I truly think that we are sitting on a bubble here. The vast majority of posters on tbt dont care about the tbt bells. Only a few who are into collectibles or who are temporarily on the hunt for them because they want a bigger mail box, etc. care about them. Once those people buy all that they need, there wouldnt be that many buyers, and the prices will gradually come down.
Ok! Who pushed the TBT exchange rate back up to 800k again?

FLASHBACK TO THE DAYS WHEN THE EXCHANGE RATE WAS 1 TBT BELL = 1,000 IN GAME BELLS
not trying to be rude but you've got no one else to blame for the inflation except yourselves, if you didn't try 'beat' each other with a higher exchange rate then it wouldn't be an issue. so please stop complaining.

wat better things have u gone off to plz tell me i am begging u!!!!!!!!!!1
Because people desire TBT bells only because others like them even though the most expensive item in the store is a few thousand bells lol, so they keep buying them for what reason I have no idea (convenience for out of animal crossing trades? But that convenience is lost when you have to make 20 billion trips to ATM just to pay for 100 TBT as it inflates), then people realize others only trade out of AC items (ex: Pokemon) for TBT (since it is more "convient" - not really you spent time to gather that TBT...) so then they too buy TBT. BUT WAIT they want the TBT fast to outbid for that code or pokemon so they make threads with even higher prices for TBT.
Stick to AC bells people!

I agree the rate is really high these days, but when I first joined this forum back in october, the rate was 400,000 bells to 100 tbt bells... And you and flop and a few others were part of a wave of people who pushed it up from that mark! So, i dont know, is it fair to criticize people from doing the same thing?

Yeah, but they have a right to push it higher. Its whatever the market will bear, right?
The last time I was able to buy any tbt bells was when the rate was 500k to 100. And i thought it was expensive then! Then I got priced out of the market because people who had more bells then me came along and offered more.
Now its happening again. But if it was ok to push the rate from 500k to 600, then to 861, etc., you cant be sour when the same tactic is used against you. Just join the rest of us in the poor boat graciously.

Pretty much what Violet said.
People are always going to get the better deal for themselves. That's just how it works.

Yep.. like someone said before, whoever is the richest will control the market!
ACNL bells are easy to come by with turnips, bug catching, and unfortunately coughdupingcough. I'm pretty sure a lot of sellers ARE duping, because i don't see how they are restocking so much of rare unorderables so frequently. I don't even see some of them buying stuff from the Retail section using ACNL bells.
