Default Buy more Storage Space

I don't know if there is a thread about this already ... I used the search and it didn't bring up anything.

Ok everyone knows you can buy a new char slot for 10$ and many of us use them for storage.
Now each new character provides 47 slots - with full bags ( not to mention that you can also use his heroes to store a lot of runes and some weapons ).
Each page in the Xunlai Storage has 20 slots. I also assume that a character takes up a lot more server space since there are data about titles, missions, etc, etc.
So I would like to have an option to buy some storage space for, let's say, 2$ per page...

After the storage update recently, we can only presume that it is feasible to do. I would definitely buy this if it were available.

/notsigned for rl money. Buying more storage with large amounts of ingame gold (say, 10-50k per a tab of storage slots) would be very useful and an excellent gold sink.

There is storage space you can pay for.

It's called additional character slots.

If this would be added to the online store I'd think it would be more than 2 US dollars. It's $10 for a new char slot with a backpack that holds 20 items and a storage tab is 20 slots so that'd make a storage tab ~$10. It'd be atleast $5-$6 tbh.

I did buy more storage space - it is even movable and wears my guild colors. I have 13 character slots - two of them are dedicated storage: Ze Mule and his wife Zea Mule. What is more, for the mere price of $10.00 and 1300g I get 45 slots instead of the measely 20 per page on a storage unit.

Do I think storage stinks. Obviously, or ANet wouldnt have more of my money so I could run mules.

u have to think about this too if items in storage u can just get it right away but if is in a char u have to log/swit off and back on.. sometimes that is a pain in the ass if u trying to sell things but your char cant hold eveything u have.

very true.
But my storage like most people is already stuffed.
I don't know why my storage is stuffed, it just is.
If ANET and NC Soft can rack in more money for like $2 per storage page, hell /signed
It's business tactics!

Sure, it's not neccessary, but I don't like using characters as mules and I'd be willing to pay for extra slots.

having to use a char to store stuff is just ridiculous. I'd MUCH rather be using it to play

The first mule I created was just for storage and sales. I failed to get her out of Pre at first level, but managed not to get any more experience on the way to Droks. In her little Pre outfit she would dance and sell in Droks, Beacons, Icetooth, Yaks, Grendich, Piken, and Ascalon. Why would you need to switch all things around when your storage page can walk and talk and sell for you?

idk i personally think the storage system should be based off of how many characters you have as opposed to how many campaigns you have unlocked... i mean i have 6 sets of armor for my warrior stored on my ele, rit, and ranger... wouldnt it be nice if the storage was a per char slot basis, like idk you get 20 slots of storage space per character slot? you can fit 2 groups of 20 on a tab... just need a way to figure out how to make storage less crazy looking for people with 20+ character slots

Seems like there's enough people who would buy it and it wouldn't take a ton of time to code. The one thing is some people who already bought extra char slots might get annoyed since they were only buying them for storage. Perhaps Anet could allow a conversion of extra char slots to additional storage space...

I think paying real money for storage space is a bad idea. Mule or not. I really don't like the idea that rich people in real life get extra benefits in the game.

5€ for 20 slots it's not 'rich people'.

People can already buy more slots.

/not signed. As said above, if you're desperate to pay for storage, buy a character slot or two and create a mule.

Any upgrades to the game's basic mechanics should be provided free of charge (or at least for in game gold).

Storage is not a game mechanic.
Is a luxury players get by paying Xunlai Agents.

For me, it would be just enough a bit more space to store Miniatures and Customized items.

Storing many customized items will never affect market other than creating gold sinks for those who like to store various sets of armor.
