    Definitely picture 1. It is obviously more valuable.

    I'm just amazed at gaming companies being able to sell items that have zero cost to manufacture and distribute.

    Once you get past that, it's not quite as crazy as it first seems:
    1. $50 for two epic turbos, 11,000 common parts, 10,000 uncommon parts, 6000 rare parts, 900 epic parts, 40 epic power cells, and 1.3M Gold. T4-T5 evolves take massive resources.
    2. $30 for 3 epic items.

    One could argue these are better offers than the $99 for 8x container deal.

    You do know the first deal is $50 for ONE epic turbo and nothing more right? No parts, no power cells, and no gold.

    That's what I initially thought... but we also see the same item 2 other epics for $30, sometimes simultaneously... and the $50 says right there that it is an immediate evolve. (I have an offer like that right now).

    In other words, if it really is a single epic then Rovio has a false advertising issue on their hands, and need to pull that offer. If I were to pay $50 for an evolve deal and couldn't evolve, I'd file a consumer complaint. In fact the several threads where buyers purchased this are obligated to do just that. It's not actually as humorous as this thread makes it out to be.... false advertising is a big problem.

    Judging by your answer you didn’t read the linked post....it is only 1 epic item. Nothing more.

    And where is the false advertising? It clearly shows only 1 epic. It doesn’t say it’s an immediate evolution either.

    Time. Time is money. Battle Bay cost a lot. In time. (and other minor things like servers)
    It is a single epic, he has one of the two needed.
    This happened to me. I leveled my swift to max t4E, and immediately got an instant evo offer, offering 2 swift torps. I had the gold and powercells, so the torps were all I needed (it was $100). Then I got another swift torp, and the offer dropped to one swift torp. ($50)
    Or are you saying that they are implying that by buying that, you will suddenly have an evolved item in you inventory.

    It is implying it. It says "EVOLUTION V. EVOLVE NOW, DO IT!" The other variation is "EVOLVE NOW, DO IT!" if you have a T1-3 item.

    The 3 item deal mentions nothing about evolving, and it's less money and it's more items, so what is a player supposed to think?

    You know what... number 1 could seem reasonable if u didn't have offer 2 at the same time, and if u wanted a T5 Epic Turbo too!!! No joke

    I’m sorry, but I don’t know why you’re having such a hard time with these offers. If you’re comparing the offers to each other that’s like comparing apples and oranges.

    Offer #1 is implying nothing, it does EXACTLY as it says, it’ll allow you to instantly evolve to the next tier. A level 41 item, is still a T5 tier. It is an offer that is based off of OP’s inventory; they have 1 dupe, the correct training, the gold, they just need a 2nd dupe to evolve. Hence the offer. Like you said it says “Evolve Now”, meaning to the next Tier. Where do you see it saying Evolve to Max Tier?

    Offer #2 is clearly advertised as a “Speeder Bundle” and shows 4x value. It is a generic package, not based off of OP’s inventory. They might not have any of these items in their inventory, so why should it mention evolving?

    As for the prices, #1 is for a specific item that the player NEEDS. So if you don’t want to take your chances with RNG, you’ll have to pay a premium price for said item. #2 is a bundle that you may not need/want. So it’s given a discounted price as an incentive to purchase.

    Hope that clears things up for you.

    I don't get it. Picture 2 is OBVIOUSLY the better offer. 30$ for N,OB,T. 50$ for T? WAY worse than the 30$ deal

    Sure, you get 2 yellows you might not need. Just scrap them for pieces.

    I'm sorry, but I don't know why you are telling me it's not misleading when we have multiple threads of confusion about it? One says "evolve" the other doesn't. One prices an epic item at 3x the other... the SAME epic item. Come on now... and let's face it, once we get over the confusion, the offers are apples to apples: both are just the item(s).
