Zoonie 0 Posted October 4, 2009 I was just thinking about the 'old days' when I used to wonder whether to splurge 50 coins and risk the gamble of a RMB Does anyone buy them any more? Have the contents ever been updated? If not, what's the point of them?For the record, on the whole the boxes seem to hate me, and I usually get my new items through trading or gifts. I have a friend in the States who is convinced that if she opens boxes at a certain time (when I'm usually asleep) the contents turn out lucky for her! :biggrin: : but they seem to know it's me coming and all the good stuff hides!What's everyone else thinking?

Lucky Strike 0 Posted October 6, 2009 Good question... I think they haven't been updated in aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages... (juuuuuuuust like the eco boxes.......) Well.. I may buy 1-2 if i'm bored and have a few spare coins (and bored of visiting :blush2: ).. but i always sell back.. you can never have a great loss with them.. the most "sure" boxes.. personally i HATE bmb.. YOU CAN N-E-V-E-R find the item you like because there's like a gazilion of them and they don't pay back nothing.. even in gmb if you buy some at some point you'll find something that's worth it! even if you are unlucky as hell!

smorkle 0 Posted October 6, 2009 lol! i love and hate the boxes. you guys have to use the "trick" when opening the boxes. it is so time consuming though. i usually only play with the gmbs and sometimes the new eggs but the rmb and bmb - no way i usually just buy the items when it's on sale somewhere here too. if you don't know the "trick" go here --> http://www.petsociety.forumotion.com/tipsandtricks-h21.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smorkle 0 Posted October 6, 2009 as for the time, zoonie, i agree with your friend. i think the boxes are more generous at certain times. for me it's at 10:59PM. LOL yes, i said 10:59 PM! ha hah a!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kasijab 0 Posted October 6, 2009 I've been using the 'trick' for a while but as you said it is so time consuming. I've actually been quite lucky this week with blue boxes which is very unusual ...but on the whole I only do gold and then usually more when the new items are just released Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zoonie 0 Posted October 7, 2009 See, I told you - the lucky time is when I need to be asleep *pouts* not fair! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smorkle 0 Posted October 7, 2009 LOL, you're so funny! i don't know what it is about that time, but if i log on on thursday at that time, i usually get the new item... if i'm awake from work this thursday and i get the new item, it's yours!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zoonie 0 Posted October 10, 2009 LOL how fab. I missed you as last night my time (I am GMT +1 until Sunday 25th October, when I become GMT again) I have a problem with an awful broadband connection, it struggles to reach just 1Mbps and the connection often drops, so I like people to know if they don't hear back from me, that's very likely why. Will go and log in to PS shortly and see how many pairs of jeans are in the closet today (always supposed it's not wallpapers!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

myladyyawo 0 Posted November 8, 2009 I used to buy the rmb all the time when I started lol! Since I've found forums lol and now know that there really isn't anything good in them I don't buy them anymore I'm not usually a superstitious person but I feel that it's not the time, but where you place it, like almost next to the arrow on the right or left hand side of the screen or sometimes the middle of bigger objects like a shelf or a chest or a bed can be really lucky..... but I think my pet just might have mystery box obsessive compulsive disorder!
