Is it worth it?
 
The Iron Bag is 17,500 SparkCash. Which equals to $25 USD. Just wondering if you guys think it's worth it. It's 2 permanent inventory spaces for your character... yes or no?

I'm wondering if people will 'complain' about it and then Outspark reducing prices. They reduced prices for several items so I'm wondering if this will be too... and if it does get reduced... I probably should wait out?

I survived with 2 basic spaces... so I'm not sure about $25 on 2 more.

EDIT: Some stuff are on sale until April 1st. The Easter Pack went down about 50% I believe.

Laifun 03-25-2008 09:27 AM

nope.. not worth it =_=

why would you pay $25 for one item....... D:D: I thought maybe around $15 would have been reasonable

but still... i bet heaps of people already bought it =_=

NotMyWay 03-25-2008 10:02 AM

You can always transfer items from one character to another... Unless u go about carrying 2 bags full of potions and scrolls? although if u hardly have time to vend ur storage might get full of materials... but u can always NPC them...

Hessah 03-25-2008 10:13 AM

I totally ran out of space trying to keep all the dust i got from Abyss grinding...

BUT $25 is too much.. i can get another weapon to +9 with that kinda money

and its only 2 more pages of inventory space for ONE character..

if it's 1 character + 2 pages in storage then maybe i'll consider...

but only 8 extra rows.... nah

AngellicDiety 03-25-2008 11:22 AM

I'll have to admit I was a bit disheartened when I saw the price as 25 bucks.

Personally, I dont think it's worth it unless Fiesta were truely a great game.

There isn't enough that is "interesting" about fiesta to justify cash-shop items being expensive.

Hessah 03-25-2008 11:36 AM

LOL yeah i was expecting it to be about $15 and even taht i'd consider it to be expensive...

oOAnubisOo 03-25-2008 12:05 PM

Broke my heart ***Cries***, I was so ready too. I logged in having forgotten about the contents of the update, as soon as I saw the scattered pyramids I thought "OMG, I get an Iron Box! WooHOO!" only for my heart to sink at the price.

I could really use the space, but I could use other things more at that price. It's wayyy on the back burner now. Bummer.

Phantom Badger 03-25-2008 01:35 PM

way not worth it.

Spirit 03-25-2008 01:49 PM

Was the price of the Easter pack already reduced? I never looked at the price before, to know if it was reduced.

Zodiac 03-25-2008 02:36 PM

Well it is permanent but that outrages for the price so I say nay. =\

Villi 03-25-2008 02:36 PM

is there any way to like gift item shop stuff? :)

and wtf 25 dollars for 1 stuff is way too much...even the costumes look expensive to me because i waste too much cash on my bike. xD

Spirit 03-25-2008 02:37 PM

Currently you cannot gift cashshop items or cashshop money.

Loveless 03-25-2008 03:08 PM

Yup, not worth it.

The Easter Pack used to be 9800. And the storage pack went down by 450.

Spirit 03-25-2008 04:02 PM

Yeah, I really wanted the iron case for at least 2 of my girls, but :eek: that is $50.00 just for storage. Would have to look back to see how many times I have bought the extra bag and see if it is worth all that, but I cannot see it. Maybe if it does not sell well, they will reduce the price.

Ivramire 03-25-2008 04:07 PM

I blame people who said they were willing to pay 25$ for perm. stuff in that Outspark survey.....


well, not really, but 25$? ouch.

Spirit 03-25-2008 04:16 PM

<----- willing to pay if it gave more. Like if the $25 covered all four of my girls or maybe was for inventory and not pockets.

Loveless 03-25-2008 04:27 PM

I'm sure that they'll rethink their pricing... a lot of people on the official forums had mentioned how they'd be willing to buy them if it were under 10000 SC. I mean I expected it to be a bit pricey seeing that it is permenant but this is a bit ridiculous.

Hayza 03-25-2008 04:40 PM

Well I think it's way to much. If your that in-love with fiesta go ahead.

Phibrizzo 03-25-2008 09:35 PM

that's almost 2 months worth of WoW, rofl >_<
so not buying it even if I still played Fiesta XD

Hessah 03-25-2008 10:07 PM

The old back for 30 days cost 2300

So you'll hv to use the iron case fore more than 7-8 months to make it worth getting....

hmmmm i dunno if i'll be in constant inventory problem for 7-8 months...

and yeah.. i can do so much more with $25

Loveless 03-26-2008 12:35 AM

Well, when you think about it... you were fine with the two you had the whole time you've been playing. So I'm sure a LOT of people could live without 2 more bags to save that $25 for something else.

