I think the Newsletter needs a better writer...

On the announcement about the sale the wording is

"Finally, during the April Sale period, we’re also putting Crown Packs on sale with the following discounts:"

right above it says the sale runs until the 15th - even on PC

"The April Sale will run between different time periods, based on your platform:

Xbox One
Standard Edition—March 31 until April 15
Elsweyr Chapter—April 3 until April 15
PlayStation®4
Standard Edition—April 1 until April 15
Elsweyr Chapter—April 1 until April 15
PC/Mac
Standard Edition—March 31 until April 15
Elsweyr Chapter—March 31 until April 15"

then at the end it says this

"Check out what is currently available in the Crown Store on our website. These major savings are available only on the following dates:

Xbox One—April 1 until April 7
PlayStation®4—April 1 until April 15
PC/Mac—March 31 until April 6"

Maybe they can get someone with better more specific wording to write the news updates because this is super confusing and as per the forums there was a TON of people who wanted to purchase crowns but couldn't prior to the 6th.

Thank you

    I agree completely. I was just looking for this on the weekend, and read exactly what arika posted, so I assumed the sale would last until the 15th...since you know, that's what it says... Seriously ZOS, you need to extend this sale because this is some terrible communication.

    Like many people, I had the date of the sales wrong. . . I was convinced that it was until April 15 (really unclear in the article); I was able to buy a few crowns, but I intended to buy others today. . . we're going to wait for the month of august . . .

    I too misunderstood the timing of the sale. I had rejoined last week due to lack of information about The New World from Amazon, and found myself enjoying the game. I decided to buy the full game through Elsweyr (to get Morrowind as well) , and signed up for 3 months of plus. After reading about the banker and how it could be used with the lazy writ crafter addon, I thought I should get some crowns in case they put the banker on sale later. Oh, well, was going to get the max crowns for 40% off, but guess not. Still having fun, but will wait before giving more money.

    I agree. I just went to buy more crowns and was surprised to learn they are no longer on sale, after reading the sale page.

    C'mon, ZOS, throw us a bone and leave them on sale until at least the 15th.

    Totally agree, the article makes it sound like crowns would be on sale until April 15th. I submitted a ticket, they can either offer me the crowns at the sale price or I just won't buy them.
