308 [-BCO-] Bandi73 Members 879 posts 1,759 battles Report post #1 Posted October 31, 2020 Hi. What is the value of the aforementioned coupon? I'm asking because I've seen contradicting explanations. For example, I if purchase an item valued for....let's say 2000 doubloons, then I will receive my item + 4000 dubloons? Because...that's what 200% means. But, I saw explanations which stated that it is actually the item +2000 dubloons. WeeGgee seems utterly incapable of proper unambiguous communication Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

308 [-BCO-] Bandi73 Members 879 posts 1,759 battles Report post #3 Posted October 31, 2020 Yes. But the coupon is a " cashback" coupon and in that case it should mean item + value + value .That's the definition of 200% cashback. If it is "just" item + value. that's NOT 200%, it is 100% and the wording is misleading at best... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bought 25K doubloons and got around 49.5K bounus, so the bonus will be a bit less than double. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its a coupon, you are not going to get cash money back. In fact Virtual Goods which is what this falls under is a pretty narrow form of finance using real dollars via credit card or similar. If you run into exchange rate then if its not in your favor it will cost you more dollars to get x amount of something. Plus upwards of a 3% fee that can be imposed by those who are being consumed by actual credit cards in merchant fees etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

308 [-BCO-] Bandi73 Members 879 posts 1,759 battles Report post #18 Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) Hi. I can confirm that the coupon ( to my surprise) work as advertised. I bought doubloons (2500) and I received the stated value ( in total 7500).I bought two months premium time (so I will be covered for the holidays) and 2 permacamos for my favourite T6's. I play operations (a LOT) so ....it would help there. Edited November 2, 2020 by Bandi73 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
