Events & Collectibles General Discussion

When people are asking for star fragment collectibles, why are they only asking for 1,000 TBT per unlimited stock star fragment? I thought that there would be more TBT into circulation now that the site is more active. What has changed?

people are equating them to normal unlimited stock feathers

I think it's partly because of the fact that they're "unlimited" in stock. They will probably go up in value after the fair is over and there are no more available to purchase from the shop.

also just because there are more active members doesn't mean that more TBT will be in circulation. a lot of the rich members either have left the site or like to hold onto their tbt rather than spend it, and many people now who have tbt in the thousands-range usually only use it for NH stuff and don't spend it on collectibles or anything like that.

idk I'm just making an educated guess here.

that makes sense, plus the fact that many of them aren't in super high demand (like the plushies).

I wish some of the active rich members would share some of their TBT. I can understand why they wouldn’t part with their Bells at 20,000, but not 50,000 or higher. I am way below 10,000 TBT again, and I would like to get back up there again.

I would also wager that the average user probably has less than 1k or certainly not much more. New users are also probably unfamiliar with tbt currency and/or collectibles. And a lot of people probably also use their tbt for NH items as that’s what a lot of people like to trade with especially since the use of NMTs has gone down.

i can't speak for every "rich" member, but i personally collected/saved for 4-5 years to earn what i have now. i give away tons of collectibles + tbt all the time, i just don't make giveaway threads because that's not how i prefer to do it. i don't think it's very fair to guilt people into "sharing" something they've worked hard to earn, it's not like it's a necessity. it's forum currency lol. it just takes time to save up, and you have to be able to resist the urge to spend it.

That’s true. If I were to sell my unlimited stock fragments for 2,000 TBT a piece one way or the other, I could bump once a week like how I sold my red and green feathers. One bump a week may keep my selling thread open for two to three months with as few posts as possible. By then, people would buy them at that price.

Never thought I’d see you as a communist but here we are

If no one will sell the collectible I want then I won’t buy things

ya know, most people don't follow up their complaints about the rich hoarding wealth with how they aspire to be rich(er) themselves

I'm glad to see that people are treating the fragments like the feathers value-wise since that is what they are essentially this TBT Fair. I'm definitely curious to see how the values change though after the fair and see which ones are rarer compared to the other colors (like how the yellow feather is rarer than the red feather for example).

In terms of the idea of people hoarding their TBT, they earned it and they can do what they want with it. lol To see otherwise is socialist thinking and would not be for the best interest of the TBT economy.

 

[xSuperMario64x]

^^ true

like I only have around 1.5k tbt right now and yeah I'd like to get more but I also know that I have to earn it myself. I could never reasonably see myself just talking to one of TBT's rich members and being like "bruh share some of your tbt w me "

Well, now I regret complaining about others hoarding their wealth then. I was interested into seeing more wealth into circulation, to keep the market going. But since I’ve been given a reputation as a communist (people with no souls), I take that back.

if you want wealth redistributed take a stab at jingle

Is it still possible to view a collectibles properties (gift-able, unique, etc.) aside from viewing it from an inventory?

To my knowledge, that's the only way to know now. If someone has found another way, I would like to know as well for curiosity sake.
