someone is still donating?

 

how much are you paying for each item?

[ceterisparibus]

If you donate 5 items r90 and up, you can get a random r90+ item, which COULD be a r99 but isn't necessarily one. 

 

But only in certain categories right? Stamp doesn't seem to be included

You have to donate an item from these categories:

 

Book
Booktastic Books
Brightvale Books
Clothing
Cog's Togs
Desert Scrolls
Faerie Books
Neovian Attire
Neovian Press
Qasalan Tablets
School Supplies

 

and you can get an item from any category, including stamp.

You mean the charles cheat?

Yes.

I tried tweaking it just now but no effect.

That is a cheaper way to donate since there are books in the general store for a fixed price

I see, thanks!

I've been getting shit so far.

 

Actually if anything, this is the perfect time to buy off any super rare items that you might need e.g. stamps, books since the market is flooding with them

Not any category, so far you can't get Magic items (like MPs) or Petpets.

[Branlaur]

Yeah, pretty sure the rewards you can get are books, clothing, ccard, food, grooming, petpetpets, school supplies, stamps, and toys (from personal experience)

 

Edit: Oh yeah also SLM pieces so probably also the other map pieces as well too

I guarantee you at least 90-95% will be junk items. I donated last year and spent about 300k or so and got garbage every time. Most people that have talked about donating seem to get garbage as well. More than likely you'll make more NP selling this garbage than trading it in at the Charity Corner. If you want to take a chance it and end up trading 5 items for 1 item that might not be worth it. The items I got last year werea Orange Kougra Print Rug and a Neopian Time Issues Issue 3. I can't remember the rest. I said forget it. Unless you hit the jackpot you're going to waste lots of NP trying to get that r99 item and might end up spending more than it's worth.

but gambling is fun

Come join me in my cardboard box.

[Branlaur]

Or if you get lucky you make huge profit (sitting on probably 80 milish of profit so far from gambling about 100 times). Then gambling is fun

Whoop time to donate r90 crap again and hope for some r90-99 stamps for my collection :3

[Rickster]

i dont know much profit im sitting on because most of my items have went unpriced. i did sell one already for around 3-mil because the offer was there.

[ceterisparibus]

So....is buying for r90 stuff worth it? I'm hearing some people making huge dough off this, but at the same time it seems so risky. How was it last year?

[Eefi]

Only donated junk from my SDB last year and got at least a r99 stamp and some other stuff. Don't think I'll stock up on r90+ junk for gambling.

There was the same effect. The prices stayed at about 25k a piece for the donated toys

this time the range is so big so maybe about 15k?

 

It is the one that ask for specific items that earned tons of nps for some people

a junk at 1np at midnight shot to 100k in minutes.

Not seeing that part come back but there is an avatar so???

[neopetsexploded]

Where did you read that an avatar will be awarded for this year?

The range was bigger yea, now it's just a bunch of rather specific items if you look at the donated items. I really do feel that if you really want to gamble, go for books/brightvale books since they have more than 1 source (other than shops) that makes them generally cheaper. 

And there's an avatar in it too?! Any news on that?

This was found so it should be released with the Corner this time.

 

But no idea on the requirements

 

I would use clothes cos there is a large database and some dailies give them out too

I think this warrants a discussion and maybe even research, especially if it becomes a daily. 

Maybe we could look into the items donated involved and try to find a pattern?

 

Clothes do have the daily thing, but brightvale books have the advantage of being given out by wise king dailies too. I won't be surprised to see more people doing it.

TNT is just trying to remove items that clog the system

so it is mainly junk you get from dailies and what nots.

And it is not a daily thing, it is a yearly thing. last year was winter Toys, this year Autumn (school supplies)

 

Books are expensive as there are reading awards and books disappear. Not clothes.

[neopetsexploded]

oh.. so it's just a gif you found not on FAQ? Then it's just speculation for now. Interesting though, because the daily 5 different items don't seems to be back so the requirement for the avatar is hard to guess.

Actually i am glad it is not back.

It was crazy.

 

Maybe it is awarded at the end as long as you donated?

Ya it is just speculation

But if it can be found then it should be released

 

TNT seem to be working to put things right with all the new stamp albums for the stamps/shells they released for months
