Frontier was lying about the ARX Store not costing more? COVAS was £5 before, now are 8850 ARX but £5 ARX pack is 8820 ARX!?

As per title, was Frontier lying about the ARX Store not costing more?
COVAS voices were £5 each before in the cash shop, but now are 8850 ARX in the store, but the £5 ARX pack is 8820 ARX!?

I hear this is even worse in US Dollars conversion.

i.e prices ARE now more expensive in the new store after all!?
Did they do the math wrong? Or did they do it on purpose for you to buy more packs than you need?

So COVAS are up by £0.30, shock horror! Now go look at individial skins. A whole heap of them are now cheaper than the £1 they used to cost. On a whole it balances out.

Still, some of ARX you receive for free, just spending great time with Your favourite space simulator, so stop crying, and go grinding the ARX.

In the vernacular: Well, duh!

It’s hard to believe that in this, God’s year of 2019, companies are still operating with the intention of trying to make sales and a profit.

this is about integrity and honesty not about whether it's reasonably priced or not...

Depends on which ARX pack is bought. A £5.00 COVAS would cost £5.292 if bought with ARX purchased in the 5000 packs.

If the 8820 ARX pack is bought, at £4.99, the 8850 ARX COVAS works out at £5.007, or 0.7p more expensive.

COVAS acquired with ARX from any larger pack will cost less than £5.00 (£4.795, £4.29, £4.096 or £3.982 respectively).

I thought wpn and engine colours seem a lot more expensive... didn't they used to be 2-3 quid?
