About the EU campaign for maid outfit and fat chocobo

I don't get why everyone keeps repeating this. Yes, I'm sure some people abused the pre-order trick, but I highly doubt the majority of people did. The promotion required gamers to purchase game-related items - I doubt it was difficult for people to find something they actually wanted to buy that qualified.

Oh, I don't doubt that either. That price quote was more because NA players likely were already buying stuff from Amazon, thus the promotion was free for them. It wouldn't be fair to now charge EU players $12 for a mount the rest of us got for nothing, but I appreciate they can't just give them away. So a small price for EU seems like the best solution.

I probably misunderstood you but you say $12 while the 3 magazines we have to buy in order to get the mount are 27E = +-$30.

You did. I said that should be the price if they simply put them on the MogStation. Maybe a little more. Basically, I'm saying cut out the whole magazine entirely because it's not only a rip off compared to JP/NA, but I doubt anyone even wants it.

Oh, sorry! I misunderstood the intent D: It is totally bogus that NA/JP could buy things of their choosing and get the item where as EU is forced into 3 magazine purchases that they probably don't want (over the span of 3 months), and then make them submit further proof after the fact... I really don't know how they could think this was a reasonable offer.
