That meant that supply was pretty high. But if the supply of the common items is drying up, they too should be reprinted.Rohanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09090769681887119989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-27176232526603131552016-02-25T11:27:00.856-08:002016-02-25T11:27:00.856-08:00I do think that re-issuing the old stuff occasiona...I do think that re-issuing the old stuff occasionally is an absolute must, and not just the most sought-after items. I found it funny for example that you listed emotes as low-value. I'm so pleased that the chance cubes finally allowed me to complete my emote collection, and even so it cost me several million to buy the last couple I missed. But before that, these things just weren't on the GTN <i>at all</i>.<br /><br />I agree though that making it so that buying a pack from the newest shipment and having a chance to get nothing but old stuff was definitely not the smartest way to go (even if it benefited me personally).Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-12304367912263263962016-02-25T11:22:24.684-08:002016-02-25T11:22:24.684-08:00That's true, it applies to any item from the C...That's true, it applies to any item from the Cartel Packs.

They put out a set which had a chance to contain an item from any previous set.<br /><br />The main issue is that there are a *lot* of older sets, and Bioware is trying to keep the number of sets for sale at any one time down to a reasonable number.Rohanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09090769681887119989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-12589257724354139822016-02-25T02:22:44.292-08:002016-02-25T02:22:44.292-08:00The same problem (although you hear of it less) ap...The same problem (although you hear of it less) applies to stronghold decorations.
