Whacker Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I have finally gathered 1m of NP together and I'm wondering if the lab is worth spending nearly all of my savings on. It seems like fun zapping my pets every day into who knows what, and I hear it helps their stats quite a bit for the battledome. Plus, its a guaranteed few more avatars I've been eying. But is it worth spending so much on? Or should I be saving up or investing rather than spending it in one go.. I need some opinions :) thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahtnamas Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 It is well worth the price, but it is a LOT cheaper if you buy each piece seperately, as full sets make the seller a percentage of its actual value, atop its real value. It is a great thing to have, I have 4 painted pets from it stashed on my side, including a snow pet for the avatar. It can also help with stats.

Whacker Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 The difference is that large? I looked around for the cheapest prices on wizard and TP. I came up with 964k for the set in individual pieces which is not that much better than the 980k or so the whole set would go for. Is the TP overpriced?

m3l3ana Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 It depends who on the TP you buy from. There are a few people that buy out all the single peices and then put it up on the TP as a full map. Sometimes you can haggle and sometimes you can't. Most of the time you should be able to get it between 970K and 1Mil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheUnknown Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 When did it start inflating so badly anyways? I got mine during the first month I joined for about 720K... o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahtnamas Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 It started inflating about a year ago I think, I had an older account with lab on all my sides, and they only cost me 500k, then all of a suddent they are up to 1 mil. I think because people are buying them more now, one for pet trading, and two, more new members are joining each day, so therefore demand is higher.

antiaircraft Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 It's part of the general strain on the Neopian economy that's causing so much trouble these days. But yeah, if you're looking for stat increases or rare colours, you can't really beat the lab ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
