SBQ Retirements

All this outrage over pixels.

June 29, 2014, 4:10 am by

Loved these and hope there will be more limited sets! =D It makes it more fun to restock.

June 28, 2014, 9:30 pm by

Darrrrrrn. I never got the grim dark corset and skirt T-T

June 28, 2014, 8:07 pm by

This were limited edition and when released said they're retire in a few months!

Retired SBQ and trunks go into the gift of fashions past!

June 28, 2014, 7:54 pm by

Wow, that was sudden. There are definitely other sets in there that are older and should be retired first...

June 28, 2014, 7:23 pm by

thanks for letting us know... will these perhaps ever make it to the bag of fashion past?

June 28, 2014, 6:40 pm by

Guys, a few months most of the time means THREE months. Couple usually signifies two, few usually signifies three.
So they missed a warning. No need to come down on them like they started world war 3. Damn.

June 28, 2014, 4:38 pm by

Seriously? WHY?! :( It was always so hard to find those items stocked in subeautique!

June 28, 2014, 4:24 pm by

I am really bummed considering I only got one piece that I wanted from the Lady Grimdark set. I am very disappointed.

June 28, 2014, 3:35 pm by

I actually like that there wasn't a warning... true, I didn't get most the things I wanted, but I feel like its more exciting this way...

June 28, 2014, 3:14 pm by

NOOOOooooooouuuuuu! Okay, that's a little early, as they were hardly ever stocked in Subeautique.

June 28, 2014, 2:25 pm by

I wasn't really that upset but being told not to complain is now compelling me to complain more

June 28, 2014, 1:56 pm by

Wahhhhhhhh. Tried so hard but I haven't gotten enough invites lately. Ah well. Loved the sets!

June 28, 2014, 1:40 pm by

i'm only missing one item, but i still would've liked 24 hours' notice at least :/ overall i didn't really love the whole limited edition idea. unnecessary stress.

June 28, 2014, 11:17 am by

I do agree with that even if we knew they were limited, it would have been nice to maybe get a actual notice. That wasnt so open ended as 'a few months it will retire' Im not mad, its my own fault I didnt get the last few I needed. But still a bit bummed. There were a few Id have really loved to grab :U

June 28, 2014, 10:52 am by

So glad I made the effort to get those sets! I was honestly surprised that they lasted as long as they did! For those complaining that they never saw the items should've joined the ping group. They ping when the shop restocks. (although subscribing to the thread is better these days with the stupid ping issues)

June 28, 2014, 10:11 am by

I don't remember even seeing any of those items in the shop even though I checked quite often. Two more lines that I won't be able to complete.

June 28, 2014, 10:08 am by

People need to stop complaining. They were limited. Obviously not everyone was going to finish them.
I actually thought they were going to retire them a while back, but they didn't.

June 28, 2014, 9:51 am by

As a new player I didn't even know about something like limited lines. I should have read old news. Atleast I got both long hairdos, which are both one of my favorites wigs. Now the items are so expensive, I wish I have been online at midnight so I could have grabbed them still at the lowest price. But I can't change that now, so moving on. <:

June 28, 2014, 9:27 am by

Weeeelllllll, looks like I won't finish the Grimdark collection after all. I didn't even get any of the female lines, I only ever saw the male in the shop. :/

June 28, 2014, 9:16 am by

Thanks for the surprise retirement, most of the subq items in my shop sold out :D

I got all the items. Lately they have been sitting untouched in the subeatique for many restocks.

June 28, 2014, 8:58 am by

please, no more limited lines in the future.

June 28, 2014, 8:13 am by

I did get all the items from them what I wanted/needed, so I am ok with this :P

June 28, 2014, 8:03 am by

Don't remember ever seeing these sets before...

June 28, 2014, 6:54 am by

Yaaay, got all my stuff man. Played safe.

June 28, 2014, 6:09 am by

I missed so much Grimdark stuff...

June 28, 2014, 5:17 am by

No announcement? Poor show, Subeta. Pathetic, even. "A few months" implied a more specific announcement at a later date. I fail to see how neglecting to give us even a week's notice benefited anyone.

June 28, 2014, 5:16 am by

Well, this is sudden. I barely saw ANY of these lines restock and had to rely on resellers (and a special gift from a friend!) to get the very little bits I have.

