Wtf happened?

One recent change Gaia made which I enjoyed was the Inventory sell-back option for Gaia Tokens. I thought they were going in a good direction with this as usually it is difficult to sell Tokens on the MP and since I myself don't play Slots or Poker, it was a profitable way for me to get rid of them so they wouldn't be cluttering up my inventory. But within the last month, I can't recall exactly when it started, Gaia lowered the sell-back price of the Tokens. When you were able to sell the Tokens from your inventory, you'd get full price for the amount of Tokens you had (1 Token = 1 gold) but now Gaia has cut the exchange in half so you only get half the gold for the Tokens you have (10 Tokens = now: 5 gold, 50 Tokens = now: 25 gold). Personally, I feel like I'm being ripped off. I want to know if anyone else has any thoughts on this new change.

Wow. What a rip off.

I've always hoarded tokens til I've gotten a decent amount ( a couple hundred to a couple thousand), then I sell them in the MP. And, I never have any trouble selling all of them.

Might have something to do with more tokens appearing in the daily chance recently. I mean, its rare for me not to get like 25-100 total daily on average, so this might be their way of "even-ing" things out.

Sellback values (including for tokens) have been at 50% of purchase price for as long as I can remember. I think this is less a recent change and more a recently noticed change. wink

You can sell back your gold mountain tokens from your inventory. It gives you 1=1 ratio. not the 1/2 gold crap. I guess that would be kind of hard to do when the tokens are only worth 1 gold anyway. Not unless gaia wanted to get even more stupid and introduce the cents portion.

I think it still is 50% if you do it in a bundle of tokkens. If you do them one at a time then it is a 1 to 1 deal. But who the hell is going to sell back hundreds of tokkens (even 25) of the damn things 1 by 1? >/
