Shadaw the Rampage Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 i just pulled off the most seriously epic thing ever in the history of neopets...... {maybe embellishing the truth on this statement but wait till you hear what i just did] i randomly put into the shop wizard "lost desert paint brush" just randomly... i feel bad for the newbie i got it from but i just bought one for FIVE HUNDRED NP!!!! A REAL HONEST LDPB FOR FIVE HUNDRED NP!!!! {pants and breathes then screams then rolls arround on the floor in fits of holy words} ill post a screen shot in a minute if no one beleaves me! ---edit--- thats a honest screenshot from me going back with the browsers back button. i blotted out there account name though for the record. T-T am i a horrible person for this? i mean yes i just got a really nice expensive item but i do feel bad about only paying 500np for it. forgive a third edit but it didnt allow me to upload the file here due to its size, i went and loaded it upto photo bucket, i hope that isnt a problem i checked the rules of the forum and it just says that as long as its not offensive or inappropriate. http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e130/sha...ostdesertpb.jpg theres the link to it as i found it other then there user name was blipped out to protect the innocent.

Midtime Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 It could have been a user who had made a mistake in pricing... or maybe the Lost Desert Paint Brush has deflated massively while no-one was looking. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazycrazykitten Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Your not a horrible person. I suggest making a note to yourself about the user, just in case they put something else like that up. If you hadn't gotten to is someone else would have. Man, all pets looks so cute painted desert, or if you were to sell it on the TP...just wow. That is SOOO amazing. Probably never going to happen again though. Congrats!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapphy the Swamp Witch Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Nice snipe :). That user was probably a newbie who thought it was worthless...I've made that kind of mistake before! xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadaw the Rampage Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 o.o i admit here and now that i am shocked and i know your right but i have this nagging angel sitting here telling me to give em something of a bit of value to make amends for it. not like i cant afford it now. ftw and the record im going to keep it.

Batman Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I wish i could find amazing steals like that. The best i ever got was something stupid like i got the blue fuzzle for like 100 np along with a bunch of other things that are relatively inexpensive. Congratulations. Do you know what you are going to do with it yet? Sell it, paint a pet, or hold on to it for awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadaw the Rampage Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 honestly ive had a dream of haveing a lost desert draik pet. -.^ this just saves me 2.60m i looked the price up before had... i never EVER thought id actually get one off the shop wizard. i was just playing arround on there and wham and i was like O.O;;;;; MINE!!!!!!!!

Mantis Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Yeah the other day I won a Tyrannian Paint brush off the auction for 26,000 NP and an orange Koi morphing potion for 7800 NP good luck is out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadaw the Rampage Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 well its kind of refreshing, i never seemed to have goo luck before. yes i did find a nerkmaid the other day but everyone knows my incapability of keeping np. also vast price diffrences bettween the nerkmaid and the pb. quite litterally 10.4 times diffrence xD ya know that is a rather cool way of looking at it, i just basically got 10.4 magical golden nerkmaids for basically free. o.o i must seriously be one lucky neopets user.

Lia Seeya Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Nice snipe! ^_^ I'd put my money on the user being a newbie who didn't know about the value of PBs. I mean, it's not likely that they mispriced. Who would sell it for even 99k? It IS the LD PB. Anyway, congrats! ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naalaro Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 "i feel bad for the newbie i got it from" Ahhh come on, no need to be modest, you dont, its capitalism here, and i'll be as happy as you are about getting making a cool 1.7 million profit. Great great snipe, and a hearty congratulations ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 *jawdrop* You must be very, very lucky to have typed in that thing at that exact moment. However... I don't think anyone else would really think to search it in the shop wiz if they know the price of the dang thing.... :laughingsmiley: :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 :thumbsup: Congratulations on the snipe! Luck can truly be a kind mistress at times... So, now you need a Draik to complete the other half your dream? :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masaryk Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Great snipe! That was some awesome luck you had. Whenever I try anything like that, I come up empty handed. But, obviously, it's still worth trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepti M. Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Congratulations! Just give the user a Ten Dubloon Coin, and be done with it. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadaw the Rampage Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 WHOOO IT WASNT A DREAM!!!!! XD considering it was like 2am in the morning i was thinking it was a dream lol XD and i know, lady luck was smileing on me that day. also the user was a 38 month old member.... so i have a little trouble believing they were a complete newbie.

FutureTXTurkey Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 It actually says on the message of the shop that they were having a blow out sale. Maybe it is just a really generous user, who does super cheap giveaways? 39 months seems like a non-newb age to me, I mean that's like 2 1/2 years, I'm pretty sure I knew the ropes well enough at that point to no undersell a PB. You should totally bookmark that shop just encase this isn't the first or the last time this user has had an insane sale like that. An LD PB, man your are so lucky! Congratulation on the snipe, and don't feel bad, like someone already said if you hadn't sniped someone else would have. At least you really appreciate it.

Shadaw the Rampage Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 i appriciate it sense i honestly dont get anything like that often, i dislike the people who fluant there items and im sitting there going "I WANT!!!!!" T-T its just nice to know that sometimes really good random things can occure for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcatmagic2003 Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Holy cow! o_O I think I would've completely freaked out if that would've happened to me! Congratulations :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deepti M. Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Forget my Dubloon comment. If the user was 38 months old, he/she must've done it on purpose. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
