    Sure. People are hoarding the stamps in a frenzy, they're currently at around the 90k mark. It's not an item that will have massive value in the future, I predict it's going to actually lower in price once the mess settles down.



    Edit: I think this is the list of items.


    MYSTERY ISLAND AISHAS STAMP
    SOAP BOTTLE
    DENIM COVERALLS
    RAINBOW GUN
    Bubble Blower
    Pepperolive Pizza
    FAERIE PORTRAIT
    EARTH FAERIE ERASER
    RED KYRII PLUSHIE
    BROKEN MIRROR SHIELD
    ORGANIC TOMATO
    HAIR GEL
    GARDEN GLOVES
    GREEN CHAIR
    Cool Wooden Tiki Head

    This always happens. If something is newly retired/an r101 item that is no longer available everyone goes OMG buybuybuy and wait for it to hit millions. I think there's a lot of noob investors buying these, because for a once r30 stamp that's just been retired it shouldn't be worth 100k this fast.

    That's just the stamp though, I wouldn't think the other items are worth investing at all.

    The largest profits to be made are by those who are the first to find out about the retirements. They're able to scoop up huge quantities of these items and then sell them, for massive returns, 12/24 hours later once other people are getting in on the frenzy.

    I agree with this but In addition those who store them in SDB for LARGE periods of times (i mean like years) also got much to gain because lot of noob inflaters just wanna grab neopoints fast and sell it when they think it's worth it. :D

    To be honest, rainbow gun was my first bought weapon. I saw that Chia Clown beat me with it and bought 2 of them at a insanely price (was about 15-20k ?) and was the only noob to use it in 2 battles (at least from what I battled) :D

    I'm not investing in anything because there won't be any profit from any of this. o_O

    Yeah, i have plenty of retired items in my SDB and none of struck me a fortune yet. It's not really a ticket to wealth. Not even snicklebeasts are really inflating at all, and they've been retired for years.

    I bought for 30-60k each stamp, selling for 90-95k
    not bad.. but yeah whoever figures out what has been retired first can make huge profit
    but @ 100np sell at 100 000 np
    1000% profit
