The second Collector's Edition item was on sale today. The Chrome Diesel has stats of 60/116 and there are only 5,000 in existence (wink). I read in the comments yesterday that Zynga should slap a number on these things if they want to truly call them Collector's Edition items and I think that's a great idea. Like most people around the world, I was sleeping. If I'm awake at 9am, it means I haven't gone to bed yet so I don't have any information of how long it took to sell out.

This really sucks and excludes anyone asleep or not at home during that short period of time. It would be nice if they released them twice during a day, spaced apart by 12 hours - at least all players *might have a chance to buy one.
ReplyDeleteThank you for all you do Jennifer .. I have you coming up first in Google Reader each day :)
unlike yesterday's item which was over an hour late, today's CHROME DIESEL was released a minute before 9:00 AM PDT. Sales were slow compared to yesterday. At 10:15 AM PDT there were still a few left, so this one actually lasted well over an hour. I wonder if that is a trend that will continue, as people start running out of RPs and the novelty goes away of this new feature as the items keep coming out.

said it before, say it now, I wonder if normal marketplace items get bough more than 5000 times? I am really not sure about that considering how quickly they get obsolety, so actually those are collection items, not just these...
ReplyDeleteThere were just over 800 left when I got mine at 9:30 pdt.
ReplyDeletedon't even have chance to know how much it costs.
