So, I saw that they changed the bandanna and made it untradeable. So I was curious, can we use the Karma scissors on them? I'm pretty pissed, I payed near 100mil for mine about a year ago, and now I can't give it to my other characters. So yeah, can we Karma them? Thanks in advance guys, I haven't played in over 6 months.

yeah, they are completely untradable, for absolutely no reason. And it makes no sense that only the 06 red ones are untradable, while every other maple bandana from 06 or 07 are tradable. even the 06 blue ones can be traded. I have mine, but it is stuck on a noob char I dont play. I actually earned mine from the event, and have always been quite annoyed I can no longer use it or show it off.

Nope, the PSok are mainly for the new neo items It would say when we hover over our bandana if we can use a SoK or a PSoK

Also, for those of you who are asking why they changed only the red 06 bandana, I think it was because many players were using them as currency almost like white scrolls except their price always inflated. They were a rare but accessible item back then which is why Nexon had to do it.

I heard people were duping them like crazy. Probably highly unlikely, but that's what I heard from quite a few people. I mean, why not dupe things much more expensive then that right?

winterfresh is correct, people were abusing the fact that they used to sell for hundreds of mil each, they were like white scrolls i know my cousin bought a whole bunch of them from scania, transfered of khaini, and sold them all :O kinda silly IMO, but people do these kinds of things blue is TOO rare (did you know duschi has 2 of them? >;o) and white and yellow are useless @above aww, sucks for you i got this when some guy gave me the aniversary box when i helped him with something got the dana from that :D
