    Thats how real blackfriday works, people stomp you if you don't stomp them

    At least you can buy prepaid NX, my only option is credit...

    It's like this every year.

    Worst part is that Nexon gets your money when you charge the NX, not when you spend it. So as far as they're concerned, if they got you to charge 25k, the sale was a success, and they'll do it the same way again next year.

    @NakazatoJL , you can get prepaid by buying Karma Koin online, from PCGameSupply.com

    welp either way I'm rather mad and irritated. And now all the people who bought multiple packs are overcharging for items as usual.

    How is it not fair? You didn't click fast enough. Everyone had the same chance.

    Not really. Low ping always wins with these sales. Oh well, what can you do. It's not meant to be fair.

    It figures the only box I wanted to buy gets bought up. (yeah I'm just ranting now, especially since a couple of guildies bought MULTIPLE packages)

    Didn't the notice say the Black Friday boxes had a limit of one per account?

    Since I definitely saw more than 3 box openings in the stupid red notification obviously not - it only says there'd be a limited number of packages.

    Yeah, I misremembered.
    It was the Cube "Mega Packs" that were one-to-a-customer.

    Totally not fair, and you think nexon would want more money, guess not or they only care for the richly rich people.

    They do want money, and they get it.
    They got OP's $25, even though he didn't get the box he wanted.
    As long as they can get people to charge NX for the Black Friday sales, they're happy. Why should they let people have cheap goods in return, when they can just wait until those people end up buying something full-priced with that NX?

    I actually charged 25k NX just for Sunday box. Immediately when it resets i go into cash shop. Entire shop is blank and bugged. Then i exit and go back in, boxes sold out in 4 seconds lmao.

    AYYYYYYYYY now i have 25k nx hanging around, no transparent item sales. I guess i'll just use that for Marvel or MT.
