I think everyone needs to chill out. Seriously. This is the pricing that they believe to be fair. Different company, different items, different prices, different rules. I think people still expect the game to remain the same, when OBVIOUSLY things HAVE TO CHANGE because if it didn't work the first time, it's not going to work again.

I don't think pricing had a thing to do with the game not working, but to say it's fair is a bit early too bc they're just now getting some feedback from the players.. I would hope they give pricing more consideration.

I think that if Zynga wasn't making enough money on the game, it probably helped them to lose interest in keeping the game up.

i logged on the other day and seen hair for coins... how cool is that?!

Great seeing coin hairs in the stores again. The new stuff are good like the earrings for 250 coins. I think there some more good clothing and items to come. Thanks BVG with your first new items!

I can speculate too, and boy, I have some doozies, but that's not one of em lol ZYNGA lost money/players for a variety of reasons, but I was never disappointed in how they priced their yocash items. I thought they were fair about that and there were times I thought they were a bit over, however,.......28 yo for hair..50 yo for a crown, etc..that's steep if u ask me.

the yc rate is to high! if you ask me plus if im welling to spend 1.2m on each item. i want that item to leave the store so i can make coins back later on! i started this game in 08 on myspace so i was here when prices where 500c a yc

Zynga lost players because they lost control of the game and had no intention of getting control back. Their pricing had little to no bearing on it.
Coin hairs are awesome! Clothes should be coins too. Getting yc for the accessories was always a fair trade off. Granted, there weren't a lot in this release .. But that's where the money is. In hats and earrings and handhelds and hair and glasses. In animated and interactives and collectibles....
But they're feeling their way and getting input, so here it is!

In some cases it may as well be yc when items are 10k in store. You got a new yo joining or a broke yo, who can only afford to buy one item in a release.. thats gonna be pretty sad.

yeah maybe a bit hard for new players to buy ...

anyway, just bought this new foj female hair in AH for 600k , not sure its good price or not , but am quite happy

Today's high yc rates are also Zynga's fault. Their bad store prices made that happen. Releasing EVERY hat, EVERY handheld, EVERY hair, EVERY seating as yocash made the game stuck. A lot of players left, less people bought yc day by day, people were hardly getting enough yc to afford what they want in the first place so very little amount of them were dealing yc. That caused too many people who look for a dealer yet not enough dealers. Because of that, all those coin rich people, most of them got those by illegal ways, started to offer more and more for each yocash in order to be able to get the stuff they want. All those 2day 3day limited sales created a competition among players. Everybody needed a dealer in a very short time and whoever offered the most, got the dealers' yocash. This is the story of yc rates. Zynga ruined this game with their own hands.

When I first started yc rate was 400c to 1 and I used to have a personal dealer who used to do 300c to 1 for me. When whimsical theme was released I remember very clearly, I got all my yc items for 350c to 1.

Shortly, we badly needed a new more flexible, variable store prices already. What BVg is doing now is pure awesome and necessary.

I don't mind the pricing system, I think it's all pretty fair.

Why are people complaining about yc rates. If you want a crown for 50yc you would work hard to afford it, or jeans for 25yc. Honestly that's 75yc. 20$ is simple. Same for the new boots and shades. Work hard for it. Now the clothes are a bit overpriced. Not yocash items.

Each country received a pair of earrings both 250c not yc, and there are three pairs of shoes and three pairs of pants with just one each being YC and neither are colored for either the Canadian or US holidays. All the hairs cost the same with no favoritism shown to either male or females. Could the coin items have been cheaper, yes.. am I happy though, yes and with 4 days to go we might get more stuff.. not like they released the day before or not at all as Zynga kept doing.

I don't like the pricing. It makes absolutely NO sense to me. But, that's not saying much! lol

YC pants in 1 color while the others are coins...and not even consistently priced I may add...is just strange to me.
I'm not adverse to change...if it's logical. This to me, is not.

Seriously.. when was the last time you remember one coin hair let alone several in a row.. and blonde was the coin! OMG just no complaints here.

Well, guess I need to go back to store, I pain over 2,000 for jeans, did not see yc jeans or boots? Here I go...back shopping lol. I would buy the jeans and boots. Goes with my motorcycle. haha

Im getting used to it but still adjusting. I guess it has an intention to balance the yo-economy. The good thing we have coin and yc options. As in how cool to have coin hair and accessories

There is a solution to this. Buy your own YoCash.

The YC rate is set by your fellow players who are willing to fork over real money that you dont seem to be, and trade it for your fake coins. The whole announcing you want to to leave in a hurry so you can quickly profit off them aside, judging to be "too high" when you are not the one putting your money into the game is a bit strange.
