Haggling?!

Sun Sep 26, 2004 1:19 am

I've just been trying to restock at the main collectable cards store but for some reason I can't haggle. The price the store keeper gives me is always the same and so is the phrase that they say. -.0

Is this happening for anyone else or is it a me specific glitch? xP

That happened to me in the Clothing Store. It's really annoying. >_<

It's happening to me too, no matter what I try the price never changes, the only way to get the item is to bid exact. :roll:

Apparently the shopkeepers currently need anger management and won't haggle in price, you have to offer how much it acually costs. :x Good thing I don't haggle, I'm too slow: dial up.

I think this must be Neo's way to make restocking harder. If you do not type fast enough, you don't get it. But the problem seems to be intermittent though; sometimes the shopkeepers allow you to haggle, sometimes they don't.

*twitch twitch* Good cards in the shop and I can't haggle down the price. ;.;

Chaud: I haggle and I'm dial up. 0.o; That's why I don't restock at shops like the toy shop etc. though. -.-;;

Qanda: I hope that you're not being serious. :cry:

IMO, if you have to haggle down the price to make a profit, then its not worth restocking that item anyway. But then if you are dial-up, every bit counts I guess.

Plus, this problem has been around for at least one week, if it were a bug Neo would have solved it already, right? Thus I think it is intentional.

I make quite a bit by haggling down the price but I haven't restocked in a while because of school. Eh.. darn. I wanted to start collecting cards and it's much cheaper from the main shops. =/

Priceless!

I'm actually having the same problem as well, I noticed it in the school shop "where the prices are so messed up, by the time you type it, it's GONE!"

:D

I restock in the same shops every day, and over the last week, the haggling problem was there some days, some days not. Yesterday, for example, I had no problem offering low.
