Marrow Items

Thu Dec 09, 2004 1:59 am

Ok, so I just won the Guess the Weight of the Marrow game...which completely surprised me. Anyway, I won a "marrow bone" and I don't know what to do with it. It seems to be pretty rare [Special - r101], since there are none in the Wiz, only 4 in Trades, and none in Auctions. They don't do anything special do they? It seems like it's just a plain ol' food item....which is very disappointing, because who's gonna want it? Is it rare enough to count toward the Gourmet Food Club?

WOW!!! CONGRATZ!!! That is worth a cool million from looking at the trading post, sell it or forever hold your peace

Wow, you are the first person I know who has ever won the blasted game! Congratulations, but I think the item will most likely be hard to sell.

Congratulationz uniquelyput! I suggest you sell it eventhough it's a little bit hard to sell, I guess. But you can try.

Yeah, I know. :-\ I can't revel in the fact that it's worth so much since most likely no one will buy it...it seems to have little redeeming value. bleh! Ah well, s'pose I'll try.

That's amazing that you won! I didn't think anybody ever won. Was thinking it must be rigged.

I have to ask, what number did you guess? If you don't want to say, how about letting us know if it was between 200 - 800 pounds.

Good luck selling that Marrow Bone. (It isn't Gourmet by the way.) Gourmet Foods are rarity 90 - 100.

Wow, I never thought anyone actually won that game. Yeah, it's extremely HTS, just keep advertising in the Trading boards and someone will buy it. Try putting it up for auction for 2 days, you never know.

Also, don't be disappointed if no one wants to buy it for a million. You'll probably have to lower your asking price substantially if you want to sell it. And yeah, just push it on the Trades Chat as much as you can. Hopefully there's a rich player with a Marrow gallery out there.

The answer I put in was 458 (and I sent it to two friends a few minutes afterward and the same number worked for them). Completely random number. And I had to do a double-take...because I'm so used to my guess being wrong, I pretty much just go back a few pages as soon as the second Guess-the-Weight page has loaded. I was quite surprised this time.

Thanks for the advice everyone! As long as I can sell it for a good price...I don't expect 1 mill since it seems like a pointless item...but maybe some crazy person will want to collect it haha

And I was hoping I'd get a trophy or something...but no...

I won once. I never recieved anything! I reported the bug though. I won once in over two and a half years of guessing every day. You are lucky. Put it in the TP and offer it for private auction (since TP only allows offers of up to 800K). Be patient and you may earn a huge amount!
