People get tired of looking at the same thing every day, and with new Cash Shop items being released oh so very often, I highly doubt Nexon would lose any profits, and I would be highly surprised if they didn't actually make more since people would motivated tobuy more NX.
I have been wearing the same cash outfit for over two years. The first time I got it, it was 90-day. I wore it 'til it expired and then I bought the perma version, which, conveniently, had just been added to cash shop.
My friend has been wearing his cash outfit just as long, and even transfering it among his explorers, along with his pet. But the money he has spent scrolling and cubing gear for those explorers, far outweighs the cost of the clothes and pet. He doesn't play his non-explorers beyond link-skill level, and doesn't spend any NX on either their looks or their gear.
And I have heard any number of guildies and buddies say things like "Damn, my NX just expired!" - meaning that, yeah, they didn't get sick enough of it to buy anything newer.
Yes, there are people who change their look every week, but I believe the vast majority aren't like that.
