Yeah, so I heard someone on the neo boards saying that royal pb would retire, and that's because they make the new magma color.. I was just wondering if anyone else heard it, or is it just a rumour?
As far as I know, that's just a rumor. *If* it happens to be true, though...Royal PBs seem like a very good investment.
Yeah and you wouldn't lose anything if they don't retire as they're ets .. hmm. think I'm gonna buy some XD
unless they inflate slightly from inflation due to this kind of speculating i guess they can only go up to around what they're sold for in the ht so it's all about calculating risk and deciding whether or not the gamble is worth it i won't be investing in them at this preliminary stage (although i guess 1 couldn't hurt)
I don't think it would retire. At most, they would just say... Because of popular demand, Fyora has incread the Royal Paint Brush to ###### NP!
I'm very wary of any HT related investments atm, I've heard that the trident was introduced to suck Neopoints out of the economy and the new draik eggs stock for a fair chunk (though obviously worth the restock ), in which case I doubt anything will get retired for a while. If I was to invest I'd go for the less popular HT items cause if TNT are trying to make Neopoints more scarce and they want to retire something from the HT they would take out an unpopular item eg. slorg flakes and put in a new paintbrush or something that is relatively expensive, that would suck a good chunk of neopoints out of the economy. It makes sense, really because the people who 'theoretical' work harder to earn their neopoints eg. people who play games legitly would be better off as if people had less pure even highly desirable items like draik eggs should deflate. It must be remembered that the main source of neopoints on the site are from games, that's the reason everything inflates so much, as there are few ways neopoints leave the economy. I <3 the neopian economy I wish I had done more economics. Interestingly if theories are correct that TNT wants to have less pure around the best investment could be to hold on your pure. Sadly for me, I have no choice *kicks stupid HTS items rotting in SDB*
That's interesting about making investments. My investments apart from stocks have been terrible so far. I bought 6 christmas paintbrushes and they're still so cheap! I think it'd be good to get hands on a Royal PB though. It's still a valuable item and would be worth it even if it didn't retire. I have a suspicion that they will retire it though. Royal pets are supposed to be rare, and it would be very sensible for them to retire it. I'm off to get mine!
Alright. Considering Usukicon Y9 just retired, I highly doubt something as major as Royal PBs will be retired anytime soon.
No one should ever invest in Xmas p/bs- even if they were to retire, or if they weren't soo commonly gotten from Tarla, RE's, advent, etc. , there's TONS floating around. I'd bet alot of users have/are stockpiling them.
Royal PB will not retired since it is in a shop where it does sell pricey and exclusive items. Magma PB might be for a new event or random event.
It would be nice if they retired hidden tower items more often but they probably wont. I have the np to invest in a couple but Id rather use it for restocking.
If they retire the Royal Paint Brush and replace it with Magma, wow, I'll be mad. I'm pretty sure many other users will, too. Hopefully they just make Magma a new colour, not a replacement...
