Lovely Vintage Hat Box




The Lovely Vintage Hat Box has been retired, and all the wigs that were kept safe inside are now in the Cash Shop as separate items!



For those of you who hung onto your Hat Box, it now opens up to 5 wigs each! How lucky ;)

i am totally bummed about this. i purposely bought "several" LVHBs to get the wigs and sell or trade my duplicates.

in one moment, my considerable cash investment became worthless, null and void. cash shop items should not be totally devalued like the wigs were.

this will certainly influence my future cash shop purchases, if i make any more. this was a real bad move, imho.

Wow, I just had 3 hat boxes and used them all. xD

Will the box ever come back to the cash shop, or will it just be the wigs from now on?

Ah, that is a bit crappy for those of us that invested in half a dozen boxes, but lucky for those that still have them unopened.
Lol I used my 250 credits on a hat box as well and opened it yesterday. Looks like I wasn't the only one xD Oh well, no biggie. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" />
Kind of wish it had been like this from the start, especially after new wigs kept being added to the box and it was still random draw.
I don't mean to complain, as I spent my money knowing full well that it was down to luck which wigs I'd get. But still.. could have saved a fair bit just picking the wigs I wanted in the first place. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />
Oh well. Thanks for at least making all the wigs available in the Cash Shop after retiring the Hat Box. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I guess I should learn to be more patient...
@VampireLyra: Sorry, It wasn't my intention to sound mean. I just think people should be grateful that they got something for free. And those who bought the Hat Box before (like I did) shouldn't complaint, we always knew we would get two wigs and not more. So, I can't understand what people want. More wigs? <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_confused_shocked.gif" border="0" />
Oh poo. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_broken_heart.gif" border="0" />
Oh wow I feel like the luckiest person in the world. I bought one for 1.5mil this morning while they were deflated and was too lazy to price it in my shop yet <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
Good deal for the people who CAN wait. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Bakawaii, I find that mean. :
I almost bought the hatbox yesterday. XD
Ironic.....
lol Oh wells. Don't really care, since I nabbed some of the older wigs for dirt cheap this morning anyways. XD Missed out on 3 other wigs but they would have been older wigs anyways with my luck, meh. You win some you lose some.
But that's good you can actually choose your wigs now. So much better.. kinda |D
Awww that;s awful...I opened mine last night too (as most did LOL) and I wanted to have just a hat box at some point for a gallery.. :/ I have the worst luck ever.
I find it funny that most people that are complaining got the hat box with those 250 credits we got for free. So it was a 'free gift' and people are still complaining that they wanted more.
Of course that those who bought the Hat Box, lost the chance to get three wigs more (I too had bought before) but you paid $2,5 knowing you would get 2 wigs (they never said we could get more!) and I don't understand why there's so much complain now. People are greedy. XP
GYAARGH asdfghjkl I just opened my hat box yesterday! <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> smashes head into nearest tree

On the bright side, at least I get to choose which wigs I get now. But still... keeps smashing head bleeds
Thats a good idea...but i opened my box yesterday and got 2 sucky wigs. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />

drat not fair, but I will deal <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />
Awsome!
<img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" />
Thanks guys!
-I am soooo happy i saved some points ujst incase-
XD
I'm happy you set the price for just $1 too.
=3
-tempted to buy some points-
XD
DDDD<img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />

-words not fit for anyone's ears-

You tell me this after I use up my points buying -and opening! - a box? seriously guys.
nooo! right after i spent my cash shop credits! -headdesk-
You are a genius Keith. Thank you.
of course i opened mine, like, an hour before this....*headdesk*
...I knew I should have saved my credits. facepalm
Awesome!! I have been scooping up the LVHB's for awhile now and after getting 3 Dark Locks of Hair and numerous other duplicates, I'm thrilled about this move. Figures though that I opened them to make room for the large stash of Mysterious Costume Trunks, since I didn't know which ones would be retiring and wanted to get the ones I was missing before they went "PooF"! Also, I <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" /> the price you have them set at. Maybe you can do the same for stickers too? I am now the proud owner of 6 SD Ruffie Sticker and that's not counting the one's I've given away. I actually got 2 in the same pkg. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> I apologize for such a long post. bows head
Darn it....I bought 2 yesterday, and used them already ;o; no fair...
Yay! Thank you xD
Augh noooo. I considered saving mine but then opened it. D;
of course i just bought and used one today <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
User not found:
aww man..that hat box i bought was a waste..shouldve saved it
Oh man...what a waste I just bought and opened one this morning too, and one of the wigs I got I already had.
Oh well at least they're separated now.
Yay, thanks! <3
User not found:
awesome 5 wigs!!!!!!!!
I don't know if anyone has said this or not but ummm... Dark Burgundy Mess of Curls is NOT in there... ;-; Am I missing it?
Clearly the credits I spent THIS MORNING on the hat box that I opened was a waste. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
Yes! Now we can choose the wigs we want! <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
haha it changed the word I wrote that rhymes with witch...to "todog todog." when I meant to write people are going to "witch witch witch", LOL
Ahaha, kind of amusing but still quite evil. But I'd expect nothing less from Subeta. It is a game after all, and games require decisions and some luck.
Again, people are going todogbtchdogabout the price change!

