Pixels are worth more than the real thing!!
As some of you may or may not be aware of, lately, there's been many sales of "expensive" Gaia items on eBay. Today, as I checked on the sales, I made a very interesting observation.

The auction for a user-made REAL (real as in you can touch and wear) pair of Angelic mini wings had 8 bids with a current high bid of $16 with 17 hours left.

The auction for pixels of a pair of Nitemare mini wings had 16 bids with a current high bid of $261.46 with over 2 days left.

I'll leave it at that. xd

I'll never understand pixel whores. I mean especially with all the avatar generators out there anyway. I mean I appreciate the fun of dressing up a pixel avatar as much as the next person, and it's always fun to see something worth looking at next to your posts and those of others, but come on. gonk What a world. *shakes his head*

Sometimes, I wonder if oldbies take certain pixel items for granted, since we really didn't have to work very much for what we have. But then I'd ask myself if I could ever quest for or spend real money on a grizzly hat or a corsage, and the answer would always be the same: HELL NO!

Same here... but then I'm cheap. mrgreen Basically, if I don't like an item I don't care what it's worth in gold, I don't go after it, but no matter how much I liked an item, unless there was a really good reason for it, I wouldn't spend REAL money on it. eek But then I'm poor, and not on Gaia all that much compared to a lot of people, so I guess to each their own. *shrug*
