Premium to merchant 3.27

Will there be an option for a free upgrade like there was when released in poe2?

I've only started playing in 3.26 but apparently can't convert my premium to merchant because it was after 0.3.0 in poe2.

Will this be an option on release for poe1 for any premium prior to 3.27??

If not seems I'm being penalised for being a new player spending money too late.

I really hope they will add it. Bought my first tabs in 2016 and also cannot convert (got no PoE 2).

Somehow i doubt it because since Chris Wilson left, it feels like this company moving slowly but surely into a less community focused direction.

This still doesn't answer my question,

I know about pre 0.3.0 tabs for poe 2 (also you don't need to play poe 2 just go to the site and log in)

But i mean for players new to poe who bought premium tabs in poe 1 in 3.26.

Are we just a case of, ooooh a new player spending money, hahaha idiots.

Guess we will find out in a couple days, but the above seems a bit dramatic. The tabs you bought are still very useful.

Possibly, but judging on poe2 comments they're just merchant tabs without the ability to do asynchronous selling, bought for 40 but if merchant tabs are 40 then its a loss for starting either a month early for 3.27 release or a month late after 0.3.0 release..

Yes, no async trading on premium stash, but you can still do traditional sales list. (which will likely still be the best bet for bulk sales and definitely the way to go for price checking)

TLDR; you want both types of tabs for sales.

So it would appear I have wasted money on premium tabs because I'm a new player??

Thanks GGG no free upgrade for poe1 players??

don't expect me to spend more money on this game.

You've basically dais anyone who started playing years ago here you go!

Any new players, we don't cater for you go somewhere else or pay us even more money to upgrade you're premium tabs to merchant......

Not the way I'd be going to try and gain a bigger player base!
