New GMB Items & Other News!

Here they are guys, the new items released on Friday, hope you like them, I know that I already really want the JellyFish Hat! (Thanks to Min_Hay for this update!)

Nerdy Glasses Found in
Jelly Fish Baby Found in
Blue Origami Hat Found in

Sadly however, Jukes and Lips are being removed from the shops, is this is another sign that playfish don't want trading to continue? So far we have had the re-release of Rare Items, Un-Tradeable Items (The new mystery egg items), Removal Of Jukes & Lips to a cheaper version, Removal of Rep from the Playfish forums...Even though Playfish deny they are trying to stop trading I think all the signs are there.

Letter from the Mayor - Supplier issues
March 20, 2009 by mark bendon

Hello all!

Now, there’s bad news and good news. The bad news is that jukeboxes and luscious lips loungers will soon be taken off the shelves. Unfortunately in these difficult times our supplier, Pet Party Products Inc. has gone out of business, and after we’ve sold the the last shipment of jukeboxes and loungers, they will be discontinued.

The good news is that we’ve been able to locate another supplier, Pampered Pets Inc., who not only stock a larger range of jukeboxes and loungers — they’re also cheaper!

Of course, if you’ve always wanted a jukebox or luscious lips lounger then now would be the time to buy — they won’t be around much longer!

Good day to you all!

The Mayor

Hmm...so does this mean that soon the "old" jukes/lips will actually be considered RARE items? Wonder what that's gonna do to the whole "trading for rares"...

It'll be like "I'll trade you an OLD juke for 5 new jukes" or something like that...it'll be interesting to see...guess I'll be hanging on to some of my old jukes (well the 2 I have anyways...lol)

Yes it will be interesting to see, I dare say jukes and lips will become rares.

It will take a while for the market to recover again and for us all to figure out how many "new" jukes will be considered a fair trade for "old" jukes/lips and rares.

i think with the jukes / lips becoming rare next week, PF strategy is to get players to use pay-pal to get the new jukes for trade ???

they're too profit-oriented. they won't survive for 10 years the way neopets did.

yep getting a bit too greedy I think

on the other hand they have changed the newbie amounts. instead of 500 coins for newbie pets they get 2500 now which i think is a lot more helpful than 500.

Would have helped me out a lot when I was a newbie

Well... as most of you see PF is trying to get some real coins from your pocket but what I feel is actually the opposite way.

1) They ever want to handle/supervise the trading 'market' and it seems they are not eager to do so. It's obvious that if they are going to control the trading, it cost them more. And as the rep. system... the trader had been too depend on it and even made it as a safe index but it never should be. Is good for the on going trade market to remove it due to people made fake rep by handling 1/2 giveaway, as well as the most serious problem: some huge "little" group... mostly were teens they made fake trade and rep each other and prepare some gang scam right after the cheating trick was widely be reported and at the same time huge amount of newbies rushed into the forum cause PF highlightly introduced it to the public when login to the game (and as i know one of the group they have over 100 members!!!!!)

And if PF wants players to spend real money then they should encourage players to trade rares in the forum (but al of us can see they have no intend to do so) OR to issue "gold items" that you can buy with real money (like fluff friends) but they didn't. They even reduce the price of the new jukes/lips instead~

So it is no way to prevent trades between players and at the same time want to gain your $$.

Sorry for my lousy english but I hope you can (fairly) understand what I want to say~
