Gems for Collectables

I noticed an odd thing today when creating collections. The cost of collectibles is not the same for all collections. I was missing four Food Carts to produce more Potions of Endless Energy and the price to complete it was 114 gems now obviously I'm not going to pay 114 gems for four Food Carts but then I noticed that to complete the Harvest Ritual for which I was also missing four Food Carts, I would have to pay 54 gems. Worse, for two Food Carts to produce a Sip From The Kettle it would cost 102 gems. So a Food Cart is worth 13.5 gems if you use it for one thing but 28.5 or 51 gems for other things. As paying to complete the collection still uses the other ingredients that I have (you aren't paying for *all* the ingredients just the ones that you are missing) I don't see why that is.

Nice analysis - Its called 'daylight robbery' or 'unfortunate ways a simple click mistake can take an extortionate amount of gems from users to provide little in return.


If you are still missing the carts then whisper me and I will send you them or we can set up a trade via TO - much better than paying that absurd price.

I don't need the collections desperately, I was just curious to see how expensive it was to make it up with gems. When I saw it was 114 gems I almost fell off my chair - bear in mind that if you are truly desperate you can buy an Exo basket from the merchant for 99 gems (which is also a terrible deal but that's a different topic). Then I noticed that it wasn't the same for all.

It's standard business practice, go to your local supermarket and compare the same items which are found in both school and office supplies.
