Title: Shield Table released 9-7-07
Post by: kangapal on September 07, 2007, 07:12 AM

I saw that the shield table was finally released today.

It is in Ned's shop under specials.

At 2000 credits, I won't be buying more than one!

I was just in the Ned Store!  I could not get over the price.
After all it is just a table, right? 2,000!  :wtf?:

For that price it should do something besides just being a table!

For that price it should come with a dancing gnome or something!

Pretty bad when the table cost the same as the expensive guest rooms!

Bright, glad the tab is paid.

LOL!!!    :lol:   To be vmk rich, I don't even know how that feels yet, LOL  Well I think those ropes are like 25 or 50 credits maybe?  Not sure, as I'm not on vmk.  So multiply that times probably 4 ropes needed (because that 2,000 credit table, isn't even that BIG!) ... so that's another 200 credits at the most.  Don't think I'd break the bank that bad on a 200 credits.   ;)  And if I do, I'm in serious big trouble come vmk Halloween and Christmas shopping time!!  And will be looking for a Loan Dept., or a vmk credit card.  Wow, the trouble I could get into with that!  >:D

Ant:  ROFL!!  You crack me up!!    :rofl2:

This is one of those items that was long awaited items (like it needed more testing or something - its a table  :wtf2:) Anyway, I am glad it is finally out, I would appreciate the price more if in fact it had been removed from sale this morning and went into semi retirement.   That is the function high prices should have in maintaining a balance between it's rareity and availablity to all.  I am not a huge fan of having things be rare and such but price and time would be my prefered control methods.  Going back to Beta, we never knew they would yank everything out of the stores so we figured it would stay then they took it all at once.  Ever since I buy several of everything, but based on the price I bought a few extra tables.
