Don't throw the blame of shop prices at Jacco, (just because he has the balls to take a risk, price first and high) blame the game, blame the fact that it is so difficult and expensive to get a shop in the first place.
I'm not surprised that once people get their shop, they don't want to let it go. Unless you have been involved in the shops game, then you have no idea how hard it is.
From saving up your 5000T$, then getting your discounts (probably the hardest part), to then actually getting a shop, people go weeks and weeks bidding and not getting. I think that BbDamian took about 11/12 weeks to get his shop, and during that time, his discounts expired probably 2 or 3 times.. its a painful process..
I would also like to add that it is due to Jacco, Gucci911 and myself that prices were kept low last week. We made an agreement, that I would supply him with designs for gifting and he wouldn't compete, giving everyone a reasonably easy week. If he hadn't done that there would have been 4 competing sending prices through the roof last week too...
Anyway.. just felt like blogging this
oh.. and I made a cute new brunette 'updo' as people have been asking gucci911 for more brunette versions of my hairs. oh.. and I put the new survivor wording in the correct order.
90% of tengaged will never receive a shop during their time here. It's something that really frustrates me about this website, b/c the people who complain are usually the ones who have never had shop, or don't understand the shopping game. It's just a game that only exclusive people can play, so unless you've participated in the shopping game (owned an open shop) then you really can't say anything, b/c your argument is one sided.
I completely agree with this blog though!
