I won’t promote this other game for reasons, but there is one i used to play that does actually sell past event items at high price so that people who originally missed the item can still get them.
I don’t agree with marking the items up just to get at people for being late or missing out completely as that is just an unnecessary punishment when the item really didn’t lose value or technically gain any either as the printing costs for re-releasing hasn’t just magically gone up, it’s just a dang flip of some store code…
I am completely fine with them delaying the re-release over a couple months to let those people who where there and participated have a bit of fun owning before anyone else that came later, but keeping it rare just cause or to mark it up later for huge profit margins just cause they can take advantage of some people isn’t cool.
Let people get the items, it’s not like anyone really had to work hard to get them in the first place, it’s not like they did a 100-person raid or something for some uber leet boss drop.
Sorry my WoW experience is showing a bit there lol.
I think some of the items make it into a rotation now that i think about it as reskins, but i am not sure if all the items do or will.
At any rate, i do support putting the items in the store after a brief delay.
