do you think i should invest like 20plat to get a bunch of pink dye if it's never going to be obtainable again? or you think they might do this yearly or something?

ps: i LOVE pink so i want to dye all my current and future chars armor combo's with it.

Many people are speculating that Rosa will be back each October since the "Pink Day in L.A." is such a popular event. (Kudos to those responsible!)

Imo, buy however many vials as you think you'll need under the assumption you'll never get another oppurtunity. I bought 50 vials. I'm not a dye freak so 50 will last for several years. GW2 will quite possibly be out by next October (which may provide another opportunity) so even if you do run out you probably won't care as much.

Agree. They're also rather cheap, so stocking up for future use is quite affordable.

They may be back next year.

Personally I've bought 3 stacks so far, and planning on about 2 more.
But that's just me being freaky I guess.

It's very likely Rosa will return next year for the event. But I imagine most of us interested in the pink dye will save some just in case.

i just picked up a few stacks, that keeps me and my friends definatly in for the pink dye. also i dont think it looks that great on all armour, so having 500 should allow to change it back to a normal colour every few months. also if it is never going to be avaliable again then it could be worth some money at some point. anyone know if you can drop it on the floor for others, as i am planning on stocking my guild up with them to do gvg's in if not better tell them to stock up as well.

I don't change my armor dye jobs very often, but I picked up a stack of pinks anyway. I figure that if I'm going to be using up an inventory/storage spot, I might as well make the most of it.

I bought 1250. 125k can be made in one day during HA z-quest, so it's not a big deal. There is an option that trader will be avaiable next year, but IMO if you have oportunity to buy Pink Dyes now, just do it and don't care about money. :P

How can you possibly need that much dye? That's like 200 sets of armor and 250 weapons. lol

I'm perfectly aware of that I won't use even half of amount. Let's say I just treat these dyes like collector items (with usage!), which can never appear in game again. :P

It's true that you cannot sell or trade them, but you can trade weapons, dye them and re-trade. I don't know if that will work with armor too. I know you can trade customized armor, but I don't know if you can dye another person's armor from your inventory.

Might as well buy 250. Takes up the same amount of inventory space as 1.
