I am sure this has been suggested/requested many times by now, but is there any chance that at some near future point we can have the ability to buy items on the crown store for friends and have them aquire them?

    You're in luck then! This has been addressed and answered before. Here's a c&p (edited by me to spell Gina's name correctly) from a thread posted in December:

    "• Hi all, [From Gina]

    Here are some steps to help you submit a Support ticket to take advantage of this program. If you have questions about the program, you can ask them in your Support ticket.
    1. First visit our Support portal here: https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/
    2. Log into your account (you must do this step, or the next steps will not work)
    3. Click on the Web Assistant on the right side of the page
    4. Choose any Platform
    5. Select In-Game Support, then Item Issue, then Crown Store Purchase
    6. In your ticket description, please mention the Crown Store item you are interested in purchasing. Please note: We can only assist with items that are live in the Crown Store. If the item is a gift for another player, please provide the recipient's UserID/Gamertag/PSN ID, or the email address associated with their game account.
    7. Then select "Email Response" and you will get a confirmation message that your ticket has been submitted, along with your ticket number.
    8. We usually answer tickets within 24 to 72 hours."

    Hope this helps :)

    I'm hopeful that the current, overly complicated, method is a precursor to a proper in-game gifting option.

    Even if ZOS still want customer support to approve each gift so it can't be used for trading as some people have suggested, it would be nice if there was a button in the crown store to gift an item to another player. Click the button, put in the name of the person you want to gift it to and the rest happens automatically.

    Even if 'behind the scenes' it's the same - so it sends a ticket off and someone at customer support checks it out and approves the gift - it would make it so much easier and encourage more people to use it. I doubt many people who don't visit the forum often (which is most players) even know gifting is an option.

    I would love to be able to gift Crowns instead of items, but having a "gift" button in the store would make birthday shopping a LOT easier.

    Also if more things were available in the store instead of crates. There are older mounts both the husband and I want...but they're only in crates now, and we don't have enough money for ZOS to let us buy them...
