Search Options ►BF: Sale prep!
Site Update
Good evening folks, we've been dusting off the shelves and prepping things for Black Friday, but I seem to have run across a few issues.
As everyone is very well aware, I only recently took over the position of Community Manager, and I have never actually been involved in Black Friday sales in the past, so I don't really know the majority of the items that go for sale.
Staff and I have been discussing different items that have shown up in the past and we thought it would be nice to get input from the userbase as well! So if you remember previous items go ahead and put them in the comments, please include which Shop they were in and if you remember the price!
That way we can use it as a spring board to properly plot out this years sale :3 Of course prices may differ from previous years, and shops may change around depending on certain aspects, but really anything is a good start.
Feel free to include items you want to see as well!
Thanks!

I think the neura embryo was 200 million BP without either the premium discount or the added on discount (as if you add on those, it would equal 168 million BP!)
I actually think the Dragon Lotus might be 150 million BP without any discounts. and the extra bonus wasn't taken off in Kyte's estimates, only the premium discount. as it would make sense imo? since things don't tend to be that weird of a regular price typically.
don't quote me on this though. just guessing.

** i guess i mean "as if you /subtract/ those, it would equal 168 million BP". as it's discounts and that's taking away.. yeah.... my bad

I'd really love some SCCs in the USD shop :) And I'd definitely buy GCCs if they were bundled for like $10 a piece or something.

also I'd love to see engagement rings/breedable potions. and the discounts. in the GP shop (an extra one in the BP shop would be snazzy). I think it was 20%, 15%, 10%, 5%. and for at least the BP shop and GP shop there was a slight chance of the items duplicating. I don't remember the percentages at all. but I think it was only for the first two days. (don't quote me on this either though. actually, no one quote me on anything *ever*. my memory ain't good enough for that and my massive indecisiveness doesn't help lol)

I'd say the FU pendant and the double premium would be great. I think if some of the items were to be re-released we might want to increase the price. For example, I think the glittering slabs should be more expensive if released at all. I think at 11 million BP or whatever it was, they are extremely underpriced.

on last thing. the 20%, 15%, etc discount was in the USD shop too. I meant for at least the USD shop and GP shop, not BP shop and GP shop... my mind is seriously wandering too much for me to type orz

I decided to see what sort of details were available for 2013, as well (currently located on Page 169 and it seems to have had some useful details.
For instance, the following GP Shop items were only available Friday of that year:
FU Pendant
Magic Glittering Skull
Species in a Bottle
Artist Ticket
Magic Custom Trove
Design Ticket
Hybrid Elixir
Then a later 2013 post said:
Black Friday Deals End Monday 11:59 PM
The following items will be removed from the GP Shop at that time:
Engagement Ring
Evil Breeding Coin
Bottled Starlight
Blood Filtering Kit
Breedable Potion
Alternate Cube
Metallic Starlight Bottle
Metallic Vion Seed
Essence of Revamp
Animated Silver Crystal
Animated Blue Crystal
So I think that gives you a pretty good idea of what was in the GP shop for Black Friday in 2013, at least.
