No limited time, exclusives, that are specially made for any of the 22 or so shops there seem to be? It's laughable how scarcely they get new items, compared to Victoire, so you think there would be soething nice, something actually worth buying, good quality, and with a few additional poses, in the cheapo stores around Black Friday, to get people interested in spending gold, outside the pitiful once a month update

Not sure if they even received any updates during this time. I don't really remember. I doubt they'd care outside their usual schedule though since they don't necessarily earn from gold shop items. I doubt they'd let their artists spend time on working on essentially freebies.

Sales like this are meant to make money for Gaia so gold shops aren't a part of that.

A gold sink event styled after sales like this some time could be cool though! I'd like that, maybe instead of having items sold at different times some gold shops would have store themed event exclusive items on certain days, then other shops would have their own the next day. Dernier Cri (This would be better than Loyal's, because I'm still not sure everyone has access yet.) could have event exclusive multipose items.

if they don't want their artists wasting time on freebies, then they should uit the free itm grants, and just delete all the non cash currency shops, and make the hole site p2p

It's not fair that non cash currency holders don't get to have anything special done for them, for BF. But, ok, I guess users who don't cough up cash aren't important.

I'm pretty sure the Gaian Revenue Service put in restrictive rules for gold shops Black Friday after Carl's little...incident with gatecrashers.

So much blood...I shudder remembering it. eek

iit's every day, multiple times a day that Gaia advertises sales and whatever else out of LV. 10 cash ads a day. No other business does that. I I'm sure they make a good amount of money yer roun, with how many item they're able to push out on a daily basis. Its hardly too much to ask, for 1 day out the year to do a speial black. Friday goodie sale geared toward both cash shop spenderd nd gold shop spenders.

Actually everyone is doing a multi day sale.

Target is having a 10 day Black Friday sale that actually started Sunday and ends some day next week. Plus you have to factor in Cyber Monday next Monday..

A lot of people are extending out the whole Black Friday deals by doing a different thing everyday, Gaia is no different than most retailers. Even Amazon is doing some special sales over the next few days. It's the time to capitalize on money.

that's nothing special, th Ho ugh, since it follows the same released formula every month, like an afterthought, once all the focus gets put on special goodies and promos and stuff for LV.
The othe shops should be sharing in the fun, and feeling more special, too, with item exclusives and holiday sales

Gaia knows that we will purchase no matter what. Why would they put anything on sale? They don't care

They've never had any Gold shop black Friday deals, least not that I ever remember happening, the idea is a swanky one thou.

Would be amazing if Loyal had a sale to where his price was an actual loyalty reward * insert awesome face here*
