51 Million, not billion.Araneae6537 wrote: »Quoted post has been removed.
Or an ESO billionaire.
34 sets of 15 crates would be 170,000 Crowns.
The going rate on PC NA is 300:1, making that 51 billion.

Or in US$, 170k is 8 21k packs plus an additional 2k. Gotten on sale, that would be around $800.
I know there are some people with a lot of gold in ESO, but the second scenario does seem more likely. 🤔 A lot to spend, but millionaire would be a bit hyperbolic! 😉

Did they buy the crowns direct or get someone to gift them with gold?
I know crown exchange has limits on the number of crown crates one person can purchase in one month or fortnight to make sure they have supply for other customers or it use to, been awhile since I last visited the discord.
It would be possible to buy them with gifted crowns would take awhile to find enough trustworthy sellers for that kinda quantity though.
The gold cost over a bit over 50 million, been plenty of polls on the forums over the years asking people how much gold they have one of the most recent below:

It could just be someone with a budget for gaming, I tend to justify my spending real life cash on the game by the fact that I have bought very few if any games these last few years, so the money I would have spent on new games I occasionally spent here, at most though one of the 21K crown packs maybe twice a year if that.
That said I buy a lot more stuff gifted these days with gold when I can.
Plenty of people out there with a large amount of disposable income or a lack of control when it comes to their spending habits so someone buying that quantity of crates outright does not surprise me, doesn't stop me from thinking its a waste of that much money though.
Its 400/1, not 300/1. If you're lucky, you can get 350/1 with a lot of crying on WCE. Last week was 425/1. You can always wait years to buy for 300/1, but that usually do not happen. (Good luck trying to force ppl to sell well bellow the price)

No, that I know I got right; 300:1 is the going rate on PC NA. I’m going by what everyone in my trading guild sells for as well as nearly every WTS I’ve seen in zone. With patience I have found lower, but usually in limited quantity. WCE and other sources are middlemen (or the equivalent I assume) so of course you’re going to pay a premium.

We go by TCE prices and not your guild... Its the price tag used for WCE as well (they set the rate based on TCE). Every single deal on overland usually tends to follow the same rule (TCE rate) Well, if you don't want to get scammed, that's it.

Weird that PC is so high.
100:1 on Xbox. Occasionally you can sell for 125:1 if someone is despirate

PC is higher because people have more gold. It is really easy to make money with add-ons.
