Re: "The" Rares List Guide - UR peach discussion, come help!

To be honest I think the dip in the peach is due to the dwarf hamster Halloween costume released this year. It copies the look of the peach and was easy to get.

Has anything similar happened before? I'm too new to know. But I know that personally I care a lot less about the peach because of that costume.

There's a banana costume for dogs and a black cat costume for ponies right? I think the costumes are mainly just to imitate high-value pets, similar to how on Halloween people can dress up as someone famous(political leader/singer/someone they look up to), a character in a book/game/cartoon/tv show or something simple and well known, like a ghost, devil, skeleton or zombie.

I don't think the costumes wouldve removed any actual value from the pets, granted when I saw there were peach costumes, I wanted to collect them (with no luck as most people either aren't willing to trade them or are also looking to collect them ;U; )

That and while sitting in the auction threads in 2017, I've only really noticed ur peaches go for roughly 2 sorbs, something that was most probably sparked through false advice or just eventually fell to such when people got tired of waiting for a non's worth.

Mainly saw the peach go for nons closer to its release, however there's still a couple trades here and there that prove the peach could go for nons in 2017 (and possibly now 2018) although there's also trades that prove it can just as easily go for 2 sorbets

Which is a main reason why the peach is taking awhile to get its placement. I don't personally believe it has anything to do with the costumes

While the costume is cute I doubt it had anything to do with the Peachs popularity, I'd say any drop in popularity is simply due to it being fruit combined with the influence of the FTT, the same thing has happened with all the UR foods after they've been out for awhile.

There's always going to be resistance to change (see real life and history). Someone's always gonna get shortchanged and someone's always going to struggle. But we think this is a pill that needs to be swallowed. After 5+ years the problem hasn't fixed itself and has only gotten worse, so it's time to do something

that's because the sunback isn't truly worth "5 nons" it's worth two. the "5 nons" thing came from people saying it was worth that out of demand, but it's truly not. anything above 2 nons is an overpay (:


Ive personally never seen an offer over 4 and thats always either a moonswirl or a zebra(ur bw ur fruit etc) plus a little add. Never have i seen one go for 4 or 5 full nons (or other lower quantity of that value), always included is a lesser in demans higher up pet.


A rarity only list will help immensly by showing what the pets should actually go for. Demand will still be apllied by people, just hopefully not over applied like it is now.

    It actually can go for 5 nons. It's not common, but possible. I got this suggestion today. I've also received the offer of a sunjewel twice in the last month maybe? I declined out of dis-interest in owning a pet so high up, making it impossible to trade down again~
    The sunback demand is absolutely ridiculous right now. It did drop and I wasn't being offered over three nons for mine however I'm back at getting crazy offers.

    I'm hoping the rarity list rids of more problems then it will cause at first. I know obviously the first six months or so might be like,
    a trading chaos but hopefully it simmers down and people settle in quickly.
i am consistently inactive, i come and go as i please for monthly adopts and events. i rarely respond to trades unless im looking for something.

There is no demand list no. This list already includes most demand

@panda, as my post says, ive never seen someone offer 5 nons. Not the worth of 5 nons, but 5 nons specifcally. Like i said, the sunback can go for a lower in demand higher pet like a moonswirl or sunjewel or ur cat zebra bw etc etc you name it. Ive personally never seen it go for 4 or 5 nons as in literally the non pets. Or even lower pets that add up to 4 or 5 nons, offers that get that value always have one of those 'harder' to trade pets and are almost never in quantity. Thats what i meant c:

Since the people working on the rarity list are doing it by counting how many of each pet were actually adopted I would think the same thing would be done with list store pets to accurately determine where they fit on the list. As store pets are not re-released they would eventually move up the list as the ratio of players:store pet becomes greater.

There was talk awhile ago about putting the store pets in their own box though rather than trying to fit them in with the normal pets, not sure if that is still the plan.

As far as re-releasing store pets Tess has said many times that it won't happen. Tess sees the store pets are a reward for people financially supporting CS and not as part of a normal complete collection. Also paying 500C$ for a random store pet, which most likely will be one from more recent years, would be ridiculous, the only store pets currently actually worth that much C$ are the skelebun (which rarity wise is worth much more) & orange cerb. Even if you valued all the old store pets at their demand price it's still only about 12 store pets at that value or higher out of almost 200 possibilities, really not good odds of getting your 500C$ worth.
