Ok, I'm not sure if someone's already made a thread about this, so dont flame =/ I went in to CS to check whats new and click on "EVENT" & there stuff selling sfor 300nx or so, and the dolish pink, neon amulets, red checkered top, etc (you guys can check) and about a few weeks ago there was a thread that mentioned missing items, you think nexon took them out to put them on event or something ? i hope they put those selling items back in cs .____. Discuss. EDIT: I THINK, the higher the item sells for the longer it lasts.

They'll put it back in. I read from another thread, it's a marketing technique. They take out really popular items (ie star clip, shooting star wand) and then place it back in months later so people's reactions will be : "OMG *insert item here* IS BACK IN CS. WANTWANTWANTWANT. -charges NX / runs to store and buys-" That's basically what Nexon is hoping I think. Those evil, greedy Capitalists

Yes I saw this They take the normal ones out of their regular section and put it in the event section Once this 'event' is over they'll be back where they should be

some of the items are back again... i just checked cash shop today and i found some missing items like red slime slippers, dolish pink, neh neh neh boo bo, gothic dress, bunny doll cape, and others. Those items and others are back again in the normal categories, not only event category, and they are for 90 days too not only 3-10 days like the event ones

Dragonphlu said: "it's a marketing technique. " This. Taking out an item causes buzz which is free PR, and putting it back in results in more buzz and immideate buys. It's pretty obvious that they did it not only to get their old customers who liked the item to buy it when it comes back, but to allow people who didn't have the money or the idea that they could buy it to try it on for the few days they have, have them like it a lot, and then have them realize that they can't buy it. Until it's brought back.
