In interview, and in FAQ they stated, that we'll get upgrade option on officail website on launch

From the FAQ thread:

"
Speaking of stash tabs, when will I be able to convert my existing Premium Stash Tabs into Merchant’s Tab?
Once 0.3.0 releases next Friday, you will be able to convert your Premium Stash Tabs purchased before the launch into Merchant’s Tabs from your account settings on the website.

Just to clarify, the option to convert your Premium Stash Tab to a Merchant's Tab will be made available on the Path of Exile 2 website when the 0.3.0 patch is deployed on August 29th (PST).


When will the Merchant’s Tab be available in the store?
Merchant's Tabs will be available for purchase in the Path of Exile 2 shop once The Third Edict releases next Friday. You will also have the option to convert Premium Stash Tabs purchased prior to the 0.3.0 release. Premium Stash Tabs purchased after 0.3.0 release cannot be converted.

August 29th is not a deadline to convert your stash tabs by.


My main concern is why this isn't done automatically.
Are they not purely a superset of Premium Tabs' features?
Are there any reasons to not blindly convert all of my Premiums to Merchants?
This is a valid question...

Why the need to "convert" when you can just use existing to support the new trade NPC?

By the way guys...(and gals) the stash tabs promo is now "ON".
Get those prem tabs in order so u can convert as necessary when the update drops next week and you can offload ur lewtz in peace of mind :D

They are not. Merchant tabs are not stash tabs. They are a set of tabs you can access when you click on the new NPC. Its unclear, but I expect you cannot place anything into it without setting a price.

More importantly, if you convert all your premium tabs into Merchant tabs, you will no longer have those tabs in POE1, and they won't appear until the new merchant is created in POE1 whenever they decide the system is in a good enough shape for POE1.


In regards to the first posters question:

No converting quad tabs.

Merchant tabs are not stash tabs, but they are adding the functionality to convert premium to merchant because that's the main purpose for prem stash tabs, right? For public trade.

I would reckon once .3 drops, they will add Merchant tab as MTX. Or quest reward ....or as an EVENT type reward if they feel generous..?


premium tabs purchased BEFORE the release of .30 are eligible to be upgraded to merchants tab for free.This process cannot be undone.

Please note that shared tabs are shared amongst your account. Any tab that you upgrade will be unavailable for use in POE1 until merchant tabs are made available there. Any items in an upgraded tab will remain in a remove only version of the premium stash tab.


So what are premium stash tabs good for after .30?

We'll not be able to convert quad tabs to merchant tabs.
So I ve around 10 normal tabs to deposit my items and around 5 quad I was using to trade. Now I've to upgrade all my normal tabs into premium before the 0.3 release, spending more money.
Please GGG consider to give us the possibility to convert quads into 2-4 normal premium.

If i'm not mistaken, quad tabs can still be used as public trade thru the website (old system).

Depends on what kind of seller you are. If you care about any items that you don't want reaching scalpers hands, you might want to vet bots by normal trade for example. Even though GGG tries hard to deal with bots they are still there.
