No no no 250K for $500
It's true that people would buy it. However, the gem/money ratio is higher than the $99.99 pack, meaning that SC would make less money if they added this.
i like how you roll 99
Due to limitations and exploitation of other apps, most apps have seemed to stay restricted at max payment within said app at $99.99, think it was "Smurfs Villiage" that caused the office of fair trading to look into IAP, yes we know people would buy them, but I think Apple restricted the highest IAP.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, on this, but I know It was being looked into a while back.
This is likely incorrect. The gem / money ratio should decrease as prices get higher so that consumers feel like they are getting better value. Additionally, creating this category creates a new "top of the line sale", which has actually been shown to get more people to buy the second-best option, in this case, the $99.99, one. It's just like how restaurants have a few wines that are exorbitantly priced on their wine list, driving people to buy the next-to-most-expensive wine, when in fact the absolute price of the bottle they are buying is also exorbitantly high.

Creating this could actually drive profits up.
Huh. Well, I stand corrected.:)
Probably would not get into the game.
Replies it takes to get noticed? Some real good thoughts above!
Yes, I think I remember hearing something about this previously.Quote:
