Rye Encoke.1573 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Just wondering if they ever go on sale, the more you buy the bigger discount. Does it ever happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 It does not. Sometimes, retailers offer discounts on Gem Cards. Do make sure to only use Authorized Retailers, though, to avoid any issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solvar.7953 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 The things you buy with gems sometimes go on sale (depending on what you want to buy). So that can still be a direct savings, as you then need to buy fewer gems to get what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannelore.8153 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Gem exchange prices are based upon how many people are buying gold with real money versus gems with in-game gold, so they do "go on sale" if you're buying with gold if lots of people are spending money, but they never go on sale if you're the one spending money. Money is the guaranteed way to get a set amount of gems, and gold is the risky, and potentially more oppertunistic way. Let me give you an example, a friend of mine waited until shared slots went on sale, which caused the gem market to crash from everyone buying them with money, and then spent a decent amount of gold to max out her shared slots all in one go, benefitting both from the market crash and from the item itself being on sale, and as a result, was able to buy something absurdly expensive for relatively nothing. Money x Item not on sale = No savings, no risk (as long as the item is in circulation) Money x Item on sale = Medium savings, medium risk (mostly relying on the item being in circulation *and* on sale) Gold x Item on sale = High savings, high risk (needs farming, item in circulation, item on sale and enough purchases to lower exchange rates) EDIT: Made some clarifications to my wording.

Cyninja.2954 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Gems have not been on sale as of yet, outside of: - being discounted with expansion bundles - having gem cards be discounted with retailers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddoctor.2738 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Unfortunately no. They've never done a bulk sale discount, or even regular discount, on their gem store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
