Alegarten!
Za sun is setting and za Alegarten celebration has begun! I've opened up The Brewery once again, but there are no handouts this year my children, ohh noo noo. After graciously giving avay vell over 6 million beers, vee simply cannot afford that business model any longer. Three shops for za price of one! Food Haus, Geschenkboutique, and Gute Ale vill bee open during their regular business hours, 10 hours each per day. From 5am-6am I've got to close the ol' Brewery down to scrape off your barf from my upholstery. Orders vill take five minutes to complete, ve vant you to have the freshest item possible! The shop vill be open until vell past dinner time on October 6th. Ve can't afford to keep all of this stock here every year, so be sure to load up on any of the older items you may need in the future, who knows vat ve'll still have next year!
You are more than velcome to thank me for my services by extending a generous offer! Be varned, it takes an awful lot to get me even a bit tipsy these days, but you can certainly try! I vill drink anything vith the vord "beer" in it, but none of that vimpy "root" variety!

Most of these items were in the Holiday Shop normally, I'm a bit perplexed as to why they were moved into a special shop and the prices jacked up to ridiculous amounts.

I wish the beer shop and the clothing shop would switch times x.x I don't want any beer and I'm never on for the clothing.

Phayom, there are wearables, but they are only available for a specific time in the day. Not sure what time they start stocking in the shop, but they stop stocking at 4:00 PM Subeta Time (or EST).
I wish that they'd lower the time or put all of the items in the shop for the entire day for the last 2 days on Saturday and Sunday though. So many clothing items I need and no time to be able to get them due to working. :-(

Great that means there's no way for the super rare stuff to become more affordable and all the prices are just going to go up. Not fun.

Iiiiiiiiii... thought the beer goggles were a joke about the government. (Like how it's being run by drunk "elephants" or something..) Until I realized it was Alegerten, now I'm pretty sure they're not. Anyway, I love them, the elephant art is so pleasing, with the outlines and all.. I can't really explain..

Is this shop new? I don't remember it from last year.
I love whoever created this system. The pricing and availability is perfect. Great way to make old items available while still retaining their value.

We aren't changing prices of beer items. The original plan was just free beer, but you guys aren't great at not inflating things during events XD so we made it more broad. There isn't a way to use them up and guarenteeing they don't get stupid expensive (which is not the idea). Specifically made it so it was easy to turn yours in if you had them, but cheap to buy something if you didn't.

the fact that it's now cheaper to use other items than the free beer kind of kills the whole "all free beer must be gone" that's been going on lately. i lol on your expense. but that's okay. you tried. i will, however, be quite upset if any of the cheaper items' prices are changes because of this, cos that'd just be a bratty as hell move to do *after* the shop's been launched.

While it's nice to have all of the holiday items available to buy for reasonable prices, this just takes all the fun out of the holiday as far as I'm concerned. I'm not a huge restocker, but I loved trying to vend for the new items. And there's nothing like the feeling of excitement of snagging something really rare from the holiday shop when I did feel like restocking. The rarer items were worth working for. If you take the challenge out of the event, you're also taking away my reason for participating. This way of doing things may be more fair overall, but it's also very boring.

I guess the only thing I find to be a bummer, not just for this event but all the recent ones, is that the holiday shop has become useless. Now we can't fight for items, or vend items, or use the mystery box. Even though I really like the setup for Alegarten, I kinda liked the holiday restocking...

This looks like another holiday/event I have to sit out of. I'm just not willing to shell out all my sp for this stuff, and as far as I know Alegarten doesn't have much besides the items to it. First the Reading Drive, then I didn't get to restock Keelhauliday which I guess is my own fault since my computer isn't the newest or the fastest(though I did do the jeweller's mini plot which I was happy with) and now Alegarten. Needing to have tons of disposable sp for some of these events is really starting to make me unhappy, I hope Morostide doesn't end up the same way.

It's not all cost... just buying stuff out of a shop with sP... you're not actually doing anything for the Holiday. It's ok for some holidays, but certainly not a direction I'd like to see all of them go in. Even with Skitters there is other stuff going on (with Candy Hearts and such). Is it fairly mindless to get tokens/hearts/etc? Yeah. But it still feels (slightly) more fun than being told to write a check and calling it a holiday.

I would've preferred to restock, but this isn't a bad set up. I guess the prices even out compared to old Super Rare holiday restockables that ended up being unbuyable or nearly so.

