EDIT: You can't sell phoenix mech's, You can sell the standard. Which is awesome.

Question: Are we able to sell the non bonus XP mech's and use the mechbay's. This is currently not clearly mentioned anywhere and would very much decrease the value of such a deal.

I purchased the Overlord package under the assumption that this would be possible as this was mentioned nowhere in the FAQ. Please include it in the FAQ if you can't sell them to prevent critical information.

This thread already gave some insight but wasn't clear on the distinction between the hero and standard mech's. http://mwomercs.com/...oenix-mechbays/

Thank you for you time,

Fingon

Why? @ Both the OP and the first reply.

[Nauht]

Yep, not clearly stated anywhere with the PP advertising.

There is NO notice of not being able to do so and PGI have not clarified all the posts from people, including me, that have been de facto salesmen for them.

We've just been buying based on the established practice of selling normal variants - because that's what the game is currently. That fact alone already gives as a legitimate case for a refund.

Able to sell them or not its still a bargain, frankly I could care less, as I havn't sold a mech yet,

Narcoman will be posting a response he got from PGI earlier today.

I read it, and we CAN NOT sell back ANY PP mech or reuse a bay. If you buy the same crap with Cbills, only then can you ever sell it.

So nice of PGI to announce this to us before all those Early Bird dollars, not.

Wait, what? We need to see this response, pretty please. This is kinda huge.

[Kanatta Jing]

It kinda makes sense. Not being able to sell a mech for C-bills that you bought directly with Dollars.

It actually sounds all safety scissors and lawer approved.

Hello NARCoMAN,
At this time the answer to that is "no, these Mechs cannot be sold" - we don't want to give away free Mech Bays (But adding extra Mech Bays for the Mechs we're adding is fine). This could potentially change in the future, before release of these Mechs, but it's fairly unlikely.
Cheers!

They've updated the FAQ and you can sell the standard variants and use those mech bays as normal, the 4 Phoenix mechs are locked, the customer service person was just confused... Would link but on mobile

[mack sabbath]

Odd, 2 reps gave the identical emeil response to 2 players.

Methinks management and CSR's need to have a briefing to get on the same page before October! Thanks for the update guys.

[SovietArmada]

They updated the FAQ, they say that the Phoenix variants CANNOT be sold, but the standard variants CAN be sold. So if you bought the overlord package then you get 8 free mech bays.

[Eddie Smurphy]

Indeed, Which is great .

[Angel of Annihilation]

Really can't see why they wouldn't be able to be sold since unlike hero mechs or the PP unique variants, you can always re-buy the standard variants if you acidently make a mistake and sell them.

[TehSBGX]

I'm Kinda okay with that. Sure the locust with a bonus is gonna collect dust forever but I really just wanted the S-hawk and T-bolt. I was planning on keeping the 'hero' variant and the one that fit my play style the most in the long run for those two.

[Symber]

Yeah apparently the emails saying the standard variants could not be sold was a miscommunication during a single conversation over there. All taken care of now though.
