Sure you can get ahead if you're really lucky and beat the RNG on these items. SSG is still actively discouraging them being used this way when they could choose to make more money (and be shady as some would say). No one plays lootboxes to beat the RNG for gear, but they do get bragging rights if they happen to beat the house. No one does it because SSG penalizes you monetarily for trying. Unless you have a ton of cash to burn or no self-control that is.

Back to the OP... what exactly are we talking about here for "Limited Time"? How long do you have to get this pet? That's what would make it shady.
