Wow ~ Great Information! Thanks for passing along King!
Especially, since not all of what you get for your $9.95 purchase is really advertised, from what I could tell I the VFK website.
I signed up at the end of October to get all the cool Halloween costumes and was pleasantly surprised that my membership has continued all this time. Also, my credit card was charged in Austrailian dollars--even with a small foreign transaction fee my charge was under $7 for the membership!
I have to agree with wdwdreamin too, in that when I bought into the Australian Founder Membership a month ago, because of the Australian dollar exchange rate, the membership ended up being less too.
It's also nice that none of these memberships options will start to countdown to an expiration date, until the game goes Gold too.
are the Australian memberships getting anything different. Not sure if I should sign up for a month with them ok and what is different from the welcome kit and the month kit thanks
As far as the Welcome Kits, I am assuming this is a real item - that has not been shipped yet?? (I remember checking something off when ordering, if I wanted this or not. I opted yes, but haven't received anything yet) So I don't have any clue as to what this is or what a difference might be?
Australian Memberships get the following, as opposed to the monthly membership options:
50,000 credits vs. 30,000 credits
3 months of membership comes with this package vs. the one month
20 family accounts vs. 10 family accounts
VIP Pin (in game)
both get this from what I can tell
Sydney High Rise Apartment room (in game) - only Australian Membership
** Each family member under the Australian Membership receives: **
Akubra Hat (in game)
Didgeridoo (in game)
Man from Snowy River Membership Pin (in game)
~~ Real Items for Australian Membership ~~
Boomerang
Aussie Founder T-Shirt
Australian VIP Pin
Copy of the Legend of the Man from Snowy River
Hope this helps! Feel free to add anything I might have missed anyone
