XD I love the collection thing. It makes me want to buy DPs because I know I'm not gonna get screwed.
Hm, I didn't think about it that way Jessyta & Carol. :o. Now I'm even more conflicted on the issue, bahah. I just want the old way back, tbh. :(
Honestly, I was THRILLED when they implemented it. I normally buy DPs with cash, but they're only 3m normally anyway, so still not very expensive. It's so much better to get to PICK what you want, and then not curse when you get the 200k minion FOUR TIMES IN A ROW :K
Lysseh - You need to shop around. For at least a couple days after April ended, there were 2 gladelings for 4m in the shops. I managed to buy 5 unopened April Collections for less than 4m for my gallery as well.
I wasn't thrilled about the change,, but it certainly makes things easier for me.
I personally love this new system, but I guess that's because I only buy Dps/collections/WHATEVER for the wearables. Some of the Dp wearables (when we couldn't choose) are insanely priced right now, but the new system allows for more stability because it seems as there would be more wearables in circulation ( if people in fact do choose wearables vs. other items more often).
Yeah, those same ones. Ergh :K I was so mad, I was just giving them away in the DC as I got them :P
I'd rather spend my $5 a month on stuff that I really WANT, than what I might get from the luck of the draw.
And then again.. today I bought my friend something from her wishlist for her birthday.. it was an old DP, and it was 300k. I think that's kind of crazy, DPs shouldn't be that low, IMO.
The users that are spending money now on CSC for the collections now does not compete with the users that spend tons to get one single item they want from DP. As said, there is less money coming in but benefits the users of Subeta. I do like the fact that DPs were a gamble, though.
