    Hmm..there was an older thread here saying that every 17th is HT sale..

    just checked today using my 8.1/2 years account..no sale =.=" and i bought a Baby PB for 600k and had to sell it for 595k..

    can anyone verify that for me?

    is there a sale?

    I've heard it's the 3rd wednesday of every month?

    I've also heard it's the 17th?

    I don't know because my account isn't old enough :(

    Oh, well... 3% isn't an awful lot... :(
    Thanks for the answer, though!

    It's enough for it to be worth it...has caused tiny deflation in some of the HT weps being sold in trades/auctions...and for the ones that haven't really deflated, some people can make a nice little profit once a month just by buying from HT and then reselling :p

    no problem, and yeah..3% isn't too much, but for some of the more expensive HT weaps...3% isn't too little either xD

    3% of the most expensive item, PCC, is still 480k lol.

    LOL, you're right! 450k is more than I own at the moment...
    But then again, if I had enough NP's to buy a PCC just as an investment, 450K might seem little to me ^^

    sadly, PCC's sell for around 15.25m, so buying it with the discount will still be a loss :p

    What location? ;o
    Well, in general, HT items sell for less than their HT price, so I don't think it's very profitable ): If so, the market would be flooded with HT items, hehheh xD

    I guess you /could/ get a little more than that, but 15.25 would be the ETS price :)

    Iheard it was random, but that doesnt make sense.
    They should just post something about it in the news, so it could be clarified.

    On the discount day, if you're old enough, you WILL be able to see that you're buying at a discounted price because the price listed will change. So if it says the baby pb costs 600k, it will cost 600k.

    can anyone else verify this? if this is it, it will be much simpler.

    a question, will they be out of stock? :D..

    IMO, if u are rich enough, u can always still earn small but easy money. the HT items price are usually around a certain level and they wouldn't deflate like half a mil or anything. and if u are realllyyyy lucky, u might be holding on to 3 or 4 of a certain item and TNT decides to just retired that item and you will be filthy rich in like a few months.
