What the Heck happened here! xD

Some items increase in value when they become unavailable and some of those items are thrown away and others is stuck with abandoned accounts, so for rare items time=less items of that sort=possible higher price
and it can be the other way around too

Well there was major inflation a while ago where everything almost doubled in price, but then alot of things went back down too. Quite a few of them stayed up there though xD

Ah, well it depends on the items I guess. When I got cloud, I think it was about 10-20k. And now it's about...20x that price? I'm so glad I kept it now xD
But those two examples are probably also because of the high demand for them. Like Coco and Kiki went up to about double their price, but Coco's come back down.

Well the most prominent example I have right now is this:

I had obtained the Ace Meow Item for almost 500g each when it came out and I have close to 50. Now the average price for each one is now 20k approx. Which tallies out to 1m, minus the buy cost that was 25k for all. I essentially have 975K profit here biggrin

But then Again, it's all up to the fact that people will buy them or not.

Oh people will buy them. Just don't put 20 up at a time xD It'll sell eventually, as long as you're the first person on the list.

I will sell them (Post the Listing) in Set's of 5, at least 1 set per every 2 days. Hopefully I shall sell them all by 2 weeks or so.

Selling hoardes is usually no problem. As long as you're willing to settle on a price, you'll make tons of profit. The real question is what price to settle on. If you list too high, no one will buy. If you list too low, you'll make cash too slow. I personally hoarded around 40-60 barnabas crusades at 50K each. I'm hoping to sell them for a significant profit over time.
