Banning for selling TBT at an inflated price is utterly laughable and would only help to ruin the staff's credibility.

I agree. We already know a strict AC fansite out there. We don't want TBT to become another bad site like that.

The truth is that patching the duping bug (which I hope it happens) is going to do nothing about the TBT rate. Because of the collectibles craze (especially the chocolate cake collectible), TBT rate is only going to increase. That's how desperate people are for TBT. It's not the in-game Bells that continue to be created. I think it has to do with the collectibles.
 
Even if the duping glitch is patched, you can easily get around 10mil if you sell 160 (storage slots)turnips for 500-600. So like Apple stated above me, getting bells won't be an issue what-so-ever. I'm amazed tho at how much people can go crazy for collectibles. Special how high priced they are.

Well, I think lots can and could be done about it. If the mods wanted to they could just ban the member for wanting to sell tbt for such high prices :p Its an exaggeration but, anything is possible.

Mods aren't going to devote hours of time into making sure inflation doesn't happen.
 
The duping bug won't ever be patched. Nintendo clearly doesn't care enough, or else they'd of done it long ago.

That or they just don't know how to properly patch it, as the mechanics are basically the same as the GTS duplication glitch which also was never patched.

The prices shouldnt really drop because you can't do much at all with in game bells therefore people should be paying more for TBT bells. I think the price should be high...!

I don't see why it would be to high. With as bad as the ACNL economy is TBT rates have to be high to keep up. Also consider tact that the TBT bells are unique to our site, and the ACNL economy extends way further into other sites like Reddit.

Wait, do you think the price should be raised, or be fixed at 5 million or 6 million? I am confused.
 
I wonder if discontinuing the chocolate cake collectible (like removing it from the site) will lower the rate.
 
So, apparently it's not high enough:
Backed by the ever popular demand (...or is it supply?),
conversion rate decided to kinda bypass 7, 8 & 9 and head straight for a perfect 10!
(Must be a Whovian...) I can't wait to see 11, 12 & 13 -
and what would be the bursting point ?
:D

It's funny, because I'm actually currently running a thread where I'm buying 100 TBT for 10 Mil. It's like, Animal Crossing has personally become kind of boring in the last couple of months. Being here, active on this forum, is what makes the gaming experience funner. Hence why I'm now into buying TBT. I guess I've become more interested in buying collectibles, etc., just because of how fun it is to meet and trade with new people.
 
I see both in-game bells and TBT bells as highly valuable. I prefer having over 1,000 TBT while I have over 100,000,000 Bells in my in-game ABD.

10 million
im crying

the economy here
oh man
 
Aaaaaand there are people asking for 15M for 100 TBT.
It's a good thing I never cared too much for TBT haha.
 
I never thought i would see 10 mil per tbt. Merely because dropping that much bells or even doing the retail method is so tedious and time consuming. Having said that, i never thought i would see the day it went more then 5 mil and i have been wrong on that... I would think there is a point where it would just stop escalating because its just too much time spent versus what you gain, but i guess we need to wait it out to see what that point is.
