Price Doubled!


Recommended Posts

Gang, wtf is going on - I put the av8b into my basket earlier today at the sale price, but didn’t checkout at that point. I’ve just gone into the cart and the price has doubled!

 

I thought the sale was on until the end of today! Is there any appeal to ED about things like this does anyone know?

 

Cheers

Rick

That's the risk of waiting to the last minute of a sale before deciding on a plane :)

If I buy it on Steam though, doesn’t that mean I can only use it via Steam and not my standalone download of DCS outside of Steam?

 

Steam Purchases cannot be used on e-shop version, and vice versa

That's indeed the case with all new modules, so I'd recommend not buying there now.

Thanks mate, well, lesson learned for next time I suppose. I’m certainly not buying it on Steam as it will restrict me like you say.

I did genuinely believe that the sale was on until the end of today though. Maybe something for ED to make clearer in future sales if there will be time cutoffs on the dates they state the sale is running.

 

Thanks again, looks like I’m keeping my money for now.

 

Cheers

I attempted completion longer than 1.5 hours ago though.

Also, I personally have not known online sales that finish at end of business day in whatever country the developer is in, normally it is the physical end of day ie 2359 hours.

 

Thanks anyway for the information about Moscow.

How can the changes be made at midnight when no one is at work? Just a thought.

 

But really, the moral of the story is, buy the day before the last day of a sale, and there is no quibble about when the sale ends. :music_whistling: :music_whistling: After all, the end of the month has come and gone, and that ought to give salaried customers every opportunity to sneak one past the wife.

 

 

Seriously though, I feel for anyone who misses out this way.

My point exactly!

Anyway, it’s done now and ED won’t help out with it so I will hang on to my money until the next sale and get it then, as long as there’s a decent discount. If there isn’t then I won’t, simple!
