That just says that the earring is modeled after a moogle, you can enter the item code into your Square-Enix account after ARR goes on sale, and you can use the earring on any job on any character. Seems to just be a vanity item.

I want those earrings, but not for $450 x_x

Don't even bother getting the code. Dunno why but the codes are region specific... I bought 3 damn FFXIII (JP) for me, my bro, my mom and was going to use 2 of the codes for my character and my wifes, 3rd for my bro or mom if they wanted to play FFXIV. Bought the JP version since I play 99% of my games in Japanese and the FFXIV in-game item codes didn't work due to region specific code. Complained through customer service but they didn't respond. Posted it on forums when it first opened up and got no response. It's really ridiculous making these codes region specific... I posted on the JP side not too long ago as well saying for 2.0 they better get rid of that region specific code crap since it's totally not fair...

Please do try keep that thread active then, because it is really quite upsetting ^^;;;

agreed it seems kinda silly to have things region specific it's like they're trying to segregate the players which makes no sense at all due to it being an online game. Unless they're doing it for a specific reason as for like average player base and want to know how many people in what regions play this game.... then that I can understand but the codes shouldn't be like that

Might be because they simply do not have legal backing to actually SELL in-game material in certain countries.
That is a pretty plausible explanation.

Could be but what was sad is NA version of the game came with the exact same in-game item but just because I bought the JP FFXIII I couldn't use the code... how silly is that?

Was planning to buy JP FFXIV but bought 2x Collectors Edition NA version since it was cheaper and during beta/alpha learned you can change locale language to Japanese through config so I can play in JP with NA version buuuuuuuuut you can't use in-game item codes since those are region specific...

On top of that JP square-enix account doesn't take credit cards outside of Japan + with current exchange rate you would be paying a lot more for same service... so even if I bought JP FFXIV I would of ended up not being able to play it at all.
