S8 should price all the Echo Appliances at 13 gems at this point so people can buy more.. Having gotten 1 of those Moon Festival appliances last year for 25 Gems and now it's only 13 gems is just a straight salt to the wound.. This is discouraging and I will never buy any Echo Appliance for 25 gems again.

Please make the standard price for Echo Appliances 13 Gems from this point on.

P.S. They're also missing the Festival Arch and Festival Counter from the goal.. Can Annira / Mod. check if this can be released so we get the whole set of U-items from the Sep-16 Harvest Moon Festival goal?

The past few days I've been seeing promos for a big sale coming up on February 5 in the other s8 games. Typically when this happens, it's across all s8 games so I wouldn't be surprised if we don't get a sale today but instead see a promo for an upcoming 'big sale.' Fingers crossed it's a good one!

EDIT

General Expanding Notes:
* You can expand using gems or coins
* You must purchase expansions, in order and one at a time.
EXAMPLE:

* You cannot expand from 7x9 to 9x12 regardless of which payment method you're employing
* First, you have to purchase the 8x10 expansion before moving on to purchase the 9x12

* At any time you can tap on the arrows around your board to access expansions

* Tapping the arrows will give you a pop up that shows you the next expansion available and list the two options for purchase
* If you tap 'Buy' on one of those options, the game will automatically deduct the currency from your game and expand your bakery

* When purchasing expansions with gems, the neighbor requirements are usually negated and the level requirements are lowered
* How it works using coins:

* Expansions in Market will be greyed out until you've advanced to the level required to access an expansion
* Once you've met the level requirement, the expansion will unlock in the market and now list the amount of neighbors you need
* After meeting the neighbor requirement, the expansion in the market will now list how many coins it costs to purchase said expansion
* Once you've met all the requirements, tapping on the expansion in the Market will automatically deduct the coins from your bank and enlarge your bakery

Yeah, I'm with you on that one. This is a real let down:

no new items
only 1 table
only 2 counters/chairs
no complete sets
Only a few box items listed with no complete set or first place items?
Certain V-day boxes weren't relisted
no wallpapers at all
New expansion not discounted
Echos are repeats
U-Decos only have one complete set but they didn't even relist both appliances from that release?
Usually they throw in a few non-holiday items for those who don't celebrate but not this time
Definitely a let down!

Guess I've played too long when there's not a single item in a sale that I need. Maybe if I was a newer player I'd be happier?

**mepylant** · 02-05-24, 04:14 PM

Well, since I didn’t have the sweetheart tables or chairs, heart tiles, heartsy counter or any of the floor decor, I’m happy with the sale. My bakery is pinks and reds with turquoise thrown in so I’ve been waiting on some pretty things to add. But yes, I can understand the disappointment with none of it being new for people who already had it all.

I think you need to have a Mod. reach out to the Dev's about these bullet points. I highly doubt they will come across this post anymore due to the format we're using for the weekly Sales thread. It became even more of a "hassle" for S8 employee to check player's comments/suggestions now.

I do think the old format of creating individual thread for each sale is much MORE easy to navigate and review for both players and S8 staffs, then we can include the corresponding links into this 2024 Bakery Story Sales Thread. Just a suggestion.

In addition I do want to point out though the "incomplete set" of items could've been human errors or negligence which can actually be rectified if we complain about it directly. Like how you reach out to Mod's pixie or someone before, they actually issue a quick fix and re-add the items in the same sale or an "Additional sale" following the actual sale, which we have all seen before.

-No SALE on new expansion is just less incentive for players to buy the expansion, considering the price is already astronomically high.

-We're definitely missing a lot of Set items which S8 NEVER done this in the past sales, this is just starting to happen recently because we're perpetuating it. Who can we contact about issue like this tbh, because this can't go on forever...
