No Gil in my town?

Gil should just march around the town whether you need the deal or not. I feel kind of cheated out of having Gil walk around my town.

I got the impression from the dialogue that Gil wasn't going to be wandering around town anyway. When he appeared on mine, he made the offer, then said if I didn't buy it there and then it would be available from the premium menu but he wouldn't get commission for that. Then he disappeared.

Then I had the offer in my premium menu for a few hours (I do not currently own either of the premium items but as thinking of getting both anyway) but next time I logged in it had disappeared.

Something screwy definitely seems to have happened with this one.
