What's the problem?

Newsflash: If you are a game company this is a feature not a bug.

Also, if you want to get into a mobile game dark pattern try this:

- 100 coins 0.99, 550 coins $6.99

After you buy 100 coins pricing switches to:

- 100 coins 1.49, 550 coins $6.99

Usually you have mechanics like that with pseudo currency, not actual $ because it is too obvious. But understand their are no accidents in pricing at that level of development.

You can buy 600 coins by purchasing 100 coins x6 for $5.94, more than $1 less than the cost of 550 coins.

Is that not an intentional decoy pricing to make people think the 100 coin deal is a good deal?

100 Pokecoins for 0.99 yet also selling 550 Pokecoins for 6.99!

0.99 * 6 = 600 Pokecoins for $5.99

550 poke coins is $6.99

So more money for less tokens when you buy 'more'

Are the bigger packs selling? Could very well be working as intended.

Their goal is to maximize profit. Not to make the pricing "fair"
