    174 mil for a stamp? Maybe the economy is a bit wilder than it was back when I was active, but ONE-HUNDREND AND SEVENTY-FOUR MILLION?!

    Its going-rate is 300m-400m. It was a Lenny Conundrum prize a longg time ago and you need it to complete a stamp page. Plus its good for avatar collectors because once you fill up the Virtupet stamp page, you get an avatar.

    Makes sense. It's still an unthinkable amount of NP for me, coming from a time when Honey Potions could be bought with the shop wizard...

    What exactly caused this hyperinflation in recent years? If inflation continues at this rate, the really rare items will probably costs billions of np in a few more years...

    2.2 the last sold for? However... There are some doubts about the legitimacy of some of the SuaPS currently kicking around.

    the stamp is worth around 300m, its actually one of the cheaper r101 stamps

    everyone is expecting it to end at nearly full value, hopefully goes to someone who is going to album it

    that set is really easy except for that stamp

    no stamp has hit the 500m mark yet...although people would like to think some of their stamps are worth that much, not even golden mr irgo goes for that, maybe midnight jelly world would...but i dont think they even exist anymore, well see if they put one of those out

    Do you the know most expensive stamp out there? Do you think a stamp will ever reach that mark(500M+) in the future I.E if the stamp gets retired?

    I think midnight jelly world stamp is more than 500m, but all of these stamps will eventually hit that if tnt doesn't keep releasing them so often

    Would releasing 1 r101 stamp every month really affect prices though? I don't know if TNT is going to keep releasing them maybe they are just testing it out

    I just realized could they be doing these to try and find out the rich cheaters? Like if it's in the 100's of millions and people are using auction snipers

    245 mil

    well so far both winners are apparent cheaters

    the p00page guy who won this stamp adopted majal_kita when it was cged and tried selling it back to featheralley, and hes also scammed people apparently

    When an auction goes into the 100's of millions people dont need auction snipers because there are only so many people bidding. When p00page won the Scary Tree Stamp a few days age, him and one other person were the only people bidding so there would be no point in using an auction sniper because you could risk it. Its better to do it legit.
