So if you use developers to trade in 100,000 RObux you get 100 dollars.
If you try to buy RObux with 100 dollars, it will only give you 10,000 RObux.
That is not at the slightest fair, at all. That is outrageously a rip off.

@Wittleduckling, you are only getting 1/10th of what you trade in. That is just dumb. I can tell you honestly don't care, and my question to you is; Why even comment ?

If ROBLOX made the DevEx 10,000 robux for $100, then the company would lose money because more people are free to take money from the company. You don't want ROBLOX to go into bankrupcy, do you? They made it 100,000 robux for $100 to make it limited to a certain amount of users so that they do not go into a deficit.

because, the majority of the people that use devex don't have the sense to realize they are getting leeched out of their money from roblox.

The real point of DevEx is to reward the success of avid entrepeneurs on ROBLOX.

There are a few things that factor into this:

First, the R$ cards were around since before DevEx. They couldn't change the amount of R$ in these cards just because of DevEx.

Then you have the fact that DevEx is meant for the extremely successful users. Most of these users don't buy R$ cards, but have been very successful at gaining money in game.

Finally, if we made the R$ close to what you could cash out with DevEx, it would basically be like giving people a "head start for free" card in which users could buy R$ for real life money, then use that to get such a lead on competitors who don't have money to buy the cards with. Once they gain that edge, they could just cash it back out.

We don't want to make a payment system that hurts our users. It wouldn't be fair to the users who don't have the money to buy the R$ cards if we increased it too much.

we get 1/10th of anything for 100 dollars. All I am saying is atleast 3/10ths instead of one. Don't reward people that are giving you money! reward the people that takes it away! :P .

Alright. I think I'll bring it up and maybe we will look into it. We always are open to suggestions about the economy.

If they gave back as much as you would buy, then people would be buying robux, using TC and making it back into real money.

I mean, you raised the floor price so now everything else is expensive. 100tickets for a really ugly shirt/pants. You can obviously raise the Robux amount .
