DarkkChaos Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 They can't all be big winners... If you don't like the returns, don't buy the packs. Isn't that the point... This thread is like me saying "I bought a lottery ticket and DIDN'T win the jackpot....that's b/s"!!! These packs are a gamble, that's the point of them....welcome to the game!

DarkkChaos Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 And lets be honest if you ran your dailies for a week you could buy anything out of those packs on the gtn. I can clear a million credits a day....and never step foot off the fleet. Why anyone pays REAL money...on packs...at the "hope" of getting a ultra-rare (and valuable) item, is beyond me. The market is quite simple - if you see something you want out of those packs.....wait a week or two - don't buy right away off the GTN, then buy. The market always get's flooded with these "NEW" items..........snap, some of those flying pets were going for 4 million yesterday, today - they are below 900k! Prices drop fast...........buying the packs for an item you want, is a waste...of money and credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zataos Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 People that buy these packs have no one to blame but themselves, the more you waste money on them the more you screw the rest of the community by encouraging BW to focus more on packs and the CM.

Asuka Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 So I opened a Blockade runner cartel pack and the first 'rare' item .... was a credit boost, delivering precisely 60k credits. I had no idea that the main items in packs could be so utterly crappy - 60k is useless to a lvl 50. The other three I'd bought at least had gear in them. The second 'rare' item was a republic banner. Which sell for about 1,000c on my server. Is this the crapest cartel pack ever? Or does anyone have a tale of one that delivered even more disappointment? That's why it's called gambling . You want to know what crappy is? Try ball toss, 1 banner, 1 comp gift and mats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dscount Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 (edited) Yup.. I even logged a ticket thinking something was hosed. 1- Imperial Banner (Toy)10- Subelectronic Data Modules (Blue Matls)1- Aratech Reconstruction Toolkit (Blue Level 5 Gift)1- Minor Warzone Experience Boost (Consumable)1- Republic Banner (Toy) Apparently the Banner is considered a "RARE" item. That sells for 250 credits. Needless to say that as the last pack of like three that I've opened or will waste my credits or coins.
