On the other hand, I do agree with others that it decreases csc in the system. I know it's a pawn shop and everything. But I think it would be nice to make it so that people who want csc for items that wouldn't sell or are quickselling to make 300 csc. The CWs would then sit in the pawn shop till someone comes around and purchases them for 300 csc.

Posted earlier that this was a good idea. Obviously had not paid attention to what is going on. Sell something you originally paid 600 or 700 for and get 300. Buy something that somebody paid the same high price for originally for 500 when they got only 300 for it in the pawn shop. Not nice. This is going to put a damper on the CW business for sure.

Thank you so much for this!

I was having the hardest time selling a CW and this made a great solution. I'll definitely be stalking the shop for CWs other people sold to Jeremy. C:

I actually like this new cw shop, primarily because it gives me a chance to sell off some old cws that NO ONE will buy and at least make some csc from them. I've had some cws that no matter how low I price them simply won't sell and at least this gives me a chance to get rid of them, and still get back some csc in the process.

I would like to see a "set alarm" so you can get a ping if you want to sell another CW. Also would like to see a "just in case" button when buying to make sure you are buying the CW and not just an error.

Not the best idea subeta's had. This will make CSC even more scarce and I don't like how it just gets reabsorbed by subeta. The CSC made there should be randomly given out to users who can't or never have bought CSC before. Why? Because CSC costs REAL money to get and all this will do is force people to buy MORE CSC, because there will be no second hand market anymore. People's impatience will win out and no one will be selling CWs at a discount anymore. :/ Which is pretty unfortunate for the userbase and disgustingly greedy of you guys.

I really love Subeta but features like this make me seriously consider quitting. Hell, I've already spent double of what I spent on subeta during the first six years before CW's were released. Now is that entirely your fault? No. I can take a good two-thirds of the blame here but I also have an impulse control and hoarding issues which I think you guys are preying upon a bit. Also, CW's shouldn't be five dollars each. They should be, at most, three dollars since DI's are 2.50 a pop. I don't think it would cut into profits either since, if it's cheaper, more people will be able to make and bother with CW's so more people will be buying. But whatever. Cute idea but it's too much like mainstream videogame trade ins. You don't see any equal trade or value but it helps kill the second hand market. Way to go.

200 extra for Subeta? Come on. 500 csc were already paid by the creator. No discount, in fact a nice increase.

I really don't like the way the regular item pawn shop is run now. /: I don't like the pricing, the fact that some items are no longer accepted, and that there is a SIX hour sell restriction.

Omg yes! Im so excited about this. I usually sell cs shop wears for 300 if Im in quick need. Now I no longer need to wait for them to be offered on!

I don't understand why people are even complaining. I've seen CWs on the forums that have been priced at 250-300 CSC without ever being sold. I guess if you expect more than 300 CSC for the item, don't consider using the system?

From my POV, this was actually implemented for people who have less popular CWs that really won't sell even at low prices, and not for people to sell back the CWs they no longer want..That's what the R200 forums are for. No offense meant to anyone.

Making a batch of 10 CW costs 5000 CSC, so 500 CSC is the minimum you should pay for them officially.

cw are already 600 in csc and on CW forums, sometimes CW on CW forums are 700-900csc.

That's called pawning, You never get full value for what you pawn.

I like this idea, but I think 500 CSC for a CW is a bit much. And why do you only get 300 CSC in return for one?

I've been wanting this feature on Neopets for their cash items for years. I don't know how often I'd use this feature, but it's really good to know that you can at least get some CSC back for items that just won't sell.

I think many people are buying from here because it's way more impulsive friendly. See a wearable that looks cute, better snag it now, even if you don't like it you can sell it back and only lose 200 CSC.

"if you dont want an item dont click it" I didn't click to buy. I was just trying to add it to my WL. The regular pawn shop does not cost you CSC if you accidentally click something.

None of the CWs I want are for sale anywhere anyway so wouldn't show up in the shop. But I don't plan on giving any I have away for half price either. Interesting idea though.

Several people have accidentally bought an item. :( It would have happened to me as well... I just happened to be out of csc. Really needs a confirmation button. And I think EmilyMae and Alchemy should be reimbursed as well. :(

Okay yeah I'm with other people. How are CWs I haven't been able to sell for 300-400 csc selling out so fast in the pawn shop? xD It's a mystery!

I'm not sure I like this.. I mean, I like the idea, but 400 CSC would have been more appropriate, IMO.. Personally I don't see 500 as a nice discount enough , for things that don't sell on the boards, meh

Empty Pawn Shop View the regular pawn shop while it is empty! You have this achievement!

I wish they would buy for at least 400csc if they are going to sell for them for 500csc. But its still a great idea :)

I'm so confused at why an item I've been trying to sell for like a month in my shop for like 9m sold here super quickly for 500 csc, i would have liked that extra 200 csc :c