Restocking is one of my favorite ways to make sp on site. It's fun and challenging and was a great sp source.
I'm pretty bummed that between quests giving out so many super rares and the changes in holiday-related shops it is becoming worthless.
Definitely siding with Lexian on this one; the changes are not something I like and will make me spend less time here and thus less money.

I'm really happy with the shop setup! I am so, so, SO relieved that I don't have to fight to restock the items. Keel Hauliday proved that my computer just isn't cut out for that, so it's really awesome to actually be able to get the items that I want this time. Speaking of which, the items are gooorgeous. I can't wait to see Geschenkboutique!
As for the prices, I think they're fair. Sure, some items are pretty steep, but that gives you something to work towards in place of fighting to restock. There's a good balance between cheap items and expensive ones, and just about everything is cheaper this way than in the user shops (some by veeery drastic amounts). I definitely prefer it this way.

Also I don't really see a problem with the prices of the foods. Yeah, some of them are pretty steep, but I feel like it can't be more expensive than what you would pay for some items in the libertine lounge (if you took the sP value of the trinkets that is). I guess the only difference is that you buy items from the lounge with the tokens that are just handed to you for dancing, while here aren't handed beer tokens or something. But regardless, I think the values match up to what we would pay for other event shop foods.

I'm so glad this is shop that is constantly stocked! I hated (and rarely bothered) fighting people for items when it was a normal shop. Try as I might I'm no good at restocking and it's always just been frustrating to me. I have the opportunity now to get everything I wanted without having to camp out in a shop for hours and hope the item I want both restocks and I'm able to grab it. Yay!
Yes some of the items are a bit pricey, but not outrageously so. There are plenty of really cheap items in there too. I'd rather pay 300k for something then several million.
Also a couple days of some of the new games will net you 300k fairly easily. Or questing. Cause really, 300k for an item really isn't that much.

"MUCH more expensive if you were someone who was never going to buy from user shops"
I get that they're cheaper in user shops. I was never going to pay 15mil for them. Probably never going to pay 300k either, though. They were something I prefered the chance to get lucky and get since they're tangentially applicable to my gallery.
Just sucks to loose all of that opportunity in one swoop. Feels like slightly more balance could have been found (like say, a rare chance to get elsewhere/as a purchase addition/something).

The expensive items are either new or were literally millions in user shops. I priced every single item in shops and priced from there. Everything (save the new items and a few items that were like 999sp) is cheaper than it is in user shops. Some by tens of millions.

K good, I thought they were all good shops.
The prices aren't completely terrible, but it does take any chance at savings out of the equation, which makes the whole prospect much MUCH more expensive if you were someone who was never going to buy from user shops.... it's a plus and a minus, all in one. I do think some of the prices could stand to come down, or that the overly expensive items should maybe be otherwise integrated (a chance to get elsewhere, or something, maybe).

JUST A NOTE: We don't expect the lag that is happening right now to continue all night / through the event. We have people purchasing free beer / other low priced items from user shops at a INSANE rate right now, which means there isn't a ton we can do to combat it :(

PS: I have always enjoyed MBing my way to free holiday items, however that IPA and one of those strudels have been sitting on my wishlist for a solid year because I was NOT interested in paying 6 million+ for just a single food to feed to my baby (if it was for a TC, probably-- but I'd just procrastinate about it like I did with the IPA because "I'll just get it next year").
I think the prices are reasonable tbh, most of the item prices are on par with skitters, for example, outside of the really rare items that aren't new. Yeah 300k for a food seems highish, but it sure beats the hell out of 6 million. It also beats the hell out of having to do Pete Quests just to get a chance at one of these items, or a plot or something.
I like this a lot more. I can buy what I want and destroy free beers! As long as the site stays living, I very much appreciate this ♥️!

I like the shop Idea, but it makes it hard for people who actually work in the morning. I can also see fighting like mad for wears being even worse the Freyalise Trading Co.

And the RS's were late at night, and still got cleaned out so fast I got nothing..... sighs. The changes to shops and such are good, makes for interest... I am curious what plot's gonna occur. But, truth to tell I am not really interested in the food section, Beers for the challenge sure, entertaining anyway. But I collect wears. I wish that one was separate. I know. I am likely whining a bit. I just always feel short changed after Keelhauliday....:/
