Thank you gods of Spiral Knights (aka developers, programmers, designers, publishers,...[*]).

Thank you very much. I think this sale is a great idea.

If you had made a promo with boxes, a player might have gotten half of what I blew on this, for 1 item.

Now YOU get all the Energy I blew, a PayToPlay player (I hope) got my crowns for more of their Energy, and I have a big pile of shiny new stuff (meant for my own use), instead of a somewhat big pile of Crowns and Energy.
(Plus Ultimate Catalysts and the needed Elite Orb I failed to find.)

/me is happy.

To the complainers: I don't think any part of the game 'market' is meant to make players rich.

I never wanted this stuff because it's rare, but because I like how it looks. I like shiny stuff on other players too. (And the most important thing about any costume, IMO, is that it makes the wearer happy.)

[*] Never to forget the Game Masters, ever friendly and helpful. (And oh so intimidating - sorry, power intimidates me, I know you're nice!) I thank you for your hard work too. I just don't know how much you had to do with this sale. :)
