Preordering is usually the most expensive route to go.
You know this.
Retail stores having sales, sometimes even have price variances locally.
You know this.
IF SOMETHING DID NOT SELL ENOUGH FOR INITIAL EXPECTATIONS, items are then put up for a cheaper price.
You know this.
This is just more useless whining by self-entitled game players who know nothing about how the world of retail sales actually works and are demanding CCP follow some business killing retail model that does not exist.
You know this.

Actually, they took it by extortion, but we understand the sentiment.

How is that in their best interest exactly. You are just saying unsubstantiated whining nonsense.

Since when is a 33% Sale excessive ? Also, isn't this product's sheer existence a gesture towards customer loyalty ?
Wow folks. We have a 21st Century Self-Entitled Consumer with no clue as to how retail operates at all.
