Wow, the medicine's gone up to about 10k in the 30+ minutes since Pickle posted -- I took out 200k and stocked up (got 22 of them) -- I'd get more, but I really should be finishing up my last take-home. I also found a slingshot in my inventory -- it looks like they've gotten to the j's in fixing the glitch.

Blue graffitied on my signature... But it made me laugh, so it's all good!

I bought several at 12.5k, but I'm not sure if it was wise or not. A lot of times when people think something will go up in price, it goes way way up on the first day, and then back down again later. Or else it stays the same. At least it's a cute item that does something useful.

Couldn't be any dumber than my purchase of three Freaky factory plushies at 80k each :lol:

Siniri, I did the same thing. :) The prices seem to be hovering around 9k now, but in the long run, these can't be anything but a good investment, the way I see it. Maybe a medium to long term investment, but still. If they get up to where Sporkle Syrup is....well, then....
7k a piece times 25 = 175k.
330k a piece times 25 = 8.25 mil.
Profit = 8.25 mil - 175k = 8.075 mil

Of course, that's assuming the best case scenario, which may be years in coming... :P

Cool that they announced it. I just checked my inventory, and sure enough, I did get them. And promptly tossed 'em into the SDB.

I too just bought a dozen of the Pink Peppermint Pepto (at ~9k each). Worst case is I'm out a few NP and can cure Ugga for a while.

I also bought a plushie for 700NP, just because I could :)

Also, for what it's worth, eating the rat does not appear to give any kind of disease. My lab pet said she didn't care for it and she would not eat another one. Then again, my Lupe said 'Mmmm, delicious!'

EDIT: I just checked prices on Sporkle Syrup on the TP. As expected, the price is dropping. There's one listed for "only" 180k.

Heh, yeah. Ah well. Even if everything balances out in the high buyables range, I've still made a good investment. I've got 30 now, for about 200k total, and bought most at around 6-8k. They're roughly at 12.5k now, and it looks like they're going to go up more, too. Time to sit on 'em and wait it out. :)

Agreed. And since 2 hrs ago when you posted, they're already going for ~17-18k :)
I would expect that they will start going higher faster beginning tomorrow when "new" ones are no longer available.

Actually, they've gotten to SHE, but not SHI yet. According to the neoboards. I believe this is correct as I haven't gotten mine yet.

Looks like the Pink Peppermint Pepto is back around 10-11k for now. Time to sit and wait.

Fooey. Might be a long wait. At least no more will be issued and it's a one use item.

FWIW, Sporkle Syrup is back up in price on the TP (~250k)


EDIT: (avoiding double post...)

Poor Gormos!

Well, he is such an interesting character. I know he isn't really a hero, just someone who refused and order because he got tired of being treated like Dr. Sloth's personal maid. But maybe he'll change his ways if he ever starts actually enjoying the attention and admiration.

I hope we see more of him and I am a sucker for redemption stories, so maybe he'll end up having a soft spot for grundos one day. All that praise has to start wearing him down eventually. Although we do need a new villain to appear and liven things up a bit...
