I was surprised also. Apparently turbine knows which one we want, that we really-really want
I got it (spiral-1) for my Pal20's dragon-touched but I was aware that it was the most expensive '1'.
Well, that was the point with making preview kits store-only.
So they could track purchases - and profile how popular individual kits were.

It was cunning - if a bit "ruthless".
But this is business, not charity, right...?

Comparing DDO to LoTRO, I'm getting the feeling they're trying to tweak their original micro-transaction model to the latter's.
Maybe they realised people could grind their way to 20, squeezing out every free bonus out of the game, and they're now trying to address that by introducing expensive commodities.
I can't blame Turbine for trying and making money.
Wish they were a bit less overt...
