lea75 0 Posted November 18, 2009 How many of you are still buying GMB's now the glich has been removed?? Are you using the new GMB glich? The one where you work off line? I use it...its a little more time consuming than the old glich, but once you get used to it is really easy Not that I have time to do it much at the moment, do nt even get my visiting done very often Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smorkle 0 Posted November 19, 2009 YES! thank goodness someone found a way around the glitch! seriously i thought i was going to have to quit. it does take a little bit longer but like you guys mentioned, once you get the hang of it, it's no biggy. i did notice a lot more junk back in there again. is that just me?

lea75 0 Posted November 19, 2009 I think there is a lot more junk in there now...the ratio of 999's to rubbish is a lot lower now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay!! I'll go try it out now...since I already have a few boxes in my inventory...I'll try clearing it out and doing the box trick and let you know...Edit: Success!! It really is that you can't already have the boxes in your inventory to be able to complete the trick...:p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZIM402 0 Posted December 4, 2009 I just tried the trick 15 times with a small RMB. *I was looking for a space rug.* No space rug all 15 times and 3 times I got doubles. On average, how many tires until you get what you're looking for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lea75 0 Posted December 4, 2009 Dont forget if there is an item you cannot get out of the boxes you can check to see if there is one in Rosies swap shop that you can swap with CLICK HERE FOR ROSIES SWAP SHOP Or if it is a 999 item than you can ask for it in the 999 wish list CLICK HERE FOR WISH LIST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On average, how many tires until you get what you're looking for? make sure that the space rug is really in the RMB first. you can check on kogaweb via our home page. click on our home page up above, then scroll down to the bottom right corner where you will see the word "search". you can search through there to see if that item exists in the RMB. that way you won't be wasting your time. but like lea said, you can always go to the swap shop or put it on the wish list too! they are both great great!!!!

ZIM402 0 Posted December 5, 2009 Thank you both for your help. I knew the space rug was in a RMB, but I like the idea of a list of things in the MBs. I will definitely check that out thank you. : ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure to check the list of 999s too and stuff removed from boxes - we need to be up to speed and check what they're likely to remove. Personally I didn't like that dodecahedron lantern and used some for payments last week, only to find they're gone now, so might rise in value (or then again, maybe no one likes them anyway ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smorkle 0 Posted December 20, 2009 ok it still works but only if you have zero boxes in your chest and you have to be offiline before purchasing your box. click "offline" first then purchase your box of choice then open, if you don't like it then click refresh while it's refreshing click "online" again. don't click "online" until it starts refreshing or else you'll be stuck with the bad item. good luck!!!!! when i just tried it, it gave me 3 stickers in a row!! whoop whoop!!!
