Splitsies for Torchlight 2?

[gorcorps]

We'll see if we get TL2 in a few days..

It says "July 2012" for release when you add the game to the cart. So I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Cost structure update, to split the 3.4% paypal cc overhead evenly between 4 people

x = $ (gifted) to boris
y = $ payed by (boris)

3x + y = 59.99 (game cost)
x*1.034 = y

x = 14.87109569

y = 15.3767

I did a group buy here at AT with others.

Why not request for the paypal funds to be gifted to you? (the sender pays the paypal fees instead of the receiver)

At least in my experience, if you send the money through PayPal as a gift, there are no fees.

I loved Diablo 1 and 2. Maybe I've just gotten older, but D3 is just meh-city for me. The RMAH presents another annoying aspect, to be the most effective one possibly can be at the game, one must have solid economy manipulation skills...a MMO headache I don't feel like putting up with in ARPG land.

What's this game like? What about it might excite me more than D3? Was it really made by ex blizzard north employees?

Duely blundered from my thunderdolt

Torchlight 1 and 2 is made by people who created Diablo 1 and 2. They left blizzard a while back and this is some of the games they are creating.

It really is not much different than diablo, just story, and how the characters advance.

This isn't group buy, This is splitsies.

What's the diff?

No, I just want put this forward so people know it's perfectly fair, and honestly, this makes ME pay MORE not less.

The point however is that everyone pays exactly the same amount.

And honestly, it's 1 quarter, 1 dime, and about 2.67 pennies.

 

[borisvodofsky]

What's the diff?

OK for one Splitsies "sound cuter"

and two, it's pretty informal and only 3 people total preordering a game.


Group buy is geekhack and 100+ sets of keycaps at $100 per person, and then Signature-plastics screws up people's orders

That can't possibly happen here

At least in my experience, if you send the money through PayPal as a gift, there are no fees.

If you send via credit-card through paypal there's a fee,

If you send via pay-pal balance, there's no fee, it's the same as cash

If you send via pay-pal bank account link, there's also no fee.
