    Apparently speckled paint brushes are being given out at random times, something to do with the neopets toolbar? Not too sure.
    But there r180 AND retired, atm its been flooded with them. Selling for about 100k each. Seen them up on TP for about 400k

    second post

    Ive already bought 10!

    May be a good idea, but the problem is that items that are Tarla'd once tend to get Tarla'd again.

    I have no clue - I've just been told that hoarding Tarla stuff is risky for the aforementioned reason.

    Ironic because the pb actually got tarla'd again later in the day. I have no clue if it'll get Tarla'd again. Thing is, are speckled pbs really in demand enough to inflate?

    I hate it when Tarla releases retired items. Whats the point in retiring items if you're just gonna release masses of them later?!

    ahhh, well. It only cost me a measly mil or so, so why not.
    By all accounts its safe right? Theres no way a r180 retired could ever go below 99k for long.
    The only way it goes from here is up, and sooner or later - unless neopets plans on flooding it for ETERNITY - it'll rocket back up to the hundreds of thousand dont you think?
    So I'm loading up on these babies while their dirt cheap, dont wait too long though.
    Theres quite a few already hoarding them

    I think there may be some potential here, but it's risky. Some people are, as you say, hoarding them though. There were several buyable on the sw last night and none now.

    It's a good thought, I just don't think that Speckled Pbs will be in demand.
    I mean, Lost Desert Pbs were retired FOREVER ago, and they haven't inflated much.
    I've had mine for over a year, and it's only gone up 300k.

    A year is a very small timespan. Item's may take 4-5 years to inflate, and once they do, they explode in price. Cough cough snowbunnies.

    yes, but most people don't fell like waiting 4-5 years, lol. most people want quick cash, an d quick inflation. I really would suggest not inflating it, as tarla gave it once, then twice, and will give it again. any tarla item is not safe to inflate, though it could pay off if your willing to risk alot of NPs to gain a small percentage more o_O

    Wow, you guys sure are great at crushing dreams =P hehehe
    Nahh, well, its relatively low risk at the price i got it at. We shall see what happens.


    Edit: well.. my account just got frozen, that takes away 20 or so out of circulation *shrug*

    If you'll inflate the Speckled PBs, they will give away more PBs with Tarla... so...
