You need to bump them up by an hour , otherwise looks decent. i.e valiant was 7 pm gmt , horranth 8 pm gmt.

Looks like some good deals to be had. Sadly, I decided to look yesterday to see if my CCs were given to me yesterday. Mistake #1. Browsed the shop after finding out they were given to me. Mistake #2. Bought the "I have to have it now Armor Set"

If I knew they were going to be having these good of deals, especially regarding Treek, I would have woke up early and hit the store for a couple CC cards.

Oh well.

Those are the start times, Horranth just went up on sale and it's the 7pm GMT hour now.

The only two left on the list that interest me are the Carbonite Chamber and maybe the Character Rename, but they're going to have to be as cheap as the Valiant Armor to get me to buy.

My guess is that both the Eradicator armor and mask will be up for sale during the same hour, but that's just a hunch.
Yeah, right now the items don't add up, it is one hour too long.
For the Engine Reactants, they put two icons in the same spot. Maybe they didn't do the same for the Eradicator's set because the icons did not fit too well together, so they may very well be sold together.

I already bumped them up; are you sure that the list is incorrect? Because it is 7pm GMT now and the Horranth is on sale.

I'm sure it depends on their own internal research and not how much attention another game is getting on the forums. For example, WoW isn't doing anything today for ESO even though it is also a fantasy game. But they did a lot for when SWTOR launched.

GW2 was going for a different audience, mainly PvP and fans of the first game. Elder Scrolls shares many of the same target audience as Star Wars does. Because of that, I'm guessing BioWare made a decision to counter their launch. They won't do it for every game.

Otherwise, they would have made these great deals on the weekend when most people could access them. But they did it on ESO's launch day. And they're right for doing it.

Hehe.... you are what they would call.. A Model Customer.
