Anticipation and EQ2 plat
9th February 2010
Hey again everybody.
Well, here we are only a week before the next expansion launches for EQ2! I dont’ know about the rest of you, but I’ve really been enjoying all of the pre-launch stuff that they’ve been doing. Now I’m just drooling in anticipation of the release of Sentinel’s Fate.
Of course, with a new expansion, the market for anyone looking to buy plat is going to fluctuate pretty heavily in the next few weeks. I’ll try to keep some sort of tally about who’s got the best prices out there, at least among trusted names.
This brings me to something that I should mention to everyone out there planning to stock up. Whenever a new expansion or major patch drops for any MMO, you run a serious risk of getting scammed. New places will open up on launch day that will claim to have awesome prices and blah blah blah. They’ll spam just about every place they can to get noticed and lure in as many suckers as possible. DON’T BE ONE OF THEM!
For right now, I’d advise sticking with safe and familiar places for your purchases. It’s tempting to go after what looks like a great deal, but you just can’t be too sure with an expansion on the horizon.
I’ve recommended Mogs.com many times in the past, and I’m going to do so again. They are one of the safest places out there to buy eq2 plat, and their track record shows it. Plus, they’ll be ready for any new sort of security that the devs at EQ headquarters have planned for sniffing out plat buyers. I haven’t come this far only to have my precious plat or character taken away. Not with all of that glorious new content coming out!
Anyway, now is the time to keep a low profile and play everything as safe as you can. Feel free to buy, just make sure that the place you’re buying from can be trusted. Me, I’m going to stick with Mogs for the time being. I’ll let you know if anything new comes up after the dust settles.
Later.
A refresher on how to buy eq2 plat safely
11th January 2010
Hello again!
Welcome to 2010! A new year means new opportunities for fun and adventure in EQ2. I’ve really been working my rear off trying to get some new gear and skill masteries. Getting the funds for this is never easy, so I’ve placed a couple orders over the last couple of weeks for some plat to really get me going. This did get me thinking that it’s been a while since I talked about how to handle buying plat safely.
So, here’s a refresher course on how this sort of thing should work.
First, a couple of don’ts:
Don’t buy the plat in large quantities. Most sites offer better prices the higher you go, but this also can put you on the radar for a suspension if they find out. It’s better to buy smaller quantities over time. Although you end up paying a little more, there are places where you can buy plat with good enough prices that it won’t matter anyway.
Don’t talk about buying plat! It’s the same as Fight Club - the first rule is, we don’t talk about it. The chats are always being monitored for that sort of thing, just like they are for spam. And if the GMs don’t catch it, other players who don’t feel the same way we do about it might, and they can report it just as well as a GM.
On the other hand…
Do pay attention when you place your order. Make sure you’ve selected the correct server and given the company your character name so that they can deliver it properly. Spelling matters here, with as many people playing as there are.
Do look for a money-back guarantee (like the one at Mogs.com). Places that offer one of these are willing to put you, the customer, first. That means better prices and safer delivery methods.
Also, use common sense. If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is. Most of us heard what happened when Blizzard dropped the 3.1 patch on WoW. Dozens of players who had used shady gold farmers were suddenly banned and companies disappeared overnight. It’s better to find a US based company who offer realistic delivery times instead of hyped up claims from a website you can barely read.
Take it easy out there!
Back in the plat buying business
29th December 2009
Hey everyone!
Sorry I’ve been out of touch for a while. The long summer really kept me busy outside (those trails aren’t going to blaze themselves, after all) and I couldn’t help but take advantage of the nice weather. At least until it disappeared about a month ago. Since then I’ve been getting things reorganized and what not so I could get back in the blogging game.
Enough about me! I hope everyone out there had a great Frostfell this year! I know I did. I’m really excited to start catching up with my guild again. It turns out that a 8 month break from a game really can make a difference. So, in order to make up for lost time, I’m going to place a couple orders over the next week for some plat.
Since I’ve been out of the loop for a bit I’m not 100% sure that I want to try a new place out this month. A lot of new companies have sprung up lately, and some of them don’t look very reliable. So today I’m going with an old standby. Prices at Mogs.com are really good right now anyway, so I figure I may as well take advantage of it, right? Plus, they’re offering a special deal right now to celebrate new year’s!
Just go to the site and use coupon code PARTY when you process your order. They’ll give you 10% off right then and there! Talk about awesome!
Like I said, I’m way behind in my gear, so I’m going to place a pretty big order today. I figure 200 plat should cover me, for a little while anyway. I may have to get more soon since I have a lot I need to do. Normally, that would run 81.20, but with the deal running right now, it’s only 73.08!
So, I placed my order about 3 minutes ago and I already have my email! It says my order should be ready in about 20 minutes. LIke I’ve said before, I’m not very patient, so I’m going to log in right now. Lo and behold, my plat is already waiting for me. It would seem that Mogs.com has stood the test of time and is still a great place to buy EQ2 plat.
Buy Eq2 Plat Now Mogs.com Review
10th March 2009
Hello Everyone!
Time surely flies ![]()
As you probably now know, if you’re a loyal follower of course, we’re pretty big into Eq2 around here. The game has posted several updates lately and we’ve been pretty excited about playing them. As such we haven’t really been around to throw up a new blog in the past two weeks or so. So what we’ve done (and yes we’ve still made a few EQ2 Plat purchases) is go with a name we trust, and have used for the past few months when we’re looking for EQ2 Plat and not wanting to get our britches scammed off. That name is Mogs.com.
We’ve reviewed lots of plat selling websites here, some with good results, some with not so good results. Mogs.com has been a site that has given us a good experience each time we’ve tried it. We’re thankful for that and we’re thankful for having been able to direct our readers to a company with that kind of track record.
