How i lost 3 million gold in 3 seconds.

tedtwilliger · **Posted:** Sat Mar 31, 2007 11:57 am

OK so heres how it went

I was planning to upgrade my shield to lvl 38+3, because i had a really nice clean 38 shield and i wasnt game for upgrading it to 38+5 or more.... * yet...* ( it has a intl, high %'s and a good br)

well anyways i go out and buy 10 shield elixirs, didnt cost me much, i got 10 so i would *hopefully* have some for later....

so i also realized i needed pots for when i got out and grind... so i noted to myself *buy pots*.....

so i went to the accessory dealer in Downhag, and i went to go by myself some lucky powders for my alchemy. And as i had just currently noted to myself i needed pots.... i didnt type in "10" for the quantity, but insted i wasnt paying attention and pretended i was buying pots..... and hit "50" then enter.... then did it agian another 2 times before i realized!!@!!!!!

before i knew it i had 150 5th degree lucky powders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

AND 4 MILLION DOWN THE DRAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh but wait, there more to the story. I then teleported to jangan and went to my alchemy spot * its my alchemy spot as i did my 1st ever alchemy there and it worked without any failers, and everytime i do alchemy there it ALWAYS works without spending too many elixirs... weirdly enough *

.... so anyways i perform my alchemy... 5 shield elixirs later my shield is enhanced to what i wanted it to be. So i then noticed i still had 145 lucky powders. So i thought to myself " well... it might take me a few months, but i will stall all of these... sell them for 20k each * as they normally cost 25K " and ill make a good part of my money back.

...So before i teleported back to downhag, i decided i would sell some random junk i had in my inventory * i had some items drops from when i was grinding earlier*...

.... so as i go to sell all my junk, a really good song came on the radio... so i wasn't paying attention to what i was doing .... and before i knew it.... I HAD SOLD ALL THOSE GOD DAM LUCKY POWDERS TO THE NPC!!!!!!!!!!!!

So i ended up spending 4 million * roughly* on lucky powders... to only end up selling them all for 1 million to the dam npc.... just my luck i supose..... :banghead:

SRO better make this up for me.... im thinking.... the SRO should give me.... insane luck... for the next 150 playing hours : D

*edit: i sold them for 1 million not 3 million... dam typos *