I mean isn't the point of the hat box to get the wig we want and WEAR them in our HAs? It seems some people care more about turning a profit off the boxes and wigs than actually using the items. I know a lot of here are not made of real money so this helps us spend our money wiser...

but I suppose for those who just wanted to sell and make money of it, yeah it sucks for you and other price-hikers.

<img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> this is so awesome!!!!!!
Awww you guys are eeevil, you knew we'd spend our credits and then be hooked on buying stuff out of the shop...espcially since they're only a dollar!! <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> Evil...eeeevillll....LOL

I do like that we can buy the wigs we want out of the cash shop. And, I agree with Squirt for the actual hat box itself as an item. It's just those who are lucky enough to hold onto the right item for the right length of time, it's happened with many, many things in my time on subeta. You can count on items values changing with the happenings on the site.

I'm still happy with the system, the free credits and the wigs that I did end up with...they were free.
I'm happy that I'm able to pick the wigs I want now. I opened a few when it was 2 wigs each and got some doubles, and I hate having to resell. It would have been nice if this were in place from the beginning, sure, but it seems the cash shop is a work in progress. I'm still happy about the 2 extra pet spaces <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /> I wonder if this means that new DPs may be the same way at some point? I'd prefer that to random chance, but I don't know which way would make more money for the site.
And I'm sure some people like the element of surprise when opening the boxes. -shrug-
Yay this is great. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> yes those people that saved their boxes are lucky duckies! XD
User not found:
I think this is a good idea.. im sad I missed out on the extra wigs but hey at least I can pick the ones I want now instead of risking getting 2 40k wigs like I did one time <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy_sweatdrop.gif" border="0" />
Though now I wish I'd kept my hatboxes unopened (lol), I'm happy that we can buy individual wigs now. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I guess gallery owners really do have a valid complaint, though, since there will only be a few left on the site after this. Maybe after several months you could make the hat box unusable (so anyone who wanted 5 wigs would have plenty of time to use it), then give the item itself away as a free gift. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> Or something like that. Just an idea.
I saved my credits but now im wishing I would of bought the hat box this morning and stuffed it in my vault
People complain that they are not getting the wigs they want out of the hat box, so it's retired in favor of a new system and people complain about that. xD; Of course everyone is disappointed if they missed out on three free wigs, but over time I think this'll help out CS users by allowing them to pick and choose their items more freely. Maybe it's just the fact that it's giving out 3 more wigs now that's irritating people who spent money earlier.
no fair, the randomness made it easy for them to deflate, now the ones that don't get bought from there will stay at a higher price <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
surely this is a good idea and anyways there was no other possibility than doing what they've done
so we have the choice: keep crying or beeing happy that we won't need to buy hat box after hat box without getting what we wanted!
i'm happy with the new way =)
Well, you know I understand how much that must suck but honstestly, I mean I think it's a good idea because rather than spending endlessly to get the wig I want, i can actually buy it. In the end I think it works in our favor. I'm not going to freak out it happens same thing before with the christmas present hissyfit everyone had when the prices change. I'm just happy Subeta is here.
don't i feel jipped now. lol. I so wanted the pink hair do.. spent all 250 on the hat box and got 2 wigs i didn't really care for.. oh wells. c'est la vie.
User not found:
Man. I sold mine yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THanks for putting them in the shop though!
Yeah, I'm a little annoyed because I bought two hat boxes in the last week and only got two wigs from them, but what can you do? <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

i knew i should've waited to spend that free cash xD
oh mann -swiper snap-

Aww man! I opened mine yesterday!!!
I guess I should have seen that one coming.
Oh well. At least they'll all go down in price <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
hasn't worked that plan, hm?
more people are upset than happy and the hat box prices are ridicolous xD
fine lol
if i'm honest: i think that was not a really well thought-over idea

although i can't complain for me i understand that a lot of users will stay angry for a while
I think that's awesome... the wig prices were SO high!
darn! i was just about to buy it :
No..im very sure that in that box they are going to appear more wigs and they are going to be more expensive <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
It only makes sense, seeing as HATs belong in a HAT box. Hat Box =/= Wig Box.
Wah, this is better..but kind of lame since I used mine yesterday. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_angryface.gif" border="0" />
Thanks for separating them. I won't have to keep buying boxes and boxes until I get the wig I want. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" />
thanks so much for putting them in the cash shop!!!!!
So cool! I hate waiting for trades; it's so much easier to just buy the exact item you want. I know I, for one, am more likely to get a wig this way than through buying an entire hat box.
it kinda sucks becuase I used mine yesterday.
but I like this better. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" /> wigs will go down in price now yay.
I doubt anyoen will buy a hat box when wigs will be so much cheaper.
WHAT!?!?!?
well i got 4 wigs Muahahahaha
LOL
And I just opened mine earlier today. xD
I don't see the dark burgundy mess of curls.
er- spend my credits*
aww I wish I didn't buy my credits! I'm glad they are only $1 each

Keith, if you are trying to make it more and more tempting to buy from the cash shop- it's working. big time. x_x
So I bought several when it only held one wig. After spending that money, it was upped to two. More people bought it then. Now it can give up to five. I can see if it's been around a year or so, but it's only been what, two or three months?
Why does Subeta want me to stop spending money here?
Wow, it's amazing how many people this disappointed.

