ?

ZOS_JasonLeavey · March 2015

Looks like an oversight, @Patros.

Hey @SLy_Kyti. Where are you seeing that? That shouldn't be the case, whether purchasing from the Bethesda Store or Gaming Heads.

Zimnel · March 2015

Will consider a french store too, pretty please with cookies?

Want to read this article, but every time I'm clicking the link, it's redirecting me to the Age Gate page. I'm entering my date of birth (I'm 24 years old, it's OK to read about plush netches, I think!) and getting to the main site page (http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/home). Click the article link again and... Age Gate. This is endless cycle!

Tried two other browsers, the same story.

UPD: the problem was solved by itself

Gidorick · March 2015

That's a shame about it not including the Vanity Pet... the vanity pet was like 80% of the reason I bought the other two plush animals. Getting a plush version was just an added bonus.

I'd really like to have this Netch, but without the additional incentive of an in-game Netch pet I don't think I'll be getting one.

Please include vanity pets with future plush animals. If you decide to do something were a proof of purchase of this plush will yield an in-game Netch pet I will 100% get one! As it stands, it's a no-go.

Thanks!

Siliconhobbit_ESO · March 2015

I'll buy the plush Netch if it comes with an in-game vanity pet. No pet, no Netch. Bethesda and ZOS...email me when this happens. Thanx!

Gidorick · March 2015

Hey @ZOS_JasonLeavey, whom should we contact to let them know that we prefer to have in-game vanity pets included with our plush animals and that without them, we aren't interested in the plush animal?

ZOS_JasonLeavey · March 2015

Hey @Gidorick,

We can certainly pass along your feedback!

Yeah, you should try that move in one of your suggestion threads.

Lol. That would be great eh?

Rshidva · March 2015

It's sooooo beauuuutiful!!!!

ArielleJureaux · March 2015

If it came with an in-game vanity pet, I would buy it.

This seems to be the consensus of opinion. I am in the same boat...

Gidorick · April 2015

I noticed the current SHIP date is April 17th... while there may not be time to have the little tag have a code added to it (as other plushes have had) there is time to set up a code to mail out to people.

I would love to have a Netch as a pet. I think I might play an Dunmer then.

Gidorick · April 2015

I find it interesting how they're still having a hard time keeping the Plush Guar in stock but there are plenty of the the brand new Netch Plush.

I know there's no way this information would make it to us, but I would like to know how the Netch is selling compared to the other two plush animals.
