    My guild does, but we don't publicize it as giveaways are against the rules. But we are also a small, private group of people who don't care about the amount of members we have...I guess that's the difference.

    Maybe

    I think they are getting a little high....the main problem is some paintbrushes are getting sold for so much nobody wants to buy them. I will aquire a paintbrush worth 200K and not be able to sell it. That is my main problem.

    Re: hey

    It's amazing how things go...

    I had some guy wanting over 5 mil for a stamp and he eventually dropped the price to less than 1 mil.

    It doesn't matter what your asking price is for an item...

    it's only worth what someone is willing to pay.

    they are no more inflated than anything else really. NP is so easy to come by anymore that things have to be more expensive.

    It depends on if you're buying or selling. If buying then yes it is too high, if selling it can never be too high. I'm figuring that since most people here are using ABers or the like to help get those, it shouldn't be that much a problem either way.

    The prices are okay, but I'd prefer lap map, its quite fun with a few advantages including battledome status increases, etc. I don't really like any color on neopets because its a waste, but if you paint them, it's like putting clothes and makeup to look like what you want them painted. Basic p/bs only truly paint their colours

    I think some of the prices are getting a little much. Like the grey pb is like 3-4 mil. All that for a silly emo pet. I think the main cause of everything on neopets getting so expensive is because of secret avatars. As soon as people learn that you can get an avatar from it, the price goes up x100. Neopoints are not easy to get for everyone, especially me because I'm rarely on.

    Excalx, I suggest you check out the rules again at:

    Summertime_Blues.... read the post, I was NOT talking about you... I was talking to Excalx and the fact her post was over 3 days after you posted your message.

    Sorry if the way I wrote it was confusing.

    in my opinion pb's cost a lot but that's needed. if everyone could just get their dream pets in a week, what would be the point of playing? still, i dont have any of the pets i want... :( royal and faerie are sooo high... those are the ones i want :D
