Weird Armor Sale On The Marketplace

Hello,
I got this info from Leonard.. He saw weird armor sale on the Marketplace..
Hi Ade, I know you still busy travel around the island.
There is a new Armour selling at the Marketplace called Heavy Padded Armor with stats of A41 D78.
Weird thing is that, it has many prices. 1 of my account show 5RP while others show 15 RP, 25RP, 35RP, 40RP and 50RP .I try to buy from the 5 RP but a popup appear saying it is for preview only.
I try 35 RP and 40 RP too same thing happen though. Not sure what Zynga is up to now?
Ok, that's weird... Let's see the screenshots one by one..
This is the first sale with 5 RPs price..


That's cheap!
Leonard was trying to buy but he got this message..


Then he saw the price of this armor on his sub accounts.. Please check on the prices..





Guess something bad happen, the price is broken... so no way to buy this item now... Not worth it anyway hehehe..
You can try to buy if you don't believe..



PS : Thanks for sharing, Leonard!

I believe we are guinea pigs - Zynga shows to tons of players an item with good stats (Heavy Padded Armor) for 5/15/25/35/45 RP and they want to see, how many times will sell this item for 5 RP, how many times for 15 RP and so on and so on...

How does this work. I have never used this sight. If I want to purchase $100 items for the $5 the special for Bangkok loot. How do I get items once paid on paypal

haha they did this right before they upped the average price from 25, to 35. Its just market research. Still way overpriced though

I was gunna post something, but Tuo Cha beat me to it. Zynga is probably not selling enough marketplace items for 35RP, and are gauging what to price future items at so that the can make more. (10 sales at 35 RP is worse than 100 sales at 5 RP, especially when it doesnt cost them anything to produce)
