Somthing that happened is recently I bought the sonic hits collection off steam and it came with sonic cd so when I download and install spiral knights and found mail about sonic cd I was surprised untill I checked the auction section at the 2nd most expensive bid was Tails's Tails I was going crazy (I'm a big Tails fan) I wanted it so bad so when I checked this site it said 2012 which surprised me as well considering it was 2013 I was hoping I could get enough crowns before the time was up and right now it is still going i'm still earning.
Did you get something in the mail concerning your purchase, or was it just a thank you card?
And if you're new here, it might take a lot of time or money to get that accessory. They rotate though, so if you can't get it now, save up for the future!
