I got Fyora and the Battle Faerie and both were fairly cheap so I guess I've been lucky so far! Neopets has /definitely/ been ruined by greed :( It's such a shame cause it seems like the kind of site that would attract, y'no, nice people XD

 

At least you only have to visit the page to contribute to getting the overall prize, not complete the quest. Good job on TNTs part!

 

Yeah, I really agree with that. It means the event prizes aren't just reserved for the richer neopians who can fork out for the more expensive items.

Greed? No, its good business sense. I actually have a pair of those ugly fire socks if anyone gets that quest. Not worried about the np and I'd price more fairly. I'd give them away for free if it wasn't for the buttface who claims he has the quest but doesn't actually have it. Greed works both ways, lol.

i got the janitors bucket for a quest.. 25k.. previously 1300nps <_<

 

greed is also in NC too, people are inflating things to really outrageous values. there was a interesting topic on it this morning. its a little different to the FQ because items are being valued for being retired/limited edition but it is how items are being traded thats the issue. people are asking for pure caps which means tonnes of boxes, which means an item is actually more expensive to the trader than trading in items (but now people only trade items for overoffers). when you have to pay $100 for a virtual item, is that a sustainable and viable business model on a childrens site?

I was actually looking for the rainbow socks because they looked cool and I wanted my pet to wear them. So, I go on the shop wizard and look them up, and whaddya know? A pair of torn socks is over 20k neopoints. Unbelievable...
