CW Pawn Shop: Open!

Pawn Shop Guy Plushie
The Custom Wearable Pawn Shop is now open! You have until 11:59pm on May 14 to grab items before the shop closes.

Just a reminder, you can not pawn custom wearables while the CW Pawn Shop is open. You'll have to wait until next week to do so.

Note: If you are looking for wigs, check 'head' instead of 'hair. We're aware they're categorized wrong and will likely not be able to fix it before the shop closes! We are also aware there is an issue where not all CWs are showing (there aren't blank pages, that isn't the issue). If Keith does not get a chance to fix this before the shop closes on Sunday, we will figure something out in terms of reopening or extending the shop. More information to come!

@Darkrai Cool, so the stuff I can't afford this year, could still be there next year? Fingers crossed the world doesn't end before then, lmao.
Darkrai
@Nomi_Barei they stay in there for the next time the shop opens.

The pawn shop was completely emptied out one time, but only that once and it wasn't exactly well received
Nomi_Barei
What happens to the unbought items?
StarShadow
@Darkrai Yes I understand that these are "used" CWs and staff aren't going to add any, when I asked if any would be added I meant what they said about fixing whatever the glitch is to get more to show up. Thanks.

Well, I've spent my last CSC and I'm broke now xD but I don't regret it at all! What I like about the pawn shop is that in addition to being able to put my hands on cw that I have in my WL, I always find a bunch more that I didn't know and I end up buying them without hesitation, and those are usually the ones that I like the most in the end. There are so many treasures hidden in there u
Darkrai
@StarShadow Short answer: No.

All the CWs in the pawn shop are ones that have been pawned by other users, so when the pawn shop opens, it just shows whatever has been pawned. Staff doesn't add items, and items don't show up in waves or anything. There is currently a bug, as explained in the edit to this news post, where not all CWs are showing up (for instance, any items with a teal star instead of a gold one are not showing up for some reason). This is going to be fixed eventually, so technically (assuming the current opening just gets extended or something rather than closed + reopened after the fix) "new" items would show up then. Still just items that other users have chosen to pawn though.
StarShadow
I keep seeing the same CWs in there every time I check. Were they going to put any more in?

i've wanted this since it came out!! was so excited to see it in there

I need to stop adding more items to my WL but I can't! There's so many cute stuff I want <3
Solas
@Colorful Thank You for explaining things for me ๐Ÿ˜ I had wondered why there were 2 different colored star on the CWs. I just never thought to ask anything about it, until today ๐Ÿ˜†

Teal is commonly known as a mix of blue and green. Some people consider it more green, some consider it more blue. It’s almost as if all our eyes are unique and view things differently than other people…
Shelbie
For those concerned about not seeing many WL items, several people have posted the reason why not much is showing up. Give staff time to look into the reasons why.
Kinky
Wishlist items and items I am buying just because I'm now discovering them. I love the pawn shop so much. Thanks!
StarShadow
Not complaining, just very disappointed that not a single WL item is in the shop. Maybe next time. Surprised at how short the list for some of the layers is.
Colorful
@Solas
Every CW with a blue/teal star are all of the CW's that have been approved onsite since they did the CW changes 3 years ago.
Meaning, every blue star CW that has been pawned in the last 3 years has never showed up in any pawn opening. There's about 50-60 pages worth of new (aka blue star cws) that are stuck in there.
There are lots of hidden treasures in there that are stuck, we want to see those hidden treasures lol.

It will also probably help the site immensely if these CW's were released to where they can be purchased. Means more money for Subeta!
Solas
@Narshe Thank You, but that still doesn't tell me why it is so important to everyone one. ๐Ÿค”
And if it is blue then why does it look teal/light green. Last I checked blue isn't teal/light green ๐Ÿคฃ
Narshe
@Solas
Blue star = Teal star
Same type of item.
Hunger
Aw, I knew I was missing something yesterday. We were getting set up with a better internet and I didn't get online all day, figures. It's okay though, probably saved some csc there, lol
Solas
I'm going to ask this since I can't find anyone else asking. What is a blue star cw? ๐Ÿค” I'm not sure I've ever seen one, yellow and teal are the only ones I've ever seen.
METROID
no worries @Amber, it's definitely a weird issue. I know nothing about the CW world, but everyone has been kind enough to explain some of the basics to me too! I know you guys will figure it out!
Shawny
Got one item at least. Poor af irl. Sorry I can't afford real money to spend on literal pixels.
Anrivef
Some of y'all have never been poor and it shows laughs then cries XD
Malachi
people are mad at there not being more items and mad at the fact they bought things they wanted...? there's so much cool stuff for less than $3 a pop though??
I had 3k CSC to start and I wish I had more because there's literal pages of things I want, even things I didn't know about before, and I'm always astounded to find really nice items there that can be used for a multitude of outfits! People can be super creative with the things they make and the art is so lovely on so many wearables, I don't know how y'all don't get lost in the pawn shop for hours like I do.

thank you to the staff for doing the CW pawn shop and for trying to handle its issues as best you can!
Amber STAFF
UPDATE: I've done a lot of searching as to what could be happening between showing the different color stars (which is something I also had to have explained to me). From what I can tell with the code, it's not really pulled on by CW categories, more layers + rarity. I've searched every place (and more) to see what could be the problem as well as checked CWs added at different times and can not for the life of me find a common thread. I've put all my findings in a message to Keith, who is currently sick.

