WoW Token Sales in Türkiye

Hello,

Token sales were disabled in Türkiye when some people abused our local pricing to gain some advantage about 2-3 years ago. But now, as of 16th of January, our local pricing is, in effect, gone - the prices are same just displayed in our currency.

So can you please add tokens back to the shop?

Was this because you adopted the EURO ?

Turkey didn’t adopt euro. Local currency was depreciated very rapidly rather abruptly because of different reasons. After the currency got destabilized blizzard switched to local currency “turkish lira” (2 years later or so?) on the blizzard store and implemented local pricing. I don’t know why they jammed up the prices recently though, which connects you to the OP’s topic.

I went on holiday there last year and everything was in EUROS which made everything more expensive…just thought it was the reason behind the WoW price change.

This issue persists.

Turkey isn’t even in the European union. I can’t see them joining in the next 50 years.

Because the Turkish president decided to rewrite the rules of economics and forgot to tell everyone else resulting in hyper-inflation.

Players asked (on these forums) to pay in local currency.

The rate of inflation in Turkey mean they have to increase prices. Quick google shows 44% in January.

Don’t blame Blizzard, blame the government.

The currency is toilet paper due to inflation.

I assumed they had joined the EU because everyone was asking for the EURO when we have never used them in previous years that I have been…my mistake :+1:

Partly true, but irrelevant.
