You can buy the salon styles from the Ambassador Cruise event in the beta wardrobe!

The price: fair considering the price of other redeemable hair.
How well this is going to function as an sp sink when the majority of the people who missed this event are new and broke as fuck: EH this is probably not gonna solve your problem.
Thanks though. I was on hiatus when this event happened and I've always wanted the Darkside male and Shadowglen female hair, so I'm not complaining. I paid way more than this for my Slann coupon when I bought it.

oh dAMN i've wanted those cruise styles for a while!! i came off of my hiatus literally right after the event ended, so i've been bummed about it.
thanks!! i don't think the prices are unfair, either. they were previously retired items that were exclusive to an event, so it's only proper they have their respective prices. : )

As someone who got them all during the event, I think the price is fine. I'm not a fan of retired items coming back at all, but if they do need to come back they should be steep.

To everyone complaining about the price: You are lucky to even have the chance to buy them!

I'm personally against bringing back retired things as I believe retired things are retired for a reason - if you've stuck it out and have them, good on you, but I see no reason why people who joined yesterday should be able to buy things that were released years ago. It makes things lose prestige and become less of a reward.

I know I'm absolutely tardy to the party, but I wanted to thank staff for bringing these styles back!
Seriously, some of them are some of my all time favorites. I can't wait to save up for these babies.

I had all of them except Centropolis. I thought Centropolis looked bad back then. Now, I realize It's my favorite of them all. So glad I got the chance to buy it again. Just wish it was the same price as it was before haha

great, they didnt buy the hair for super cheap during an event and now they have the chance to. there are so many things we can't buy/get anymore because you literally never bring them back, and you brought back the easiest to obtain (and keep) thing on the site. wtf

I'm going to take a look at making it easier to preview them tomorrow!

Valid criticism : People saying that for 10M, they better have a "try on" button. You're totally right.

Also

Quote:
The same people who complain everywhere that things are too expensive are complaining here as well. It's your right to complain, totally. But do understand that if things are expensive and take the money out of circulation like with the hair styles, that means people have less money to spend and the values of other things will go down.

Less money in circulation = prices go down because people can't afford the high prices any more.
So yeah it will take that some things are more expensive.

Plus: you can't have everything for free or low effort.
^this

There are things known as long-term goals. A CW is 25M-30M, right? That's at least two hairstyles, if not three.

It looks like you can only buy the one that's listed first...I was able to buy the first couple, but I don't want the next one in line and the buy button doesn't work for any of the others. Please fix... :)

I have these from the event, and then they were ... free, no? This price seems a bit steep for people who were just unlucky to not be at the event?!

Anne

I really like that and the price is reasonable, but PLEASE give us a 'Try on'-button. :/

jenny

The prices were discussed on forums anyone can put their word into. I believe it was decided to be 10 mil because that's roughly how much a Cash Shop hair costs, or something similar. Yes, it's expensive but I think it's completely fair. The hairs were things from a past event, so we're lucky they're being released at all. While I'm happy to have been here and was able to buy the hairs when they were 10k, I know if I had the chance to get past items / hairs / whatever from events I missed or wasn't on Subeta for, I'd love it.

tl;dr: you don't have to buy them, they didn't have to release them. If you don't want the next item (if there is one) that's released to be "highly" priced, give your input in the site feedback forums. (Y)

ChatLunatique

I'll chime in on the cry for a better preview option. I can make 10mil in a week if I put my mind to it and spend a little less on books and gourmand food, but I won't spend it without a better view of what I'm buying. (I figure there was likely a good reason I didn't buy the ones I'm missing, when I had the chance on the cruise)

I do also agree, while it may be "easy" to make 10mil it is a bit steep. Look at the prices they did for the peka-boo contest event. Those were a bit more...logical.

Yes, is there a way we could "preview" this first? I'd like to see what it would look like on my HA first.

I don't mind the price.. but seriously? I need a dang try button before I'm spending that much.
0

odduckOasis

Agreed, I'd rather be able to try the look out and then the 'save' button takes you to the purchase hairstyle page. The smaller icons do not do enough justice.

It'd be kinda cool if the other CS hairs could be purchased too... but alas- oh well. Could always make it a csc purchase option, but that might drive prices up further lol.

I will admit I had a little sticker shock at first seeing the price... But after thinking about it, it's really not that bad, especially since you can edit them in the Hair Salon... However, I will echo everyone else in saying that I'd really prefer to try them on my avatar before sinking that much money in to them... js

Also, I tried purchasing one (which was a long drawn out debate with myself cause I could only get one atm), and it wouldn't take my sP or give me the hairstyle... FIX THIS NAO PLEASE!!!

