What did you get that cost approximately 70 bucks per meal?!

Or was that including adult beverages? Cuz then I can actually see it.

If you're makin 100k+ a year, and playin eso...(i mean with enough time to actually play) then I'm gonna go all body snatcher on you

3 adult drinks total, plus two Shirley Temples.

Time to play is the tough part, which is why I'll spend on convenience. I get about an hour a day on "work nights", more on week ends.

It doesn't have to take more time to make 100k than it takes to make 60k, so long as you have a valuable skill set.

Be thankful it doesn't have RNG on what you get in crowns.

Or worse, RNG on what amount it charges your credit card.

Paypal takes a lot of effort out of the grind.

But still super annoying.

Yeah, but I'm old. Finished buying (today) so now hoping they come up with a QUANTITY field by the next one. I opened a ticket and got an official response that they currently have no way to do multi pack purchases.

Thanks, I hadn't even thought about using PayPal.

Too bad they can't seem to add a quantity box, that is aggravating.

As an aside, notice that the Crown Store has not added a new poly morph in ages?

I honestly think there are laws against the sale of multiple packs like that. Im just speculating but Im sure there are rules at the very least.

Well it is a form of gambling so I wouldn't be surprised if they take extra precautions

Ya got me beat. It's nice to see others here that aren't teens or twentysomethings. My wife's friends give me grief for being a gamer, but their teen and twentysomething kids love to come up to my library and do some 4 computer LAN gaming.
The buying of crates may loosely be called gambling but the purchase of crowns isn't. There must be some reason they haven't done something this basic.

My first guess is that it is a safety measure, so that people with stolen credit cards cannot instantly buy a 1000 crown crates. They let you buy 1 by 1, so that when you buy many crates repeatedly, your bank becomes suspicious.

You aren't buying the crates directly. You have to buy crowns which you can turn around and use to buy crates.

Haha, yea I'm probably not that well informed since I don't buy crowns. I just do with the monthly 1500.

Anyway, why are people saying they have to issue CC information over and over? Is there a maximum amount of crowns you can buy in one go? What would stop you from buying a larger amount of crowns, so that you can then buy more crown crates without having to do all the CC nuisance again? Forgive me my ignorance, but I'm simply interested.

The biggest pack of crowns you can buy is 5500. If you want 22000, you have to enter the data 4 times in 4 different transactions. Once you've bought as many as you want, you could buy however many crown crates that can afford.

Yes a maximum is imposed. You may only buy one bundle of crowns at a time regardless of size, with the 5,500 bundle being the largest. Ergo, one has to repeatedly enter their CC info for each individual purchase.

No we could never ever ever do that; crowns you see serve a dual but all important purpose.

They let us get cool stuff and they absolutely Trigger the living dog poop out of some folks.

It's a win win.

MakoFore

i was coming on here to post the same thing actually lol. funny how Zos would actually impede their own ability to make money by not having a shopping cart. d'oh.


seriously - I wanted to buy 5 when i logged on- but after entering my credit card number twice- i decided that was enough. the cool down kills the buying impulse that drives the industry ZOS- learn the game!!! App purchases are emotion based purchases- otherwise what rational idiot spends real money buying imaginary things in an imaginary world!?!?!
the more time you give people to think and consider this- the less money you make.
Class dismissed. I'm here to teach- again- I'm available for work after November. will work for crowns.

Koensol

Okay, so that is basically the same principle as my first post, in that it is a safety measure. But in this case we are speaking of packs of crows in stead of the crates. I can't think of any other logical reason.

Not trying to brag but that's exactly my position...busted my butt to get to where I am today.

I really have buyers remorse now, but I dropped like 200 bucks this morning on crowns between all 3 of our accounts (wife plays too).

Malamar1229

I think they honestly have it set up this way to help against some of the impulse buying. Maybe trying to be responsible...who knows.

But when sales like this happens, yeah I wish I could buy packages in bulk.

Buying multiple crown packs because of the sale. Can only buy 1 pack at a time, have to enter in my CC info every time. Huge grind. For the love of everything why can't I add multiple packs to your cart? If that herculean achievement in coding isn't possible, how about an 1100 crown pack?

May quit because the grind is too much.

Agreed. Was a bit annoying to get several packs today.

Pwnyridah

Hmmm on ps4 at 44510 crowns and 5500 crown pack no longer has a buy button lol. Maybe this is a good thing. Is there a cap on max crowns or max purchases? There is a buy button for the smaller crown packs.

Edit: Nevermind the buy button came back...gulp.

Not your business. I guess you'd rather go back to mandatory subscription fees than have people buy anything from the crown store. Too bad.

Nice to see I am not the only one. I asked some guildies on Discord last night if there was a way to buy mutliple packs at once.

Before I body snatcher you, may I ask what it is you do? I'd also like to know how (or round abouts) how old you are? If I'm not being to bold @Malamar1229
