Gem discount
Like on every update to start off it can we get a discount on gems.Or like every month can we get like a 25or50% discount.
people buying gems is how supercell gets money, discount on gems means less money for supercell, which means less resources for them to make new updates!
That is not how discounts work... Why do you think companies lower prices? To bring in MORE money... Lowering prices increases the number of people buying their products which = more money. Everyone is happy. Take an economics course before leaving a cynical comment like yours.Quote:

It depends on how large the discount is and how strongly customers react whether or not you see more revenue. You are correct in saying there would likely be more sales, but it's not necessarily true that this would actually benefit SC. I would say SC has weighed the options here and probably has a good sense of what would really happen if they were to do this.Quote:

If it was 5 people it would be about 8 or 9 with the discount. 3 dollars would sell to a lot more people. I am starting to think that the workers of Supercell are somewhat stingy.Quote:

If SC thought they could pull in more money with a sale or that a different pricing scheme would be more profitable, they would do it.
Clearly they don't. So everyone, zip up and go home.

By the way, in my head I read all your posts in the voice of Judge Judy.
Perhaps its time to use Morgan Freeman as your avatar?