Pretty please? ;P
0

Sopheroo

The price is made for people to sink LOTS of money in the economy. So that things like CSC can go down quicker. Because if people have less SP on average, prices are going down on things such as CSC and other valuable items.

But, if people are okay with CSC being 25M per 500...
0

Lia

You can make 3/5 mils per day just by questing and doing games, I really don't see why people complain about the price tag..
But I'm not gonna spend 10 mils on hair I cannot preview on my avatar first, please add this feature /cries

Julia

I don't mind paying 10 mil but I'd like to be able to preview them on-site before buying.

stars_water

Ten MILLION sp and we can't even try them on? I mean I'll pay it, I'm pretty avid about collecting everything I can from events, but I'd love to see what they look like when they're actually on my avatar first so I can know where to put them on my priority list.

Also, it's pretty hard to miss all of those other hairstyles that aren't available for purchase yet, assuming they ever will be. I guess you could say I'm looking forward to the future of the hair salon~
0

Selene

Eh, 10mil for the cruise hairstyles is just too steep. I can understand the pekaboo ones being higher than the cruise ones (which, I can't see how much they would cost?), but the cruise ones should be much lower. Maybe more in the 1-2mil range.
0

Darkfae_635

I agree with those who have mentioned it would be nice to be able to preview them before dropping the sP on them, since you'll always be getting new users who weren't around for the event, and may never hear about things like Subeta Lodge or Subeta Wikia, etc. It'd be a lot more user friendly, though perhaps not coding friendly?
0

StarShadow

I'm just glad I got all the ones I wanted on the cruise. Passed on 3 of them but looking at these again I have no interest in getting them now either. This is great for people who weren't here for the cruise or missed 1 they wanted.
0

Angst

Honestly, 10 million for a hair salon style doesn't seem unreasonable. I missed the event because I've only been on here for like a year or two, and 10 million sp is a lot, but if it's for a salon style then that seems fair since hair coupons go for around that amount. It's something you need to save for, but if you do quests and play games it really shouldn't take long.

4real though, I play very casually, I only make sp about ten days out of every month and it's almost exclusively from quests because I'm awful at everything else. But I can still afford a gold account medal every month no problem. It's not that hard. This is an equal opportunity game. Everyone puts the roughly same amount of effort into getting their sp (or cash money for CSC). Just do some quests and earn some sp, you'll be there in no time :)
0

Bathory

I dont see 10mil as being outrageous because look at it like it was a coupon. The cash shop coupons are around 250csc right? So the 10mil is actually cheaper than the 250csc and it still helps retain the worth of the hairstyle.

While this is lovely, because a lot of people didn't have a chance to participate in the cruise. But 10 mil?

Dunno why some people are saying it's expensive for one slot? Yeah sure MKBs can give you 2-3 but you can also buy plenty and just get /1/ slot. And that's a 150k gamble. 100k is the guarantee. It's also an sP sink don't forget. Most of the time those aren't always cheap.

I was gonna be kinda upset, but since they were retired and not able to get any other way, I'm happy with the price tag on these. A+
Though I'll echo the 'please don't put the old zombie skins'... but if you put them, put them at a price like this? +10mil per year or something. Idk. I feel it'd only be fair to ppl who kept their oldie skins. [And I am forever kickin' myself for getting rid of my first year skin.]

Nice styles. Not worth 10mil to me personally. It's nice to see these available though

Great idea, had actually taken a hiatus during the cruise event due to conventions and work so I missed most of the event stuff. Not that I want to pay ten mil for them now but the option is there at least.

Hm... there is nothing there that I really love enough that I would spend 10mil SP.
I really love the idea and I really love that the salon is fixed for the beta wardrobe. I so love the fact that the Beta wardrobe is as glorious as it is and am so excited to keep seeing it get better.

Nice of you to offer them again, I guess

I could've visited the salon or the forums, but this was back before I had a good computer and was using my kindle to navigate. Lots of lag and downtime meant pages were broken for me especially on mobile, which meant those pages that would've been nice to get to, I couldn't

Again though, I won't miss what I never had.

There was a complete plot guide that spelled out where to buy the hair styles, in addition to the fact you could have simply made a topic in the forums, or even googled it.

From what I remember, you simply visited the Salon on the Ship.

IMO I feel the price if done fairly. I was here during the Counselor Cruise and didn't purchase any of the wigs then. So I'm glad it's available to us once again, even in spice of not being able to remove the from our wardrobe. Great job ~ :) ~

I was new at the time and missed out on this event so I'm really excited the hairstyles are back c: Though I really wish there was some way to preview them before I drop 10m on something I end up not being able to use. Really missing arvee right about now.
0

Malibu

I would be able to understand the comparison people are making between these hairstyles and hair coupons better if the hairstyles had originally cost the same price as a hair coupon. But since they were considerably cheaper originally, it's a bit harder to swallow.

