    Regarding the Cherry Tree, Thank You

    Thank you, SE, for finally putting the Eastern Cherry Tree on the Mog Station. I don't own a house myself and so cannot use it, but I'm glad to see it up there as it is one of my favorite yard furnishings and I love seeing them. Also, thank you for adding them at a reasonable price. $5 each is very fair.

    While I agreed with your statement that having an option to purchase the cherry tree is a good thing, I can't tell if you're being sarcastic with the final sentence. Since you said you don't own a house, I can tell you that it's easy to come up with a good looking yard design that can utilized anything from one to five cherry trees easily, and maybe eight to ten on a large mansion. By no means it's necessary, but surely you can tell how quickly the bill can add up. Don't get me wrong, I can easily buy a bunch of them with the amount of money I usually spend on drinks, but I simply disagree that the pricing is fair.

    I remember old threads discussing the tree how people said it'd probably be no less than $15 a tree, given other yard furnishings on the Mog Station and such. As others have said, buying the tree and selling it on the MB will make it available to others without having to spend money if they don't want to. Overall, $5 strikes me as fair.

Like one tree, two max, a handfull of those smaller pink blossom bushes, a bridge, a pond, a series of stepping stones and a fire and some benches would be pretty. Wouldn't have to pay more than $5-10 for that, and if you got the two tree deal you basically get the pretty mat and umbrella for free. I would say it's a good deal considering, and it definitely should bring the mb prices on those trees down a bit.

    I think $5 would be fine if you could also buy them from the Salvage, like one in your mail box and then you can buy more for like 50K to 200K (the price that beastmen tribe items cost). If it does, then cool :3

    But uh 5 each? Good lord lol, people would easily want to put more than one tree in their Asian themed housing (like 5 easily). Maybe even if it was bundled haha. It's cool they made the item available again, as I'm sure it was /highly/ desired, but I'd have to agree with SokiYagami that I'm not sure that $5 each is a great price :P.

    Those marketing folks at work again. And look we'll have cherry blossom petals to go with that $5 tree this year too.

    Pretty sure the mogstation stuff is bound on purchase. You can't trade them or put them on the mb that I know of.

    So long as it's not the "destroyed on removal" type of binding to the location that some housing items have. That would totally suck for something you paid real money for. (And yet, without that rule, I'm not sure how they would prevent other FC members with decorating privileges from stealing them. This game really needs the "bound to <character ID>" setting that games like LOTRO have, where if someone removes your decoration, it just returns to you.)

    Someone who bought from the mogstation would have to confirm it, but I'm fairly sure they don't blow up on removal. That said the wallpapers, light fixtures and what not that are on the mogstation that normally get destroyed on removal still do.
