Credit Sale for Cyber Monday!
-
To make sure I'm reading this correctly - Thursday (Dec 3) at 2pm the sale will still be going on?
I'll still be able to take advantage of this on Thursday?
-
@wolfpack ....and that is why the sensible thing to do is use 12:01am or 11:59pm to remove all ambiguity
-
@wolfpack Whoops! We usually do 11:59, so we'll have to remember that in the future. It's ending on Thursday night at 11:59 PM Pacific time, so yes, you should have all day Thursday to take advantage of the sale.
-
Originally bought 50 credits, but then added another 20 as a precaution. So a total of 70. I imagine I'll use a lot of them to catch up on series and for any future licenses.
-
I bit the bullet and got 100 credits this year. I probably won't actually go through them before the next sale, but they'd be gone in an instant if JNC were to be able to crack AlphaPolis' shell and actually get them to start licensing some of their LNs
-
I just ponied up for 20 credits. Not sure what I'll spend them on yet, but they don't expire, so. After all, there are several series i could buy up. Dendrogram, Outbreak Company, Faraway Paladin, Kokoro Connect just to name a few.
-
I got 30 which I think is what I got last year and I had just 2 left on top of my premium credits. I'll finish off Outbreak, keep up with Slayers and probably get my favorite of the romantic comedies.
-
I ended picking up a 100. I don't know If I really need that many, but since I bought on Amazon before and now buying from j-novel I figured it would be better to. buy more than not enough.
-
Oh wow, almost missed it.
I went for the full hundred too ... I'm switching all the series I follow on amazon to premium with all the idiocy they've been pulling lately.
-
Just a reminder that this sale ends in a bit under 8 hours from this message! If you want to buy discounted credits, better do it soon!
-
@myskaros I'm being a good little boy and stopped at 100. Although I went through more than that this past year, the bulk drop of Invaders books accounts for the excess.
-
The sale is over! Hope everyone was able to get what credits or books on Google Play they wanted!
-
@myskaros It should be removed from the front page scroll, or the graphic edited to say "OVER!"
-
@SomeOldGuy Yep, I just woke up and removed it lol. It might take a minute to properly go away, or you might need to hard-refresh D:
-
Would love this sale to happen again 🥺

I remember reading (not sure where; maybe Discord?) that it's not gonna happen this year.
-
Well it would be nice to have confirmation here if it is happening or not, and when if it is. I will drop somewhere between $250-$500 on credits if it is happening. If not then I will pay as I go as normal, but I will probably buy fewer books overall as I won't have a glut of credits to spend on novels I normally wouldn't take a chance on.
-
@blort Yeah my thoughts exactly. There are a series or two that I have read on catch-up that I would buy in their entirety if there's a credit sale but otherwise I will probably just purchase next volume of the few favourites that I have previously bought volumes of.

I saw that on the discord this weekend too.

@blort Honestly, I agree on that point. Being able to purchase a large cache of credits to use as I see fit lifts the mental burden of having to purchase credits each and every time I want purchase something new. I've definitely seen a difference in my behavior in having a credit cache or not. If I don't I have many credits to spare I usually to hoard them only picking up volumes I absolutely love and can't be without. If I have a cache I'm willing to experiment and pick up stuff that seems interesting either because of the story summary or what people were posting on the forums. Because I bought the credits earlier in the year, purchasing the eBook, doesn't have that same mental cost. It's "free" to me, because I'm not pulling money out of my credit card when I click the purchase button in the future.
It also helps me pick up longer running series if I have a cache. As much as I enjoy them, I would have never picked up How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom or Ascendance of a Bookworm as they have so many volumes and would require a lot of credits to catch up with.
I know they aren't probably going to announce anything until actual Black Friday/Cyber Monday cause that is how companies roll, but I really hope they have the sale again this year. I've been thinking of taking the plunge and starting Invaders of the Rokujouma!?, but that is way too many credits to throw at a series if I can't get them at one time.
