*Curses* Just tried to buy a smoke scroll for a friend while my husband still has the lightning discount and got a freaking gembond even though I clicked on smoke. I'm so ticked right now. Going to have to sell my shimmer scroll just to make up the difference and try again... Since it wasn't my money. I feel ill right now. :'( *Head desk*

Ya, it was. :( We managed to snipe 5 out of the 6 smoke scrolls you wanted. He sent them your way. Don't worry about the gembond scroll. I'll keep it. It's on my needs list anyway. Just hadn't planned to buy it yet. Ugh. We'll have the treasure for that last smoke scroll we missed back to you tomorrow once auctions sell. After this experience I think I'm done trying to snipe the MP for awhile at least until they fix that bug. I hadn't even clicked on gembond. *still irritated*

And now maintenance hits when I'm in the middle of a coliseum winning streak. That's it. I think it's time to head to bed. *sigh*

Aww. That's very sweet of you. Thanks so much! I was SO worried last night when it popped up that I bought the wrong gene when I clearly clicked the right one. *Hug* I'd heard of other people (even here) having had that happen, but up until then, I'd never seen it myself. Ugh. Thank you for being so very kind and understanding! *Huge hugs*

Fuck. I'm going to miss the ENTIRE festival, it seems. Ugh. I am so bummed out you have no idea. I wasn't on the site for the first lightning festival and now I'm going to miss this one too.
I mean, I'm excited about camping but.... still.

Siggy under construction!

Hey, if you need festival stuff, let us know. I usually end up with spare items if I don't want the whole stuff.

It's true. Even when I put up dragons that are ostensibly worth something (TG ripple/current with a tight range, f'rex), they just don't sell. If it's not 5k exalt bait, nothing ever moves. I still have nests backed up and I can't hatch them because NOTHING EVER MOVES.

And lair upgrades cost too damn much; I'm already at something stupid like 500k+ for the next one, it's ludicrous. How the hell can I afford a lair expansion if I can't sell any dragons and the dumbass games and daily chores net me like 500t. They aren't even interesting chores.

someday I'll find someplace to host a sig that isn't stupid money-grubbing photobucket

Aaaaaand yet people still wanna say that "the market isn't broken!!" :roll:


What they need to do is really figure out what needs to happen with lair costs because this is fucking ridiculous honestly. No one will buy anything if they don't have the room. And if nothing sells, there's no way to buy the room.

The market is borked. :/ Even a coatl rarely seems to sell for more than 8k- although I don't have any of the new genes.

I agree with all the above. The dragon market is really starting to irk me. I have a ton of really great looking fairly rare colored hatchlings right now and only one person has shown any interest (and they wanted to really low ball me on the price). WTH. I was SO excited about my first smoke nest, even managed to hatch out an X/X/Y and... nothing. Am I just breeding things no one cares about? I certainly never seem to see any interest unless I price them so low that they're nearly exalt bait (which I never want to see). Or is it just that no one has any room or wants to a pay a decent price? I just don't know why I bother anymore. Ugh. *heads off for the day and hopes something moves or that I get decent offers by the time I get home*

Are you guys only trying the AH? Apparently making a sales post on site and on sites like tumblr as well help. And at the end of the day, cut your losses and exalt, don't cut your prices. Keep your product relatively rare, there will be interest. That's the tips I've always heard from successfulish people.

Then again, it does help to be well known and have something unique.

But yeah, the market is very persnickety. It boils down to trying to figure out what's selling, exalting if it doesn't sell, and waiting for the day we have open registration so we have WAY more demand than supply.
