 So, I'm sure by now people have heard that they are releasing copies of items from banned accounts. They are not taking it out from the account, it is a copy! What they are doing is putting them on the marketplace under Flynn's store as bids with the starting bid being 0g. I was wondering what you girls think about this. Personally, I like it. It's just a copy, so if the person gets their account back, they would still have the item. It also puts out items that were just sitting there in accounts not being used. I looked around the GCD, and a few people are complaining that it's junk. If you look at Flynn's shop, there are a few good items, like a February 2004 letter that is over 900k right now and a March 2004 letter that is 2mil. There are some weird ones (Blue Octopus for 150g?) but it's still a good idea. For those who want to look at the items: [NPC] Flynn's storePost style by PhallenPixie

I like the idea, there are so many older items rotting on these banned accounts. So making dupes of them to sell to active members is a great idea.
I especially like how they are being sold on the marketplace with bid only. Much better than bidblast! I also like the random sponsor items and event items thrown in there too. XD
It's a good gold sink. n_n

Yup~ It's a gold sink that's worth it! Bid blast was a real big gold sink in that you had to pay just to be able to place a bid.

At first they did.. but after the first couple of weeks? Nope.
Having no real set end date kind of made it suck for everyone involved.
At least with them being on the marketplace you know how much time you have left until you HAVE to make a move on the item. surprised

Intoxikace A lot of people didn't even bother with bidblast though.

Yeah, I can see that. I thought it was a good idea until I found out you had to pay to be able to bid on the item. Then it became fun to watch people buy fighting for the stuff. Few times the people overpaid a lot.

Personally I don't see an issue with tham doing this. They are copies, and it be really wasteful to just do nothing. Plus we get Flynn back, a win win ask me. 4laugh Yay! Flynn

It's a good thing! It'll definitely help with inflation.
You see, the less items there are of something, the higher the price.
Since most items like 2004 items for example are running out and it
would be unfair to sell a lot again, so I think bidding for them and
keeping them in the 'cycle' is a great idea!

Unless I see Valhalla's Obsidian Armor pop up in there and the bid isn't too extreme, there won't be much I'll try to get in there. It's awesome that they've chosen this route rather than ShitBlast. I never liked BidBlast even when it first started.

I like the concept, but the currently available items.... meh.
Maybe it's because I haven't been here that long?
As for Bid Blast: SUCKAGE. Why should I pay to bid? It's less expensive to take my chances on the Marketplace.

I like this idea. I'll still never be able to afford most of it, but that's ok. It's nice to see Flynn again. What ever happened to her anyway?

I was on my haitus when it happened. Evidently she became a space pirate or something like that in Neon Core

Can't believe I didn't know about it until now...! Thank you Rubai Sora!
I think it's a great idea! There are so many older items that you can't buy anymore because they are a crazy high price or literally no one will set it.
I totally took a trip down memory lane looking at all the items I owned and loved when I was still a noob<3
(Ignore current-half-naked-avatar, it is currently under construction. BTW selling two Sainte Ciel items in store.)
