The difference in TBT and IGB value is purely due to the fact there is far less TBT than there is IGB in existence worldwide (think exchange rates of fiat currency in reality) on top of TBT being more useful in terms of what you can do with it. TBT can be used for trading in any online-capable AC game (cross-game), collectibles, artwork, and other digital goods (Flight Rising stuff, etc.). Additionally, TBT is much easier to exchange than IGB in vast amounts and TBT is harder to produce/can’t be duplicated.

I thought the same when I first joined . Like it’s crazy how much stuff you can get for just 1 TBT.

I agree with this so so much- I've been trying to figure out if theres something I'm missing, but I guess in a way some people could scam, (hopefully not) I'm still pretty new to this forum, but it does seem a little too good to be true-

People just like collecting stuff and a lot of the popular collectibles are fairly expensive. They don't make comebacks often and when they do, they are very limited.

I guess that makes sense, thx!

I love this thread, because it reminds me again to not take this community for granted! TBT is versatile, and it's one of the few currencies that you actually need to expend real-world mental and physical effort to accrue. When I first started buying and selling here for ACNL I also thought it was way too good to be true!!!

I could be wrong about this, but I also interpret the crazy low bell deals from the usual sellers as incentive to get you in the store. I don't think I've ever JUST purchased bells. I would personally feel bad about it since it's such a great deal, so I always try and get a few things at a time to make it worth the sellers' effort. I don't see a lot of people ONLY purchase IGB at a time, but I may just not be paying attention!
