    I can see you your listings for 100 chickens. All markets are slightly different. The chicken market is very competitive on our market. I have a chickdn named One-Two the chicken (after 12ss12). One-Two the chicken currently is number 2 in the farmer_broke barn with 316,888 more friends.

    Question. How much would you pay for about 550,000 bears? And why?

    I only sell in the market for the money I need. Unfortunately, I am not at a level to solve the competition in the market right now. I don't own too many products. That's why I can't offer very high volumes of sales. and 550,000 bears, that's too much for me. I don't know what to do with all these bears. I can't pay for it :Do_O

    Now I want to know how much you would pay for 629,000 bears?
    So you would not buy any bear?

    Dear @farmer_broke of course I can buy bears but I don't know what to do with so many bears. I'm just very surprised by your question. I wonder if I misunderstood what you wanted to ask because I'm a beginner? I currently have 104 bears in my barn. Is there something I don't know about bears? :D

    I'm so sorry but again I can't give a great answer to your question. I see that the lowest price in my market right now is 30,834.39.
    for 629k bears= I would give 18 million at most .. Umm .. I don't know how smart :p

    I think you understand. Now I need a price for 729,000 bears. How much?

    Maybe I should ask this question another way: How much would you want for each bear? You hold now 729,000.

    My calculator outputs 15,309,000,000 accounts for the month 729,000
    21,000 for each bear :)

    How do you think?

    @Bisquitte
    Today, I feel sure a farmer will not sell the 729,000 bears at 21,000 ccs.
    I am like you think what would I do with them?

    I must have some idea who I would be selling to. That many bears!

    One can only sell so much in a day.

    How much is too much to pay for them?

    I even make Eonn wait a while when buying seeds now. Getting smarter and asking price is rising.

    I will tell you the details of those bears later. Now there are about 829,000 bears to do something with.

    (and they are held by a baby farm. This is very real.)

    You are great! But I'm really a novice in market and prices. I really wonder what you're going to do with them. I would be very happy if you could guide me sometimes about the market. I'm a farmer with small daily sales :)

    The only thing I made a profit in the market was selling gold donkeys. It's out of the box. And I sold it for 200 million :D Isn't that great for a beginner? How about Broke? ;)

    Congratulations. My next concern would be: Now what am I going to do with the 200 million?

    I'm completing co-op missions. I saved stars and field silver from these missions. I unlocked Howie Donut with 400 stars. I also unlocked the crystal waterfalls with the field coins. The fruit market helped me raise money for the field. I bought fruit from the market. and I'm still trying to sell some things daily and keep my money at a certain level. I would be very grateful if you have any advice for me. ;)

    Try and make a profit by continuously staying in the lettuce market. I would not go out of my way and grow lettuce at this time. Playing the lettuce market is a cheap way to help learn selling in a farmerama market. Few will try the lettuce market. But they will take a risk selling a breeding donkey for 200 million. Sound familiar. Or they will try and sell Angles trumpets. I see you trying. Buying and selling lettuce is not great fun to me. But, it sure is a cheap way of learning especially about price and quantity.

    Now how may I get 200 billion ccs quick?

    Yeah Broke I'll listen to you and evaluate the lettuce. Do you know? Lettuce will be worth more when we start raising the turtle. Now my activity is over. Cloud queue received. I can harvest lettuce when my field is empty and I have a harvester. You are a farmer friend I can trust. Thank you so much for the advice you gave me. ;)

    Yes, learn the game. I see you are learning what the crops are used for.

    I do not recommend you grow lettuce. Do as you wish.

    Try buying low offers of lettuce and reselling. Careful. The market moves slowly for long periods. Patience is required. You will probably get greedy. You will ask too much for the wrong quantity. And, you will get the lettuce back in your barn. I one continues ip;laying the market the one will get items back.

    nnnnnnnnnow about the bears,

    A baby farm holds the bears. It bought them in lots of 9.999. It holds 830,000 bears.
    I don't know what to do with them.
    Guess what it paid for each bear? ....... ready? 2,000 ccs each and no more.
    The farmer selling them is a TOP 10 farmer. All I care about is what I paid for them.

