Nerkmids?

Tue May 23, 2006 3:29 am

If I have an "Average Nerkmid", is it more worth it to use it at the vending machine, or would I be better off just trying to sell it?

I'm really curious about that vending machine... >.>

Well, you can get some of the nerkmids cheaper. For instance, I decided to buy one for the avatar, and got the Basic Golden Nerkmid for about 82,000NP. You can find the basics for 80-90,000. Quite a few are more, but you should be able to find one at that price.

Now, the Average Nerkmids are more valuable. 105,000-120,000. Essentially, your odds of getting junk gross food are very high. Sure, you might get a paintbrush, and I hope you do. Just don't count on it. :roll:

What I'd consider doing is selling the Average Nerkmid, buying a cheaper one like the Basic, and pocketing the difference. Of course, they say the better the nerkmid the better the prize, so you'll have a bit better chance of a good prize with your average nerkmid. You'll have to decide whether to take the sure thing (profit from sale) or take a chance with the better nerkmid. Either way, if you decide to use a nerkmid in the machine, you'll at least get the avatar!

Oooh, thank you! I wasn't sure what, exactly, you could get from the vending machines. I had heard about PBs, but that seems too good to be true. With my luck, I'll get the gross food and be out 100k. >.>

Thank you so much for clearing that up! I think I'll end up just trying to sell it. Way too risky to try the vending machine... at least for me. I have horrible luck on Neopets. ^^;

What Lutari Paintbrushes?!? Did I miss something here? When did they release those?

Oooh, I've heard of the Lutari paint brushes... o.o

For the record, I decided to spend it. I got a bottled faerie and a food. >.> Not -quite- worth it, but eh. Got the avvie!
