MapleStory holds in-game Black Friday sales


MapleStory is one of those "free" online worlds that earns its keep by charging users for in-game items (the same business model practiced by Habbo Hotel). So it's nice to hear that Nexon, the Korean company behind the MMO, is starting a tradition of offering Black Friday sales on the world's most popular items.

The sales will run from this Friday (you know, Black Friday), through Sunday, but only for short intervals at a time. In addition, special, rare items will be sold each day for one hour only. Check out the entire Black Friday sales schedule after the break. Happy Turkey Day, Maple citizens.


Sale schedule copied from the MapleStory website. All sale items will be in limited qualities, so Nexon recommends showing up early. If a player can not see the sale item, Nexon recommends exiting the Cash Shop, re-entering and clicking the "Event" section.
