    I'm glad your not.

    However, I am not saying you fix rare values to your own advantage, I foolishly brought up the fact that it had appeared that that had once occured and it has caused us to deviate somewhat.

    I am just trying to get you to appreciate:
    1. The huge influence Habbox has. Almost a one-way process, almost.
    2. Bear in mind scarcity a bit more, Samovars are definetly undervalued.

    1) I agree to an extent, people do follow Habbox like a bible but we cannot do anything more to stop this, when I can tell people I do.

    2) Russian Samovars are probably undervalued in the great scheme of things, but we can only value on what people are paying.

    It's not about the amount things are.

    It's about what people are paying for. I don't think you understand how the market works. Infact I know you don't.

    Please do not try to stipulate my level of ignorance. Don't even try to make out I cannot understand the concept of a market; I've done A Level Economics and I also study Economics at University.

    I think Undertaker may be getting my point. My point is that I think your wrong to believe the market influences prices reported on Habbox - except on new releases. I do believe that whatever Habbox labels a rare at whether 2 HC higher than the trading value or not at that current time it will cause the value to rise or fall.

    Yes, your the reporters and you do report I am sure. However, I am sure if you inflated the price of a Holoboy to 5 HCs that is how much they would trade for.

    On the last part; yes those who follow Habbox as a bible may do a few trades at that if we did put the Holopod at an inflated price of which it was not traded for - but we won't, and we never will. Habbox does not have complete control as I have been saying, otherwise rares would never ever move from their present values, they would stay exactly the same.
