Eh... Probably not for as much anymore, since bamboo is more common in the community now. A lot of people also have the T&T Emporium by now and you can buy bamboo shoots there.
I actually was giving them away for free last time I did a giveaway in my town and nobody wanted them.
^ What he said. The trouble with bamboo is, it grows. I got two shoots from a giveaway and now it's taking over my town. Soon enough people will be paying other people to take bamboo shoots away, I think
I have 9 bamboo trees around my zen garden in my town. I dig up the 9 shoots that appear every 3 days and sell them to Re-tail, so they never get out of control. I don't think anybody would pay big bucks for bamboo unless they are wanting their entire town to be covered in bamboo trees.
Probably too popular to get a lot for now. I did some tt'ing and have sooo much bamboo, I can get 100k every time I get seedlings. And that's only selling to re-tail!
