I would assume so. Anything you buy is yours to keep, so I guess it would let you use them at creation. |

I generally just remember what I have and what I don't.

The Market doesn't have a way to hide what you already own.
In most cases, it won't let you buy things you already have, although I've heard of people buying things that were in a pack that now are separate or having bought things separate that are now in a bundle.
I haven't run into that issue, so can't say for certain.
As for the Roman costume parts, yes, if you buy them you would be able to use them at character creation and not have to wait at least 35 levels to be able to get them from running the ITF.
Just as buying the cape unlock or aura unlock will unlock those at creation instead of having to run missions at 20 and 30 to use them.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

For the most part, the store should grant a quantity error for anything you already own. If you find to the contrary, contact support. Also, there is a mypurchases command, you can use that then copy the tab it outputs to to figure what you own.

This is correct -- if you buy a single costume piece, for instance, and then buy the bundled set, that is not blocked (but as TJ stated, you couldn't buy the piece and then re-buy the same piece or purchase the entire bundle and re-purchase the same bundle).

I did manage to buy one of the Halloween pieces twice when the head was offered again. I had brought the bundle, and without really thinking about it purchased the head things jig two seconds before going 'I have that'.
The my purchases was hard to work out. But NCSoft were able to better check and refund me the points without any drama.
I'm a little confused about the Paragon Market. I've played CoH for about 7 years, and I bought a bunch of the old costume packs.
However, the market is trying to sell me the packs that I already have. This doesn't make any sense to me. I bought the magic pack, so why is it trying to sell me magician equipment?
Also, I already purchased the Steampunk costume bundle from the Paragon Market, but it's still available to buy. Is there anywhere I can check which items I've already purchased?

Wrath smash good.