If he doesn't get a chance to look at the shop before the close date, I do have some backup plans. It could mean extending the shop or opening later this month. It depends on what he says and his health!
Jasper
@Theatre let me clarify: the items I purchased aren't a "waste," per say, but I may not have picked them over newer, morely sought after CWs. I mean, have you seen my priority lists?! They're rather long and there are so many body mods I'm after as well i would've preferred over some of the items I've gotten today.
Valiska
I'm not sure it's only blue CWs that are missing because a lot of the items on my WL are old items, and I have never before opened up the wishlist view one hour into the sale to find 8 whole items instead of 2 pages.
Theatre
Everyone check the staff forum posts for an update from Galaxia on this!

And send good thoughts out into the universe to Keith, sounds like he needs them right now!
Roadkill
(for those wondering, staff is aware of the blue star issues. keith is sick with a bad case of COVID though and it likely won't get fixed before the shop closes)

Pawn shop said nom nom the blue star items.

Thank you to @Nicole for pointing out to me that on all the past "What did you get from pawn" threads, not a single blue star CW was mentioned as being hauled from the pawn shop.

May 2021- https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/917267/Post-what-you-got-from-the-cw-pawn-shop
December 2021 (combo pawn shop and CW sale)- https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/923025/So-what-did-you-get-during-the-sale-amp-pawn-shop-opening

May 2023- https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/931701/What-did-you-get-from-the-Pawn-Shop-v2

So it looks to me that ever since the CW changes not a single blue star CW has been seen or purchased from the pawn shop.
My mind is blown!
I hope they haven't been lost and that this can be fixed D:

Please note that one of these threads is a joint BF Sale and Pawn Shop Hauls

I don’t think there have ever been blue star CWs in the shop. that would definitely explain the blank pages. I hope this gets fixed, it looks like I would have another 6 pages of WL items to look through!
Patronus
No blue star CW's :/ I had def. pawned some off too... I hope it's just a bug.
METROID
@Amber
It might behoove you guys to look into the issue with lack of blue star CWs. This one and the last one had nothing but gold star stuff? There is absolutely no way blue star stuff should not be showing up over the last two CW pawn shops.
Theatre
@Jasper nope! Not what I’m saying at all! If you feel the things you purchased were a waste of your money you shouldn’t have bought them to begin with lol. I’m still happy with everything I purchased. I’m just curious about the newer items as well.
Disasters
22,128/63360 CWs on site are blue stars… but somehow not a single CW in the pawn shop is blue star… this… doesn’t make any sense. Can this please be looked into? Maybe the blank pages finally make sense.
Colorful
@Jasper
I wish I could say I was joking but we've all but confirmed it at this point in TGC discord :sweat_smile:
All those blank pages, we are pretty sure are where the blue star CW's are hiding lol
witch
No blue star CWs? Were they sucked into a void? What’s going on? :/
Jasper
@Theatre Wait, are you telling me I wasted my csc on oldies because the newer items are bugged?! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜ญ I want my money back. This is a joke!
Hedgehog
where are newer items?
Hedgehog
where are newer items?
Theatre
spacemage put together some customCSS so it shows the stars in the pawnshop, and that confirmed that there are no blue star items present. We are wondering if that’s what the blank pages are.
Nicole
I'm also thinking back to my previous pawn shop grabs and realizing I've never gotten any blue/teal star items....
Colorful
I’m starting to think blue star cws have never showed up in pawn this whole time :joy: This would explain all of the blank pages.
Lawd have mercy :joy:
norfie
Wow, I generally don't have a lot of CWs on my wishlist, but there was actually one I wanted in the Pawn Shop this time! Awesome! Thanks for opening this up for us!
dalice
Oh! Maybe the blue star cws are why we have the blank wl search pages past page 1! :o
That_One_Elf
Has anyone found anything newer in the pawn shop? Something with a blue star? As I know I pawned a few newer items but never saw them in there. All I see are items with gold stars in the pawn shop
Colorful
@Amber
I’m not sure if staff is aware but a few us are pretty sure that only gold star CW’s are showing up in pawn this round and no blue star CW’s :sweat_smile:
Which explains why it seemed like so little was in pawn this opening :sweat_smile:
Just pinging in case you didn’t know <3

Thank you!
Xia
First time this year that I skip this cuz I don't find anything I need, not many pawn this year also. Enjoy, guys!
Jazmine
Sad thar I missed getting any kitty companions if there were any in there. Gonna dig for other WL treasures though ๐Ÿ˜
