It's already too late. Nobody will sell TBT at that low rate anymore. In fact, 20 million per 100 is by fact considered too low for trade.

Actually, ignore that last sentence. This is an exaggeration on how bad the rate is.

I never understood why it keeps going up. Does someone suddenly ask for more and it shoots up? Pretty ridiculous imo.

Plus, to me it seems like only the buying/selling rate is changing. People aren't changing the prices of their items/collectibles which to me seems pretty unfair. If TBT is becoming worth more, shouldn't a small amount be a fortune? In the end, buying a collectible for 1000k+ TBT given the current conversion rates is a total rip-off.

It's not just the increase in supply of IG Bells. It's the obsession over collectibles. There are only some collectibles like the chocolate cake that I wanted to begin with. The golden egg, green pinwheel, pokeball, and rainbow feather, I still like them, but I don't need these collectibles.

This^ What's the big deal with collectibles anyway? I mean, if I see an exclusive one in the shop that I can afford I'll buy it just to get a little souvenir, but the way people obsess over the chocolate cake, fruit, and letters is ridiculous. What are those really going to do for you? Make you look "cool"? Make your sidebar look nice? I'd rather spend my TBT on something I can actually use.

Certain items like eggs, Pokeballs, and other exclusives I can see but come on. Y'all need Jesus.

Yeah, it keeps moving up fast. I am even too slow to catch up with this hyperinflation. During the CF era, 1 million per 100 TBT is too high. Now, with money being easier made than ever before, this is too low for us.

That's true too. If the price of TBT goes up to 20 million per 100 TBT and the white feather price goes back up to 50K TBT, then that equals 10 billion bells for one white feather. You can't even hold five billion in one town. And this is time consumig.

I like the chocolate cake, apple, and peach collectibles, as well as the balloons and birthstones, but you're right. I don't see any worth in letters, and charging 12K TBT for one letter sounds like a rip-off too me. I also don't like candies, eggs (save the golden egg), and the regular cake collectible. And look at how much they're charging for a Pokeball! Clearly, more pokeballs have been sold than yellow letters, and they charge more for a Pokeball!

I think it will stay high as long as there are people low on IGB who don't need thier TBT as much or have more than one town and have much less IGB than most.

Currently I've been seeing TBT as low as 6mil per 100 and as high as 12mil per 100, I haven't seen higher then 12mil but the prices are getting pretty crazy now considering it takes ages to transfer 12mil bells (4+locker visits either way). I remember back when I started on the forums 100 TBTs was worth 800k and I thought it was a pretty good trading rate compared to now, where everything is 10x the price then what it was a year ago.

The solution is simple but hard to do... lower the prices on trading collectibles to TBT or vice versa/ get the admin or site creator or whoever controls the shop to release more stocks more often/ get EVERYONE to lower their prices...

P.S. I just got shot down trading my igb to tbt... Offered 7 mill but apparently was offered 12 mill elsewhere lol

Within the past month, I returned to the forums and the TBT-ingame Bell exchange was completely new to me. I hadn't been on since March of last year, and even then it was much harder to get items and villagers. Having TBT Bells as an extra currency has made it a lot easier!
