Collection Discussion Thread ♡ NEW Poll!* ♡

[mountain tree]

woohoo!
I'm in the mid seventies now for store pets.
I've been on the hunt for the eat me/drink me set,
because I've decided to sacrifice some non-double listies.
but for now, an offsite trade granted me two recent additions!
click this cutie to view my collection-in-progress!



also, how many of you rely a lot on offsite trading to help your collections along?
I know I've asked about offsite trading (specifically flight rising) a lot, but
I've found that it's so difficult to keep up with both sites!
I feel like several months of diligence on flight rising winds up getting me just one wishlist rare/very rare...
what are other people's experiences?

I rely heavily on off site trades. Without them I would be in major trouble done none wants to trade with me most of the time. Lol

My resolution for this year is pretty simple ;;
I'd like to get my WL pages down to 30 - it's at 45 right now, so that doesn't seem too difficult! I'd like to start narrowing them down so I can have a reasonable collection to actually focus on.

I also rely pretty heavily on off-site trading. It's a lot easier to collect WL pets that way and it's easy to grind the coli or fairgrounds with something on in the background.

I just decided that my goal for this year will it to be to collect all pets down to 2012. I'm only missing some rares from 2015/16. The biggest part is 2012. ^^

Has anyone else ever traded off part of a collection cause they thought they werent going to be getting the hardest part of the collection anytime soon, then they get the harder one and now regret + cant seem to get back the first half? legit me with my Sleipnir collection xD I had a purple sleipnir a few months ago, but traded it off thinking I probably wouldn't be anywhere near a brown sleipnir, but just recently I got the brown sleipnir, and now am so far off the purple sleipnir :') xD and forever mad I traded it off rotflol.

Yup. I traded a store punk set for one of the rarest Eld pets and now I've been spending all of last year trying to get them back. -_-

I'll also go through my collection and come across a pet I know I had but now it's not there anymore. Maybe this was also the case?

[Dizzy socks]

I'm still kind of trying for all the horses. I thought I'd managed the hardest list ones, having the UR Foal, UR Purple, Store ones, and UR Mint, but the RBM is killing me. I just can't seem to trade up my Sockdog, and trying to climb to the mainlist again doesn't feel like a nice thought >.<.

The RBM was hard for me too. I tried to trade up to it but the problem was that many pets around it on the rares list have shabby demand. :c I ended up just buying a purple toxic with offsite currency and trading it for a RBM+something to even it out.

I don't really have offsite either, apart from Howrse, but I'll keep trying, and I'm sure I'll get there eventually aha c;
