no point to list this when we cant even enter to purchase via eShop

Would be nice if there were prices listed here.

I wanna buy something soon. I'm tired of not being able to choose the color black.

Yeah... are we not able to view the in-game purchases in the NA eshop? I can’t find them. I’m only able to see them if I go through the game.

Is there a top-up discount or other activity at Christmas? I used to get a 50% discount , but it cannot be used to purchase platinum in eshop

Is there an exact date on when this prime vault will end???

I can’t even find the accessories pack separate, it only shows the individual prime frame packs and the bundle

Console is different from PC in that regard. All consoles (from what I understand) get a discount on the in-game market but have to pay full price for the platinum from the respective console markets. I've seen this as the case in the Switch where market plat prices ingame were discounted by 50% but the plat was still full price. I don't know the specifics behind this logic, but I'm willing to bet it has something to do with the agreement with each company to implement microtransactions into the game. DE likely has to pay a certain fee for it since the purchases go through...say....the Nintendo eShop. If they discounted the plat, they'd be lucky to break even with some of those transactions if there is indeed an imposed fee for the developer.

I'm also having this issue: I go all the way through to the 'add funds' screen on eShop, but there's no option to select the accessory packs anywhere. What am I missing?

An image may help here. 🙂

The image is broken, unfortunately. 

[(NSW)Kromatia 30]

I've been seeing that around a lot lately. It works for me, but I've seen broken images all over the place. Let me try to find a different image host.

EDIT: In the meantime, does this link work?

[(NSW)Persephekore 2]

Nope. 😞 It's not even a link for me, just a jumbled title for a .jpg file. 

[(NSW)Kromatia 30]

See if that is a link for you. :S

[(NSW)Persephekore 2]

That time the image showed up (and the link worked!) but I'm not seeing where the accessory packs are there, either. That's exactly the screen I see in my market.

Okay, so I solved the issue, and in case anyone else is still experiencing the same thing: 

You have to go through the Buy Platinum link in the market. They appear there. That's apparently the only way to access the accessory packs. DE, please consider putting them in the actual Prime Vault section next time so people can see them; this is a little counterintuitive.

Hi there, 

I've been looking to buy the prime vault bundle, and on the website is says £39.99. Going through the eshop though, it costs £49.60, nearly a 25% increase in price. 

Is this price difference intentional? Is it not possible to purchase the pack at the original advertised price? Region is UK. 

 

Thanks

Must be an error on the Website, since the Vault double pack costs 60 dollars, which is with current currency conversion rate around 47 pounds.

It's for sale at 39.99 for pc, ps4, and xbox, only the switch version seems to be at 50. I wonder if the switch price is based on the dollar and converted (which no other game does), or if its just a straight switch tax. The price seems to be constant across platforms in the US though, so no idea. If its always going to be this way I don't feel like putting any money into the game, which is a shame.

Where do you see that? I just checked again on the Warframe.com website and it shows 59,99 dollars for the Prime Vault duo-pack and 39,99 dollars for each individual pack. So maybe you mixing up with the individual frame pack.

Prime Access is also still listed for 79,99 dollars.

As double check, I also just checked the Xbox One store and Steam and there it shows normal prices as well.

They would have made an announcement on the front page of their website and here in the forums, if the packs were on sale. They are not.

It's the UK store, so £39.99 for the duo pack, which is the cost for pc ps4 and xbox, but is £50 on the switch
