Removing bought dyes from costumes?

Runschei

As a non ESO+ member I have to buy dye from the crown store if I want to dye a costume. But how on earth do I remove the applied dye? o.O

Never tried without ESO+ but I'm almost certain you need to be a subscriber to do this.

I figured so but isn't that just plain stupid?

Yes absolutely! Never though of this problem but you should be able to remove dyes you even had to pay for as a non sub.

Well I just recently learned that I can dye costumes as sub so fairly new to the game of costumes and dyes

There is no way to actually remove them, your only option is to apply different dyes instead. (You also wont get the dye stamp back, I'm not sure if you're aware of that or not.)

Dye stamps are a really bad design IMO. They should have added a system like the race change and appearance change tokens (but cheaper) - non subscribers can apply dyes they have unlocked to a costume, or remove them, just like subscribers can but they have to buy a token from the crown store to save the changes.

They would actually have gotten a lot more money from me if they'd done it that way. When costume dying was first announced I assumed it'd work similar to that and I was planning to buy dye stamps for all my costumes. Instead I bought a 30 day subscription, which I realised later was actually cheaper, cancelled it immediately so it wouldn't renew and dyed all of my costumes for £9. (Plus I got the crowns, more expensive if you look at the price per-crown than my usual 5,500 packs, but not too bad.)
