http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=(ID HERE)

Basically by searching ID by ID to see which have hatched and which haven't. Just keep switching out the IDs at the end of the URL to find different dragons. You can also use the URL to see what the latest IDs hatched are.

ahhh thanks XAN...as always super generously helpful =D

Maybe the user would trade for a G1 with the same hatchdate?

We're going at like 45k dragons per day, give or take a few. Is your date coming up soon?

Awesome congrats ^^

I've yet to get any birthday dragons (except one I hatched on my birthday but not correct id) I must keep an eye out.

is 300k too much to pay for this boy? he has two unnamed offspring, but i don't really care about that and he's so pretty omg



there's a good chance i won't be able to get him because someone else is interested in him and i think that they can pay the price >.< fingers crossed though!

300k is reasonably decent if you don't care about the offspring, I think? You could get a fully gened coatl for just a little more, but the colors really are lovely.

they're willing to take an unhatched egg as partial payment, and although i have three, i think that it'd be wiser to just pay the 300k? because when the color wheel expands, the eggs will increase in price. i don't care an awful lot about the offspring and i adore sky primary and i think that i might be able to get him because the other person declined! hopefully i don't get gen one fever after this lol, i also hope i can make all this cash back after the upcoming dom battle!

 

[Xanarcah]

Man, I've never really bothered with selling G1s for ages, but after getting 1500g yesterday and my auction reaching 1200 today, I might have to start. o:

Depends on what they value the eggs at? If you watch the AH, you can find underpriced eggs pretty frequently.

they valued them at 175k, which is pretty high, but i have a feeling i can make that much back and more this week/this month. i have some items i've been too lazy to put on the AH (gradishes, bamboo shoots, cleaver, etc.) that i think could get me some treasure! i got the coatl, i just don't know what genes to put on him now, leaning towards iri/facet but i'm not sure yet. i love his snowbelly so i think i'll keep that part basic

165k for eggs is lowest in the AH, so you could have offered in eggs and then just buy them back for cheaper and save yourself some money. o:

Sky primary is one of my favorites because of the snowbelly effect. : D also it's a lovely shade of blue.

 

[inkling]

So I did find one of my bday dergs (that exists or hasnt been exalted) and I sent the owner a message. She said she's not sure if she's willing to part with it due to the fact that she bought it for her own bday, which surprised me, (not bc bday twin but bc she mentioned it was so nonchalantly) bc it seemed random. She did ask how much I was thinking of offering. To be honest its a bad time for me to buy bc of BotFF, but I don't want to pass this chance up without trying.

I need your guys help/advice for offering. I know its prob pretty subjective but I'm not even sure where to start. Especially since at this point I'd have to ask her to hold her till next week if she accepted my offer. So...

How much have you offered/paid for your bday dergs? How much do you think this girl is worth? Her id is too perfect. Its not weird or awkward. And she's actually kinda pretty.





I appreciate any/all opinions. TYSM to whoever decides to respond in advance.

oh goshdarnit haha oh well, i would've saved around 10k i think? so hopefully that won't bite me back haha. i almost automatically love any kind of dragon with a sky primary because it's just so pretty, especially with iridescent or something. i wish that the violet was lighter so that i could use butterfly, it'd be so pretty

hm, i was on the birthday ID spreadsheet yesterday and noticed people offering 50k for their birthday dragons? i don't know if that's the norm or if they really wanted their dragon. if you want, i can give you the link to the spreadsheet so you can see what the standard price is! people seem to be willing to pay a lot depending on the date, how badly do you want the dragon? i'm hoping i don't miss out on 20130707 because it's a really important date to me haha

I would personally offer based on it being a dragon that someone else is attached to for reasons other than being a birthday ID. 50k or 75k for a fodder birthday ID dragon normally isn't bad, but that's not what gives this dragon value to its current owner. Maybe ask and see how much she paid for the dragon originally, and if she has a price estimate on what it would take to give up the dragon and then go from there?

Another way to think about it is: do you have any dragons in your lair that you're attached to for sentimental reasons? A good friend gave it to you, or you got it to commemorate an event or person or animal? How much money would it take for you to give up that dragon? Conversely, how much is this birthday ID worth to you? IDs are special because there's really only 1 of it in the game (barring moving the numbers around in different orders), and their value can differ from person to person based on how much their want it.

Other than that, my advice is to make a really good offer for it, right from the start.

Last week I had someone message me, interested in one of my dragons, who I liked but was more than willing to hear offers on at the time. Their opening offer was pretty bad, and it left an extremely mediocre impression on me. I turned them down and they offered me something marginally better, but still somewhat eh. They mentioned they were going to work their way up in value. At that point I figured it wasn't worth the time. Their offering pattern told me that they wanted my dragon, but also wanted to get a good deal on it to save themselves money.
vs
Yesterday I had that pastel G1 I was looking for offers on. Someone offered me around what I might get if I auctioned it, right off the bat. That offer told me they were serious; serious enough to cut to the chase. It made me sit up and pay attention to them. I promptly accepted and cancelled all my other "LF Offers" posts featuring that dragon. If they had said "i dunno maybe 70k or something lol. is that enough I might be able to offer more?", I might have just written them off too.

Sure, link me to the spreadsheet! And 50k is not bad at all, especially for something so special. At least I have a place to start. Good luck finding your date!

cheeeeezy dont get the coatl

you'll regret it once you see the offspring later D:

 

[brutalitea]

Dragon with 200m ID was born just a bit ago!

Someone managed to hatch a triple Gen 1 noc while trying to get the number lol. I believe the triple's ID is 20,000,051?
