May Gift Shop Offers

RunninKurt's Photo RunninKurt May 03 2012

Is it just me, or when I try to click "PAY" to buy a tank, it asks me to download an unknown file, and doesnt take me to PayPal to pay for it? Any help would be appreciated.

The mysterious Type 59 will more than likely make an appearance. Yes.

Because we had 10000000000000000000 whine and complain threads about the type 59 so if/when they do put it back it will be when the MM is ready for the floodgates to open and my guess is it will not be as cheap as it was before so just prep yourselves now for that so I dont need to read the 6million threads complaining.

Yep, I'm guessing it will be at least 10K, but I'll still be buying one.

Those of you buying tanks, when you click pay, does it take you to a payment screen? Am I the only one having issues buying tanks? I can buy gold just fine, I can buy tanks in game just fine, but the gift shop doesnt work for me.

Yes this happened for me also. I think it has to do with some settings on IE.
I went to Chrome and it worked fine.

Well, you already own the tank. So I can only advise you to look through other packages. Probably you will like an option with a vehicle you do not own still.



You will receive 1000 gold from package + 1500 gold for the tank price + a garage slot.

I just bought 2 T14 packs and did not get any gold for the extra tank or an extra garage slot. Only 1000g... NOT happy!

Isn't that because you have the tank already?  However, you should get it's worth in gold if I'm reading gifting rules correctly.....

Well, being the accountant that I am, I had to figure this out. I used the gold/$ ratio from the 3000 gold package ($14.95) to normalize "standard" cost of these deals. That package is the smallest you could get if you had no gold to use on this already. So, here goes:

T-15 deal:
Gold equivalent - 2000
Cost or this much gold normally (using 14.95 for normalization) - $9.97
Savings - 40%

T-127 deal:
Gold equivalent - 1600
Cost normally - $7.97
Savings - 50%

T-14 deal:
Gold equivalent - 2800
Cost normally - $13.95
Savings - 43%

T-25 deal:
Gold equivalent - 2400
Cost normally - $11.96
Savings - 42%

Sweet deals WG! Granted, I'm satisfied already when it comes to my stable of premium tanks, but these are good deals nonetheless.

I did some quick figuring on my own, though I used the $49.95 gold package as a basis, and these deals work out roughly to the tank and slot being 50% off, with the extra gold on top.  Good deals, especially if the multiple-package quirk turns out to not be an issue.

Neat sale, just not anything I'm interested in.

With all due respect, if there is a whine thread on the forums, no one is going to make you read it but you.  If that's really the only reason why you would not want one tank or another in a sale, well, I don't know what to tell you.

Maybe you should play a few lower tier matches and end up facing 6-7 churchills, t14's or KV's if you're going to complain about MM imbalances.  Hell, the Type is weaker in its current MM than the KV/T-14/Churchill is in its MM, even after patch.
