Thoughts and opinions on this new development?

THREE items in the letter to choose from instead of two!

So does this mean you are going to buy extra this month?

They didn't note that it was a permanent change... so I'm assuming that it's for this month only.

Aww... they LOVE us soo much rolleyes

as soon as that announcement came up i went to check the MP, december letters are priced at 17k right now!

i mean 3 items is cool, but so is the profit that Gaia will make this month because of them!
i hope the items are worth it!

Oh.. that's what just entered my mind as I read these last two questions:

Quote:

Q: Does this mean I get an extra item for free?
A: Nay, you just get to pick from three different items in each envelope instead of two.

Q: So, basically, is this just really, really great?
A: Yes, this whole thing is really great, and we're all so excited that we've been jumping around and shrieking about it all week (seriously)

Basically, if we want one of each item, we'll have to buy 3 letters intead of 2, or 6 for doubles, which means Gaia makes more money, hence their exuberance. stare

I anticipate this is a permanent change.

i don't know what to think.
this month obviously they're packaging it as THEIR gift to US. knowing that most of the kids will see it that way.
but they will also surely realise that the donating adults will realise that it is actually the other way around!

One also has to wonder with whom they're flirting for buy-outs or some-such if they're trying to get their end-of year books looking so much better with such a strategy! Of course, there's always the *chance* this is a once-a-year "gift".... rofl

stupid gaia, they want more money !! it is a non-profit organisation because it doesnt generate any profit by work. they only get donations... a lot of them..
the items will probably be crap, im not getting a 3rd envelpe mrgreen
did i mention that they get a lot of donations?

i read lanzers diary - 50ppl working , u have to pay them, so u have to have a lot of cash + maintanance of servers... .. this might be a pernament 3 items per sealed envelope , ooops i beg your pardon - monthly collectable....

I'm kinda excited about the change in having 3 items to pick from. This could also mean that items would go up faster in value as you have a 33.3 chance now. On the downside now I'll barely be able to get 1 of each. oh well.
