I saw this FM scam in Windia where a girl was trying to sell "Green Wishing Tickets" for ridiculously high prices. On the other side of the FM, was a guy saying he'll trade a 21atk BWG for a Green Wishing Ticket. Yeah right. So just to warn people if this ever happens again, do not fall for it.

[/quote] They're taking an un-common item such as the green card wish thingie and make others believe it's worth as much as a 21 attack BWG, therefore the others who think it's worth a 21 attack BWG would buy it for a price that is much less than the actual price of a 21 attack BWG.

[/quote] sorry I don't exactly follow. So if I gave them a ticket (that everyone above says is useless) for the bwg, doesn't that mean I win and he ripped himself off? Hmm p/c wishing ticket?

[/quote] The person with the BWG doesn't give you his BWG, he says he'd trade it for a BWG to get you tempted thinking it's worth a 21 attack BWG so you go buy the green wish ticket from the person selling it for way too much (But not higher than the price of a 21 attack BWG (obviously...)) because you think you can sell it for the other guy who's willing to trade it for a 21 att BWG. He doesn't really give u his BWG for the wishing card, that's the scam.

Oh I see. They're screwing over the prices and people who feel it's a good deal.
