Absurd entry fees for turnips?

[BunnyElsa]

Anyone else appalled at the high entry fees to sell your turnips at theirs (e.g. 500-600 bells)? Last week, I was able to go to a couple islands over the 500 bell mark and simply paid 99K or 1 NMT. Now, I'm seeing 500-800K requirements or 5+ NMT? I'm in a massive Discord server and the prices have just randomly gone up. Or am I just broke? Lol.

I usually tip 10% of gross sales. If my Nook's ever hits a large spike, that's where I'd set my minimum expectation. Of course, dishonest folks will sell and leave nothing. It's their karma.

Big bruh moment for me is when people charge 10 NMT for an entry fee like, bye.

Yeah, 100K is usually my base 10% which I think is fair! If I ever got a decently high price (above 500) I’d request the same. Just tons of stupid prices out there To make sure people don’t sell and leave, I’ve been to a couple islands where they’ve made cages Pretty clever actually lol

For sure it's a hedge. Only serious folks apply. The thing with NMTs is that they can be donated before the person sells turnips. If no tickets dropped, then the host can end the session immediately.

But.. you would be doing in half your profits just to get in.

I could never charge for anything.
I have a strong moral conscience reguarding this.

 

[lunapalooza]

But 99k is basically nada when you're making 2 million bells per trip

 

[Jared:3]

I know I started to notice this too, sorry but I'm not paying big entry fees like that just so I can sell turnips I mean a tip like 99k or 1 NMT is fine but anything above that is a bit absurd depending on the price

 

[tybalt_cake]

i guess ppl have to get NMT or Bells in every possible way lol.


i personally would not do that.

I'm sorry but... why do people charge to let someone on their island to sell...? That's shady, shady, shady. Good thing I have family members and friends enjoying Animal Crossing along with me and we keep each other up to date about Turnip prices.

and this is why i've been gradually feeling more disgusted with AC's community ever day...

people already get miles from hosting other players, why can't they act like a community, as that is the whole point of AC?

People ask for tips because it’s just a common courtesy
Of course overpricing is unfair
But asking for an entry fee is nothing new lol we been in this business for a while

Tipping is way different from an actual 100k+ entry fee.

 

[Corrie]

Yeah, I just avoid people like that. Sucks it's the majority of the community. Trust me though, it's because the game is new and everyone is trying to get their island perfect. I bet you it'll be different in a year from now.

 

[trashpedia]

Tbh this is why I really don’t like visiting other strangers island and only visit my friends. Sometimes I’ll let other people into my island for free (no tips required) if they privately DM me and stuff but it’s usually prices around $150 to maybe $250.

 

[crystalmilktea]

Even if tipping is not necessary, I think it'd be really nice for it to be the norm as the host is taking a lot of time and effort to open for other people. 5+NMT is a little much though if NMT are still 250k each, that's more than the price of 1 full trip of turnips LOL

 

[FaerieRose]

The amount of greed in this community was absolutely shocking to me when I joined. It almost makes me want to go back to playing solo. I've found some good people, though.

 

[TrippyKitten]

I was seeing people with like 300-400 sell prices asking for those types of entry fees...like bruh. xD Gold nuggets and star fragments seem to be a growing request too.

 

[FaerieRose]

And most of these are people sitting on piles of bells already from TTing. They don't need more stuff.

 

[Jared:3]

Thats my point, I don't understand paying like 3 or 4 NMT for a turnip price of 500 bells, that's insane because the NMT are probably worth more than the profit your making off of selling the bells
