Guilds And Glory Pack FAKE sale item

Buyer beware… this item might say it is on sale, but for most it will be full price at 4000 crowns (instead of the advertised 2000). This is due to the same old issue of owning part of the bundle already… imperial City dlc (which is a free DLC, but now looks like it could almost be a trap to costing you more in the long run).
Even gifting this item to a person who has already taken advantage of claiming the always free Imperial City DLC will cost the gifted 4000 crowns and they may not even notice it. I believe this seemingly entrapment of a sale item goes against the laws of Fair Trading and Trading Standards in many countries that Zenimax are doing business in with regards to sale items. Even if it doesn’t, it appears to be unscrupulous behaviour.
Can I get someone to officially state why this item is behaving this way? At this juncture, just removing the Imperial City item from the bundle could have solved the problem from 5 years ago, and wouldn’t be doing this today at this stage… and that’s why it appears intentionally exploitative.

✭✭✭✭✭ZOS knows that the owning Imperial City free dlc causes issues with the Guilds and Glory bundle, and for whatever reason hasn't fixed it yet.

The issue in that original thread that gifting was not possible at all. Now, when you try to gift to an account that partially owns it, you get a message warning you that they own part of it and that you'll still pay the listed price. So the issue in that original thread has been fixed.
What the OP is complaining about is that the price has gone up from 2K to 4K, but I did not encounter such an issue when I bought this for my alt account using my main account's crowns.Edited by code65536 on August 30, 2021 10:25PMNightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

Hmm, maybe it's a console issue? I did it on PC, and had no problems.Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

✭I'm not sure what happened to the first gift, and why it cost 4,000 crowns... but seems now a fix might have been implimented, last sale was 2000 crowns. But I've spoken to several people now that got charged the 4000 crowns too.
I guess there is more at play in this one.0
