Has any of you ever tried to be ripped off, or actually been ripped off. I did once, I swapped a Mochamaster for a HC sofa, I was new to habbo so, that was where my mistake came from.

Whatever somebody tells you, virtually EVERY habbo is ripped off at somepoint.

I'm no good at "scamming" I always say something wrong, plus it can get you perm banned.

I remember ripping someone off. Well I didn't exactly, they gave me a price so I took it.

Orange tree for 5 creds.

In the early days before I'd ever seen a rare probably, I believed a Pop-Up Egg was a Dino. They were the idiot though because they only took about 15 credits worth of norms off me lol.

I don't care anyway. It's hardly being "ripped off". You can trade whatever you like for whatever you like. Just because Habbox has kindly decided to share its observations on what trends people seem to be setting with their trading, doesn't mean this suddenly becomes the law.

I bought a Habbo Turntable which was worth about 6T, for 6 or 7 HCs once. There was no trickery involved, just an offer like any normal trade. Let's face it, you wouldn't say no would you? Pixels for pixels, nothing lost.

Then how about the thread be called 'Have you ever been ripped off - via habbox prices', so we all don't get mixed up? Everyone else seems to be able to follow the thread perfectly...

From what I remember, they we're like.. 'hidden' options in the catalog that could be opened or something.
