Hey everyone!

 

Starting at 4PM CDT (9PM GMT) today, the first Grand Acquisitions Pack will be available on the Cartel Market for a limited time.

 

The Grand Acquisitions Pack features a selection of items from the Cartel, Contraband, and Bounty Shipments, and each pack contains:

• One Reputation item, for either the Contraband Resale Corporation or the Bounty Supply Company.
  
• One Rare bonus item with a chance of a Super Rare.
  
• One Rare complete armor set with a chance of a Super Rare.
  

 

The Packs cost 900 Cartel Coins (10% off!) and will only be available until 11AM (4PM GMT) on Monday, April 14th, so make sure you pick up a pack soon!

Tait, do we have a list of this selection of items ?

This limited edition pack seems pretty cool. Is there any chance there will be a tab in packs for us to see what's in the pack, or will the descriptions for certain items be updated to show they come from the pack?

Oh nice, I might just grab one!

I'm going to guess it will be the best of the best... Like Revan's Gear, Hoverchairs, ETC for the super rares.

Yeesh, I knew these were going to be a limited time deal, but I didn't realize they were talking about the span of a long weekend. Oh well, guess I'll be passing this time around.

This is cool, finally be able to get the complete Revan set at a sain price (hopefully!).

I have brought a few of these packs an gotten some rare and very rare things like a hedonist mount an a nebula blaster but in 3 of the packs i got a republic banner a blue dye module and an emote all of which are very common even now with that banner only worth a few hundred credits so not all the rare items possible in these packs are actually rare unfortunately despite the tool tip saying rare bonus item (i suppose it depends on how you are defining an item as rare)

aside from that little issue thanks for these packs

adding info

Will have to pass on these since I can't get any Coins this weekend.

With my luck, it'll be something I already have in collections. :-o

Ugh.. Two troublemaker packs that I don't need, but no Revan set that I DO need. *bangs head on keyboard*

Seriously... I got the Stylish Dancer 3 piece set?

 

Screw you Bioware... I was expecting ARMOR not ****** tassles.

Well two crates and two interesting sets... One was Mira's armor set. Which was nice to get. The other had Thul loyalist set with purple pink dye.

Tait, do we have a list of this selection of items ?

 

The list is everything from the first 3 shipments of packs.....there you go: http://dulfy.net/2013/02/04/swtor-cartel-market-pack-list/

Anyone know if one-piece armor sets like the Rascal's Toothpick of the Efficiency Scanners count as a potential armor "set" or if they are only put in as the Bonus Item slot?

I expect that if I would buy such a pack, I'd get only a cheap armor set like the Thul set or any set which you could get for a total of 25k at some point. Everyone thinking that BW will give us the full Revan set for 900 CC must be out of his/her mind. If that set is really included, then the RNG will be so low that even a hypercrate of FGS packs wouldn't be enough. (My guess.)

 

As intriguing as this set sounds, I think I pass this time.

Does that mean you have a chance to win the cathar Honor sword?

I believe that it was direct purchase item, and I wouldn't think it would end up in these packs.

Really hope this shows up again from time to time. Limited time items are my least favorite thing about the cartel market. Even for things manage to get.

SO if this is new and limited time only how the hell can it be 10% off if it's never been for sale AT ALL at this "normal" price. I call ******** illegal sales tactics

It was in the original Contraband packs.

Can you prove it's illegal?

It was in the original Contraband packs.

 

So since it from an old pack, then there is a chance I can get the cathar sword?

Can you prove it's illegal?

 

Actually it is. In certain states anyway. New York state comes to mind.

 

I use to work for a company that sold suits at 70 % off! Original price 800 dollars! What a deal!!

 

Well we never once sold a suit for 800 dollars and got sued over it. It's like those businesses that have a "Going out of business sale" sign above their door. Two years later the business and the sign are still there.

 

Doesn't bother me that they do that though just thought I'd comment.

Anyone know if one-piece armor sets like the Rascal's Toothpick of the Efficiency Scanners count as a potential armor "set" or if they are only put in as the Bonus Item slot?

 

I got one of those, I think it counts as the super rare. I opened 4 packs and got 4 sets of armor, the eficiency scanner, one of those skiff speeders and some other junk (rep items and boosts).

Got the bee ess dancer's set... I promptly unsubscribed... Tired of the waste of creds... That is RP CLOTHES... NOT ARMOR.
