i caved & bought the box from the TP for 70k ..

 

now i'm 4/8 and getting close :D

Woah!!! Just saw a Box for 35k in the SSW, of course I wasn't fast enough (lag, I'm blaming you!)

I'm going to wait until later on tonight. Given I'm 3 hours ahead of NST, I tend to get better luck. So long as there's someone doing a trade and they're online.

 

I now have the puppet and the biscuits. The same shop had like 10 of each for a decent price. I thought I had the other 3 but... nope. Got a bunch of other things. I realized I shouldn't mind spending 6 digits on an item when I have a guaranteed 2mil item in my SDB (amongst a bunch of other items that go for a good price) and have 9mil in the bank. lol

I think I may skip today. Just the thought that I had Pandaphants and donated them in the event...

 

I'm battling the Chia Clown for the biscuits but no luck so far.

 

From now on I'm going to keep everything in my SDB, even - and especially - toys and I'll donate the very last day of the event. Lesson learned :(

If it's any consolation the puppet has fallen pretty far in price.

Yes indeed. The only incredibly pricey item is the Box. I'm waiting for the right opportunity to grab it, but, alas, I missed some good ones....


EDIT (several hours later): I should notify the board that this is a good time to buy the Pandaphant and the Assorted Mini Biscuits. The prices are dropping. The Brown Rice has stayed the same (~3-4k) and the Box can be found for 70k in the Trading Post (try freakmamma's trades).

Where is the Strange Growling Box from? I've just come back to the game so I haven't had time to do all the dailies enough times to get all these weird items.

I think I'll sit this one out. I have only 3/5, and I don't want to spend so much on the Box. I had one earlier this year but donated it... GRRRRRR.

 

EDIT

 

Actually, if anyone has a SGB around and is willing to trade for a puppet+rice bowl, I'd be down for it. I'm only online for the next 45 minutes though, so please NM me!

Where is the Strange Growling Box from?

 

 

it's sold in the toy shop and it's r79

This is the first day that I've participated in that I actually made a profit on. I only had to buy the biscuits, but I sold my extra rice.

I really wanted the feather, but I'm not paying over 100k for the box /:

Oh well. Just wish there wasn't so much inflation.

Anyone have an extra box? Willing to pay for it, but I need an immediate response because I won't be online for too long, then the day will be over when I get back. [Live about 16 hours ahead of NST]

I'm in agreement that toys should have been left out of the tags. I, too, had a pandaphant puppet or two that got given away the first day. Lesson learned I guess. Sitting this one out unless boxes drop drastically in the next hour or so.

I gave up and sold my Pandaphant Puppet and Brown Rice Bowl. Still have time to do enough quests, so I'm not desperate yet :p

After I am done with my Faerie Quest, I'm going to try to find the box and finish today's Charity!

 

OK, done with my Faerie Quest...anyone have the Strange Growling Box for sale or trade? I'm using the SSW and it's not coming up...I've checked for over an hour...ugh!

 

Maybe tomorrow's quest will be better?!? I hope so!

I got lucky today. I had the box in my SDB and I managed to buy everything else for under 100np. One more day down~ I don't know if I'll be continuing after the required 8 though...

Okay, this wasn't a very good quest price-wise, but won't the quests closer to the deadline be much more pricey? I think it's best to get it over with as soon as possible. I believe there will be crazy inflation for the last quests.

whoa that was intense. didn't have the t-shirt, and every shop i clicked on for a while had already sold it. most. stressful. event. ever.

Today is much easier to deal with than yesterday, thank goodness. :)

today was really easy , i had all the items in my SDB :)

 

Very Generous!

You figured out just what the Neopian needed and donated it in record time. Granny Hopbobbin would like to give you a little present in return for your kindness.

Back in the Good Old Days

5 / 8

 

won't the quests closer to the deadline be much more pricey?

 

it could go either way , i mean , maybe most neopians would've finished the 8 quests and thus the demand would be less ...

I am very very happy that I didn't need to shell out 100k+ for this one. Also, have an extra full set if anyone needs it. :D

Well, I only have one of the things in my SDB. How are the prices looking? :o

Four of the items are super cheap at the moment, but the wocky t-shirt is climbing fast. I'll send you one if you need it. :)

The price seem to be plummeting already. lol The only one I don't have is t-shirt. But someone on neoboard assure that the thing restock a lot, so I am going to try my luck in the cloth shop

Aw, that's really lovely of you to offer, Ruto! But I just got a plushie from a daily that I was able to sell off to cover the cost of the shirt, which I was able to buy for relatively decent. But thank you so much! <3
