AJ11 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 There seems to be a complete and utter disregard of the concept of fair play by a lot of shopowners. They really should be ashamed of themselves for such unmitigated greed. It's really quite disgusting. If I were able to, I'd open up my own few thousand low NP items and offer them to those who really need them for free or under 50 NP. The problem is how to tell the genuine need from the unbelievable greed. How can I tell a poverty stricken Neopian from a wealthy shopkeeper who's looking to corner the market? It's virtually impossible. If this is all just a social experiment on the part of NeoPets and TNT, then they've proven that the greedy will inherit Neopia. That's truly sad. It's ruining it for everyone. They should all be ashamed of themselves. funnily enough I wondered if this is some kind of social experiment too, then I wondered if it is jumpstart attempting to teach us something .. perhaps about inflation and greed either way its a little depressing to see that a very few people can spoil it for the rest - primarily because it is such a tiny community the most uplifting thing I have seen for a long time is the board on here where people are requesting and freely giving items from their SDB to strangers even though they are worth lots just now :thumbsup: Azurablue and circlette 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a8123 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 It's crazy how the prices of some of these items have sky-rocketed through the roof. :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anillak Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Hey everyone! Do you know where I can get 3 Tomato Bombs? Why was their price 1NP two days before (now they are around 20 000NP)? Maybe I can get them as a prize somewhere, or I can only restock them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binary_butterfly Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 i got my tomato bombs from grave danger sadly im all out though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireembemphanatic Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 There are some kind souls donating masses of the needed items to the second hand shoppe and the money tree. Take a look over there if you still need items. (Keep in mind you can only get 10 items per day) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
light_star2 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Today I luckily had all the items needed in my sdb! I forgot to check on neopets yesterday night, so unfortunaterly i only have my second piece so far. Does anyone know how much time we have to get all the pieces?

Rachnisaur Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Yesterday the Wind Up Chia Clown was 1000 np and now it's ranging from 12,999 to 99,999. Does anyone still need a tomato bomb? I still have one. And a lot of other junk items. (I'm so glad I've been too paranoid to throw anything away.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aisha2041 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Does anyone have any Elephante Attack Peanut's they don't need? I don't really fancy spending 130k+ np on getting them. I need four, otherwise i'll be stuck with only one piece. /sigh, good job again neopets team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaotic_fashion Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 You have received: 3rd console piece But Dr Landelbrot takes it right back and sets it aside. What do you want to do next? Have to wait 11hr:51min on the next project..when it has been 10hr:30min normally....shucks xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lipslikearazor Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Just sunk 75,000 np on three Drillaroots... This better wind up being worth it. I won't go bankrupt for a site event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotr_rox Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Niptor Plushie x3 Native Mask x1 EDIT: Totally forgot about the 7 word limit.... :P I believe I have one niptor plushie I can donate to you if you want it. As for me ... I'm out of this event :( ... I need three Gelert in the Box. Can't even find them on the shop wiz anymore. I was really excited to actually finish this event too :( blah lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x3xpotterx3x Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Yikes all of these posts are making me nervous for the future. I have three pieces so far. I echo everyone's statement on the greed part of this. It is really sad that some shopowners have taken a complete advantage of this. I don't know if I'll continue on if I have to sink 100k+ into this. Does anyone think it will be worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bright ^_^ Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I'm actually wondering if TNT was expecting or even planning on this to happen. After, we are helping Dr. Landelbrot build a CHAOS machine, and I would definitely describe what's going on as chaos.

AJ11 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Does anyone know if we have a definite end date and time for the component collecting and building? also april fools day is coming and since this event is likely to be running when it arrives maybe we should be preparing ourselves for what ever TNT might decide would be fun as a joke to play on us in this event Lady Lyuba 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueberrykiwi141 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Oh no AJ11 I just read what you wrote about April Fools...and OMG I think if they play a horrible joke that has to do with what we are doing during this event, a lot of people will NOT be happy with TNT.

Bright ^_^ Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Well, the NC part of this event ends on 11:59pm March31, so I'm assuming that the np/event part of it will also end at that time...meaning the next step is on April Fool's Day, or the big reveal that this is the April Fool's joke. leverhelven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binary_butterfly Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 oh no i hope not that would be a terrible joke. I've done blew over 15000 =( in this but sadly i cant continue, the prices are far to high i can't save money on neopets if i'm over spending...

I did sort of wonder if it was going to coincide the way this is going it does sort of feel like the run up to a big practical joke :rolleyes_anim: :shiftyeyes_anim: the ship is called the coincidence .. quite a coincidence that its almost april fools day and the machine is the caos machine !! eek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
