lazycrazykitten Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 About 3 months or so ago I began to collect some nerkmids, one day hoping to spend them all on the alien aisha machine and getting a gold trophy. I stopped a little over a month ago, and today went to go check to see if anyone had any fair deal, only to find out they have seriously inflated in price. Just a few months ago a Basic Golden Nerkmid or a Normal Golden Nerkmid you could find anywhere from 210-250k on average, and a Magical Golden Nerkmid at around 275k. Today those 3 nerkmids are over 500k each!!! Talk about a rip off, are people actually buying them at these prices? They are seriously not worth that much unless your buying one of the colored ones, and even then I'm a little weary of buying them for so much. Your thoughts?

Viridian Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Blah that they increased so much... I still need that silly avatar and am actually hoping for a random event to give me one (because I had one RE like that before.. and lol it *facepalm*) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RohanX Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 in my opinion, the nerkmids arent worth anything at all except getting trophies. but even then you could still get trophies from other games. i dont really understand why so many people make such a big deal about nerkmids. to me, theyre just a big waste of 500k. The only way i would use a nerkmid is if i found one, and then id sell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idriya Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Aside from the avatar, there is also a chance of getting PBs from the Vending Machine. :/ Also, you said "just a few months ago". By that, do you mean before November? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divya Bean Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Well, if I were you I would stop buying them. I would sell the ones that you have right now, but use one for the avatar. Since the prices have inflated, then you can make a huge profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixensykerd Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Grrr, darn it - I still need that avatar too but I thought I'd get some of the more expensive ones first >:( Do you think they'll come back down again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divya Bean Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I hope so! I need that avatar too, only I didn't know that avatar existed until the prices inflated. They probably won't go down for a while though, unless TNT starts releasing them in more REs or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadaw the Rampage Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 hmm i remember the price at 250k ill wadger they inflated due to the 10 scores a day thing a while back and just havent came down, like the halloween paintbrushes on halloween.

flyingeevee Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I found my nerkmid through a random event on my side account and then gave it to my main to get the avatar. I just sell the rest ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishLiz Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Sell them! Man, I need the avatar too! I had no idea that they inflated that much. :ohno: I've been saving up for the Adam avatar, and I was going to do the avatars where you have to buy stuff after that. Man, by the time I have enough neopoints saved up, it seems like the prices of EVERYTHING will be through the roof. What's the point of saving then? o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I remember them selling for 125-130k, so :P (About 2 years ago...) The Alien Aisha random event is not too rare... I've gotten it a couple times. Ok, it has a chance to give you a silly book, but still... seems like the best solution to get the avatar at the moment. To increase your amount of random event, play php games such as card games (pyramids, etc), some puzzle games such as Sewage Surfer or Shapeshifter or Neoquest 1 or 2 :). a When I used one of my first nerkmid, I got a Christmas Paint Brush. Nothing too exciting... But it does have a slight chance to award you a great paint brush such as maraquan, pirate or lutari. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishLiz Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I remember them selling for 125-130k, so :P (About 2 years ago...) That's the last price I knew. :* I guess I hadn't checked in a long time... Maybe I should have bought some, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domino Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I wantzzz that avatar!! *cries* Then it and my alien could be twins. :evo: Like that. :D I was waiting till they deflated a little...cause I was looking at them during the 10 scores a day thing...but I guess waiting wasn't the right idea... Boo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I know what you mean. When I first looked, they were around 200k. Last time I looked, they were 600k. I wish I had sucked it up and bought one then. But now, it will have to wait awhile. I have other things to do first. (Though I did get a Nerkmid ERASER in a RE today.)

Domino Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Are the nerkmid erasers expensive now?!?! If they are....I'm going to be really mad...I stuck one in my shop for 9k...forgot about it...and when I looked recently, it was sold.

Spritzie Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 No. They're not. I meant, I wish I had gotten a real Nerkmid, not an eraser. The one I got, was near worthless. Worth about 200np. I still haven't sold it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domino Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Okay. Good. Cause someone was advertising one on the Trading Boards (by the way...never lurk there like I have an unfortunate tendency to do...you just end up with UBs that are ridiculously HTS), and it was during when a bunch of new items were released...so there were no other ones for price comparison...and I impulse bought it for 9,999, and then freaked out, cause I thought I wouldn't be able to sell it. And that stinks. 600k or 200. :/ Not very good odds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freyja Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 One would think that they might go even higher now, after the release of the Relic paint brush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
