You brought up fairness, and my point was the game is not fair to everyone. The example I put forward said MAYBE. Not necessarily meaning my situation. A quick look at my Lodestone page will show that I have put some time into the game. MAYBE this person has weekends and Holidays off. MAYBE this person picks up dinner on the way home, freeing up more time to play. MAYBE this person doesn't want use this extra time grinding for stuff that may or may not drop. Alas, this is the way the game is, it is what has to be done to get better gear I have done that, I have only taken the first step at getting better gear, but I'll get there. I am speaking of the fairness of the way items are obtained. Is the game fair to everyone? No it isn't. So fairness has no bearing on whether or not they have a "sale" That is the whole point I was attempting to make, but I do get long winded sometimes and lose people along the way. Sorry.
