I don't actually find this system "underhanded". I like it much better than the usual uniform low probability for good stuff.
The only underhanded part is that they didn't tell us.
If they had put in the event description, "These boxes contain, among lesser prizes, such amazing items as <list>. However, in the interest of fairness, they are programmed/enchanted no to give any one player more than five of them per day. So, after getting your five, please give other people a chance at Eregos, while you enjoy some of the other wonderful content we have for you," it would be great.
However, they seem to enjoy baiting us with the great stuff right off, and then watching with glee as we spend the rest of the day racing, camping, and ks'ing each other over boxes that yield nothing but disappointment...
