Hi

My previous post is true. See Pic 1 above (Reply #171192) for prices prior to April 2020.

I do see what you mean though.
Prior to April 2020, we paid for our subscription either with A$ or with cash, which I believe is the same fee as now – USD $39.95 – and for that we received 12 months subscription and 6,000 A$ to spend in the shop.
(The month long and 3 month long bought subscription also received A$.)

Compared to now where we buy A$10,000 for USD $39.95 but A$7,000 has to be spent on buying a 12 month subscription, leaving us A$3,000 to spend.

You and probably others feel that we are A$3,000 worst off than before.

To compensate for this shortfall, Achat has allowed buying members 4 gifts at any price. (If you are wily like Corina_33 & JessiCapri you will choose the most expensive gifts you can find).

When we buy our subscription we also get a further, lower value 1 gift which we can choose to take or save and build up for more expensive ones later on.
This could go over or under the AS3,000 shortfall.
Every time we buy A$ OR a subscription, your account takes stock and lets you know the choices available to you.

We have to spend our A$ in the shop, so members choose the gifts. Gifts we would have probably bought anyway.
The disadvantage or advantage, depending on your generosity is this “gift A$3,000 shortfall” has to be spent on you. You cannot gift it to others (unless Achat has yet to change this policy) and its the number of gifts that count not the shop price.

The remaining A$3,000 can also be used to buy further subscription. You can buy straight away and see your “Prolong” membership days increase & of course adds to your account the increase credit for free gifts.

So therefore, your A$10,000 you bought buys you
A$ 7,000 – 12 month subscription plus 4 gifts, plus cheaper 1 gift (5 Gifts in total)
A$ 2,000 – 3 months subscription plus gift credit (Exact amount is unknown at the moment)
A$ 750 – 1 month subscription plus gift credit (Exact amount is unknown at the moment)

For your cash, you get 14 months subscription with A$250 (A$100 buys you 3 days) left over which can be used to buy 6 days sub, or in the shop.
Plus the 5 gifts and gift credit you can accumulate and build up.

The prices are still comparable to before but you have restrictions that will effect your gifting capacity to others and the gifts you choose to take.
Instead of buying the best value and most poses / clothes for your A$, you need to shop now for the best gifts to save your spending credit.
Be careful when choosing your gifts – they may not be suitable for your gender or persuasion. Click on the pic to make it bigger to see it better.
It also seems not all poses are available for gifts to take. There are a lot of MF poses missing, which I presume are the best sellers and are the most expensive. For example the MF Sex swing is not available as a gift and costs A$349.

I suspect those who pay monthly or buy 3 months subscription may be the biggest losers.
I would be interested to hear from members what gifts they have received for their cash and subscription to see if their shortfall is made up.
If memory serves correctly, I think the cash payments are the same for A$ but the subsequent A$ subscription payment needs to be made up in gifts (It used to be: $9.95 = 1 month sub + 1500A$ ; $14.95 was 3 month sub + 3,000A$? – not sure of A$ receipt on the 3 month subscription)
Therefore the monthly gift shortfall is A$750 & the 3 month subscription shortfall is possibly A$1,000.

I believe this is probably a way for Achat to recoup some cash & encourage members to use their A$ and not allow it to build up so much. Also to encourage members to buy further A$ and for the less popular items in the shop to be bought or chosen as gifts.

Achat has also indicated if long term or “well off” members have bought the gift items already, they would consider giving “Game Time” instead of gifts but this would have to be requested through Achat “Support”.

The prices are still good value compared to other similar games.

Lets also put this into perspective, the cost is USD $9.95 or £8.76 or 10.08 Euros per month.
That’s at Achats most expensive. I spend more than that on a drink down the pub in a night!

Buy A$10,000, save 40% (for $39.95 or £35.18 or Euro 40.47) and it costs even less and works out as USD $3.33 or £2.93 or Euro 3.37 per month – That’s the cost of a cup of coffee at a coffee shop or if you prefer supermarket prices – a cup of coffee and a sandwich.
So remind the e-beggars of that next time they try to squeeze you for A$ and the use of the poses YOU bought.
