Gem Sales

BB - a thought about gem sales. I believe you would make more money by announcing 24 hours in advance gem sales. Not too much time to discourage current gem buying, but enough time to prepare.

Think about this: more people would be sure to jump on the game knowing ahead of time that there will be a gem sale to take advantage; people who have to take time to get the money (i.e. no credit cards) would have time to take advantage of the sale as well. All these people would be more willing to spend more money, than to wait for a sale they might miss. It would also create better warm-fuzzies between TSO and players.

Just a thought for BB to consider for the future.

Also...make the sale on a Saturday! Most people get paid on Fridays. Having one day sales mid-week is just counter intuitive. All retail stores know that sales jump on weekends.

I've been trying to buy gems for a few weeks. Sale won't go through. Paypal rejects and seller rejects credit card. Everyone says its not them. Can't a guy buy gems? This happen to anyone else and if so, how did you resolve it?
