Glancing around I'm very surprised to not see a thread or comment about this..
Thou I freely admit my search was not exhaustive.
Nice One DB !
Very good.
About time !
Micro Transactions !
Thank you.
If all 10 we're bundled as they typically are I'd have easily passed completely..
But, instead I Bought Two.
Yeah, it's not a lot.
Not shooting up at VIP14 with purchases like that lol.. but it's $3 (Canadian) you didn't have before.. and I got a bit of what I wanted.
I hope you do more of these.
Keep this idea in mind in the future.
Bundles are great, I love bundle deals..
But I also like being able to meet small purchases sometimes too.
Instead of a $30 deal for a 5* and 10x10 of that event pack (or whatever the deal was)
Offer that, and offer the 5* solo (like your $12.99 5* deal that I've seen twice)
And offer the 10x's separately..
Maybe I'd want the 5* and skip the packs..
Maybe I'd want to gamble in hope of getting more then a single 5* on just the packs..
(Winning equals buying for me)
Hellloooo if it's the rare right character that I really want and buy the combo, buy the 5* and buy the second lot of 10x packs too.
More options gives us more ways to give you money.
So digressing and recapping,
Thanks for the Micro Deal.
Love it.. do it more with other things as well.

You can purchase about 450 dilithium (give or take depending on your VIP) for $5.00
$3.33 worth of dilithium (using 300 of the 450) gets 12 standard 10 pull boost packs
$9.90 in cash gets 10 premium 10 pull boost packs.
So the deal was triple the cost for fewer boosts with only a very small chance that you get a couple of better boosts.
This really shows that the premium boost packs are either very overpriced (regular cost is 250 dilithium for 1 pack where standard is only 50 dilithium, so premium is 5 times the cost) or premium boost packs need to "boost" their content to 5 times the value for 5 times the cost by giving a lot more guaranteed purple and gold boosts per pack
... But that said, still glad to see them dipping their toes into micro purchases.. even if the value wasn't the best
Yes — I thought it was interesting, and I hope they do more of those types of smaller offers... even though I wasn't going to bite on this one.
Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.
