If it's something you really want, then go for it! It's a major purchase though, so think it over first. Also, remember you need the PB to get the color you want also; you don't want to be stuck with a Mutant Draik.

Well after nearly an hour looking through the colours (which out of all my partner prefers the mutant look o_O ) I like the checkered.

The colour has to fit the name though I adopted this pet because the name was unusual -Glunden- so Im limited (IMO) to which paint brush I can use.

I have a Krawk Trans potion right now, which I bought about a month ago. I haven't used it yet, because I'm not entirely sure I want to use it. While I'm making back precious NP (saving for the brush I'd use if I did utilize the Trans potion), I'm just keeping it in my SDB "for a rainy day." If I change my mind before I buy the PB, then I'll just resell it for a few 100k more than I bought it for.

If I were you, I'd buy it now, since the price is only going to go up, and then hold onto it for a few weeks. If you change your mind, you can resell it and you haven't really lost anything. If not, then you'll have a very nice addition to your NeoFamily.

When I started actively browsing the TP for pricechecks 4-6 months ago, the Draik Trans was 2m flat. That was the average price, not the minimum or 'cheap'.

Now it's, what, 3.5m?.
That's a lot of gain for such little time.

Buy one regardless if you don't need the neopoints for anything else. Keep it safe. Mull over your priorities.

Perhaps by the time you're dead set, the price may be in your favour and bring in some profit if you don't think you want a Draik afterall.

It's the same for Krawk. It went from 1.6m to 2.4m in that little time. LE pets are high in demand, and more Neopians have the money for them these days. More people wanting them, higher the price goes.

I kind of wish I would've done this, maybe I will when I have some extra cash.

I would definitely go and buy if I wanted a draik :)
shame that I don't though

But like the others have said, the potion price will only continue to rise, so if you want one, buy it now :)

Restock at the magic shop for a Draik MP. :lol:
Is there a Checkered Draik MP? If so, good luck! :lol:

Okay let's be serious.
Well, for me, I would totally destroy that idea. I'm not a huge fan of Draiks. I once considered to have a Maraquan Draik (which would cost me about 6mil including the petpet) but since it's soo expensive now I just forgot about that crazy idea. Not saying your idea is crazy, though.

Edit: Jeez, I thought you didn't already have the np! Alright fine. So if you have the np, earn abit more (like 100k?) and then buy the potion. Yes, I suggest you buy it. After buying the potion and painting your pet and blahblahblah, you will feel really good about yourself with such a rare pet that you strived for. :) FEEEEL THE POWER!!!

I currently have 2mil and will be about to get a Darigan Kougra myself. Just that I have a huge problemo...I don't dare to use the pb for some reason. Oh well. Be braver, Sicily! XD You will be able to <s>feel good</s> FEEEEEL THE POWER!!!

I'd buy it. Like its been said, you dont have to use it right away, and with the way prices are going, you arent going to lose anything if you decide to resell. Just make sure you really want that Draik before using the potion.

Well :D I bid on a Draik Trans and finally I have it :D

Though like a few of you have said I have stuck it in my SDB to make sure I really want a draik o_O

Im Currently trying to decide if I want four pets or just 3 and have the choice of adopting and zapping pets for those that dont have access to the lab ray.
Right now I have 3 pets that I couldnt part with.....
RoyalGirl Poogle (which is the pet I have wanted since startin neopets 17mnths ago) a Baby Poogle (which may or may not be the one I change)
And the first pet I created my Baby Zafara, and the fourth pet is at the moment an Ogrin (my lab pet).

So Im at a loss as what to do, argh :cry:

Congrats on the Draik TP! I can't remember how much I paid for mine, but it was a couple of years ago. The Maraquan PB was a lot cheaper then, too.

Do you have a side you can put one of your pets on? I have 4 pets at the moment. One's my Draik, one's my battle pet, one's my current lab, and one's my ex-lab, who's grey and I just need to get rid of. I like having less pets though - having 4 scares me XD


Gone, forever.

No side account :( and Im not that good with being fast in the pound I dont want to risk losing one.

Im seriously thinking of changing my poogle baby, only because I have my Poogle RoyalGirl and my Baby Zafara, this then gives me the opportunity adopt and zap in the lab.

Decisions, decisions o_O

if it's something you like, go for it.. besides, if you don't spend your np on things you want, what on earth are you going to do with them???
