PLEASE. STOP. COMPLAINING. ABOUT. PRICES. ;A;

People collect Pokemon cards.
And pays hundreds.
For one card.
And they could collect these creatures, for cheaper.

So, please stop.

People can and will complain about everything and anything. Telling them to stop won't actually make them stop. 😉

bunnyshadow • 15 September 2011 at 11:19 PM

:/ @crooton1 just ignore them 😊

I don't complain about the prices, I ask for them to be changed.

Because with today's economy, not a lot of people can pay $5 for basically pixels. With pokemon cards, if they're in good condition, one day they can sell them and get their money's worth plus more as the rarity goes up. I doubt in 20 years we can sell our accounts.

And, more people would pay for the eggs if they're cheaper.
I could see my mom being more lenient for 2.50 for an egg, than a whole 5 bucks.

...I doubt in 20 years that, that many people will still be collecting pokemon cards. Collecting is a hazard unto itself and if you're trying to make money off of it, then you're usually setting yourself up for failure.

That being said, complaining is very annoying considering no one is actually making anyone buy these works of art. They are simply there and if you want one then you have to pay the price, end game.

Not to mention if you work out the equation, which is partially probability based on the fact that the creatures have to be likable to a certain degree, than the profit made by decreasing the price of things and the profit Ian makes now completely cancel each other out...

In the end the only thing that would happen is that more people would have these eggs and things and less trading would happen because of this.

Thank you for your time. 😊

@christened_moon

I know someone who has collected magazines since before I was born. So, I still think in 20 years people will be collecting pokemon cards, because they're so popular now. [And I'm not collecting anything, if that's what you mean, roflrofl]
A lot of collectors buy the super mega rares now, and keep them in mint condition, and sell them later on for profit.


Also, I'm not complaining because I post my reasons [To me complaining is whining, and whining is just saying stuff without anything; "PRICES ARE TOO HIGH D: //end of post//]

I think 2.50 is fine, because you still have to pay money [not a lot of people can, like my friend @sushi] but it's not arm and leg.

In my personal opinion; I don't think it should be based off of rarity. I just get creatures I like.

But, the way prices are going, sales //may// [I say may, because I'm not a psychic.] fall a bit. Because some people may become tired of paying so much for basically, again, pixels.

3 eggs a month x $5 = 15 a month
$15 x 12 months = $180 a year.

I'm fine with "paying the price" I just this this price here is too much. I don't mind paying for the egg in general.


Sorry if I'm jumbled, I'm tired xD Little ol' me can't pull myself from the computer

Agreed. Although, I can't exactly talk, I'm not allowed to spend my money on dis.
But if I could, I would 😋
Well, some of it.

thursdays_dove • 16 September 2011 at 12:44 AM

Things cost money. That's pretty much all I have to say. >.>

james-bond • 16 September 2011 at 12:51 AM

I didn't even know people were complaining. If they're too expensive for you, don't buy them. Who cares. The end.

cafe • 16 September 2011 at 12:52 AM

I guess it's just my opinion then, which is fine. Everyone is entitled to their own. :]

@crooton1

Gah, that annoys me too. D:
People = IF YOU THINK IT'S TOO EXPENSIVE, DON'T BUY IT.

gvantsa • 16 September 2011 at 11:46 PM

There's nothing wrong with making suggestions. Some really want those eggs and because of their own personal situation and experience it may seem expensive. Why compare them to collectors willing to pay any price for their collections? They're different people with different situations. If you do not agree though with those making suggestions about the prices simply say no in their suggestion topic instead of making a brand new topic elsewhere and addressing them indirectly. 😋

This is kind of rude. People can think whatever they think, you can't tell them what to do.
