No more Perma NX

This is your last chance to get the permanent version of the decorative items currently in the Cash Shop because come December 1, 2010, the permanent item option is going away from the Cash Shop. Some new items will be available for permanent purchase later though, so check the website frequently for more news.

Got that off the site. Appeartly theres gonna be no more perma nx after November :O. I never knew they were going to take it away, thought it was just a option forever.

[quote=thongetsu]im not surprised. In the long term nexon would probably lose money if they continued perma nx. They will probably get an increased revenue due to people buying perma nx at the last minute.[/quote]

I agree fully with this. They're thinking well, economically; the demand for permanent NX is quite medial to high, and with that in mind, demand for non-permanent NX is medial to low, meaning, Instead of having people buying 30-day tops for 3k, they're buying lifelong tops for like..10k ( I don't know an exact price, sorry), thus, losing money in the long run. There are two benefits to them here: They're seeing demand increase for the permanent NX before it goes away, as well as reverting back to non-permanent NX, which is a very good way to generate revenue/ profits.

I feel bad for whoever thinks Nexon is 'dumb', this is very well-thought out if you ask me. :l

[quote=sumpump1203]I really dotn think people read this correctly. It clearly states that "Some new items will be available for permanent purchase later though." I think what they are going to do is discontinue the current items and add up to date "new" permas. I really dont see how to update the inviz items so maye they are talking about all the past items they ever had on perma status.[/quote]
Im guessing that they mean that they are going to have events where you can get new/different permanent nx outfits and the like, it can include existing clothing its just the option to choose permanent on all their clothing will be gone
