I cant help you see the problem with that..
    Even if that were the case.. What about the aetheryte earring? it's older. And even then.. I wouldnt want to see that become a common loot goody-bag on a cash shop.
    I can see the point about the Legacy tattoo, but not the earrings. If you’re all caught up, but found the game later than others, that earring is essentially a glamour item and a damn nice one at that.

    Its function is essentially worthless if you’re already over 80, and it’s not an “earned” reward, like Savage gear or Ultimate weapons. You could buy the pre-order back then, and you could buy this now. It was a real money item to begin with, so nothing is really different in terms of how it’s acquired. It’s not some sort of “I’ve been here longer” status symbol!

    For the record, I have it, along with the ShB and DT earrings, and I’m glad others will get to have it. I don’t even know what the previous earrings looked like but I’d love to see those too. Along with the other old stuff you can’t get anymore, like the Dalamud minion or the Shiva emote. If you can’t buy the original thing they’re attached to anymore, I do think you should have a way to purchase separately. Definitely make it a little higher priced than a normal minion or emote, but put it out there. They’re still going to sell new statues when they come out, because that’s a hobby for some people. From a business standpoint, they’d make more money offering the in-game rewards separately than counting on a large number of players being willing to fork out hundreds for a statue.
