Why has the Gold Nelly decreased by about a throne in the space of two months? This can't be accurate surely?

I'm not attacking anyone here but it seems Habbox super values seem to be so inaccurate and dont feed me the line "We saw it go for this, we saw it go for that" because at the end of the day, I could quite easily fake trade 10 gold nellys with a clone and you'd think that they'd gone up by 'witnessing' a trade.

It IS accurate. They have been given out in prize grabbers and their current value is what they sell for :) Their demand has dropped, basically.

So you've decided to decrease the price because they've been given out as prizes in a user-owned game?

No, a Habbo-owned game.. and I did NOT decrease the price, I'm not the manager? They have not been selling for their previous price and therefore needed a decrease.

Like I said in my first post, i'm aiming this at Habbox in general not just you.

Habbox IS right, I never claim to be the ultimate expert on supers and I certainly am not, however a lot as Luke said were given out, its happend before, its happened (and before) with the Purple Dragon Lamp, Gold Dragon Lamp, Silver Dragon Lamp, Bronze Dragon Lamp, Dragon Egg, Bird Bath (blue), Bird Bath (red), Grey Share Bear and its even occurred with normal rares such as the Aloe Vera.

ALL of them have decreased like this before, and they will do it again, and again .. and again a long time after we have all left. The Golden Elephant is no exception now, will not be in the future and has not been in the past.

I think you should make a stickied thread which explains how habbox works

I think you should also include that the values are not rigged (which led me to leave the department)

I think there is a thread like that in either the ask the rvrs forum or in the report rare values (public) forum. I'll have a look.

I'm doing Rare Watch up at the moment and updating the FAQS, so i'll see if we can include something about the way Habbox works.

That would be a good idea, but ... even still it would just be words? No real meaning?

Words have meanings? :S sorry I don't get what you mean by that. Are you just saying that there's no evidence when it's just words?

Also, we will usually know when a trade is fake like I remeber when 2 people were trying to fake infobus trades last year I think :P but anyway, the gold nelly isn't that rare anyway and wouldn't be changed because of 1 trade unless there hasn't been a trade for a week or maybe even a month. We usually change values by multiple trades.

Habbox is a guide. Dont like it, dont use it.

Yeah, as above... it's a guide. And I've been offered 98hc worth of my unpures for someone's gold nelly - didn't buy it as quite a few were released in the habboween grabbers etc, so I'd say it's fairly accurate.

Habbox ISNT right, its a guide.. God, you should know that. :eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall :eusa_wall

What he means by 'Habbox IS right', is that we (the 'we' representing the rare values department), made the right decision to decrease the gold nelly.

ive said it a few times this site is no "gospel truth". if you dont wanna sell cus you think the value is too low then dont sell it. the valuers themselves dont necessarily buy and sell at habbox value. take luke he dosent sell for habbox values he buys less than habbox and sells high above habbox.

see i dont sell below habbox either im no mod just a trader. someone tells me its price on here and im like wake up! nothings set in stone basically if you dont want its value ask for more. they say no they can go elsewhere. its your furni not noone elses.

but thats why i dont favour high supers, i have low supers because i cant lose much if demand dropped significantly pink marquee and jupiter smoke machine dont exactly cost much so if they become 1 hc tomorrow it wouldnt bother me, id just keep em i have had em for awhile anyway and i like em.

values change thats a certainty higher or lower itll change no rare is any different. as the trader and owner of that nelly you state what you want for it. they start going on about values then kick em?

EDIT: of course people CAN fake a value, its not rocket science. they get their values from ordinary people like me or you so why not. i think the key word in this topic is TRUST. trusting that your members wont be lying through their teeth when they share values theyve seen. i do agree there though it is pretty simple if you want a rare to rise or fall
