I just don't buy unreleased items with my coins.
Sorry you feel so slighted though.

1. Trading in unreleased items always came with risk. I know it, you know it, we all know it. And this release is NOT without precedent. Zynga released the VIP jackets years ago and the same thing happened. It's the risk you took. I own a Celtic Cross and I very much suspect it's going to be released too. Too bad, so sad. I won't complain. The only reason I'm not unloading it now is because, to quote the Dude, it ties the room together.

2. Your Menorah Hat is no more or less than it was before. You didn't lose anything if you truly bought it because you liked it and wanted to wear it. You can still do that. And you got to do that for a very long time before today as well.

3. The most precious and valuable thing you or any other Yo has isn't for sale in the store nor is it "unreleased". It's on your Buddy List, it's in your memories and it's there in the friendships you have made.

Not sure if that helps you, but that is how I truly feel.

I don't understand how you can complain that people have gotten greedy while at the same time complaining that your hat is worth nothing now. It's a bit of a contradiction. I started in early '09 and even if I had that hat I couldn't care less that it's been released. Zynga failed by not doing this a long time ago. That is why the game tanked under their ownership. BVG is making it easier for new players because we need new players for the game to thrive and for them to profit, which will keep the game going.

I'm curious. I really am - serious question. Why did you expend so much effort to obtain the Menorah hat? Did you just really love it? Cause I could see myself doing that with the bird's nest hat - I really love it. So, I'm curious about your reasoning.
