The helicopters are a bit ridiculous though.

I support BVG so much, 100%. But this price of a helicopter threw me off a little.

Maybe these are just like donation items. They did have a post where they said that buying Yoville severely hurt their bank and still is so maybe this is a way to help with real economic issues they are having and in that case, I'd understand.



well.. maybe, if they need cash, and we know they do... timers! timers ! timers !

want to see people spend $$$$ ??? timers.... timers .... timers....

I have no great sense or urgency to buy anything.. even if I want it.. I can wait.. wait till whenever.. weeks , months.. who knows.. I have no pressure, there is no rush.. I can take my time, it costs ME nothing to wait it out..

the only thing on timer.. is BVG bank account.. that will run out...

yes, I bought one too.... was a hard sell after removed, and is a harder sell now...

I would love to know how many of these helicopters are actually being sold.. my guess is not many at all

the original red helicopter was 100 yocash,yes, BUT, was also on a timer.. these are NOT on timer... that decreases value TREMENDOUSLY! :D



yeah i remember it was 100yc in stores. it immediately sold for like 100-150k, it was a horrible conversion rate for that one item. i sold mine because it took up so much of the room, you could hardly click on anything and not click the helicopter. i don't think the price is unreasonable at all, and it would be a slap in the face to those who spent 100yc on the red one if these were now offered for less. at today's yc rates it is fairly unaffordable though.

15yc for a hair seems cheap, were these ever a starter hair in these colors?

it is kinda a slap in the face.. we spent 100 yocash on a very limited time item(1 day event).. these are in stores forever and a day.. slapped, and my face stings a little :\

Are you wearing one of the hairs? It looks nice on you.. I tried them on and they didn't do anything for me... The helicopter is outta my league and that is ok... I don't use the cars or other things like that anyway that I already own .....



it's not a rideable, it just sits there, i think the propeller spins for a bit if you click on it (can someone confirm this?). it's hard to walk around a room with it in there, you end up losing half your clickable floor space if i'm remembering correctly.

Nope the red one released by Zynga on super Saturday was 100yo as well and since these were unreleased I really don't see the problem with pricing.

I was thrown a bit by the pricing of the 'copters then realized what they're going for in the market...way more than what they're now selling for...not sure why it's a coveted item...the hairs are just different colored starter hairs..fugly (to me) in 2008 and still ugly now but some like them and that's okay with me. I do like the stempunk dress and creepy cat though, so I bought both.

I haven't see the male hairs. Which ones were released? Some starter hairs look cool in different colors.

I will say that people pay well over 1 million coins for shoes, sunglasses, eyes, lips, etc....

I certainly don't. I remember when the original red one came out for 100 YC. That was at a time when prices in general were much lower. When releases were much cheaper, 100 YC for a red helicopter seemed astronomical.

Given the fact that we are talking 'unreleased' then yes, I think the price is fair. I, for one, didn't even know that they existed.

Anyway, as has already been said, no one is forcing you to buy anything. :)
