I disagree. Although I'm disappointed with how few went out, as an achievement item I think it needs to be a bit more accessible than a 50k price tag. Achievement items shouldn't be limited to hardcore or wealthy users only.

Gone already? 3000 crystals steep for me anyway...
Silvy
I think I'd rather have 250 in the ecomony thrown out at once at a high price (50k?) than 15 at 3000 crystals o.o
Rogue
Damn, entirely missed the restock :'(

@Victoria
Most items aren’t like this, don’t worry! It’s a rare exception to our usual standard type of restock. Often if another item sells out really quickly, I’ll post a second batch later (like the token shop). So if something else here sells out quick, you can expect the possibility of another stock later. I try to do it at a different time of day to give more people a chance vs. just another stock 2 hours later.
Victoria
@Ariel Okay thank you for answering. I have never seen a restock of this item or anything else that only restocked a small amount at a time so did not know.
Ariel
@Victoria
Like the token shop (and every previous restock of this item I’ve done) subsequent restocks won’t be posted in the news. Good luck!
Senti
@Victoria I have no idea. There aren't prices in the trades on them so I guess you would have to contact the people and ask.
Victoria
Okay so what is a good offer on one? I probably can not afford it but does not hurt to ask I guess.

@Victoria

But with them being a stat booster it doesn’t matter how many actually go into the economy. It can boost pets stats a LOT every time you use ONE, so releasing too many of them could really affect the battle system rather quickly.

I understand being upset and disappointed at missing out but in this case how many go into the economy doesn’t matter at all.
Senti
@Victoria There are some for sale in trades
Victoria
I honestly do not think many(if any) would have went into the economy. I think just about everyone needs it for something since it has so many uses. Again I am not trying to be difficult, just really upset about this. Will the restocks be in the news? How will we know how many restocks there will be? Is this going to be an ongoing thing or will it only last a day or so?

15 in stock
3000 crystals
Sold out in less than 10 minutes

Can be used in almost every conceivable way.
Is tied to an achievement.
"{...} it’s a rare item and we don’t want that many going out."
"More will restock sporadically to give everyone a chance at being lucky enough to snag one!"
& there's a 30 minute cooldown for purchases in crystal shop.

@Victoria
Yup, that’s why we continue to release rare items. I can’t just dump 500 good stat boosters like this into the economy.

@Silvy they went in about ten minutes.
Silvy
Wow... seems they were gone in 5 minutes D:
Silvy
Wow they were gone in less than 90 minutes (not sure how long to be exact, but I just arrived home and noticed the news... got excited... and then disappointed they were all sold out
Bliss
Ok... I don't mean to complain, but come on ._.

This item is rare, so not many are going out, but if you release them in small batches the same users are going to grab multiple. I've been waiting one the remote for years. I've been really frustrated and upset with the site as of late. I think it's time to move on, but I just can't detach myself.
Diana
Dang!!
Mackenzi
Only 3000 crystals?? That seems cheap, no wonder they went so fast. I was expecting same as the battle spork at 50k.
Sydney
Plz release more, I need it for an edible and I am sure 1000% I am not the only one.
Dandelion
I understand rare items being kept rare, but this thing's main use is as a consumable. 90%, if not more, are going to be used as soon as they're bought. No matter how many go out, very few are going to actually enter circulation.

@Ariel

I support this message
Victoria
But the best part about Subeta is the availability of items. The fact that you can get retired items and old event items makes this site stand apart from other sites. It is upsetting that an item that we waited so long to be actually stocked again is not even going to be accessible by the majority of users. I am honestly not trying to be difficult, I am just really upset and frustrated. This is probably the most frustrated I have ever been with this site.
Frederico
Not many wil go out, but many will go to the same people who bought them the first time around. These short batches being restocked periodically are only incentivizing people to buy multiple remotes, as the timer will be gone when the next batch comes. I wonder for how long batches will be released - thinking of people with different timezones, who might not be able to grab one.
Senti
@Ariel Oh great now I will get hate mail LOL
Dandelion
Oh, okay, so I'll just sit here refreshing every five minutes for the next what, day or two? If the batches are that small there's a very, very tiny window to get one, especially now most of the site will be stalking. Great.
Ariel
WHAT AN EVIL* IDEA

*EXCELLENT
Senti
@Disasters Oops sorry :X
Disasters
@Senti

Shhhh don’t give them any ideas!!! Lol
Senti
@Ariel Will there ever be an achievement for feeding one to your pet?
Ariel
@Victoria
Because it’s a rare item and we don’t want that many going out.
Senti
@Bat You're welcome :)
dreamie
(sounds of distressed fragging)

@Disasters @Senti
Thank you!
Rick
Really? 26 minutes?
Victoria
Yeah those that are lucky. So the same people that bought one now can buy another one because their thirty minute wait will be over. Why can they not have 500 stock at one time so more people have a chance to get at least one like every other item in the crystal shop especially since they have so many uses? I am sorry I just do not get this at all. Why does it have to be so frustrating to get an achievement item?
Disasters
@Bat 3000 crystals
Senti
@Bat 3,000 crystals
Mayumi
WHYYYYYYYYYYYY
dreamie

Sasha

Yugyeom

Disasters
@Ariel thank you so so so much for that!! That’s amazing!!!
Ariel
More will restock sporadically to give everyone a chance at being lucky enough to snag one!
Thespian

Ploomy
That was a bit pointless, how much were they?
Thespian
LMAO WHAT
ARE THEY ALL GONE ALREADY
HOW
Victoria
Love to get my hopes up to be crushed. Why were there only a few that stocked? Why make it different than the other crystal shop items?

@Saturnine The directory says "Book, Food, sP Giver, Stat Booster, Toy, Item Giver, Weapon" so yes it has so many uses.
