SarafinaWolf7 Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 When I was moving items from my old account to my new account I noticed that some had "(retired)" on them. What does this mean? Quote
Daily Dare Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 It basically means that those items will not be released again, whether in shops or other means (giveaways). Only the ones that are circulating in Neopets currently are the ones that will ever exist. :) Quote
Mimii Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 If you don't mind my asking what kind of items? You don't have to share if you don't want to, of course. :) I have a glass paint brush that a friend just gave me last night, I am going to keep it forever! Quote
crazy monkey Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 i have a couple of retired plushies that i will make a gallery for once i get the pack rat avatar. Quote
Unstream Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 It's strange though. When you eat a Bitten Green Apple, you can get a Wriggling Grub, and it's retired. Quote
Masaryk Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 I have gotten retired items from Random Events. The Terror Mountain REs will give out Icy Neggs, which are retired. o_O Quote
Unstream Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 Maybe it's just that they'll never be sold/given away (like via Advent Calendar) again. So you could still probably get retired items through REs and such. Quote
Minawa Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 I know one of the retired items is "Blackened Banana", and you can get it from Grumpy Old King... So I think *Retired* only means that the item isn't sold anymore in shops? Quote
crazy monkey Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 well plenty of people sell *retired* items, you can also find retired items in trades and auctions. thats how i got my *retired* plushies Quote

Mimii Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 I have gotten retired items from Random Events. The Terror Mountain REs will give out Icy Neggs, which are retired. o_O I get those constantly from Key Quest..! Some of the retired items sell for nothing I've noticed.. Also about this wriggling grub, is it every time you eat a green apple or is it a RE? Quote
Lia Seeya Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Also about this wriggling grub, is it every time you eat a green apple or is it a RE? I believe it's random when you eat a Bitten Green Apple. I remember back when it was a good way of making NP. XD Buy a bunch of Bitten Green Apples, make your pet eat it and get a Wriggling Grub (which sold for a good amount). Quote
Mimii Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Yeah the money was what I was thinking about! haha However it might not be that profitable now.. Quote
