2.1 Patch Notes?

I'm sure the new Cartel features will be popular but am disappointed that the achievement system got only 1 fix seeing as I've lost count on the broken ones. Hopefully patch 2.2 will fix some of the old bugs and any of the new ones that will no doubt be 'born' with tomorrow's patch.

Fully agree with you on that. But it is what it is. And we still haven't seen what the CC costs are for the account wide unlocks, so it may not even be that big of deal. It may be worth the cost for players to not have to mail things back and forth from toon to toon.

You're talking apples and orange here. One is the purchase of new hairstyles....the other option is changing an existing character's hairstyle. If you unlock the new hairstyles, you don't pay again for the unlock. You can use them on any new character you create just like the other hairstyles. If you want to change your character's hairstyle, then that's a separate issue. Why would you get a free character re-customization for all of your characters just because you unlocked a few hairstyles?
There's really no reason they should be BOL....other than the Cartel Certificates, there's really nothing in the CM that is BOL. They should have been BOE from the beginning and someone just screwed up. There's no reason you should be allowed to pass those holostatues around to all of your characters...or use them and then sell them on the GTN. That's not consistent with the other Cartel items.
I'm sure the Collections system had something to do with it. They should have been BOE from the start though and they probably released that when they put together the Collections system and figured out that there was no need to duplicate those items when players could simply pass them among their characters.

I'm sure, no less than 400-500coins (if not 1000...) per item.

Until you find out the actual cost it's pointless and downright petty to conject and accuse Bioware of price gouging when you don't know what it is.

I should be ashamed?

Whew if those are the sorts of prices we can expect to see, I think I'll wait until we see some discounting.

Not ashamed, just slower to draw conclusions where there is no grounds to do so at this time.

Someone must hacked Andryah's account. I can't believe what I am reading.

I'm sorry, but this patch sickens me. I understand subscribers get a monthly allowance, but this kind of non-stop pimping of the cartel market pushes me (and I'm sure a few others) over the edge. I want to see real content that is integrated into the game, not bought off of an exchange.
