anyone know if the A Mysterious Valentines Card still works?

[guardiandevil]

or does it only work on valentines day for sidebar

[Twizzler0171]

No, unfortunately... it only works on Valentines. I have a lot of friends who missed out because of that.

thanks for the heads up. i will buy one also and save it for valentines, it might be a good investment (or maybe not).

One for my SDB, one in my shop for 99,999. Wait until next year. I break even. YAY!

[vtothec]

And it's people like you who hoarded them that ticked the rest of us off

Have a nice day.

If you had 100 stashed away, I could see that as hoarding. Having 4 stashed away IS NOT hoarding. It is a smart business move.

Just like people who buy retired items and stash them away in the hopes that the items will increase in value. Or people who buy the advent calendar items when they are dirt cheap at Christmas time and then save them to sell the next Christmas.

I see nothing wrong with that whatsoever. It's investing your nps in the hopes of making a future profit. Anyone who has been playing for awhile knows that the price of seasonal items (Halloween, Valentines Day, Easter, Christmas) always goes up during the holidays. Because more people want them then.

Besides, anytime you buy things to sell at a later date, you do take a risk. You never know if a gazillion are going to be released and therefore, your anticipated profit plummets. Or if Neo decides that the particular item you bought will not work the following year for a sidebar or avatar. Or, God forbid, the item stashed away in your SDB disappears due to a glitch.

Yes, check out the prices of Christmas petpets sometime in August. Then check those same petpets about December 12th. You will be amazed at how much the price has increased.
