I like releases done this way. With a timer, people can stock up and then really, how "rare" is it? Ya snooze ya lose. I hesitated when those animals were accidentally released, I him-hawed and by the time I came back to get them.. guess what? They were gone. I didn't whine or cry. That's the way the cookie crumbles. Life isn't always fair and ya win some ya lose some.
I kind of hope this wasn't a mistake. But we shall see......

Doesn't have to but it's certainly helpful.

It was in store a day everyone had a change to buy.

An Item Has To Stay Instore For 3 Days Or Its A Short Time Release. Thats Why Colectables Used To Have 3 Day Timers

I don't think that is a rule written in stone..it just became the norm. Tbh, BVG can do whatever the heck they wanna..it's their ballgame. I just HOPE they bring them back, for those players who missed the opportunity to purchase them legitimately.

Ya, But 1 Day Is A "Short Time" For A "Release".

Remember....BVG isnt Zynga

They go by their own rules and can and will do as they see fit

A bunch were released into the economy.....this may be their way to get people buying unreleased items on the chance they are only around for a short time

Gone already?

Yeah, but what about those who don't stockpile? If you want to get just one of something and you can't get in game to buy it, it sucks. If you don't have time to get in, you're on vacation and not playing for a few days, you have no power, etc. it stinks. I lost out on a few themes when moving because I didn't have internet for a week. To be fair, they were things I had plenty of time to pick up and I just waited too long, so I can't whine about that. But the other day we lost power for 12 hours. I'm fortunate it was back up for the bandana release but if it'd been out for a few days or something, I wouldn't have been a happy camper. I realize you win some and lose some but I still think a timer is a good thing. That way you know and you can pop in for just a sec to grab something if you can find time.

I dont know what they are going to do. Like what happened with Gary's shiny pants but a ton of them were released into the game. I've been watching the AH in the last few minutes every Rex under 1m has just sold. They are being bought up like crazy. Unfortunately that is why they will not be worth much, because lots of people have them.

I got a bandana so no worries for me. But for short releases, you can't always get in game to buy. For instance, if I go on vacation I don't log in much, if at all. But if there's a timer and I know it's going to expire, I will make an effort to find a couple minutes to log in if you can.

IDC what people say about the Rex. I love this stupid ugly thing and I refuse to sell it! Lol.

I DID buy one. I'm saying there are situations occasionally where one can't or won't be able to get in game. If you're planning to be away and there's a timer, at least you can get your stuff ahead of time so you don't miss out.

No, everyone DID NOT have a chance to buy!!!
Speaking for myself, I had a daughter-in-law in labor all day, into the night. Mt grandson was born and my internet was out. My internet just came back on!!!

why didn't you wait to buy one??? again, they probably will be back, but, why didn't you wait till next week to buy?? I mean, I bought 1 bandana and 2 hulk... I could have waited on the second hulk.. but, just in case they disappear (NOTHING NEW IN THIS GAME) then I be in a better position, right?
