    So @ZOS_GinaBruno ... maybe you'd let the powers that be know it would be wise to surprise us all with a Cyber Monday sale on crowns after all? We're okay if they pretend that was the plan all along. ;)

    Ain't nobody gonna have any money left by then. lol
    I've been muted since November 2017 because of the whiny crybabies on this forum and the liberal ZOS employees coddling them.

    And somehow you guys still don't even have it to where we can buy additional months of ESO Plus at a discount on Xbox and get Crowns that way either. Xbox players have to pay an additional $24/year for ESO Plus above PC and PS4 players because the 1 month $14.99 option is all that's in the Xbox Store compared to the discounted 6 month option on PS4 and PC.

    I think this was explained by them. Microsoft did not want to offer anything but the single month subscription.

    That bundle is a joke. Such a bummer. Was excited to pick up all the mundus stones for a guild hall. It can wait.

    Thank you for the discount on the Morrowind collectors edition upgrade. Myself and my boyfriend purchased it yesterday. I had a sentimental moment at memories of my days in the old Morrowind game. Vivec took me way back. Love it. Love it. Love it. Any chance of an Oblivion chapter at some point?

    A Christmas/New Life crown sale would be nice.

    @ZOS_JessicaFolsom and @ZOS_GinaBruno - Some of these people are being incredibly dramatic about ZOS not offering a crown sale. As someone who also does a bit of marketing, I get it: discounts that become expected are not good in the long run.

    That said, this bundle is... underwhelming, to say the least. Like, I'd love to spend some money on some neat Black Friday deals. But I can literally make equivalent or better consumables in most cases, and I don't really need a new mount, especially since you all just gave a whole bunch of people free mounts. The riding lessons are cool, but that's more or less the only thing in this bundle that IS cool, and even then, it's only 2/3 of the upgrade trees.

    So, feedback from some random guy on the internet, if you're interested in passing it along to the right people? If ZOS isn't going to offer a crown sale, that's fine, but next time it's probably worth offering a more substantive Black Friday bundle. Because like I said before, I'd happily spend extra money on ESO this Friday... if there was anything in particular for me to spend my money on. And clearly I'm not alone. A whole lot of missed sales opportunities, here.

    Absolutely this. Without a crown sale there needed to be a LOT of other sales or perhaps even several different Black Fredas Bundles. A house sale would have been great.

    One more update on the ESO Store: The sale for ESO and Morrowind on PC will be live around 1pm EST (not 11am EST.)

    We don't have a Crown Pack sale as part of our Black Friday offerings this year.

    Which leaves me quite a little disappointed.

    The real problem to me are the latest prices in crown store. For the costs in money per crown without rebates, they are completely exaggerated. I bought 2 mounts for 4k and 4.5k. That would be 25 Euro per mount. Lately a costume for 2k crowns = 12 Euro, a house for 14k = 90 Euro. As I really hope these prices are calculated with rebated crowns, please bring those rebates more frequently.

    On black friday, I intended to buy that dwemer gazebo and 3 imperial columns for my house which sell at 1.3k and 3x400k crowns, which would be 15 Euro without crown rebate. I would have to be pretty stupid to do so.

    In the end all I can say is: No, thank you, not this time. I hope there will be another crown rebate or I'll just wait until I prolong my subscription in march. The current black friday bundle comes at a reasonable price as it contains a mount, but the "original" price of more than 8k crowns (50 Euro) again is a bad joke. Your marketing section might think that crowns hide the real price, but it doesn't to all of us!

    When you compare the Black Fredas bundle with the 500g starter pack deal from a few weeks ago - saddest Black Fredas ever. Starter pack had all the same consumables, plus crown repairs kits and twice as many potions. The bear instead of horse isn't worth the extra 1400 crowns IMO.

    Again, just my opinion. I was hoping for a crown sale as well. Oh well.

    Not sure how that would work since most of the areas from Oblivion are already ingame.

    Expectable discounts!?... Well, isn't that just what the wohle Black Friday sale thing is all about? In my understanding discounts are never a bad thing regarding sales, as long as they're not dis'mis'counted!...

    Hi, for some reason the European PS4 Black Friday special for upgrading to Morrowind does not start until Tuesday, 28-11-2017...

    However, the Free Nix mount give-away ends on Sunday 26-11-2017?

    Does this mean if we live in England / Europe and wait for the PS4 Black Friday Morrowind Upgrade special price that is already available in some other regions and on PC to start next week on Tuesday, we will miss out on the free Nix Mount event for our PS4 accounts?

    I hope this isn't the case as our family has 2 x PC ESO accounts that we have already upgraded to Morrowind and 2 x PS4 accounts that we were going to upgrade during the Black Friday sale, but plan to wait for the European PS4 sale to start next Tuesday, two days after the Nix giveaway event ends?

    Please clarify what is happening for those waiting for the European PS4 Black Tuesday deals relative to the Nix Mount?

    Thanks and have fun out there.

    We could try to use metrics. Theory would be that ZOS is monitoring internet traffic, clicks etc. If we all check the crown packs but then closing the windows not buying anything ... who knows, worth a try in my opinion! :D
