Alliance Music Boxes - Please add to store permanently

The new music boxes are gorgeous, the ZOS team has done a great job on these!

But what a shame that they are only in store for a limited time. It would be great to have these added permanently to the crown store, so that we can buy them at any time for our homes or future homes.

Pls ZOS!

    Agree - also as a note, them being in for so short a time means I'm VERY unlikely to get them. I'm not working on a house that can use them at the moment. The one time I bought the old music box it was for a very specific project at least a month after it had been added to the store.

    Agreed! I'm out of town but would really love these. Please tell the approps people to keep them as a permanent addition to the store or at least as something to be purchased through the housing editor @ZOS_GinaBruno !

    Yep, agreed. I bought one of each because I can use them for specific projects at the moment..however predicting future projects is too difficult and who has the space to store extras anyway? I'm sure that ZOS would get a lot more sales overall if they were permanently available for sale and we could purchase them as required.

    Totally agree. Why does the first music box stay in the crown store on permanent status, and these limited?

    They could start a new listing folder just for music boxes, under the housing things in crown store.

    Sorry for mildly hijacking this thread:
    Does anyone know how these music boxes work? If I put one in the courtyard of my house, will you hear the music everywhere around the house (at the same volume)? If I put a second one inside the house, will you hear the music everywhere inside (at the same volume)?
    And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
    And if there is no room upon the hill
    And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too

    If the courtyard is behind a door, then no, you won't hear the music box inside the house.

    Example: I have a music box in my Velothi Reverie. It can be heard in the whole interior part of the house, but the courtyard is separate, therefore, it is not be heard there. This bave me the opportunty to place a second, different, music box in the courtyard.

    The volume seems to go down a bit with distance. When I placed the box in the Grand Psijic Villa exterior (near the spawn spot), I was able to reach a point where I couldn't hear the music anymore.

    You can have multiple different music boxes playing at once, and the melodies are mixed together. I do not have more of a single type, so I cannot test what happens if you place more than one with the same melody in the same house.

    Yes, please make them permanent additions to the crown store. I bought one of each with gold from a player, but I won't have that much gold again in time to buy more.

    They (incorrectly) think that making new shiny objects (houses included) be available for a limited time only will make people want them even more....You know what, it actually just might!!

    But the problem is, no matter how much I want something I'm not dumb enough to forgo paying my rent or bills to buy an imaginary object if I just don't have the funds in that moment.

    Jane "Hey John that's an awesome music box you have, where can I buy one?"

    John "Sorry Jane, You just can't. ZOS are real dumb when it comes to this stuff and often make items limited time only"

    Jane "Oh John that does indeed sound like a pretty dumb marketing idea! So I guess they don't want my money after all. Lets get pizza instead"

    If they made them collectibles, I might buy some. But at 800 crowns a pop, they're just not worth it to me. Plus, I'd rather have a bard NPC.
