Off topic, but calling a September 6 update.
I'm just going by the established pattern with every other add-on where pre-purchase goes into effect two weeks prior to the actual release.
As for the prices of the pieces, do recall that there's something special about these.
All of these pieces are super high demand equips with awesome stats. And more importantly, there is onyl 2 ways to get them, kill the NM that drops them yourself, or buy it.
And not everyone owns the expansion pack, thus they have only 1 way to buy it, which means the people who DO own the expansion can set the price higher.
Thus the inflation.
Disregarding your grammar-interrupted argument, if I have nothing else to spend money on, want the items, have a fairly large sum of gil, and want to save my stones on equipment that cannot be gotten without doing Abyssea while having already made an attempt at the drop, I'm stupid?
You're kidding yourself.
Maybe it's not the right thing for you but saying it's dumb for everyone is a huge fail of a blanket statement application.
Now, for things like cruor gear, you have a point. The people who paid millions for those were morons, and I made well over 10M gil off of them.
I personally think people are paying the high prices for abyssea gear because of the fact its a timed zone and time is precious inside aby. If you dont have time to get everything you need then ofc ppl will buy the items if its easier than getting a group to kill it and let them have, the other half is impatience.
