Rares VS Collectables

What type do you prefer, do you miss Rares and hate Collectables or is it the other way around, discuss here!

Personally I think Collectables are awful and ugly, and useless. They don't look good in casinos and trade rooms for that matter, and I can't see a future for them really, unless its due to rareity.

Interesting to see the results. :)

Rares (a classic example and a modern example)

Sadly not, I thought they'd at least bring it back for Habboween/Christmas/New Year/Valentines Day/Easter but apparently not. :(

People whom complained about recolours, well look at what we have now; http://www.hhgs.net/radiodjpanel/upl...ermanGnome.gif

Rares, For one many times we didn't know what was coming next, and it made different hotels unique. Would be nice to have them as well as rares.

I do find it funny that people moaned so much about recolours now we don't have them they moan about collectables, they can't win!

I liked re-colours! :(

I liked re-colors as well :P

maybe the set of collectables will be better than the around the world ones? xD

rares are da best even recolours

collectables are ugly

Looks like I'm in the minority here.. I prefer the collectables to the rares.

The rares are nice, but they're over-rated in my opinion. People would collect loads of them simply to keep and trade later, or to shove in countless numbers of casinos. I do however think it's a bone-head idea for the collectables to be out for a whole month. The rares were nice because they were only out for a week or so. Plus that is the reason people believe they are "rare" and feel they need to show them off in casinos... but hey that's me.

The collectables are something different, and travelling the world and visiting new interesting places, learning about other cultures is something I've always been interested in. The around the world collection is pretty cool in my opinion. They are ugly pieces of furniture which don't exactly fit anywhere, granted, but they are still a nice collection of furniture to have.

Pretty interesting reading other peoples views... :)

I simply liked the surprise or Rares in the catalouge like when you would look in the catalouge and see the green ICM there for 10 mins or the green pillow there for 5 mins or w.e it was soo much more exciting and sometimes you could make profit out of it but now they have these collectables which you no whats gonna be released before it is and it's there for a month and they are all worth less then 1CS and honestly look really ugly in a room.

I suppose habbo did it to try get more people buying credits from them. Before when a rare came out for a week you could sometimes buy loads of them using credits you bought and then sell the off again when they left the catalouge for more credits then you paid which meant you didn't have to buy creds of Habbo as you've already made loads from trading, this way you hardly get any return on the collectables (a loss really) and thus you have to buy creds from Habbo, thats why i think all the old rares are doing so well lately as thats what people are buying now.

The more collectables that are released the higher it will push up the prices of other Rares.

Could you immagine though if the throne got released as a collectable, it'd be on sale for a month and would be worth like 0.7 in the end lol

Sorry cant imagine it :(

So I haven't missed much then?? At least a lot of people will now know that their rare is hardly likely to get re-released? Which has always looked like a threat in habbo? lol.

Hows the RVD going Danube?? And Jake why aren't you AGM anymore :O Some things have changed I guess? lol.

Ash, you noob. Get with the times, I resigned a few weeks ago maybe even a month ago by now!

Poor git. How many people you failed to scam? :D

Been looking at rares, and nothing of mine has gone up in value to be honest... lol.

Well the petals have gone up to 3CS, but thats what I paid for them when they were 2.5CS. :'( Just wait another 10 years and hope the petals have gone up a lot :D Cya, I'm off to go on Xbox, the murderer of Habbo to me :D

The annoying thing is that "collectables" are really just "rares" under a different name. I've alway thought of rares as items that you can no longer buy from the catalogue. So once a collectable is out of the catalogue it becomes a rare.

Saying that, isn't a collectable only collectable because it's rare?

Items of furni should be valued on how common they are, in my opinion. And the fact that the Habbo creators have access to the amount of each piece of furni in the hotel, they should publish those stats and have rares rated by where they rank.

The Ecotron allows the deletion of any object, and so seeing as rares can be removed, and abandoned in rooms of no longer active accounts mean that rare values should always be increasing.
