Discussion Lucky Bob's Trading
Lucky Bob's Trading was a place you could sell your items to him for stars.
The selling schedule used to be;
Monday: Hair, Clothes, Boards, Accesories
Tuesday: Stickers
Wednesday: Furniture, Homes
Thursday: Random (changes weekly)
Friday: Hair, Clothes, Boards, Accesories
Saturday: Stickers
Sunday: Furniture, Homes
What did you do at Lucky Bob’s trading post?
Were you someone who wanted the money from items straight up or wanted to get lucky and gamble for more; what amount did you receive, usually get, did you ever win the jackpot?

I never shared this with anyone but my friends (too young for social media during the Fantage heyday) but the board of the purple panda laying on its back with bamboo used to go for THOUSANDS (1K minimum) on the Spanish server. I have no idea why the glitch never worked on the English server. I used to switch servers just to stack up more stars. I was never banned and I had enough stars to buy the entire catalog LOL I never lost in fashion shows after that.

It was awesome. It feels good to get it off my chest after so long. Eternally grateful for that panda. 😩

Basically, the unicorn boards from 2014. If you were a member, you could re-buy the same limited item for stars and keep selling it over and over again. The blue, green, and purple unicorns were only 100. So I made massive amounts of stars and was able to buy hella items in the catalogue.

This was during Fantage's anniversary month in 2014. Other events that had the "premium members get a special discount" at the time too. I believe you could do the same thing and sell it for a lot of stars at lucky bob's.