    Yes, I will breed them. The only thing the farm is milling is power feed. It would take me forever to breed all those bears. BP is not pushing the bears directly ..... yet. I cannot even buy the tree fruit to mill the bear feed at that price.

    But the problem of that player selling them is similar to mine. Sure, I could sell one or a few at your price, maybe. But not 790,000

    Anybody want them? ALL. Fine, give me 6,600 ccs each and you may have them all. Like the seeds, I'll take a little profit and give the problem to someone else.

    Sometimes you will see something. Justify buying to yourself. You may even have to hold them a while. Then act. AND, there is always the possibility you are wrong in what you see.

    But I want 200 billion with the farmer_broke farm ....... and then spend it all and go back to exactly -0- ccs. How do I do it?

    I've presented some sales to the market now. There are now exactly 118,800,681 cc. I don't know how much I will earn from sales. As I said, I profited from the golden donkey. and i hold some cc. I'm not interested in bears :D I hope you make the most of them. There's a treasure at the baby farm when I think about it. I'm sure you will use it very wisely.

    This is the farmer_broke baby farm which hold 829,999 bears now. It bought them at 2,000 each all but 4. You doo not care for bears and we don't know what exactly to do with them. This farm is on market 15. This farm was added to join my log time strategy buddy Ajjg1966 and now known as Mooboy.

    We do not care about bears but we do care about ccs.
    This farm invested in over 1,200,000 wheat too. It appears tgey may now be sold for a profit.

    One must learn the game and consider its changes.

    Pheromones were not saleable at one time. Then they became saleable. There were no deluxe pheromones. The farmer_broke farm saw something. It would not pay 35 ccs for a pheromone. But the farm bought over 1,000,000 pheromones. I told our friends in this forum. Some took it seriously and some did not. The farmer_broke farm dumped those pheromones at just shy of 800 ccs each. It held for itself about 100,000 for later. But the profit was astronomical.

    Just wild listing will only wind up with items being returned to your barn.

    I definitely care about ccs :D Because I have so many missions I want to complete. After the sales I put on the market yesterday, my money today is 152.011.058 << I'm slowly gaining. I can make wrong moves as I am a newbie to the market. I'm trying to learn now. I am waiting for the day when the turtle will be raised to make a nice profit. I hope I can earn as I planned.

    I'm trying to sell without depleting my stock too much. Unfortunately I don't have thousands in stock. maybe in time ;)

    Buy low and sell high. You don't need to have a stock to sell and make CCs. Just wait for low offers of sale. Buy them and when price rises sell for profit. But be careful of what you buy. Because it should sell. So find out what is in demand and market it. Also there is something like peak marketing time. For example today we will have weekend breeding event. It will require chameleons. So chameleon prices will be high as soon as the event starts after few hours it will stabilize. Selling during first few hours will earn you more CCs than selling tomorrow, even though the event will be running.

    Its a learning through trial and error process.

    It was broke who taught be marketing and I think now I have picked up a little bit (Thanks to him). Although not like him. Now he has you as a prodigy. ;) All the best in learning & marketing ! :)

    That need of chameleons is known over a week, so the peak won't be so high as it would be with "new" FAQ. I recommend always to read Event FAQs, it causes a peak. Everybody rushes to buy what they need, market is soon empty of that item, new offers will be higher. It is time for small seller, who sells small lots, which suits to event.

    Yes. What you say is also true. But there are many players who check their barn for required items only when the event starts. So there will be some peak as soon as the event goes live. And our offers of sale will be snatched up fast. There is also another aspect. chameleons are not rare animals. That's why the rush might not be great as in some wonder stable animals, if they are required. I was just using it as a example. The other times when there is a peak apart from release of FAQ & start of an event is when an event ends. We might make some efforts to sell at that time too. But there are many factors affecting the peak like what are the Event rewards associated with required items, growing time, feed ingredients, etc.,They too decide the rise in price and rate of sale. All the peaks might not be same. Some times the price will be high before the start of the event when players hoard a lot. Sometimes at various points during the event like in 2 out o f 3 events. 2 out of 3 events require a lot of barn items and its not possible to keep track of everything. In such events, the price of tree fruits are usually high at a particular time. Like if it is required in the first task, then the peak will be for first 1 or 2 days. There are many factors influencing. I am still learning them. I do not know everything yet.