June 28, 2014, 5:15 am by

No complain here, just thanks for the profit I was able to make. Lucky for once.

June 28, 2014, 5:09 am by

I know that these were limited edition sets, but there were really a lot of pieces to them. So in my opinion, this was too short a window. Disappointed that we didn't get a warning/reminder that they were retiring soon (especially with the vague retiring in a few months deadline, which could mean anything.)

June 28, 2014, 4:52 am by

Lmao epic retiring here!

June 28, 2014, 4:42 am by

There are 5 sets older than that still restocking, it'll be a while.

June 28, 2014, 4:29 am by

Sigh. And yet Kumos lives on.

June 28, 2014, 4:06 am by

Aww no, I still miss the GreaseMonkey Hair :o Oh well, time to stalk the forums for that too xD

Would have liked an announcement with a litte warning as well, just to well yeah, be in the mood. This was quite sudden.

June 28, 2014, 3:14 am by

Gorgeous lines though. More pleasee!

June 28, 2014, 3:13 am by

I might be the only one but I thought they lasted /too/ long.

June 28, 2014, 3:09 am by

I know these were supposed to be "limited edition" but the "limited edition" sets from last year (the masq sets like sougara yun, mimi moe lockwell, etc) were legit in the subeautique for over a year....so...I did not expect this. I'm still missing three items from these sets.

June 28, 2014, 2:53 am by

I knew this had to be coming, especially since there had been such emphasis put on the fact that Greasemonkey and Grimdark would be a short-lived SubQ line. Glad I grabbed what I wanted when I did, even if I didn't complete the sets. :D

Bring on MORE Grimdark and Greasemonkey-like goodies please!!!

June 28, 2014, 2:25 am by

Ugh... As much as I tried to RS the pieces I wanted, don't think I got any of them.

June 28, 2014, 1:53 am by

the only pieces i REALLY wanted that i missed were the greasemonkey â€¦grease (?), and the grimdark lady hair

but though i knew they were limited edition, 'a few months' is very vague as has been previously mentioned. a little warning wouldve been nice

June 28, 2014, 1:43 am by

Even though I stalked SBQ and was lucky to catch all the items that retired today, and that we knew we would have a "few" months to catch these items, it would of been nice to say, a week or two ago that these lines would be retiring. Maybe they will come out for another masquerade event. One never knows ...

June 28, 2014, 1:31 am by

Guys I know you work hard, but would it really be that hard to be like "You have a week/month left to grab x x and x!!!" Like no offense but I wasn't HERE three months ago so I did NOT get that announcement, nor did I know which sets were the oldest and I was really trying hard to collect all the grimdark lady pieces. :/

June 28, 2014, 1:23 am by

Wwwwwhaaaaaaaaat

June 28, 2014, 1:10 am by

Oh poop, there were some nice items there.. oh well :c

June 28, 2014, 1:01 am by

AHHHH! lol v_v supersadface ^

June 28, 2014, 12:51 am by

dies I know they were only going to be around for a few months, but I didn't finish any of them. I only got a few Greasemonkey and parts of both Grimdarks, though I only need two Gentleman. A nice warning would have been nice, not that I had seen half of these pieces anyway.

June 28, 2014, 12:43 am by

That's too bad. :( I didn't get all the pieces I wanted. Wish there was a warning before the retirement.

June 28, 2014, 12:27 am by

Err... Left a word out... "re-added temporarily " (Not that it matters... I just hate when I do that.)

June 28, 2014, 12:23 am by

I am not upset by the retirements because I figured it would happen soon. However, I really think there should have been an announcement. The original News post was vague about the exact time of retirement, which is probably a good thing; giving people a heads up would have been helpful and it couldn't have hurt anything really. (Just temporary crowding of the SBQ, temporary increase SBQ invite costs, and earlier rise in the cost of items from the set...) I doubt them being re-added to the SBQ but if there are ever any more limited editions added to the SBQ, I do hope the staff realizes they need to give a retirement warning just like they do with all the rest of the sets in the SBQ.

June 28, 2014, 12:22 am by

That was rather sudden as that set was not that old. Oh well, thanks for the notice. I need so many items from those sets.
