the best thing about these threads is that people forget that these items don't have to come back, they were seasonal exclusives, people complained, SE responded, then people complain again, the store is completely optional, dont like it? the gil option is there. (which im pretty sure is kept as is to marketable on purpose, it was done with the xmas trees etc also.) and if you dont like the gil option/mog station, then i guess there's always acceptance?
