I had 40k out of the bank. Anyway I left neopets and just came back with 180k out! Either I was being hacked and someone was giving me neopoints or a huge glitch was happening. I look at my neomail and see the neopets team and am like oh cool I won a trohpie for some contest. BETTER! I put my good items into auction so the pant devil can't get them. (I don't like the safety deposit box). Anway I had a bri codestone for 140k in my auctions and some dude bid on it! omgomg thats all I can say!

I'd say from looking at their account, you've been the recipiant of a Random Act of Kindness, I'd pass it along if I were you lol.

My guess is that she saw you were a new player (3 weeks, no shop) and felt a bit of charity overtake her. Personally, I would thank her for her act of kindness--because, from the type of pets she has and the age of her account, etc., she obviously knew the true price of the codestone.

actually I am 2 months with a size 16 shop...My username is James_WC but my name is JamesJimmy for my profile.

Cool.

I personally think u should neomail the chap and say a word thank you or something like that. It was really nice of her.

Maybe the user decided to quit neopets and donate ur stuff to 1 lucky person. It was u. =]

Someone once bid 800k on a lot of mine which was only worth 20k or so. Now that's really generous kindness.

Needless to say, being the receiver of such kindness is as pleasant as being the giver.

Congratulations!

Oh, sorry about that. :oops:

Still, you may seem like a new person to someone who has been on forever and has a size gazillion shop. I get that feeling every so often, even though I have been playing for years, because my shop is really small.

I neomailed the guy who apparently bought the codestone for 155k, and that's what he said.

Were you auctioning a fire babaa?
Or was it just a very strange glitch that you both lucked out on?

Yikes, if that was a glitch, my heart goes out to the poor user who put the fire babaa in the auctions, but did not get his/her nps for it.
