There's no way to pay for less than $5 worth of points, right?

nope, the min amount is $5 worth, but at least you can save them for future stuff if you have leftovers
Points can only be bought in increments of $5, $20, $50 and $100, iirc.
Darn, that's what I thought, but I was hoping I was wrong.
Thanks though, guys.

For the smell of it:
In the basic retail world, $5 is the minimum for credit/debit transactions and has something to do with the fees that have to be paid per transaction by the company.

Not that she needs it, but I'll back up Agge on this. I work in the industry, and not only hasn't this been true for a long time, with the recent Dodd-Frank legislation, interchange income has been turned on its head, so all bets are off now.|

$5 is just a nice low "round" number price point that they set -- I doubt there's any deep, mystical significance to the number (other companies use similar ones).

Dunno when they went up, but 2 char slots are currently on sale for 400 points, so I think that solves your dilema.

Ah, cool. Must be this week's sale? When I tried right before posting, I could only get one slot for 480.|

Thanks for reading this topic, Ghost Falcon.

Whoa, who what now? I need to check this when I get home. The last time they put them on sale (well before Freedom launch), I bought 10. In hindsight, I wished I had bought more.

Yep, as of this morning, character slots are half price: 240 for one, 400 for two, 800 for 5 for the next week.

I was comparing it more to the absolute basline comparison to say mom-n-pop stores I've been to around here (corps are dif as they can afford it), but since I don't actively track such things I wasn't aware of the Dodd-Frank thing. There's been so much 'change' going on during our lovely 'everybody's broke' period that it's hard to make heads or tails of anything. :-p

Basically, see as above. I want to grab an extra server slot for my second account, which has 400 points stored, but don't really have anything else I want to do with 'em at the moment. There isn't some clever method to just pay my dollar, is there?
