    Get real jobs and stop being so cheap people. If you like a product, you should want to support the company that makes it. I don't know why so many people feel the need to be in constant opposition to SE when they just pumped out an expansion for us that we've been asking for for years, and are generally giving us the things we ask for now. I'm also entertained by how people become lawyers whenever it's convenient and we're all of a sudden "entitled" to a price, mostly because they want the price, and they wouldn't be so quick to say anything if the price was advertised too high. If anything digitalriver was probably in breach of their minimum advertised pricing agreement when they made the error and SE didn't authorize anything of the sort. You're about as entitled to that price as you are your welfare check I suppose. Gooooooo 'Merica!

    Lol way to make a really stupid post about poor people. Ever hear the one about a fool and his money? You see... Smart people don't buy stupid crap just because they can afford it. In this case, people are more or less forced to purchase a crappy expansion because not doing so would have a huge negative impact on the game that they already paid for (and continue to pay for every month). There is no discounted monthly fee for people who don't buy the expansions. They pay the same price as people who have the expansions. I could buy thousands of copies at $40 if I felt like it, but that would be stupid when the expansion is probably not even worth $20 yet.

    TLDR; if you think people are being cheap then feel free to purchase and distribute copies to the needy mister money bags.

    Seriously, your decision whether or not you actually pay $40 for this will speak your opinion far louder than posting gripes here.
    I have both a wallet and a keyboard. I can post my gripes on here and speak with my wallet. As was already mentioned, there are a million reasons why a person might choose not to buy this expansion and none of them are expressed by simply not buying it. More important is the fact that speaking with your wallet inevitably has a negative effect on the game and I don't want to ruin the game out of spite. I want the game to actually be worth $39.99 on top of the dues I already pay.

    i am not sure some people know the meaning of the word mistake... whether the person who updated the page was confused between the collectors edition with abyssea and the new one that isnt out yet, or simply just stupidly put the 19.99 there and crossed out the 29.99, doesnt matter. it was a mistake.

    And the price there isnt what i would call "Advertised" price. advertised means there was ads <--- [see ads=advertisements] whether on TV, newspapers, or an Ad on a webpage. Did you click a banner ad that said now 19.99?! or did you try to buy it saw the price that was a mistake and assume that it was intended and thusly advertised and thusly locks SE into offerin this price? From the sounds of the whole thing the price wasnt 19.99 very long either before it was fixed.

    Why would anyone assume it was less than just the expansion alone cost anyway?

    Why does the Abyssea Ultimate Collection cost the same amount as a single expansion or add-on when it contains all 4 expansions as well all 6 add-ons and the original game itself? Prices do not always make sense.