I know that since they were retired and there wasn't any real intention to bring them back, that needs to be reflected, but maybe somewhere in the middle, at 5 mil a pop? I might not be doing justice to it there, but this has left me scratching my head a little.
0

Gunnarr

Thank you so much for bringing these back! I wasn't a member during the original event, and I've been wanting several of these style since I found out about them! I hope these are available permanently, and not as a limited-time-only thing. :D

The price seems a lot, but it's true that other redeemable wigs are usually around the same price. I missed the cruise event, so I'm really excited about these being available now! :)

Well, since they (the hair previews) don't show up in the beta wardrobe, I hunted them down in the Subeta Wiki. Not bad; I'll think about buying one when I actually have enough to afford it.

0

Ewok

I don't get why people make such a drama over 10mil. How is it different from any other hair coupon? Those are at the current ratio around 12.5mil.

Or "it used to be 10k" if they had stayed retired you wouldn't have had them at all. Not for 10k but not for 10mil either.

To be honest, I am kind of surprised these were brought back. It makes me wonder what other retro stuff is going to reappear.

Nice to see some of the suggestions implemented already. It doesn't seem to be working properly right now as I can't see any of the hairstyles on that page and I already have all the Cruise styles from the plot. I'll check back later.

10mil isn't an outrageous price considering that the styles were retired prior. The people who were around then got the advantage of purchasing them for a fraction of the price. 10mil is about the cost of a redeemable wig from the CS as well.

Now give me buyable god weapons and I'll give you all my sp ;)

@StarShadow
Probably because you haven't redeemed those styles yet. I believe they're showing up there now as a reference for people to see what other styles are available, but as of yet, must be redeemed for even a an actual preview?

Okay, so I visited the sp sink thread? All i have to say now is please DO not make old zombie skins available to buy like a bunch of users are suggesting. It takes away the special factor of them!

marvel

It's just a glitch or something that's not letting me see what the styles look like, right? Because while I'll definitely splurge on any of the styles I actually want, I'm not going to spend it and then find out I don't even want the hair :/

I even tried googling to see if there were pictures somewhere that I could look at instead, but couldn't find anything...

I've never tried the salon in the beta wardrobe (which I hate), so this is the 1st time I have looked at it. Can't figure out why there are about 100 styles that show up as "locked" and it won't let me preview them.

dragonrider88

I think you are sP sinking the wrong people. The newer players don't have these styles because they weren't around for them. So charging this much is something intimidating to these people because they don't have a huge bank like older players do.
On the flip side, older players with a large hoard of sP do not need this because they WERE around for this event, so they're not going to bother spending their sP on this.
0

Jive

@Wolf_Spirit
CS Boutique Wigs go for 250 CSC, which is currently 12,399,000 sP for the lowest in SS. So they are not, in fact, charging more for the Counselor Cruise Wigs.

Also, considering (I believe) they hadn't intended on having these wigs available again, I think bringing them back at 10M is a fair price. One I'm happy to pay since I missed most of the Cruise Event.
0

Silvanesti

@Introvert If you think about it, at 3.6 mil per 100 CSC, 250 CSC would've been about 9 mil, so 10 mil is very reasonable. Since I doubt CSC was intended to be worth 5 mil per 100. Also, that's why they call it a sP sink so that sP can be spent raising the value of sP and thus bringing down the value of CSC.

@Wolf_Spirit, actually it is fair, since their value has clearly gone up since the cruise, and it balances out bringing it back for players who missed out on it. Again, that's why it was suggested in the sP sink suggestion thread, because the site wants to get back some sP so the value of sP will go back up some. I personally missed out on these events and I never would have had the chance at getting these items, and while it does take a super long time to get sP up to 10 millions, if it's a permanent fixture then it's something that in time you can buy all.

10 mill?!? When each style was only 10k (or 100k I can't remember exactly) during the cruise? I appreciate the fact that they've been brought back for those that missed them but charging each player such an extreme amount for each style isn't fair at all.

Too bad I can't see them :c

I guess you'll be doing this with the other wigs as well? I really hope you price them at more than 10mil, considering the ones in the cash shop are at 250CSC, and I've be super peeved if someone got them cheaper just because they waited >.>

nice! sadly i dont have 10mil sp lmfao. kinda wish the 2.5 mil redeemable ones would allow us to chose which we want instead of having one single one available and go in order (at least I'm assuming that's what it does since I've neither bought the one available or redeemed anything bc i basically never have csc in order to buy them anyway) just like the 10 mil ones have them all available at once. :s
