Crystal prices

Prev1
When did they announce the price hike in crystals? Seems absurd...

    Crystal prices have not changed. They are based in USD and use regional exchange values to produce local values.

    When did they hike the crystal price though?
    I need a new message here. https://discord.gg/AmStGTH
  • They did change. 100 bucks got me the vault from day 1. Now it's 136...
  • I guess I'm an ****. If I click on them the same old price comes up except for the one before vault. That's always been 50 and it says 49.99 but if you click it it says 68 ish

    Yeah, these are some weird prices.

    $19.99 for 2800
    $68.01 for 7370
    $99.99 for 15710


    Here's the thing. 3 x chest = 8400, which is ~$60.

    So what you're telling me is that I can pay $68.01 for a crate of fewer crystals than if I just purchased 3 $19.99 chests?
  • The one for 68.01 used to always be 49.99. I'm pretty confident on that.

    Sorry @Kyno - jumping in to expedite fix.

    Can anyone who is getting this issue confirm what region they're in, and whether they're Apple or Google. As well as what price tiers are affected.

    Is there any chance you ever set up a foreign credit card or used a foreign store? We aren't seeing this on US Google store internally.

    I'm in Michigan, United States. Google user. I also sumbitted a bug report on answers HQ and reviewed my history. 5 days ago this same pack was 52 and some change after taxes... Now I've been charged 72. Dollars that is.
  • Btw, mine are different too. Never used foreign currency
  • @CG_Carrie
    I am US region. Using Google on android device. All my crystal prices are as they should be but the Dark Lord Bundle is showing up as $27.20.
    I have other clan mates that are having crystal prices all incorrect.

    Thank you all. Please understand this is not our intention and we are checking with the catalog provider to ensure that this bug is corrected. I would recommend requesting an immediate refund form your carrier, until we can sort out what is happening.

  • I don't want to be a **** but I'd prefer the problem fixed a refund or additional crystals come from EA.

    No Ma'am. Same wrong prices and same wrong amount taken out of my account. @CG_Carrie

    Not to make it more confusing, but mine appear to be the same prices as always. So I don't think this is affecting everybody.
  • It's not - half my guildmates see it and the other half think I'm on LSD. It's frustrating to no end because I got taken for a ride here.

    I am on a U.S. localized Samsung Note8 (Android), and it has never been out of the country since I've had it. Currently my prices break down like this:

    Pouch of Crystals - $2.83 (before today was $1.99)
    Bag of Crystals - $6.79 (was $4.99)
    Box of Crystals - $9.99
    Chest of Crystals - $19.99
    Crate of Crystals - $68.01 (was $49.99)
    Vault of Crystals - $99.99

    Thanks for your prompt response =).

    I have steps for this workaround, please let me know if this works.
    1. Exit SWGoH.
    2. Enter Device Settings.
    3. Tap Apps (or navigate to Applications > Manage Applications).
    4. Open the "Google Play Store app".
    5. Open "Storage".
    6. Select "Clear Data".
    7. Restart SWGoH.
    8. Verify prices match as expected.

    This worked for me. Thanks for the speedy workaround!

    Fixed what I see. Now about my refund. I want to speak with someone on that.
  • Did you clear cache? Or data? Try restarting device after clearing cache
  • No one can change the prices except them unless they were hacked, then the packs and bundles would be free :)
