I'm pretty sure it charged me the full 75. Not that it matters...I don't have anything else to spend my shards on.

Anyone know what the ad said as I can't see it again in my News link. I don't have the ad in-game (as far as I know), but someone helpfully posted this picture. Strangely, it gives the price in Coins, rather than in Shards -- since you're buying it on Ethereal Island, I would assume Shards would be the only currency available.

Using the exchange rate of 10k Coins to one Shard, it seems like you should be paying 3750 Shards for it, not 37,500, and certainly not 75,000. This would be absolutely dirt cheap! Seems like there was a miscommunication somewhere. But yes, as you mentioned, it's not like there's anything else you were going to spend those on, so no real loss!
