pixels not life

No, especially if it's a rare restock like the hammers or yellow houses. Things like this happen IRL too with collectible cards and figurines

It becomes rare here due to the hoarding done.

 

[LethalLulu]

because making 300% is less efficient, but it's nicer
this isn't irl, so why not be nice and sell cheaper? it's not like you need tbt to survive/live

smh collectibles are literally tearing apart tbt

Because creating a business and making profit is fun. What a concept.

Hey guys, there's a fine line between playing around or feeling a bit frustrated versus actually arguing over collectibles... let's leave this thread on the former side if we can? The last I'd like to do today is be warning folks for posts in this thread of all places.

Not really, they're rare because only 2 or 4 or 6 get restocked.
Also are we really gonna use "hoarding" as a synonym for "keeping the collectibles you wanted in the first place" come on yall

 

[Shinrai]

I'm gonna stop here. As I said, my post was a suggestion and just an opinion blurted out. Again, kudos to everyone who tried and congratulations to whoever got them!

Just to reply and end this conversation.
It isn't when you want them placed in your side display. It becomes hoarding when you buy the item, just planning to resell them at a higher price due to your definition of rarity.

I'll wait for the second re-stock.

You don't understand do you? I understand that you're an admin and that I'm tech being rude but seriously? People hoard collectibles to sell them for more but thats obvious. Some people like how the collectibles look, but that's rare. People take pride in their collectibles, but some scalp them or just show off like a snob. What makes people most enticed to collectibles is between pride or money. If you look at the age poll, then you see most people are around 15-25. People these age don't manage their money or a buisness so it's a whole new real life version of monopoly for them. Most people don't have collectibles because they like them, they have collectibles because it makes them feel like they have so much more power over others

But hoarding by definition is keeping a large amount of things you don't plan to do anything with.
Also we aren't attacking each other so I think this discussion is allowed.

A handful of people manage their money themselves at those ages, myself included. Also I've taken 2 years of business classes, along with entrepreneurship and other things like that, so I do actually know a lot about businesses.

Edit - excuse me, 3 years

i REALLY think you're overthinking it lmao

Is there a study that shows this because I'm pretty sure people have collectibles because either they like them or they're selling them in order to buy something else.

I think everyone's just a bit heated because they didn't get the pricier collectibles and are now blaming it on people who have more than them 'cause they don't know what else to do

I agree, lets keep on topic of this guys, restock hype, be salty after restocks but it has been an hour and 30 minutes, lets all just relax

 

[LethalLulu]

Also funny thing about hoarding. Yah, I have 600 collectibles, but all the ones that are giftable are either in my shop or visible on my sidebar. I also try to be fair with my prices and negotiate. Whatever I get in the next few restocks will fall under those two categories.

 

[Kaiserin]

I'm honestly scared for the house collectibles tomorrow ;w;
It's gonna lag so much!
