It's $5 to get 130 gems. Some people don't want to spend real money, but I looked at it as entertainment. Colloseum competitions got us close enough to reallyreallyreally want the EBI so we spent real money to get the rest of the way (my son and I play one game). If it gives you an advantage for rare dragons, it's a slight one. If you are at all the impatient sort, it's really nice to have two breeding places when a limited dragon comes out and you can breed in two places at once to try to get it. We got our first Rainbow in the NBC, but just got another 48-hour breeding time with Bloom and Sakura in the EBI. While the EBI is unavailable for 48 hours, we can try for a second Butterfly or a Current dragon in the NBC. A game purist wouldn't spent real money. An impatient person might.
