It could just be regular inflation you know..

Haha, I guess the other Money Tree guy (or perhaps the same guy) proved just how easy it is to make NP through inflation. There doesnt even need to be an avatar, he makes his money off the guillable herd mentality of Neopians.

i bought one of those early this week because of peophin day, but it doesn't cost that much before.

False inflation, you can get frozen for it, I think I will snag cheap ones, just incase, also Blumaroo day is coming, so i am hoarding blumaroo items.

I was thinking of hoarding them today in case (but I wasn't going to come out and lie to other people).

Yeah, I saw that as well. It definitely seems like he's falsely inflating them. First off, he posted it on more than one board...

And second of all, you can get frozen for false inflation.

Its only a newbie account...they need to IP freeze this guy so they get his main account (which would be selling the cards out of his shop...)

Where in the rules does it say false inflation is freeze-worthy?

It dosen't say it anywhere, it is just one of those unwritten rules, and I have witnessed it happen before.

Although immoral and greedy, I don't believe that false inflation is against TOS... Guessing what will be needed for an avatar is done all the time.

it's called speculation. players buy because they speculate and it results in inflation. it's a bit different from false inflation which normally happens when one or two person monopolise an item and sell it for a high price. in this case, many players bought them through a speculation. i bought 2 in time for abt 10k. they were going so fast that i can't get some of them. i sold the two i got for 40k each and they were bought by different players. it was a quick profit for me though. this time, i am not speculating like that kauvara avatar, just riding the wave abit.
