      I've just noticed that under the upgrade tab on the buddyauth website that I have the option to upgrade my RB key to a 3 session key (from a 1 session); however, the upgrade price is 35 Euro.

      This makes upgrading a 1 session to a 3 session cost 20 euro more than just buying a 3-session key to start with (15+35 euro vs 30 euro). Is this an oversight that was made when setting the prices for the different keys?

      Looks like a marketing strategy to get you to buy the 3 keypackage right off the bat.

      It isn't that glaring, but the real question is why does upgrading to 3 keys cost more than buying 3 individual one month keys (if initial cost of the first key is not included in the 35 price tag).

      Actually, I just realized that that was what you meant instead and not comparing the 3-key package to buying them individually.
      In which case, yeah, that's a pretty big oversight. Good find.

      more than one character/account in ffxiv? Glutton for punishment eh? apart from 0 point to alts, one could argue RMT (regardless of how ugh) but due to said (ugh) the market is flat on its face. Distro's pay like 1 dollar per mil so unless your running 2 dozen or so your unlikely to break even, let alone turn a profit.

      Course im just making assumptions. dont mind me :p
