The Collector's constellation was first released on 14 April 2006. The player finds a clue to the constellation's shape by examining an item that looks like a set of scales in either [[Exquisite Ambrosia]], [[Illustrious Armoury]], or [[Magical Marvels]]. Before the item will appear, the player has to set their [[Neopoint]] total on hand to equal the rate of inflation - ignoring the decimal point - that appears in these shops. The rate of inflation changes every few hours.

<blockquote>''When it comes to financial dealings, it is very easy for one's morals to slip, since greed is a very powerful and terrible desire. Those who can resist its call are greatly valued for their honesty. That is why Gordos, our Skeith tax collector, is always smiled upon--even when he comes to collect.''<br><br>

''Before Gordos helped to found Altador, he served a city that severely taxed its citizens. He felt bad for taking such a large portion of everyone's earnings, but the governor insisted that every Neopoint was being put to good use and that high taxes were necessary to keep the city prosperous and growing.''<br><br>

''Gordos clenched his teeth. So this was where the tax money had gone? To gold platters for the governor to dine upon while the people starved? Gordos confronted the governor, who attempted to bribe him, offering to share his riches if Gordos kept quiet. But Gordos would have none of that. He alerted the police, and had the governor removed from office. Gordos then sold the luxury items, returned the profits to the people, and reduced the tax rate to a fifth of what it had been.''<br><br>
