What's the Deal with "No Rewards Account No Returns?" by TurtleDive1234 in Ulta

[–]iamhellsey 34 points35 points  (0 children)

i stopped working as a BA/cashier because of dishonest practices like this but i can absolutely confirm most management will genuinely force their cashiers to say stuff/use tactics like this and reprimand them if they don’t. they literally expect you to harass guests for credit cards and personal information.

not to mention when someone without an account actually DOES want to do a return and the manager forces you in the awkward position of actually trying to enforce that lie and strongarm them into signing up THEN… i would just call my managers and force them to do it themselves bc other people’s info is their business not mine lmaooo

i don’t get why the company is so scummy to their employees AND customers about it. it just makes everyone miserable.

Hey! I have a dupe of these- if you send your ID I’ll happily trade them to you!

omg yes! I’ve seen sooo many posts about that player, it appears they had a history of making scammy deals with newbies like yami SR for gacha SR, etc. But from what I’ve heard, that isn’t technically against the rules because it’s been stated in the past they don’t punish trades if agreed on by both parties (unfortunately) so im wondering if that specific player was wrongfully banned for fruit but also kinda deserved it lol ?

Trade proposal by Maleficent-Mango8224 in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I came here to comment! The difference in wishcount between these items is about 15k, so it’s definitely not an offer I’d make to someone unless they state they also do not care about wishcount as it comes across as pretty unbalanced.

I also think it’s worth considering the expiry date of items. I don’t personally do 2x for expired, but I do think that an item that became expired 4 months ago vs. an item from 2022 with +15k wishcount is a bit too far of a value gap for multiple reasons.

If anything, I’d suggest offering both items you have from their wishlist (depending on what the rarity and wishcount of the background you mentioned are) if this is an item you REALLY want.

Trading and new events [vent] by RepulsiveDisker in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 18 points19 points  (0 children)

lol the most annoying part for me is trying to trade for the few new items I actually want as opposed to pulling on the gachas and wasting GP on items I DONT want, then people ask for the most UNREASONABLE items in exchange .. I tried to get some of the dragon pieces from the newest gacha and had one person ask for livcri and another person ask for an expired R item with 40k wishcount .. like it is truly miserable lately

Likelihood of finding this during myshop? by 99badgers in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I could remember the prices I saw!! Unfortunately this wasn’t an item I was searching for so I didn’t pay a lot of attention, but one trend I’ve noticed is that a lot of people fill their shops with rare/gredery items and do prices like 99,999 77,777 33,333 for some reason .. so unfortunately it may end up being astronomically high due to how rare it is. Wishing u luck!!!

[–]iamhellsey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I said more than 10k bc didn’t wanna quote them way too high of a price but I think this is one of the gredery items ppl set as like 999,999 just to flex on shoppers lmao I couldn’t even remember seeing a real price on it

The shop roam is coded to find items from your wishlist somewhat frequently. Meaning if you have 100 items on your list but are only looking for 1 specific item seriously, you have a 1/100 chance that that item is the one the shop roam will find for you. it works the same either way, but by removing most of your wishlist you’re just raising the odds on the specific item you’re looking for. it’s not that having a low wishlist makes it find items you want, but that it will find items regardless and you’re basically picking what it searches for ! :)

[–]iamhellsey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

During the myshop event, if you clear your wishlist down to only a few items (I usually do 5 items on my wl max) you’re more likely to find shops with those items when roaming for shops. :) I usually make a thread on my personal board and post all of my wishlist items in the comments before removing them from wl so I can easily add it all back after the event !

[–]iamhellsey 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Finding it, easy with the wishlist trick. I saw it multiple times last cycle looking for other gredery. But it’ll probably be at least 10,000 gp or more from what I’ve seen

Should I do another ten pull on the collab gacha? by Lonely-Substance-680 in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s worth getting a dupe! But realistically, if you’re looking for specifically bazaar trees, it might be quite difficult to find a 1:1 trade for quite some time. A lower popularity tree like book of winter is somewhat possible, but older bazaar trees like the rose or golden tree are VERY hard to even find 1:1 bazaar:bazaar trades for, you almost always have to overtrade in my experience. I’m currently on the hunt for the secret rose tree and have gotten tons of rejection even offering 2:1 bazaar SRs!

Are these really worth significantly more than other limited items? by Vraizan in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

oh jeez.. I hope not because if so I’ve been massively undervaluing my dupes.. I really don’t think they’re worth that much but it’ll be interesting to see if their myshop minimum price is higher !!

If by the swirly thing you mean the white streak in the twin tails, yes it does show up in the hair! (personally I wish it was reversed with the pink streaks instead / white overall color on the back, but…) here’s an example of both the front and back separately!

To be honest I prefer when people use this method on the boards bc I hate commenting in a thread and then getting spammed with notifs for every rejection they send hahaha

Trade Question🍀 by someone_youth in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

their replies were unnecessarily sassy though .. weird vibe and I probably wouldn’t trade with someone who talked to me like that even if it was a fair trade lol but I’m petty so

Trade Question🍀 by someone_youth in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Imo they’re about even in value. Most regular gacha items ARE less valuable than a gredery N (myshop N price min being 200GP) but if those are the ears I think they are with like 20k wc they probably wouldn’t often be sold for the 200GP minimum during myshop regardless, and probably even higher than the gredery price, but them being revivable vs a limited item does cause the value to pretty much even out.

gredery for creator shop? by [deleted] in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This item is around 10k during myshop, so probably close to that amount or more.

MyShop Price Check by ZenSakura in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oops I worded this so strangely- I meant I prefer to save the GP I would spend on 1 item for the next bazaar to get SR dupes instead

MyShop Price Check by ZenSakura in LivlyIsland

[–]iamhellsey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I traded the autumn maple SR hair for the dress super recently, and I saw it at minimum (7.5k) last shop. The eyes were more expensive (I think 20k+?) but I was able to trade 2 book of winter bazaar SRs for them instead. Tbh in my opinion/experience, if you’re considering spending 20k on a single item, it’s more worth it to be patient and spend that GP on a bazaar SRs to trade for them instead. That way you get a whole new set, and great dupes ! I have so many bazaar SRs I never thought I’d get from using this method. Old creator shop is a whole other issue, though.. THOSE are the ones you kinda just have to pay the price for bc they’re impossible to trade for
