Buying in-game bells with actual money?

[Yui Z]

I would never buy bells for real money -.-' that's just stupid since they're so easy to get

Everyone says they're so easy to get...but until selling a villager recently I've never owned more than 600k at a time. i don't understand the secrets xD

I think that selling bells for real life cash is an absolute disgrace.. I don't care whether it's stupid or not.. Nintendo's creation means that people can make money from it..

People using the "selling games for cash" argument doesn't stack up, because you, or someone, would have had to pay for the game first to sell it back

It's disgraceful, and morally wrong more than anything.. Real life cash and pixel cash bags are not anywhere near the same, and people should not be allowed to make real life cash from it.. And just because people are doing it on eBay, does NOT make it right..

Ebay removes them because of the licensing issue.

Do you oppose buying or selling more? I don't care about people selling: they earned those bells and the time spent doesn't equate even minimum wage (based on that person's prices). Buying seems lazy, in respect, but outside of villagers trading, it seems difficult to make a huge amount of money if you don't duplicate or time travel for turnips or something, which I don't think is better.

That being said, I highly doubt most people with over 20 million bells got it all without using some sort of cheating method.

Personal opinion, so don't get too worked up.

I have about 40 million, just from countless trips to the island, but that in itself is so draining, so I like this new method of selling villagers.

If you want money just go to the island to farm beetles. A full load takes 30-40min to get if you wait till after 8pm for all the locust to go away and have all your non-palm trees and bushes removed to minimize non-beetle insects. A full load will net you roughly 350k bells depending on the mix of beetles you get. Thats about 1m bells for about 2 or so hours of farming. No real life money required.

Bells are pretty easy to earn, buying bells with real money is like DLC but worse.

honestly if you want to spend real life money for bells (???) the best thing to do is just buy a second copy of new leaf lol. farm like crazy. hoard popular event items and sell them online. TT until your turnip prices are insane and have people come over and they might tip you. TT and breed hybrids to sell. there are honestly so many ways...

i can't fathom paying like $5 for a million bells or whatever the rate is, that seems like such a waste.
