Right this morning i was in my shop as i normally am. A habbo came in and said ill have them trophies 11hc and a few lodge corners. So as i do i said "offer". He offered a Bronze Dragon showed it and cancelled trade box while i was picking the stuff up... When the trading came along, he put a red dragon in instead. It looks very alike and i was really really close to doing it, i checked habbox for the icons and they both looked very similar. Only way i did find out was that i cancelled trade and asked him to show again and he put the Bronze dragon Back in and i noticed a tiny shade change. All im saying is watch out when you are trading for Bronze Dragons its very easy to be caught out. Stay safe people, watch out for this.

Theys quite a few like that, i've had someone put a red pillow in then when i went to trade them they put a red doormat in.

Half of the time people don't look and they just trade as they think the other person will put what they said they would offer in. Its wise to check that you've got what they offered and what you offered so you don't get scammed or anything.

Always do the bit in bold. It's the easiest way to make sure you're getting the furniture you want, if 2 icons look very similar.

Three people i know got tricked with this when they first came out. Not very funny either. Thanks for the warning though as others probably didn't know this. :P

I have no idea why habbo made those look so similar... really stupid tbh.

Yeah, but its not exactly 'new' but still thanks. :D

All you do is scroll the mouse point over the item you wanna know what it is called and it will show up just beside the check box.