Ralath 03-26-2008 12:44 AM

Not worth it.

I charge up in amounts of $5 at a time, just as a guilty pleasure for myself.

But $25 is no longer a guilty pleasure. >.>

So I'm going to wait and see if they reduce the price. Honestly, I wouldn't buy it for more than $10. But... I am a student with not a lot of cash to burn so... meh. I'll live without it.

well... i've had lotsa headaches and each time before we go grinding i spend 5 mins trying to move my materials around my characters and inventory so i have space for MORE materials....

so extra 2 bags will probably save me some time...

but... those time isnt worth $25....

Triumph 03-26-2008 01:02 AM

It's not worth it.

I have observed their marketing strategy ever since November 2007, and I'll admit: It's a very good marketing ploy. I commend them.

Loveless 03-26-2008 01:24 AM

Where do you go to get that much mats? .__o

I've always had one full bag (with quest items, pots, and scrolls) and the second one free for drops and that was more than enough space. Currently with my Fighter I've got Hunter's War Rant and I'm still okay with drops unless I somehow get green drops...

By getting t2 materials and only using the decomposed form? (since i dont think t2 potions sell that well do they?) another problem is lets say u fight only harkans (which are summoned beasts) for a few levels (because of a license), u will gain a lot of tough meat, but cant use them without spirit's fruit or magic crystal, neither of which are dropped by harkans.

i think the problem is that i have all 5 production skills and i dont NPC anything...

AOEing in Abyss doesnt help either (i've got at least 1500 T2,T3 dust and i wanna keep it so i can make stones)

u should take a look at my storage/inventory one day... except for bones... you can name almost any materials and I'll have it.... (my guildies knows this as i often have everything they need for quest LOL)

Loveless 03-26-2008 02:41 AM

Lol This is what my storage and bag looks like. My second bag is usually empty... and I give all my stone/pot mats to my alt. :3 I'm just waiting to be able to make those T2 scrolls... have to find the Def/Vitality ones. >3

Probably why I don't have a problem with storage space. Though I would definitely buy if they lower the price.

Ralath 03-26-2008 03:02 AM

Wow... your inventory is soo organized.

Reminds me of something like this:

Hessah 03-26-2008 03:11 AM

Hmm i would like to do a screen shot for u too maybe when i get home..

That's the key there. I'll willing to bet as well that a significant amount of people have already bought it. Kudos to Outspark for a wicked, but probably effective marketing ploy

Loveless 03-26-2008 03:39 AM

Lol @ Ralath

Now if only my room was as organized...

viasta 03-26-2008 03:41 AM

omg, no, 25 usd for 1 game item? rip off, only retards would buy it, which is almost all the Fiesta. I would only spend 5 USD max for any game item

NotMyWay 03-26-2008 03:47 AM

I just had a random thought...

25USD=about 50SGD (i think)=the allowance i, a student, recieve in 1 week=enough money to play LAN/Internet games (in a internet cafe) for about 25 hours=a lot of exp (if i can even have the perserverance to grind fiesta that long...)

Definately not worth it.

Loveless 03-26-2008 04:34 AM

I'd understand $25 USD for a p2p game as a monthly fee. Definitely NOT a single item whether it is permenant or not.

Hessah 03-26-2008 04:36 AM

not for a single item that no one can see an go "waoh" anyway LOL

Ralath 03-26-2008 04:41 AM

^LOL!

It is all about the "waoh."

Enraya 03-26-2008 04:42 AM

You can buy so much for 25 USD @-@;
Not just a pixelated two more storage icons ...

I think it's cool, but they're really overpricing.

[ EDIT ]

@ Ralath/Loveless

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

@ Triumph

You observe everything, don't you? = =;

Of course.

You may want to stock up on perfect T2/T3 sets now. If Outspark's current marketing strategy persists, I'm speculating that the T3 stones will be 3775 for reds and 2775 for blues after the sale is over.

That's about $US9.36 per ten enhancements, with success rate estimated about 12.5% at +4 for +6 enhancement, and 6.25% for +7 to +9. The average enhancer will therefore require an estimated three sets for a level 3 weapon. Shields and armor are harder, of course.
