As the lot has ended, out of interest, how much Neopoints was he selling and for how much actual money? Does anyone have a screen shot?

The link above your last post should work... 2mil NP for 52.00 American Dollars. Pft.

i dont see whats so wrong with it... id give up playing neo in a heartbeat if i was offered real world cash for it :evil:

the only problem is the scams. Neo should legitimize this as its going to go on anyways. And make some sort of real-life version of the trading post to prevent stealing.

Well, you have to admit that selling neopoints would be okay. I mean, if we could sell 10,00np for a dollar, all of us here would make quite a bit. Some could make well over 500, and I think that's good enough for a game. I would consider it if I could come up with a safe way. Maybe sell them to an internet friend, somehow, at least you can trust each other.

I thought I'd add to this with the silliness I found.

update: up to $21. Insane. Someone wants to pay $21 for something that's free. I hope they get froze. I think the 12 people who have bid on it should be investigated and their current accounts should be froze. Am I being too harsh? This just irks me that people are scamming naive and/or lazy people out of actual cash for this.

Yeah... they used to do that a lot with Runescape. It was funny.

I'd laugh if the stock and auction board became a board for advertising the eBay for their accounts.

Hmmm... good point. Maybe I might quit my real life job, make millions np accounts everyday and sell them on ebay. :evil:

Well, that account name "does not exist" anymore on Neopets, which is wierd, since usually it would display that "user is frozen" thing. So... it probably a scam.

Hmm not sure if you spelled it incorrectly, but yes it does still exist. No, it's not frozen yet. With the length of time it takes ENT to read mail, I bet they get away with it.

I looked up the user's Draik, and...

The owner of this Neopet has had their account frozen.

So...they're frozen. And I guess whoever's dumb enough to be bidding on it is only gonna get a frozen account, and nothing else :lol:
