Black Fredas 2021 (Black Friday Crown Store Discounts)

I have not yet seen an ESO News article for the upcoming Black Fredas (Black Friday) crown store sales event; but, I hope for the return of discounts on assistants, especially Baron Jangleplume (Banker) and Peddler of Prizes (Merchant). It would probably be a stretch to see Ghrasharog (the new Armory Assistant) on sale this early; but, I can hope!

Take our money, ZOS! :D

Feel free to comment on what you would like to see featured for Black Fredas later this year. :)

    This one will pay good money for a matte version of the Werewolf Hunter Hat. Shiny is not a good look for everyone.

    Usually announced on the day or very close to it. Specifically a bundle every year main sale item. Fingers crossed few new items too.

    Black Fredas (Black Friday) is typically the Friday after American Thanksgiving, so Nov 26th, or thereabouts.

    Last Crown sale was in August. Next will probably be late December. I don’t recall Crowns being on sale for Black Fredas the past two years (since I’ve been playing).

    Sometimes I find that the common dyes at the outfit stations will remove the shiny. Have you tried that?

    Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. And I would have loved a Crown pack sale now, while the Princely Dawnlight Palace is for sale again. Guess if I really want it, I'll have to buy a pack at regular prices. <heavy sigh>

    Would buy crowns on sale
    The Lord Jesus Christ saved me from sin and darkness. His love has transformed me so that I am a new creature in Him. May you find Him too, and experience His richness and goodness!

    I would be pretty pleased if at least a couple of notable homes were on sale. I think it was either last year or the year before that I snagged Princely Dawnlight Palace for a decent price. I haven't been tempted to use my ESO+ crowns for too much since then, so I've got a good stash ready to go.

    Extremely disappointing, to say the least.

    That Black Fredas Bundle might be interesting if the kagouti doesn’t look like it’s got a bad case of mildew.

    That is camouflage. Chances are you will lose him the first time you dismount out in the wilds, anyway.

    I doubt I'll buy the bundle this year - don't think I want the kagouti just to get the riding lessons and xp scrolls. What I WANT is a sale on crowns....

    @Elsonso since some of the pets have disappeared for several days (only returned recently), this one won’t be surprised if the mounts also do a runner.

    As much as I would like that too, it is likely way too early for a discount on those items you mentioned. Zo$ usually waits an entire year to discount limited-time stuff -if they discount stuff at all - but one can always hope.

    Bundle is up. You get a mount and 30 crown store riding lessons for 1900 crowns. I'm not going to bother listing the other stuff, it doesn't warrant mentioning.

    I don't care about the mount but I just made a new toon and was thinking about buying some speed and stamina training, don't care about capacity.... so I'd essentially be getting 2000 crowns worth of stuff I kinda want for 1900 crowns.

    I'll pass.
