I hate it when you trade HC pure for say, snow patches (i did this)

Snowpatches were valued at 2 HC on Habbo X

And then in about a week, they went down by 0.5 each

I was so gutted

Hopefully they'll go up again near Christmas??

They might come out again this Christmas, so if they do, the price of them will drop to about 50 credits, which is a bit annoying, as you might have traded them one day and you bought them then the price drops the next day

Haha, you think that's bad? I hate "supers". I traded 85 pure HC for a silver dragon when they were worth 3T15 something like that.. and how supers can drop value by a throne in a day is beyond me.. now they're worth something like 2T15? :S It's ridiculous. So now I'm stuck with a silver dragon that I don't want, that I've lost a lot of profit on.. which sucks.

Habbox values ARE just a guide, but people don't use them as a guide which is the sad thing. Everyone's just after making profit, and the ony way to do that is to go off of Habbox's values since they're ridiculously overpriced.

Yeah. I'd probably have alot more furni than I have now, if i wasn't banned or hacked at least 4 times.

You could always be nice and give it away? ;]

or you never know. it might gain value again in the near future
I know.

Mostly every furni shop I've been in always says 'NEED PROFIT'

Tbh. Habbo X is a good thing, if you're selling credits
But a bad thing if you're the one buying

I suppose some furni valued on there is fair

But it's not even an official fansite!

Lol. god, i've ranted so much here. haha :D

Exactly my point. When people sell stuff they always ask for Habbox prices and try to get as much profit as they can.. but when it comes to buying, they will always go and find the Habbo's who don't have a clue and will sell stuff for anything, and try to buy stuff as cheap as possible without having to give profit. It's stupid.

It's ridiculous and that's why I personally think that all rares should be priced at the same price as they were when they were released in the catalogue - 25 credits. That way everyone would have a fair chance of getting the rares no matter how rich or poor they are.

Yup! Exactly...

But, as it's unfair on the people who don't know about the values of furni and credits.

Alot of people are willing to give profit.

I agree, which is why I think that Habbo should have their own values table. :)

I hated that too, I'd usually say ''I think it's that you want profit, not need'' then probably leave, and go somewhere else. Oh, the days of equal trading...

I love equal trading. People on my console ask for stuff a lot lately and if I tell them I have it they're like "What do you want for prof?" and I'm just like.. "Erm nothing? Just give me whatever" lol.. Makes there day knowing that they will give me stuff that they feel like giving rather than me saying well I don't want that but give me this and then give me that for prof.. Makes you feel better in yourself too knowing that you haven't ripped people off since they give you what they would like to give you. I find that doing that some people do actually give you more prof too.. not that it bothers me, but out of generosity and appreciation. :)

I hate the profit thing to, really. Equal trading is better, it's just greedy when they ask for like 1 hc more of what it's worth. I always go to someone else if they ask for profit, although it's hard to find someone that doesen't want profit because most of them do for when I trade anyway.

The only time I ask for profit is if say I trade a HC sofa for a lot of norms.. but most people doing that offer profit anyway? lol But yea, fair trading is a big YES for me. :)



YES

Yeah, i agree: Habbo sould have their own values so that it's alot farer and not just how much something is wanted.

I mean if there is a high demand of Petal Patches (Which there isn't really) and people go onto Habbo X and see they're valued at 4 HC PURE EACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (which is ridiculous) then the people selling the petals will want (most likely) rare profit.


But if Habbo UK had their own values and never changed them, then it'd be fair. People wouldn't lose out on days after they've traded so much for it and seen it decrease in value.


Plus Habbo X is only a fansite.
People should remember it's a guide! ;)

Yeah i always want profit when trading for norms lol.

Aha, I've had a very similar experience...

But as mentioned, Habbo X is only a fansite :o
