Wow!! Thanks, I really appreciate this.
Wait...what was I trying to say?

I understand the complaints...it's kind of like buying a brand new Ford Taurus in 1999 for $25,000 and then 7 years later you can't get $1000 for it because it's really passé and your mate is really attached to the car and he thinks it's worth $25,000 because that's what he paid for it and it still looks pretty good, except for the dent in the fender that can't be fixed because it's plastic, and the windshield wipers go on by themselves because there is a demon living in the dashboard and the fuzz on the velour the seats rubs off on your pants and the tape machine eats tapes ( TAPES!!) and so you give it away to the Salvation Army because nobody wants it....I've had dirt, I don't like dirt, it tastes like dirt!-Hammy

@ People complaining that 'I bought this years ago when it was 'x' amount and now it's free'.
First off - really?
Guess it's true that you can't make everyone happy.
Second, when I joined subeta 7 years ago - a lot of things that I currently have were in the millions and millions of sp, I saved for them and bought them not knowing that they would become about 100k or less years later.
Am I upset?
No.
Thats a risk you take when you buy any high price item on this site. Calm down. Enjoy the gift, now you have two. Really doubt you were going to part with it anytime soon anyway.

Yusssssss!!! Many years ago, I had an account that I didn't really use and it got cleared. Rejoined and obviously regretted all the items lost. Now I finally have this back! *cries with joy*

In response to the surprise that such an expensive item became a Free Gift...it was a Free Gift to begin with. :) That's probably one reason that it went up so high. I suggest collecting free gifts whenever possible, for selling them later, because they're often not re-released.

Great this is free now. I only paid an arm and a leg to get one in the past ... which has now lost pretty much all value... so thanks for that.

I was eyeing off this little item just the other day and didn't quite feel the price tag attached to it was something I could afford anytime soon (well, not without stone-cold saving hardcore-ness XD)
Check the news today and LO AND BEHOLD =D
Thanking you for the lovely gift and another item checked off me wishlist! Y'all ROCK <3

For an item that's apparently almost 9 years old, the art on this still looks really great. (was it revamped at some point?)
Awesome free gift. Will have to try using it the next time I change my avatar. :)

I can at least understand the people who are upset because they paid a lot for this, but I don't see where the "work" is in collecting a Free Gift when it was first released years ago.
Thank you! :)
Thank you! :)

@Jazzy I have been on this site almost 9 years. It means different things to different people.
For me, its about all the things I have gotten over the years. I have put alot of work into my account.

For the first time in a very long time I am not happy with what you have done. I spent a lot of sp to get my two jars of dirt for my wardrobe and my gallery. Now in afternoon my account value has lost 27,500,000 in value..wow really? yes really!

for a second I forgot this was an old item and thought you guys released a tribute item for Johnny Depp. I've never googled something so fast before.

It's nice to release an item but at the same time, but as a user who has been with this site a long time, that's what made my account special.
The things I have collected over the years. Makes no sense to me.

I think it's awesome you re-release items from years ago! This gift was first released 6 months before my time and as you mentioned the price was sky high. This gives everyone a chance to pick it up and enjoy it. THANK YOU!

I spend 750K on this a while back, and yet I ain't even mad. Thank you to Subeta for being so considerate to new players as to rerelease this (and the folks who do have an extra and like toys can now dump it all over their pet, win/win.)

I just went to put this in my wardrobe and noticed... it is a TOY!? I can have my pets PLAY with this!?

Still glad to have this! I've wanted it for a while! <3 FOR MY WARDROBE.
