So I haven't used the code for this yet.

Mainly because I feel it's a cheap replacement for something that makes up for extreme delay. I also still haven't used it because I don't know why I would.



So I have so questions regarding it.

Will the code expire anytime soon?

Is this really it?




To be honest the depressing feeling that came when the box containing the nendoroid was opened still lingers and I'd like some clarification.

Why should I use the code, and get two of that headband? Can I trade it in for something else? Can I ebay it? Is it worth to ebay it even?
Right now I'm keeping it because it holds no value to me other than being a little sticker on a business card, and that bugs me.

It won't do you any good in code form. I would just redeem it and leave it on the playspan npc personally.

Let's see if they include this trade in with the brasilis update, hopefully we get some kind of event.

Hello,

Yes I am aware of the thread. There is still a very limited amount of those Heart Ribbon Hairbands, trading it in-game should be worthwhile as would holding on to it for its value to rise. It has value, but it is just not something you want because you don't like the headgear. If we were selling the headgear it would be quite expensive, so from our perspective the value given was extensive, but you may disagree of course.

I'm not sure what part of the thread you wanted me to pay attention to, we did state that it was a pre-order and that shipping would be later. If the issue was pressed for a refund, you would have to ship back the AB at your cost, and we would refund the WP points - shipping and handling, & delete the ribbons you received. The items were shipped promptly upon receiving by us, it is unfortunate it took as long as it did but that is reality I guess.

I certainly think that it is rather absurd to discuss lawyers and such over such an inexpensive figurine, as 1 hour of lawyer time likely is more than you paid, and proving a "point" by bringing up the case would result in added time and cost from you in shipping it back.

There isn't much I can say about this that won't come off as defensive or offensive to you (I certainly think what I've said already seems that way), so please understand that I am being informative not aggressive with you. I sincerely hope that you love your nenderoid, and find a buyer for the ribbon for a ridiculous amount in-game. We wanted the event to be a great thing for those that participated, rather than a point of contention as it seems to have become.

and

You will be able to turn in the headgear for a different one when we have more S class gear to offer. That will lower the availablilty of it as well raising everyone elses value.

We could not offer points back, it was discussed but disallowed due to the costs.

Really? They couldn't give points back because of the "cost"? WP points don't cost them anything it's a virtual infinite resource that costs their producers absolutely nothing. They just didn't wanna upload the points to peoples accounts cause that would involve a slight employee effort. Clicking a mouse a few times is so goddamn hard! :(

yeah pretty much.

in the original ticket I asked if they were serious, or if the second heart ribbon hairband code was a joke/mistake. Leave it to gravity to-_- up any chance of decent compensation.

I actually didn't open my package until this week, it arrived a few weeks ago but I haven't been home for a whole month so that sucked.

The whole time issue is really bugging me, I sat there thinking "I waited several months for this ??", and took out the nendoroid box while flump the card slides out from the cardboard box which it had gotten stuck to(without any glue, it just got stuck to the cardboard).

I haven't even opened the nendoroid in case something comes up, and because of the history behind it it's worth more now. Saving the code along with the nendoroid box also holds more value than just the box because you can then offer the "original deal" to someone who might want to buy it, which was that you bought the figurine and got the ribbon along with it.

That's the only thing I see with having the second ribbon right now. And then there's the "other S class item" thing, I want to see what that's all about.



---------------
edit; I'm not sure we've seen a picture of the card with the code(kinda depressing), so if you haven't seen it, here you go;

It looks like something I'd make for a school project where we dramatized the card scene from American Psycho, this card being the worst of the bunch.

The joy of online shopping. The doll itself should have as much utility now as it did when you ordered it - as for the in game item it's value has only increased. It's just a figurine to add to your collection and now it has been added, no? A true collector would not even redeem the code, but hold onto the mint condition box for 30 years until such a point that the game no longer exists (/sob) and when lawyers will be needed to verify if the code was ever redeemed from the (30 years in the future) massive enterprise that is Gravity online. At such a point, having verified your code was never used and your doll is indeed the original from the limited shipping of 100 dolls from 2011, you can then sell it and buy the Gravity Grocery Stores and Ragnarok Online Television sets with your untold billions from your ultra rare sale. Ah, the joys of online shopping. Sit on your purchase for 30 years and see what happens!

What they're not telling you is that that "S Class" item you can trade in for later will be available to anyone else. Probably through Lucky Boxes or by buying X amount of Kafra points. Gravity rarely makes anything completely exclusive.

Tucan Hat was more exclusive and far more amusing ^^ although the gentleman below could benefit from 'blank eyes' as well

I forgot how does that head gear looks like, but I am assuming it's the one on your AV, yes? If so, what do you think is the best or more acceptable "free headgear" that they should have included in the package?

Or you can have the last resort! Sell it to other players. I know there are a lot of other people that wants that head gear--like me for instance. :( I want it!

in my opinion, it could be one of the nice headgears created by the headgear contest - or a headgear that normally doesn't belong to us (like an exclusive jRO headgear) and that's only be aviable during this way :3
But maybe I'm hoping to much x3

It should be extremely rare and only available to you guys. Paying 70$ and getting your goods half a year late isn't cool.

I don't mind the delay - and it wasn't half a year o.O
Guess it was about 3 month later?
I'm also happy about the 2nd Heart Ribbon Hairband, but I'm also looking forward to the headgear you can trade it in x3
And personally, I hope it's just one and I don't have to decide between 2 or more XD

I'm content with that we got another ribbon, it's alright since it's one of the items you really can't get anywhere.
Also guessing that Gravity wasn't allowed to do anything else, since I heard that having the Heart Ribbon Hairband meant just having it without changing the stats or doing anything with it. Some kind of harsh order from HQ.
