Buying 🕹️Invader & Pinky!🕹️ [Additional Offer Added for Willing Sellers!]

[hestu]

first off, sorry, this still isn't an offer for any of the remaining desired collectibles.

just that I'm getting increasingly more curious, so I figured I'd ask: do you know/remember around how many invaders and pinkies (pinkys?) were sold at the '17 fair?

Thank you for this information my friend and answering Lambda's question! I'm honestly surprised how low some of the counts are for certain things (like only 19 Goombas?)! Was this count made at the very end of the 2017 TBTF right before the staff closed access to that part of the shop? The reason why I'm curious about the timing is that I have read somewhere in the general collectibles discussion thread that there were 24 Rad Feathers in existence, not 22 for example (I think Alolan_Apples is the one that said it)? Also, if there were only 19 Goombas, why is it that it is the cheapest of the 3 arcade collectibles?

Ah, so it it could be off a little then? I always thought it would be nice if staff made a tool/reference that members could access through the shop area that would list the actual number of all collectibles in existence just so collectors are more informed of the real rarity of all collectibles in terms of supply without speculation (I don't think it would be too difficult to make such a feature either especially if the database in the TBT back end is configured a certain way)!

a... friend code?

TBT Fair 2017

19 - Goomba
22 - Invader
33 - Pinky

ok, but seriously, this is equal parts surprising and amusing. since from what I recall, goomba was meant to be the common-ish collectible, and pinky the rare one

I imagine they don't, since they feel like it'd be indireectly enforcing set market prices

even though, yeah. there's a stark difference between not enforcing a market value based on information and an information blackout that keeps the market ill informed

lmao was copy and pasting, guess it got jumbled

I definitely can see the benefits of both in keeping the market informed or uninformed in regards of determining prices, but I think the ultimate pricing factor of all collectibles is definitely demand at the end of the day (thinking how the Sweet Feather and Rad Feather are practically equal in value even though the Rad Feather is significantly rarer in terms of supply for example).

19 - Goomba
20 - Final Boss Feather

Seriously??? There are less Goombas than the intended rarest collectible of the fair??

This is all very discouraging information ... my Invader and Pinky dreams seem very, very elusive

Somebody, please have mercy!

 

[LambdaDelta]

hey, look on the bright side. this means you've already knocked out the rarest one

That's exactly what I was thinking when hestu shared the count of every 2017 TBTF collectible! xD I do still find it odd that the others are worth more though!

This is true ... lol ... the most difficult down, and only two to go ... I keep hoping

just a thought for both of you, but what about putting something about hunting for these collectibles in your sigs? in case anyone has and would be willing to part with, but don't really bother with the marketplace

That's definitely a good idea for sure, thank you for the suggestion Lambda! I'm already doing stuff outside of this thread as well in the background through PMs and forum searching!
