best friend · Mar 12, 2017 8:23 AM

Star can you send me one in a few days?

StarfireAcres · Mar 12, 2017 9:33 AM

yes sure just remind me :)

MoonAcre Stables · Mar 12, 2017 9:49 AM

Just a little tip usually straws are cheaper than live cover.

StarfireAcres · Mar 12, 2017 10:00 AM

how are straws cheaper then live cover when it takes 500hb to get the straw? ive seen a lot of players charge 500hb higher then live cover because it takes that much to collect the straw.. live cover it takes nothing to have a player breed to him

MoonAcre Stables · Mar 12, 2017 9:54 PM

Its just how it is lol. For rank specials who arent GMTd or anything I would only charge maybe 1k depending on the rank special theres a few who would be a little more and some who I'd only charge the pull fee.
Live cover costs 1000 hbs as a vet fee in addition to the stud fee.
Im not saying its how you have to do things just wanted to let you know what most people do.

StarfireAcres · Mar 13, 2017 1:20 AM

But I've seen most people charge 500hb more for straws then live cover all the time..and my horses are amazing and rare I think they are worth what I'm charging a lot of people pay what I'm asking and are very happy with the foals they get..I've seen people charge 20k just for eggs from a not special mare what I'm asking is not unreasonable and i have a few studs who are GMTed and I'm only asking 2000 per straw

MoonAcre Stables · Mar 13, 2017 10:20 PM

Like I said you dont have to do it that way. This horse isnt amazing and rare. Hes simply a stars and stripes rank special. I have at least five of them lol.
And most of us have the other rank specials too so your stallions arent rare. I didnt say you were charging too much I just said that usually the live cover fees are higher than what people charge for straws. Eggs are more expensive because flushing eggs is expensive. And no one really flushes eggs on "not special" mares. Considering it costs 125k to flush a mare.

StarfireAcres · Mar 14, 2017 1:11 AM

id understand if my horses were regular creates but they are not they are still worth 35k apiece they are special horses that's why they sell for that price and in some cases more I bought my diamond age for 250k and 400k because they are only made one time they are the rarest RS and I don't think 6000 is to much for a straw from one of them people are selling live stud fee for 10k in sales from their diamond age stud but I don't see you confronting them about it and loosing stud fees and straws sales for them in their forums. Ammit told me I can price my studs for however much I wanted

MoonAcre Stables · Mar 14, 2017 7:40 AM

I have said numerous times that I'm not telling you your prices are too expensive I never once said that. You can price them however you want I also said that more than once.
It was your decision to buy those horses for those prices. Just because buying a rank special sometimes costs a decent amount of money doesnt mean they are rare. It just means theyre a rank special and people want them and its just how the game economy works. There are over 130 Diamond Age horses in the game.
Yes they were a one time thing but the genes they have are not expensive or rare. Im just trying to help you understand that spending tons of money on these horses doesnt make them rare. Nothing about their stud fees being too expensive.

StarfireAcres · Mar 14, 2017 12:55 PM

But I did ask Ammit on witch RS horse was the rarest and she said Diamond Age and just because there are 130 diamond age horses in the whole game (by the way that's not very much) meaning there are 5million horses in the game. And meaning they are that rare they are very very hard to get and expensive.

kassierae · Mar 14, 2017 1:17 PM

I paid 2500 and 50k for my diamond age horses.

StarfireAcres · Mar 14, 2017 1:42 PM

Seriously wow lucky you mine I paid a ton for 4 that I got :(

kassierae · Mar 14, 2017 2:01 PM

Just goes to show, a horse is only worth what someone will pay for it. They don't really have any special genes or anything. We all like rank specials, of course. But usually they aren't much different than a perfect foundation or an exceptional producer/exceptionally perfect.

StarfireAcres · Mar 14, 2017 2:43 PM

I still don't think they are like one of those creates I think you just got lucky

kassierae · Mar 14, 2017 3:00 PM

As far as breeding ability, they are. Ammit has said so herself.

StarfireAcres · Mar 14, 2017 4:19 PM

I'm not talking about breeding ability RS Horses are way more special then a normal create that's why they sell for so much in sales there is a bunch of RS for sale in sales for 50k a normal create is only worth 2500 RS are worth that much because they are special and the diamond age was only created one time. I guarantee you would not sell your diamond age RS for what you bought them for because they are worth more then you paid if you were to put your diamond age in sales you could get 100k for it I guarantee it! Now if they are not worth that then why are a bunch of people paying that?

kassierae · Mar 14, 2017 5:07 PM

Well, I don't sell my two because they fit in with my breeding programs. If I didn't have a use for them, I would happily sell them.

MoonAcre Stables · Mar 15, 2017 12:03 AM

5 million horses on hj1. Not here.
Anyway, I think its time for me to leave this conversation lol

Senlac · Mar 23, 2017 3:36 AM

Can I have a straw please?

Rhythm Falls · Mar 23, 2017 12:21 PM

RS horses are just normal creates, but with select genes. None of those genes are special or rare, except maybe Freaky Fridays because of the double frame. Blackest Night is a PF horse, but always black and mosaic. Silver Pocket Watch horses are just PFs that are hom black, silver, and splash. You can get that in a random normal create if you are lucky enough. The only thing that makes them special is knowing exactly what you are getting, and they have cool names and poems :).

Most RS horses sell below 20k anyway, unless they are mosaic. Mosaic is just about the only thing that makes some of them special.

StarfireAcres · Mar 23, 2017 1:30 PM

well in my experience RS horses prices vary ive seen silver pocket watch horses in sales for 50k

Denalidom · Mar 23, 2017 9:00 PM

Personally, the ones I value more have a certain combination of genes in addition to the RS genes. Silver Pocket Watch for example - if they have two kit genes (kit20, kitr) and/or SstySsty they'll fit into my KP/liver breeding program and I'm much more likely to buy.

Excluding gifts, horses from Cheers, and one extreme outlier (special case), I have purchased 31 RS horses for an average of 8,260 hbs. If you watch the auctions and sales boards at the right times they're not hard to pick up relatively inexpensively. Do bear in mind it does vary somewhat based on type, and I don't buy much of anything for over 25k regardless of what it is.
