    @DarkStarr
    who looks at the prices? Several of the prices have not been "premium" some have been less or the exact same as the original items in the shop. I have pointed several out to @Chris
    Wasn't the Cloud Imperium stuff supposed to be extremely limited edition? only 150 possible?

    IMHO: the vault needs to go bye-bye.

    @Jack SinAssist, but this says "Vault Edition" so it isn't the same extremely limited edition item *cough*. YMMV on that though, especially since you can't see that when looking at the ship on a lot.

    Remember that when we removed the web store we did a massive price restructure and most things were reduced to 50% (or less even) of their original price. So when we refer to premium pricing that is referencing in relation to current pricing.

    The airships are super cool. Too bad these can't be placed as town deco. As is, the hidden cost of needing to purchase another city lot to go with them makes them less attractive. But I understand they are homes.

    The SotA community keeps using that word, I do not think it means what they think it means.

    Expire:
    1. To come to an end
    I think @Alley Oop used the correct word.

    The word 'expired' does not imply permanence. When your driver's licenses expires, you can still renew it.

    What exactly do you mean for a short time? Like in relation to the age of the earth? I don’t want anyone to get mixed up on the usage of words.

    I totally get what was meant by expired now. I was thinking in terms of things that were collectible for my version of expired not things like drivers licenses. Was an oversight on my part. I feel silly now.
