I have two questions, so I figured this would be better than making two topics. Question 1: When do items given by the advent calendar become retired? Is there like a certain timeline of how this works out? Do they all eventually become retired? Or do they automatically become retired? Question 2: What is the likelihood that secret lab map pieces will inflate even more
most become retired in the next 2 years, but some, like christmas paintbrush do not i'm not sure, but i suppose the cheap bits will inflate, and i don't see how the expensive ones can hope this helps
As far as I'm aware, the items don't retire at a set time, but it's usually a month or two before the Advent Calendar 're-opens' so to speak, so you'd be looking at October/November time. This isn't always the case though and some items have been retired much earlier. I haven't heard of any items taking longer than a year to retire though.. I don't think lab maps are a good investment at the moment, personally, if that's what you're referring to. I think the fact that they keep being Tarla'd every so often and that KeyQuest is giving them out as prizes too means that the prices are at risk of dropping even lower.
Thank's, both of you. Yes, these are mostly in relation to me looking for items to hoard. I have been iglooing every night and have gotten about three secret lab map pieces the past week and was considering hoarding, since I was getting them free. But selling them for over 150k+ each is good right now. Looks like I'll stick right now to going out and buying a lot of recent advent calendar items and hoping my account doesn't get iced.
Yeah, I wouldn't recommend lab maps as an investment right now. Tarla and KQ are giving them out like crazy, so certain pieces are deflating a lot. You could just hoard the ones that aren't being given out, but a) they could be given out in the future and b) Unless demand goes way way up again, it's not likely they'll inflate, because there's a constant supply of them through REs.
Hmm, from what I've seen the advent calendar prizes usually retire during December of the following year. And for lab map, it will probably inflate more so if you have the money now and you want the lab ray, I suggest you get it now. Or you could wait for Tarla to drop all the pieces, that is how I got my second lab map, haha not a penny spent!
