decchild Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I've been attempting to trade my Baby Acara Morphing Potion on the trading post for a while now, but I just can't seem to trade it for a full secret lab map set (I have an inbox full of rejected offers). The thing is that the potion is worth about 1.1-1.2M, and a full lab set is about 1M, so the person who trades me the map is actually profiting, hence my confusion over why no one wants it? Any advice from you awesome Neopet players out there? Or anyone knows who would be down to trade with me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auntziggy Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 the lab map is an est items whilst the potion is a hts item. Therefore, the people trading the lab map know they can get pure so it is easier for them to get pure tan get an item worth more but which requires a lot more time and effort trying to sell it.

Rune Valentine Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I think the problem you're having is actually the answer to your question: No one wants the Baby Acara MP. It's a particularly hard sell because 1) Acaras aren't that popular a species 2) Baby PBs only cost roughly 585k and 3) Baby isn't a particularly desirable colour. Despite what "Estimated price" you have for an item, something like a morphing potion is only worth that much if someone is willing to buy it :) Most people who sell full lab map sets are already re-sellers who are looking for pure NP and a profit, a morphing potion just isn't a guaranteed profit for them when they know someone else out there will pay in pure NP. So my advice is try and sell the MP first and get NP to buy the lab map set. As someone who has been on the receiving end of trades offering morphing potions, I normally never accept them because they're so hard to sell. If you go on the Trading/Auctions NeoBoards, someone might be willing to take the MP off your hands, albeit for a significantly lower price that what you'd want for it. nightfall8705, Mouseykins, Lydia Trebond and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ11 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I do quite a bit of trading and I now just take pure because too many times I have got stuck with items that I can not sell despite them being valued at a certain price no one wants to actually pay that price. If it were me I would advertise it for pure and beat anyone else on the TP that way it will go, but do give it a set time before you start to reduce the Trade price. Once you have the np then buy the thing you want. Far less trouble Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
