VIP+ Too Costly.

Right I am just gonna put it like this:

Stop whining, if you can't afford it buy normal VIP, if you can afford it, buy VIP+. If you can't afford normal VIP: Stop using the internet and save yourself some more money.

i do think it's a bit costly but like jake said habbox needs to keep going

It would appeal to more if prices were lower, I want it but don't want to fork out £4 a month for it, for ONE month on a forum. Yes, I can afford it, with ease, I just like to get good value for money ;)

It's not even exclusive, which is possibly the only reason to make anything like VIP+ worth the money.

If it was £2.50, they'll make more money than if it were £4 via word of mouth and affordability for the price of the features.

Oh but Ryan, you don't have to buy it, that does mean something here... At the end of the day if not one person purchased it then yeah they might lower the prices but people are buying it so people are comfortable with the price. Some who buy it just want to give the money to Habbox whilst having a few extra features to go along with it.

They'd make alot more money lowering the price than they're getting now. It doesn't cost Habbox anymore to give us VIP.

Habbox will get more money if they set it to an affordable level. It's not a case of "you don't have to buy it," it's a case of "is it worth buying it." For the price, it isn't other than "it's like donating!" gets thrown about, which it isn't. Donating is giving money for nothing, buying VIP is giving money for features which cost nothing to put upon a user account, other than labour. It's all well and good saying people are buying it at it's current price, but Habbox will make alot more money if it was affordable. It is afterall just VIP+, not a completely new level of premium membership.

I do agree with you there should be some more features for VIP+, I might be mistaken but I think there are future ideas for VIP+ members to get new features. People are still buying it at the moment, so it must still appeal to some.

Basically said everything.
Habbox needed more money to be flowing in.
This VIP+ gives you so many more features and is a decent price.
If you can't pay it, Don't pay it.

"Many" is a bit of an overstatement and this "don't pay it if you can't pay it" reason is getting old. Does Habbox not want to make money and make more happy customers? £2.50 is such a decent price, and as loads of said, they will pay for VIP+ if it cost that much so that's like £10 they could get from lowering the price (I believe I've seen that many people saying that price would make them buy it). If the worry is with current VIP+ members getting annoyed at the drop in price, give a month free. It's a win / win situation for everyone :/

Also if they made it so you could buy via SMS £3.00 would be a better price because £1 of credit more is 10 texts. (LOL :P. Even though I'm on contract)

I personally think that £1.50 for normal VIP is too expensive to be honest... especially when you consider what you get.