So with the lack of an official review this week we’re going to just remind people that we have had some good experiences at Mogs.com for EQ2 Plat and if you’re looking to buy that is probably the first place you should stop and look.
We’ll be returning to our regular review process next week just as soon as we’re able to get one of these new fire elemental horses *grumbles about dying on the beach too much*.
Anyway thanks for reading and see you soon!
Buying EQ2 Plat For The Beginner
7th January 2009
Hi everyone,
I thought this week I would run down the actual process of buying EQ2 plat and how it works, for those of you stumbling on the site looking for guidance.
The very first thing you need to do is decide on how much plat you want to buy, then do some comparison shopping at the various sites. Prices do vary like any commodity, and will even be different from server to server depending on each server’s unique economy. (One site you might check for starters is Mogs.com, we have used them before and been happy with delivery time and pricing.)
When you’ve found a supplier that you think you can trust, you will select your server, and the amount of plat. You will be asked for your credit card and EQ2 account information, so make sure it’s a secure site. Depending on the site, you might need to talk to a real person on the phone to confirm.
This is where the magic happens. After a variable wait (depending on the site you chose, and also the amount you’re dealing with—usually between 5 and 30 minutes, but up to 48 hours in some cases) you have your shiny new plat!
Pretty easy huh? So get out there and buy EQ2 Plat like there’s no tomorrow! Heh, just kidding, be careful and shop around :) Till next week….
Happy Frostfell, EQ2 Plat Buyers!
17th December 2008
Hey guys, (and gals!)
Hope you’re liking the weather wherever you are and getting lots of good gaming in. I know we’re all enjoying Frostfell, EQ2’s very own Christmas celebration. Norrath is getting cozy and festive with new crafts, quests, and snowball fights. I’ve been checking out some of the new holiday quests they put out this year, as well as taking one of my newer characters through the classic ones. Lost a toe to frostbite playing in the snow, but it wasn’t one I cared too much about
Also picked up some new recipes to try, so all in all it has been an entertaining and busy holiday for me.
I got me some EQ2 plat last week using the coupon I told you about from Mogs.com (thanks guys!) and have been steadily spending it so I can buy more EQ2 plat (what a rough life I lead!) but haven’t yet decided who my next target will be for review. Stay tuned next week for some hints on buying EQ2 plat safely and without getting ripped off. Happy Holidays!
The first time we’re going to buy Eq2 Plat
6th November 2008
Hello again everyone!
I hadn’t originally planned to post again until the weekend; but I ended up getting some spare time today - so my time is your gain.
This week I wanted to try a new site that I haven’t really tried before. I found one within about 3 minutes of searching(go google ads). They promise under 6 hour delivery times and have pretty competitive rates - on a side note they also say they are 100% American - who knows about that.
The website is Mogs.com and the going rate is 20 Plat for 25.61, this might of course change by the time you read this.
I think the best way to do this is post what I have written now; and then I’ll post a follow up with my ranking when I get the order. (P.S. Order placed at 8:40 AM Mountain time - we’ll see how long it takes to get it)
====================================
Got The Order
That was INCREDIBLY quick - I guess they carry stock on EQ2; I’ll give you the exact run down on how dealing with this company worked.
1. I placed the order - first time order.
2. I got a phone call from a 100% U.S. person just to confirm it was me that placed the order.
3. The person told me they had stock and it would be delivered within 15 minutes.
4. (Me not liking to wait for anything) By the time I even logged in it was there and waiting for me.
As far as customer service and delivery of the product go I don’t really think this website is going to be beaten by anyone, short of telepathic customer service reps these guys are about the best there is out there.
I’m going to review another site mid next week but I’ve got to give a big hats off to Mogs.com for this weeks review. This is how a company that sells eq2 plat SHOULD treat their customers.
A+
Mogs.com is a great place to buy EQ2 Plat
How Buy Eq2 Plat Now is going to function!
5th November 2008
Hello and welcome to all fellow Eq2 players and friends!
Many of you know me! Hell I’ve been around since the beggining
Many of you do not! - Where have you BEEN!
I’ve been playing Everquest 2 now since the very beggining; I was an original EQ player and loved it; so the progression to eq2 was a pretty easy one for me to make. I’ve always loved nice things, both in my real life and in any of the mmorpg games that I play. The biggest frustration I’ve had is getting enough plat to get some of the things I need in the game. Yeah I could totally sit and farm for hours, but why do that when some of the prices on plat are so cheap you can spend 20$ and get what it’d take you a few days to grind - For me that choice is obvious. I’m an Eq2 plat buyer; love it or hate it. The one thing I’ve noticed; through the years and many websites I’ve tried to buy from; is that it is VERY….VERY! hard to find GOOD consistant supplies of plat (I do play 3 servers btw) on the different servers I have ordered from. I’m a pretty consistant buyer; and one day I said to myself - “Ya know…If I have this amount of trouble when I’m out buying..I’ll bet there’s A LOT of people with my same problem..” - Rocket science I know
- So anyway I set up this website for anyone and everyone to read; I’m going to post updates on eq2 in general, and then reviews on places to buy eq2 plat, safety precautions, and just some good general rules to follow when you’re out shopping.
The main focus for the website though will be solid reviews on places to buy eq2 plat which will includes statistics (I’m a big stat man) on delivery time, I’ll rate their customer service and email response time, and finally rate the prices for the eq2 plat that these different outlets post; probably in relation to the other factors mentioned above.
If my blogs get kind of long or ranty forigve me - keep reading usually there is some good info in there.
Thanks for reading! I’ll post some initial updates and reviews this weekend!
