I hope this is the right place to post this. Lately I've noticed that plain cubs with common markings, eyes, and very low stats are overpriced. On the other hand, decent stat cubs with less common eyes, markings and special bases are seriously underpriced. Of course this isn't the case for every single sale, but its common. I had the idea of implementing a suggested pricing system to the trading center when setting up a trade. It would appear on decor trades, cub trades, applicator trades, and anything else. For example: Based on a cub's stats, markings, and base, and the popularity of said things, there would be something under the buyout option that says "Suggested Pricing: 100SB". Of course it wouldn't be mandatory, but I think it would make it easier for people who don't know how to price their cubs or decors to price them based on their popularity. It would also, hopefully, prevent a 600 stat cub with special base, eyes, and harder to find markings being sold for 60sb. Please tell me what you think and why! Thank you. <3 EDIT: Perhaps in actual trades you create there could be an option or button to lower the price without making a completely new trade. Example: you put a cub up for 100 SB and five days later and several bumps later, no hits. There could be an option near "bump this trade" that would allow you to lower the price by 5, 10, 15, 50 SB (or 1, 2, 5, 10 GB for high priced GB items). |

Supporting! I definitely think that this would also help newer players in case they want to sell/buy something and don't get ripped off/sell something for lower value than it should be ^^ ![]() Edited on 10/12/17 @ 19:29:10 by Vega [gimme poops] (#21852) |

Most definitely, Vega! And the good thing is, it would only be a suggestion. Therefore, if you think your cub is worth a bit more or less, you can adjust the price to reflect your thoughts. ![]() |

As much as I like the idea of this, and do support this - there are a few things that need to be taken into account. Certain markings may mean more or less to two different people, depending on of course how they like it. Personally you would never pay a lot for a Cinnabar lets say - but I know a few people willing to spend sb for one. Certain markings become massively popular, and currency fluctuates like you wouldn't believe [Its honestly scary to watch] I just feel like it may be hard to keep up with it all ^ - ^ ![]() |

I definitely see where you're coming from, but this is more to try fixing the extreme underpricing and overpricing issue in the trading center. That's why it would only be a suggestion- perhaps lower the price if you believe the cub isnt worth what the suggestion says. Of course not everyone would listen to the suggestion, but for people who genuinely dont know how to price or want to be as fair as possible, it would be extremely beneficial. ![]() |

I really like this idea but going along with alveonacy i think it really depends on how much you like the cub or item ![]() Edited on 10/12/17 @ 20:01:32 by Cat [poop for poop] (#120816) |

:,) Someone sold one of my boy's ultra-rare (less than 15 in the game) marked cubs for 100sb because it didn't have a special base or a mutation. It had Fire Opal eyes, too. I would love this. ![]() |

Yes!!!! I’m never sure about pricing things and I notice that a lot of things are overpriced or underpriced ![]() |

Exactly, Plague! Its hard to reference other trade posts when they're very obviously under or overpriced! Its too much of a guessing game, honestly. ![]() |

Well, as much as this is a good idea, I would also like to think about the newbies in the game too. Sometimes people sell beautiful cubs that they don't want at all for really cheap in order to get rid of them. Often newbies are the ones buying cheaper cubs. I think I'm going to abstain from supporting or non supporting for now, but would just like to throw my thoughts out there. Also it would probably be a little hard to program something like a price suggestion according to stat, base specialty, and rare markings due to the utter load of possibilities. We should also think about the programmers for the game :) I like the idea, I would just like to see it more planned out. ![]() |

Thanks for your feedback. It would only be optional, though, so if someone still wanted to sell a beautiful cub for cheap, like you said, its still possible. As for programming and difficulty for doing this, it does seem like it would be a hard thing to accomplish. But if it was doable, and in a perfect workd could easily be planned out and implemented, I still believe it would help a lot of people when trying to price items, apps, muties, and other lions. Once again thank you so much for your feedback! ![]() |
