For me, I buy every time it’s 75% off. They haven’t seemed to catch on that I’ve done this literally every time for the past decade given I’ve only been offered it less than 10 times. The base plat prices are highway robbery and I would never buy at that level. Anyway, what discount do you wait for in order to buy? How often do you get discounts?

    Anything less than 50% is a joke in my opinion, and even 50% is a hard sell, but I have used it for one of the smaller bundles a few times over the years. I recently got a 60% which I did not know existed which I did use for one of the middle bundles.

    Pretty much every time I get a 75% I buy the top bundle, but it’s not really happened in a long time ^hint hint de, i want to give you money so please give 75%^.

    I’m on PS and we get 25%, 50%, or 75% discount off our next purchase that’s not Tennogen or a bundle. I ignore the 25% one but the rest is always used for some skin or PITA to get thing.

    I’ll get the biggest package for 75% discounts, and might get the 5$ packs when I get 20% discounts if I need some extra plat to keep going. Haven’t seen a 75% in a long time though

      Same here. I spend $5 every now and again until 75% comes around, but I’ve never bought platinum at the base price.

    100% as I probably will never need more platinum ever.

    I’m sitting on a stockpile of relic parts and I can just… sell some off should I need some.

    I never bought plat when I played a few years ago, and made all my plat through farming and trading vaulted primes. About a month before I quit though, I felt guilty for getting 500 hours out of the game for completely free, and threw them $10 on a 75% plat discount.

    Not being into cosmetics, I’m not even sure I’d buy at 75%. I’ve never seen one in 300 login days. It takes about 20 minutes to farm enough plat to buy a potato or some forma, and honestly that’s about all I buy these days.

    I should probably figure out a way to kick DE a few bucks. I did buy plat once at 50% off to get myself off the ground.

    I either get a 75% off, or I get a Prime Access bundle for a frame I like. No other options.
