This Gem Sale is just sad

20% off, no not even that, its 20% more gems so still spending same amount money. Either way 20% is barely considered a sale. What happened to the 50% sales we used to get? I've read that Europe still gets the 50% sales, at least 2 since June as I understand it. Many more people will buy the gems when there is a good sale rather than this sad 20% stuff we have been getting. I know I haven't and won't buy gems until the sale is better than it is now. The last time I believe I bought was the last 50% sale and that was so long ago, I don't remember when even. Its simple, better sale = more people buying, more money in long run for Blue Byte. You aren't actually loosing anything. Gems are a product you have to spend money to create. Its pixels that cost nothing to produce. I had high hopes we'd have a good sale with the start of the Halloween event. But not this.

I'd buy $50 right now if the gem same was 50%

I'm bummed its only a 20% :( :( :(

I agree.

Europe just got 100% extra gems sale last month... but on the other hand their servers work fine...so it all evens out

yep, I'm not buying gems again until its at least 50%

Just go here and it should take your mind off it.

I agree with the OP here.. 50% or I will never buy gems again... 100% would be awesome.. I would spend a couple hundred bucks if that was the case :D

wait i'm not sharing my success story

You guys buy gems?

sure, we have big boy jobs and can spend our $ on pixels if we want, haha

i know that i would spend a lot more if the gems were cheaper! Great incentive to spend extra when prices are great!

My biggest beef is they are running a 50% sale on the European servers. When it is a digital distribution I find it in bad taste that they would have different percentage for the sale items.

Sure different price points based on currency would be fair (Europeans are getting hosed a bit) but to not have similar sales in an age of information is in poor taste:(

This will have to be my last gem purchase.

im with yall, no way will i buy more untill a min of 50% sale is open for us here.... the Zeus server deserves something after all the letdowns we have faced, and like Arcain said, it would be MORE MONEY to blue byte..... us buying at sale, or not buying at all....

it will come around soon im sure prolly X-mas or turkey day one of the two

That is what i have thought for all the last few events and holidays. But nothing. Its been so long now that its like they don't even want to give us a good sale. Makes me wonder the reasons. My theory is either they don't need too bc enough people are buying at regular prices or 20% sales, or they just don't care about players on the American server. Goes back to having incredible sales on the European server, but nothing here.

Wish they would have had those kind of sales instead I just dropped a $20 card on the 20% extra deal.
