XIV x Gong Cha collab

[Aetheral]

Ima say it, because im certain no one else has the kuponuts to say it.

What even is this collab?
Congratulations SE, you played yourself. You played this collab in a way to let scalpers screw over the playbase actually wanting the mount.

To give people a rough idea, Gong Cha where I am, AND neighbouring suburbs were doing the handout as EVERY 3 drinks in an individual transaction, not 1 order of 3+ drinks ("purchase three teas in a single transaction to receive a redemption code for the Porxie King mount." Cited from the promo page).
This really needed to be done as a "Purchase 3, submit your receipt, get a code" either to GC or SE.

Currently, the mount is going for 50USD (75AUD) to 300USD (450AUD) because, ya know, scalpers. Once the event ends, this will go up MINIMUM 4fold.

There are literally several threads in the first 3 pages of this forum complaining about this; you are not the first.

As for the collab, I'm pretty sure gong cha gets to decide how to distribute them. Here in Japan you need a line account (Like whatsapp where you need a phonr nr) and you can only get the code once per account. So, in Japan there are no scalping problems (unless you want to sell your singular code)

Also, can we be real for a second? The reward for this collab is an existing mount with a crown. Hardly something to get upset over.
