I love going to the Trading Post! It's just that the prices are real high sometimes. So, I wanted to see what other people think and warn the citizens of Whyville about the scammers at the post.

I asked five basic questions. Here it goes . . .

deadhead2: What do you think about the prices in the trading post? Do you think they're too high or what?
paiggers: I think that we should not have to pay the 5 clams to trade
darkpixi2: I think the price to sit in a chair is expensive.
doodling: The charges in the trading post might be high but it's their fault if the prices are too high because no one will buy their stuff if it's too high

deadhead2: Do you think people shouldn't charge so much for "not so rares?"
paigers: Well it depends if they just sold out. If not I think the prices should lower a little.
darkpixi2: I think the price is way too high.
doodling: Like I said, if people want to charge alot for their rares no one will buy them.

deadhead2: Do you think there should be a maximum clam trade?
darkpixi2: No. I think you should be able to give how ever many you want.
paiggers: Yes. I don't think people should be able to spend too much.
doodling: I do not think that there should be one because what if someone wanted to get multiple rares, like 3 rares, and you needed more than what you can trade for then you might not be able to get it.

deadhead2: Should there be a trading fee?
darkpixi2: No
paiggers: No. People already spend too much there.
doodling: Yes, the trading fee is good because it's kind of fair because if you had a trading post in your house you would want to be able to charge so you could make money and keep it running and if there wasn't a trading fee some people would go around and just fool with the money.

deadhead2: What do you think about the rockhand prices?
darkpixi2: They're good when your not being ripped off.
paiggers: I love rock hands but what some people want for them is crazy.
doodling: Well me myself, I have 7 rocks hands, like I said before, if you put your prices too high no one will buy your items

Now, what I want to warn everybody about is this; people want and pay too much at the Trading Post. The rockhand is a great example because, when Akbar's sells rockhands, they are only 70 clams, but people buy and sell them for up to 1500 clams. Rockhands aren't the only item that people sell like this. People sell almost every item they put up like this. Well, a lot do anyway. Things that are only worth 50 clams can be sold for 100 clams there. Scammers need to be stopped or boycotted. That way, all of Whyville will keep their clams safe.
