Postponing Black Friday Sale
For those that asked, we will not be bringing back the CW pawn shop this month. That’ll be a Luminaire treat. ;)

It's BlackFriday Sale in the cash shop today as it is the 24th so I've bought csc realising too late that may be it isn't the sales day today.....
I hope that csc isn't going to be in the sale after I have bought it I keep looking around the shop I can't see obvious sale items is there a sale today?
It was advertised to be on the 24th?
I am kicking myself now :(

How long with the sale last? Because I'm leaving tomorrow and I won't be around a computer until Sunday night.

@Nova: There won't be a bonus CSC weekend this month. I do believe Amber mentioned in the last bonus weekend news post last month (or it was mentioned at the bottom of the news post).

What's with all this understanding in the userbase? No whining? No tears? I feel so alone... Do you know how hot my pockets my legs are now that all this CSC has burnt through my pockets? xD No seriously thanks for all of this. Also thank you for a final answer on the CWs in the pawn shop and working. The not knowing has been so hard. I'm super excited that we'll have a bonus weekend before then, so there is still a chance to dive into there for gifts (since I'm totally just going to blow all my saved CSC on the cash shop now).

Wise choice to postpone BF! We'll have Black Saturday trending just you wait and see! :) We're a patient lot anyway (for the most part) :P This is definitely the way to go. Also, YAY, for the CW Pawn Shop during Luminaire!

Thank you. Have there been any other updates from staff about the ongoing issues? It seems like everything is broken and I haven't seen any recent news.

Dang it, I understand their reasoning, but I was looking forward to perusing the cash shop on my last day off. Starting Saturday I work the next 7 days, so I'll just have to squeeze a bit of time in each day I guess. Oh well, I'll survive, I guess It's better than losing an expensive item. (Already had that happen to me once this week, had to put in a ticket but it was resolved very quickly so it's all good).

This is good news. Thanks, staff, for doing your best to make sure everything will go well during the sale. ^_^ Hopefully everything will have cleared up soon.

@CrazyBirdLady I had the contents of a gift box poof away after I opened it! It was resolved quickly though.
@jamew If you don't want a CW any more, you can sell it for CSC instead of SP. But if you need CSC super fast, or the item's been in your shop for 6 months and you're tired of rechecking the prices, you can sell it to the pawnshop. You won't get as much CSC as you would get selling it through a shop, but you will definitely get some CSC right now. I don't know why the CW pawnshop is only open once or twice (max) a year, but when it opens, you can get all the CWs that people have sold to the pawn shop at dirt cheap prices.
Occasionally some very rare CWs show up in the pawn shop, and if you are a recent member (I joined in 2017) you can have a chance to buy things that were only sold to the general public before you joined.
Sometimes private items show up in the pawn shop; this is upsetting to many people because when it comes to personal, private gift releases, someone has broken their word. Whatever your stance on whether people should be able to set conditions on what you do with things you paid for, I think we can all agree that breaking your word to someone sucks.
But there are many items that aren't "private" because they were personal. They were "exclusive" to groups that no longer exist on the site and cannot be joined, or they were created for events that happened years and years ago. If one of those is on your wishlist, there's a chance you might find it.

OK so we will have Black Saturday instead. That's fine since I have to work on Friday any way. Thanks for letting us know.

Ah man, I got a surprise half-day off today and I was looking forward to having time to spend on the BFS. I hope the issues aren't too tough to tackle! Thanks for keeping at it staff!

I think opening the Pawn Shop during Luminaire is way better than having it during the Black Friday sale. I'll be able to buy more CSC/items with them spaced out, especially this year since I didn't have any extra money during the October bonus weekend. I wouldn't mind this being a continued trend.

Wise choice to get the site fixed and running smooth. It would be horrible to try and move a super cool Cash Shop item to wardrobe, and it it poof away. Thanks

While I'm sad I can't start getting my BF items now I'm also happy you're waiting for better stability. (tbh I was kinda surprised fireside started with all this going on lol)

I'm kind of happy cw pawn shop will have its own date. ;O; there's already so many goodies and cw pawn is already priced discounted anyway so it can be brought back really whenever!

@Amber
does that mean CW Pawn will be opened after cash shop bonus weekend?
I am really looking forward to this, since my friends all seem to have a expensive taste they share with a lot of others...
Since luminaire starts the 1st
and goes on for like 25 wonderful days
and I really want to make sure I have enough CSC to get a ton of stuff from the CW pawn
and THANKS for the inofrmation!

I feel a lot happier now it's being postponed. Is there any reason why it should have to end on the 30th even though it will be late starting?

I appreciate y'all acknowledging the issues and user concerns about the sale starting and have postponed it. Hopefully everything can get sorted by Friday. I'd rather have to wait on the sale than avoid participating because of the errors making the risk not worth it.
Also excited to know pawn will be making a Lumi appearance!

I think this is a great idea, but I hope you will extend the sale since it was postponed so we have the full 10 days. Not knowing everything that will come back, it can be difficult to know in advance how much csc to set aside, particularly with CW shops going on sale (and CW usershops dropping prices) ad new releases of CWs especially for the "holiday".

Alright! This is fine. :thumbsup:
I love this new arrangement for CW pawn shop. Cannot wait! :heart:

Thank you! I think that is a good decision. Thank you for all you are doing to fix things. It’s tough when there is a holiday this week which brings more people online and keeps you all too busy to enjoy it too. *group hug!*

This sounds like the wise choice to make. Will the sale be extended? Or will it still end on Nov. 30th?

No problem! Can't wait :)
Super happy that Pawn Shop is coming back and also super happy that it's not coming for Black Friday. xD I have so much I want to buy already.

Thanks for the heads up!
NGL, a postponed Black Friday Sale means maybe I'll get a chance to splurge a bit bc I won't be worried about funds with relation to the shenans that are In Person BF Sales, lol.

I think this is a very wise choice, all things considered.
Here's to hoping everything is running smoothly by then c:
