Picked up the Science boosters for our 2 accounts.

How about the rest of you?

I already own all the boosters I'm interested in.

Nope. I have all of them except the Party Pack and that one didn't go half price.

Just picked up Mac pack for my account.

I'm trying to decide whether to bother with ordering the GR box from Best Buy for my husband's rarely played account. Their site states that it is back-ordered with a delivery date of 2-3 weeks. By that time, I may be able to pick up a box somewhere as stores clear their shelves for year-end inventory.

Trying to decide if any characters I have or might have in the future (I can see into it) will be wanting the wedding pack.

Bought all the others, though.

Actions speak louder than Vets.

I bought the wedding pack. Never felt it was worth the original price, but I bought it to encourage future price cuts.

I *might* consider the party pack if it's 50% off the future. Its the only pack I haven't purchased. I still won't touch the buy-able jet pack. I don't like the idea of buying consumables in video games.

Same here.

I was under the assumption that everything in the store would be discounted today & was disappointed to find only select items half off.

If any Booster Pack needed the discount, it's the Party Pack.

Oh well, looks like I'm skipping it again.

Was hoping the Origins pack would be half off, but no such luck. It's the only one I don't yet have.

I picked up the Mac/Valkyrie pack for my account, and the Wedding pack for my boyfriend's account. We now both have all the packs except for the Party Pack, which I don't anticipate getting unless/until it goes on sale sometime.

Picked up Science Pack and would have picked up the Natural Pack if it was on sale. Too bad it wasn't

The Best Buy stores (at least around here) were selling the GR Complete Collection for 9.99. So you might be able to get it without buying them online (and today).

I'm a day one purchaser of all of the boosters.

Really awesome of them to have the sale though! Congrats to you all on your cheaply bought packs!

I have some of these. The half price option is nice but some of these aren't even worth half price and are more like cash grabs. The Party Pack is the biggest rip-off and makes me think Cryptic thoughts. The Science pack has awful costume pieces - very lacking and what you get is weak and not too superhero/scientific. I thought the Mac pack and the GvE packs were solid. Most packs have something worth getting but I can't say they are of acceptable quality. To me, some of these look like attempts to get some quick cash to deal with budget issues.

I think it's coz the Origins and Party pack are the most recent... maybe the next time they have the sale, they'll get the half price cost.

As for me, I already own all the booster packs. All in the name of filming...

Picked up the Cyborg and Good vs Evil packs. Wanted the Party Pack, but no cigar I'm afraid. Gonna have to wait 'til next Cyber Monday, I guess.

It would be even more impressive if the NcSoft store allowed you buy all the packs you wanted. Hey guys, I"M TRYING TO GIVE YOU MY MONEY!

So yeah, not so much

"Can play" is not a binary. It's a float.
There are some pretty low values of "can play" out there.
