Not getting Hermes Shoes on character creation.

[Etra]

You're way too late for the Hermes Shoes. This event, as well as the discounted price for having XI and XIV subs, is long since past. You'll have to play without them.

[Krisan]

Nah, I got them just now finally. The server restart seemed to fix the problem.
What made you think I was too late for them? Besides I had them on my old character anyway as it was.