As for me, I'm glad I have something interesting to spend my 150 cash shop points rather than another stylish dress.
Ohhh, the christmas giveaway. Too bad I won't be able to stay up until 4 am for this next one. xP It would be nice though if there were lovely vintage hat boxes in it. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I just bought one... oh wells... I do have on in my gallery!!!
noo <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> and I bought one hoping to get some nice ones, and I didn't, and NOW you separate them..... gah, why didn't I wait to spend my credits.....
ah! I figured it out, when the hat box was first released it gave only one wig and then it was updated to give 2, that's what I was referring too (except my mind tricked me into thinking the number was 5). ANYHOW!
User not found:
NO! I was going to buy one!
CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP!I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE WAITED TO OPEN IT!CRAP CRAP CRAP.TT~TT
POOP. That was lame, I just bough one yesterday... and opened it.
Darn, I should have kept mine closed XD Maybe they'll be in the Christmas Giveaway? Nah, no chances.
goes to look up price for hat box Yup. Outrageous. Just like I thought.
Awww, darn. I just opened mine this morning. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
For some reason I thought I read somewhere a few weeks ago that said the hat box DID give you 5 wigs already.
Apparently I was seeing things but now its official. o.o

anyhow had one yesterday and I'm bummed <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
awwn, man, if i'd only waited a few hours to open mine <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
Ah well, at least I can finally get a wig I want. XD
I just wish we had the option to buy less than five hundred credits. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_xface.gif" border="0" />
Typical <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
bangs head on keyboard
Thats awful! <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> It shouldn't have retired...
It says up to 5 wigs meaning you still only may get 2 wigs if you open one. Honestly, it's better to go buy them separately.
I am going to say a lot of bad things right now.
Just not on subeta.
[...]
Darn. I should have saved mine <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
And I almost bought one a few hours ago... I suppose I can get two wigs I want instead ...
I'm so unlucky. I just bought one last night. :K

Dang!
-shakes fist at self, if that's possible-
The hatbox itself will skyrocket in value, I just realized. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_xface.gif" border="0" /> Not just for the 5 wigs, but since it's a retired CS item for galleries and such.
NOOO!!!! I opened mine yesterday <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />!
I dont see the Dark Burgundy Mess of Curls up for grabs in the Cash Shop. Am I over looking it or was it left out??
Now I wish I waited, could have saved myself from 4 cute blonde mop wigs. Ah well. buys the ones she wants XD
Yay for keeping one box unopened and giving it to my pet. Okay Alucard, give it back now so I can open it. Hmmm, I better just buy more out of the Cash shop. I dont like the sound of those growls (that is one boy who loves his hatbox!). Thanks Keith!
I'm happy about the way it is now but I opened one yesterday -.-;
i bough 8 boxes yesterday, in hopes of certain wigs.
oh well, thats the way it goes right?
A lil' disapointted the wig I traded for is so devalued though...

Yay for separates, but... that's kind of a gyp for anyone who's opened a hat box over the past couple days thanks to the new wigs.
Ohdarn. If only you'd said so a few hours ago XD

I love the idea of the separate wigs, though. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> Now that there's so many of them, people will definitely get what they want.
I think I have one. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Curse my luck.

Good move! <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
lol. I bought and opened 3 today (couldn't resist the new wigs). But now being able to pick them out individually is awesome. thanks
Thank you Keith <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Haha dangit. Wish I kept some!

Pam

@_vegetable_: Exactly the same here. Gave the Undine Wig thing to my darling now, best I could do with it. nods
Destiny STAFF
Sorry about my last post...I love that they are separate cause now I can choose what I want but I would have loved to be able to buy 5 wigs instead of 2 boxes of extra wigs I already have sigh
Ack, last comment messed up x__x
But seriously, are you kidding me?!
I'm so unlucky x__x
I opened one about an hour ago.
And now the wig I'm trying to sell will deflate too <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />

Purl of the Undine seems to be missing from the cash shop.
User not found:
Lol, this clears up alot, I just wrote to a UA to tell them I had gotten 5 wigs, I thought it was a glitch
Yay! I have mine and was about to sell it! What a nice turn of events! :3
I knew that something would happen when I buy me that Box with my free Cash Shop Credits I got. Uhm...okay. My bad luck is back. But hopefully some Wigs are getting a bit cheaper now. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
I fail. Seriously. <img src="http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/smilies/smiley_xface.gif" border="0" />
