Buyer BEWARE: Spoonfish ==> HIGHLY Inflated.

Wed Jan 26, 2005 12:48 am

This is the latest one the inflators have inflated.

Just so you know.

What does it actually do? Why would it inflate? Sorry, just wondering who in their right mind would buy a utility fish for anything other than galleries.

People have artificially raised the price of the Spoonfish.

They just bought all of them everywhere. Then they post a couple in the trading post for 10 million ... and since all the ones in the shop wizard are unbuyable ... they start offering them on everyone's big trades.

Basically ... lame. So don't accept offers on a spoonfish on your trades ... you'll most likely be disappointed tomorrow when they become buyable again.

Better luck next time.

Anywho, I do have to admit, it was a pretty dumb idea to inflate it. Wouldn't you have enough to inflate morphing potions??

UGHH, I think you can add the item "Locator Device" to that list, as it also appears to be over inflated on the TP just now...

Fortunately some nice ppl have put warnings up on the TP.. thought Id add it to this thread...

the over inflators really are at it today....

SS:)

Just curious, but how much were they worth before this big inflatathon?

Wed Jan 26, 2005 6:07 am

I bought one last month for under 10K

Wed Jan 26, 2005 9:15 am

i'm pretty sure that they were $37k ish last week. . .

What utility fish does? I thought it does nothing, except for galleries. o_O It's totally weird.

No, they're useless. What a stupid thing to falsely inflate. People like that tick me off.

Wed Jan 26, 2005 11:47 am

Yeah, the Locator Device is now priced at 5 million on the post, even though it's under 70k on the wiz.

Silly people tick me off!!!!

Like I said with the Jewel Bowls thread we had not to long ago, no one should take advantage of this. It's not fair to you, and mainly the second party.

Let people do there stupid thingy, but no one should follow them in it. Not even if your offered a Thyoras Tear / Jade Stone. Sorry, but that'd be bad Neokarma.

Just liek the Roe Sushi was, high on the TP, TOTALLY buyable in the wiz.

I believe black skull candles were artificially inflated last week too, but they seem so be coming down quickly now.

*edit* Well, maybe not. Someone's goe and cleaned them out again. They were down to less than 30K on some of the shop wiz indexes earlier today.
