Subscribers, what are you buying with your Crowns?

I seem to keep a constant balance of 8k in Crowns because I can't figure what to buy. I have some mounts and some pets. I don't have a need to own a zoo.

So I'm asking, what's a favorite from the store?

    Toxin Doctor costume is pretty dope. If you don't like the head, which I don't, the rest of the costume is still great.

    Other than that I usually rock the Dragon Priest costume (looks awesome on my Argonian). Breton Hero costume is coming up, which looks very nice and will be at least 2k crowns.

    I like the Treethane Ceremonial Dress, too. Waiting for my sub to renew for that one.

    Nothing. Zilch. Nada.

    I'm sitting on 31,500 crowns if I'm not mistaken. I will not validate their peddling of pixels and fluff by spending them. I find it hard to justify playing - and therefore subscribing - to ESO right now, so my sub is currently cancelled as I play out the remaining time on my ESO+. After that, who knows...

    As a suscriber, I really don't think ZOS is bothered or worried too much that you are not validating their peddling. They are your coins that you already paid for.

    But, you've already validated it by giving them your money in the first place. Now all you're doing is having paid for a service you're refusing to accept.

    Hell if it were possible I'd ask you to send some of those crowns my way then...

    I bought two character slots, but other than that I only buy cosmetic stuff. I keep up with the latest datamined Crown Store stuff so that if I spot something that is likely going to be a limited offer and I really want it, I hold on to my Crowns instead of spending them on stuff that doesn't have a set date for leaving. Because my sub only renews every 6 months, I need to be careful not to blow my sub Crowns up too early on the semester, because I'm not buying any extra Crowns. Right now I'm waiting for the Ice Wolf.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    As a crafter I buy some mimic stones here and there , they are great to use instead of the rarer and the more expensive racial style stones.

    Bought some Horse speed upgrade for one toon once, because he was new and going slow in cyrodiil sucked lol.

    A few odds and ends here and they, the only mount I ever bought was the Nightmare Horse.

    Never bought any pets or costumes, dont use pets and I have enough costumes you get in game that i rarely use anyways.

    I have never bought any crowns ever, only what comes with ESO plus.... I have like 3000 to 4000 crowns at any giving time give or take.

    Oh i did buy one char slot, may buy more with my ESO plus crowns in the future.

    I paid for a service. €10/month isn't too bad as long as I find the game worth it. It's less than 2 movie tickets nowadays. The coins are the dark side of ESO and I am and have always been extremely critic of microtransactions anywhere. My crowns at least won't be pushing their numbers of skins, pets, mounts or other useless stuff they put in the store.

    Mostly some pets and a few costumes. I did buy some Horse and Bag space upgrades when they were on sale, I would like them to be on sale again sometime. In fact, until that sale, I am not going to buy a character slot and make a new character.

    I did buy the Glass Motif but that is the only one I have bought. I did buy some Mimic stones (I think they were on sale at the time) so I would not have to chase down the racial style materials. Only I have yet to use any of them.

    I have almost 19K in Crowns currently.

    Unfortunately, I don't buy anything and my crowns just keep building.

    I broke down and bought a costume and some motifs, but then I realized that they're only on one character, so I won't do that again.

    Oh well. Maybe they'll put a house on sale that I can buy. :)

    Bought a mount for each of my characters (5 of them, no senche :) ) but nothing beyond that. I'm hard-pressed to find anything worthwhile to purchase from the store.

    Every once in a while I buy a mount, but the lately the mount prices have been so high I have not bought any. I did not buy the wolf and it was decently priced.

    Most of the time I buy repair kits when I run out in a trial or something. Really there is not much at this point. The motifs at 5k are to much and it takes to long to recoup that loss.

    I guess I am pretty much hording them :)

    I buy only the things that I find super awesome. Like the netch pet, and senche mounts...a few costumes as well. I'm saving everything for the Shaman costume right now, in case it is disgustingly over priced. Then I will be saving again for if I like the October (I assume) Senche mount.

    1. Every DLC's in its collector edition because I have exp scrolls, a mount and pet at full price but the DLC itself is like 500/700 crowns and because I want to own the entire game even if I have to cancel my subscription someday for any reason, although I don't plan to.
    2. STARTER PACK, it's cheaper than buying everything it has one by one and I want mounts and pets but not at full price.
    3. ADVENTURER PACK, I had the play any race in any faction perk from the pre-order bonus but I missed everything else from the pack, so I bought it.
    4. DIGITAL IMPERIAL EDITION UPGRADE, I would have bought it if I hadn't already bought the game in its imperial edition.
    5. ASSISTANTS, expensive but not interested in cosmetic stuff (so many, so expensive, never stop coming), those NPC's can save me some of my play time.
    6. The Black Fredas Special bundle, because it had a value of 8100 Crowns for 1900 with a unique mount.
    7. All the Additional Character Slots because the more the better! ;)

    But if I had money to waste, I'd buy everything! :D

    People keep mentioning mounts.

    Why? Are they important for some reason?

    I'll admit that I'm starting over from scratch after many months off, but, even previously when I made it up to V14, I never used a mount.

    Perhaps they're more important in PvP?

    Personally, my biggest pet-peeve is people calling mounts in the middle of a city and tearing about like they actually have something important to do.
