      OMG I hate how badly I want this but how little I can afford that.

      Fuck the necklace thingy, I'll take the in game item. But do I really want to pay close to $55.00 (when you include shipping and tax) to teleport to Jeuno?

      /sigh

        Not just Jeuno I bet - it looks like it will teleport from one to another based on the arrows. In Jeuno to Khazam (and back and forth) from the Three ntions one way to Jeuno and a back and forth Mhaura-Selbina and AhtUrgan-Nashmau.

        To me at least it looks like a teleport from one to another with 6 possibilities, depending on where you are.

          I know, I'm just saying, that's what I'd use it for but it really sucks how much they want for it.

            Yeah, and it's not even that high quality metal
            It's cast, and silver plated, so it's more than likely White Metal underneath - which is high-tin so, I'm sure it's going to be bendable, breakable and flakable.

            But, think of all the gil you can save on airships and chocobos!!

            And the video strongly implies that you can teleport others - so it could possibly be a SERIOUS money maker on par with tele-whoring, but from town to town.

            I think I still have one of those gift cards from our anniversary....

              So now SE is pretty shamelessly selling in game items. Stuff for visiting a fan event? Ok. Nothing amazing. Furniture for buying a CD? A little sketchy, but still decoration. A very useful piece of equipment, for a crappy hunk of metal? Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

              At least give people the ability to buy them without having to pay for a crappy hunk of metal they don't want.

                      Well, it really depends on what the recast is. If you can use it whenever, wherever, it may be worth it (mostly for the Aht Urgan <-> Nashmau part) but if it has any sort of recast, even an hour, that is way to much since as Feba said, it is to easy to get to and form those places.

                        It's funny how the main thing SE is selling is the necklace, yet yet everyone here seems to be more interested in the in-game item.

                        Little hint, this thing will have a 24 hour recast minimum

                          I'd buy the ingame item for no more than 15$, they can keep their pendant, I don't wear jewelery nor am I interested in starting now.

                            The necklace would not sell at all without the in-game item. If it weren't for that, this would just be a random hunk of metal with absolutely squat to do with the game. The in-game item, in other words, is basically creating the value for the necklace. So I'd say it's the other way around, whether SE wants to try and spin it that way or not.

                            I imagine the recast will be either: 1) long enough that you can't zip back and forth just for quick vendor runs or something, but short enough that you can't quite bring yourself to just chuck it in storage, so it's always taking up a slot you really wish you could use for something else or 2) so brokenly short that everyone who doesn't buy one is pissed for the two weeks it takes SE to do something else distractingly dumb.

                            There is no rush. If you're not willing to take your time, don't be surprised when no one wants to give you much of theirs.
