Webkinz is becoming more and more like a huge multiplayer online game for kids.
The latest new thing to Webkinz, the Webkinz Estore proves it.
A special shop now exists for the popular children and normal gamer’s virtual Webkinz.
Players can visit the Webkinz eStore and purchase furniture and clothing for their characters - for a greedy price.
You see, unlike most multiplayer games, the items in the Webkinz eStore are extremely expensive.
Ridiculous.
The rocket and picnic basket “Super Beds” both cost $9. Other costly items include a $8 pool, $7 waterfall or suit of armor or 2 $6 modular sofa packs. Players can purchase a train set, fridge or stove for $5.
The cheapest item is a $4 chair, but it may just be the most costly item of all!
Even though Ganz just emailing you a code for the items you’ve purchased, after you give your credit card information, there is a minimum order of $5.
So if someone just wanted to buy the $4 chair, they couldn't’!?
They would have to either buy two chairs, or a chair and another item, to break the $5 minimum...
And it doesn't even include taxes in there....
Strangely, Items purchased from the Webkinz eStore can’t be sent to another players as a gift (through the Kinzpost), can’t be traded to another player (at the Trading Post) or sold back in game (at the W Shop).
So Ganz can accept parents’ money for items, but will only allow the items purchased to be used in certain ways. Very nice. Very mature.
Other websites like Webkinz, the extra items you can buy are around 50-70 cents each. And there is no minimum amout of money you have to spend to get your items, unlike Ganz $5 minimum..
And, Webkinz, just won't stop into pressuring you into buying these cool new items. They say they are "super" rare, but WE, know they are just another rip off!
I'm not writing this to make you hate Webkinz, I'm informing you with some information, so You don't get ripped off.
