Actually....its because GW2 is coming and we all know you cant take anything with you, so you might as well sell whatever you can in game and then sell the plat on ebay. :P

Because all the super rare minis are hot but Island Guardian's, that suks.

Most of the so called bidders are fake. It's quite surprising how so many people have stacks of ecto all of a sudden.

It's well known half the people that bid in high end just do it to boost their e-peen.

Theres supposedly new dupe out but Its pretty hard to get the timing right and Anets probably also logging the dupers.

You got to travel to watchtower coast in tyria with a friend.

The duper needs to lure a mergoyle to the water, stand as deep into the the water as possible. Cast "Vipers defence" then as the mergoyle fires at you drop the item, you get disconnected with an error message whilst your teammate picks up the item. Log back in and its still in your inventory. Didn't always work though depending on how it teleports you.

Same happened with pandas a few months ago and a few weeks ago the uber-pet mini polar bear was seen being sold by about 10 diff ppl (yet there was supposedly only 2-3) you would think they changing hands and being resold but all the prices were very similar

new dupe a-net havent found yet possibly?

Remember, a lot of the times rare pet owners use workers to help sell the pets for a fee. So 10 people selling polar was just 1 owner + 9 workers spamming.

And as far as duping... the last new duping method was patched just 2 or 3 weeks ago. Remember the "fixed exploit" patch with no explaination? But the perm banned people involved...who are now of course back... said it just involved items that could be consumed or used up (ie. dyes, keys, etc...) Pets couldnt be duped as far as I heard, but I could be wrong.

I heard from a friend who knows a guy whose cousin works at Anet. FYI in a few weeks they are adding another scavenger hunt for the Island Guardian just like the black moa chick. Materials required for a single Island Guardian are: 25 Mursaat Tokens, 25 Patches of Simian Fure, 25 Water Djinn Essences, 250 Jade Wind Orbs, and 80 Lunar Fortunes.

btw, I'm selling lunar fortunes for 10k each and jade wind orbs 5k each. pm me ingame.

Haha, you wish. I know Anet is planning to give away the priorly deleted duped armbraces Sunday at midnight in Kaineng City, to everyone in the even numbered polish districts. Start selling your armbraces ASAP, they gonna be worth nothing soon. Nice try though.

Frighteningly enough, alot. I've noticed that the general populace of both games and the real world will swallow just about anything in the name of get rich quick or conspiracy theories....sad really.

I have to agree with that.

Nonetheless, if they plan to drop, I'll be curious to know what will happen with the 3rd year birthday minis.

I sure hope they'll be available in some other way because not everyone still has them from when Factions came out.

KamikazeChicken · Jun 04, 2008, 09:06 PM // 21:06

The Island Guardian was the only mini I wanted, so I hope more end up being added so the price drops like a rock. It's not like the majority of people who actually have the Island Guardians even like them...

You also need to have /A as your secondary profession, with a Brute Sword equipped in slot 2.

Gaile told me personally.

QFT!

As for the Islang Guardians, seems a lot of those are just being resold all the time.
Not to mention now there are so many on sale, and the price is dropping, it seems the people who have one think they should sell now before the price drops further. Kinda a downward spiral I'd say..
