The only "limited edition" item I bought was the Dro'm-athra senche, but I was dead set on having it
Just noting the new lizard thing and infernal adder on crown store and they are 4 days only. Would this 'limited' time make you purchase an item. Even if its not on your initial 'wish list'

I didn't vote because there was no option for: I am easily pressured into buying something I don't need or want when someone tells me I can only buy it for five more days.
Interesting results and thanks to everyone that voted so far.
I must admit I didn’t expect the result to be so conclusive, I thought there must be more people that would be swayed into limited edition/limited time items.
Given the result, surely this is an indicator to ZEN that limited time editions don’t attract people and the question is asked ‘why not just design and leave it on there?’ People change toons and new players join…..

I don't understand the desire on ZOS' part to NOT have a well stocked store with lots of choices. I'd like to see the marketing research that proves this makes more money than a well stocked store that does occasional sales of specific items.
I don't buy things just because they're limited edition. I've been online numerous times when a limited-time mount or pet was on sale and haven't gotten it because I didn't like it.
I bought both the Kagouti mount and the Infernal Adder, but it had nothing to do with them being limited time offers. I happen to think both of them suit my Shadowscale Argonian assassin very nicely.Just noting the new lizard thing and infernal adder on crown store and they are 4 days only.

The one thing that may get me to buy something that I wouldn't have otherwise bought is if an item is going to be removed from the crown store shortly, and is going on sale at a discount before it goes away. In that case, though, I'll only be buying it if it's worth it to me at the reduced price (and often I'll decide that I don't want it even at a reduced price), so it's about the price aspect, not about the "this is going away soon" aspect.
Im the same on this. I bought more crowns as they half price on PS4 even though I already had enough and nothing to spend them on that I liked. It comes down to pricing for me. If its a bargain i'll buy it.
