    850k-1mil?!
    They're going for over 850k in the Auctions too o_O

    Are they suspected to keep rising or will they fall again after Lupe Day?
    I was on a few days ago and they were still around 650k.

    Damn, I want one >.<; But most of the Spotteds are ugleh, not worth 850-1mil in my opinion.
    Anybody else agree? You're probably all going to tell me that you've bought one :p

    What...why?? Spotted is such a plain color to be that expensive IMO. Well I do like spotted kois just fine but I'm not paying that much. Are they being inflated?

    You know, that price tag makes complete sense to me now. XD I'm still not getting one, though that is quite a nice color.

    That Lupe does look really cool. Kind of African Wild Dog-esque. I don't suspect the prices to fall too much. When I checked a month ago the average was around 800k. And that was before the new lupe was even leaked..

    Stupid Lupes.....
    Even though now I sooo want one. xD They're one of the best colours for sure but I think I might hang on for a bit. I agree about the African dog sort of look - I picked out some pretty cool names for one though my first choice was a Spotted Gelert. Seems I'll wait. :)

    I really really hope you're wrong about the prices not going to change though.

    Even if there is a new pet colour, I don't really understand the massive rise in price considering it's been Tarla'd a few times :/

    it rose because ppl inflators them. and because the lup looks cool giving an incentive for people buying them.

    ive always imagined that if they released spotted lupes they would look like dalmatians. guess i was wrong :D.. the price is sure to deflate sometime, its expensive now because people want to be the first to have that coloured lupe once they get tired it will deflate.

    The new price update from looking at the TP is around 1.3mil.
    Lawl, wont be getting one anytime soon.

    I know it's since people want a Lupe NOW, but I still find the price raise insane. It's spotted, most of the pets are ugly. xD They're not that nice, but then, I guess some people are that desperate for them

    Out of interest, did anybody get one? :p

    I'm kicking myself for not buying a bunch a couple days ago. I could have got ahold of four of them for 400k each, but I decided that it wasn't worth the hassle to borrow the points from my sister. It'd have been less for all of them than what one sells for now. Silly me.

    Personally, I kind of like a few of the spotted pets. Unis, Koi and Gelerts are cute, imo. The Gelert looks maaaaad sweet doublepainted pirate.

    I'm sure that they'll continue to be Tarla'd, so they should deflate in price. Shame that I couldn't profit off it, though.

    Not telling because you'll just be jealous psshh..
    I only really like Spotted Kois. The price inflating just for Spotted Lupes is a little dumb >.< but I guess most people like them. I think it will deflate.. slowly, but it will NOT stay at around 1 million forever. I'd rather have a Usukiboy than a Spotted Lupe.

    Someone could always be inflating them as well xD

    But 2 mil sounds kinda ridiculous now
